It’s not cheap but in line with all theatres to be fairGreat venue, just a shame they take your eyes out for a drink
Great venue, just a shame they take your eyes out for a drink
And yet the Peacock is often shut midweek, even with the Empire having a show on. The theatre goers are probably well catered for now with the Engine Room, Dun Cow and bars over the road, plus Low Row. Not sure I'd be adding another pub round there, but I agree the area is vastly improved.It’s a fantastic venue , better than the theatre royal (which is great also ).
If I was opening an old traditional type pub or a restaurant that is the area I would be looking , would get footfall almost every night not just Fri/sat
I don’t mind paying a premium for a drink in a venue like the Empire, I just wish they had a decent selection. Nowt worse than paying over the odds for crap grog.
