About Us
The National is our neighborhood cafe and takeaway, the newest addition to the Walker's Point neighborhood revival. The space is fresh, the food is flavorful, and the staff really loves what they do. In warmer months, we offer an urban getaway backyard patio. When it comes to food, The National is all about flavor. Nearly everything is made from scratch and given our culinary staff's special treatment, from mango ketchup to strained, ginger infused honey yogurt, from housemade black olive hummus to the olive tapenade in the Italian melt. Expect flavor, and expect something you've never tasted before.
