Food & Drink

Whether you’re joining us for a matinee, an evening performance, or simply stopping by during the day, our Café and Bar offer the perfect way to make your visit even more enjoyable.

 

The Café

Open throughout the day, our café serves homemade, wholesome food, made with delicious fresh ingredients. From hearty breakfasts and light lunches to delicious cakes and snacks, there’s something for everyone to enjoy.

In the evenings, the café transforms into a relaxed dining space offering pre-theatre meals from 5.30pm – ideal for those who like to dine before the show. Whether you’re looking for a quick bite or a leisurely meal, our friendly team will make sure you’re well looked after.

Menus for our evening meals change for each production and offer a different selection of homecooked foods to our daytime offering.

Our Bar is the perfect place to unwind with friends and family, whether it’s a daytime catch-up or a pre-show drink. The bar is open daily from 12.00-2.00pm, and again from 5.30pm on show days.
