We love welcoming our guests and providing a memorable experience. During interval, we invite you to indulge in our selection of delicious artisan ice cream or refreshing drinks, available for purchase in our café, which is also open during the day. We’re excited to offer our Front of House spaces to members of the public every Tuesday to Saturday, from 10am to 2pm, as well as before and during all performances.
Our café proudly serves locally sourced, organic, and clean roasted coffee from Owens Coffee, along with sweet treats from South West-based Cakesmiths Artisan Bakery, and a growing range of savoury items like Paninis and Toasties.
