An evening out to the theatre would not be complete without a delicious dinner before the show. Pre-theatre meals and dinner packages are a great way to get a guaranteed reservation at a restaurant that may otherwise be booked out. Also as the restaurant know you are there as part of a package, they will make sure you are served and have finished in time to get to the theatre.
Unlike some other cities, London doesn’t have many theatres that offer dinner while you watch a theatre show. One notable exception is London’s Comedy Store, where you can eat while the comedians on stage mercilessly make fun of audience members in a variety of improvisational shows and top class stand-up comedy featuring some of the biggest names in the UK.
The theatre meal deals mentioned include a two to three course meal before the show at a restaurant close by to the theatre. Many different types of cuisine are on offer from Indian to Thai to Modern European cuisine and the value of the three course meal combined with the top priced theatre ticket is unbeatable. Pre-theatre meals are an excellent opportunity to be more organised, save time and best of all save money.
