Nice casual place for good meals, snacks and drinks before a play. Try sitting in the room at back as the main room can be noisy for conversations.
Great bistro food within a theatre showing modern and innovative productions. Perfect spot for pre-theatre eating with great sharing platters and some well executed bigger dishes. Ideal for an early dinner and drink.
Love this place, once spent an entire summer here. Great food, excellent drinks and coffee and comfy armchairs to boot. Can get very loud and busy pre-show and not a bad place to chat to writers and actors. Expect to see some famous faces every now and then.
Nice bar and kitchen below the Royal Court theatre. It was very busy before a show so definitely book ahead. There's a really decent drinks range for every taste at usual London prices. The food, considering the limited time the kitchen is open is good, mostly plant based. I went for a few small plates (3 for £13 or so) which were a perfect pre-theatre snack between two.
The service is quick, efficient and friendly. Even if you're not visiting the theatre here it's well worth a visit as it has a great atmosphere...just check the limited opening times.
Cold good beer and that's the most important thing
This venue is great and the bar is way nicer than any other theatre bar so great to stay for a drink after the show.
The food and drink menu are small, but manageable. Everything I had the opportunity to taste was excellent. This, coupled with a spacious industrial bar/dining room and a very relaxed atmosphere, is more than many other bars have to offer. I was just about ready to move in!
Brilliant theatre at the top of Sloanne Square ... an absolute asset for the local community and for smaller acts to showcase and perform their drills in front of a very discerning crowd
So many of the shows at the Royal Court go on to West End and Broadway runs, which tells you everything you need to know about the quality of the writing and production. There's actually two theatres - the main one and a then a smaller upstairs theatre, and I've never had a bad seat in either. Tickets are relatively cheap, with lots of seats for just £10. It has a nice downstairs bar, but be warned, it is a signal dead zone!
Functional venue. Staff a little slow, but friendly enough. Ok prices.
Who knew the Bar had so much space? The pilared room extends all the way under the pavement and road to another (unused) staircase leading down from the traffic island/central square. Prompt service, of our coffees at the bar, and plenty of seating. Will definitely use it again.
A great little spot in the basement of the multiple level venue, a bit pricey but theatres are as a rule. Enthusiastic staff all very bright an welcoming, I saw my daughter's play there 'Superhoe', parking is not good take the underground there if possible. Parking on Sloane street is a good idea after 18.30pm and is free on a SINGLE yellow line(very important you get this right). My daughter Nicole Lecky's play was a great success.
Huge cavernous basement cafe with plenty of seating serving hot food as well as coffee & cakes.
I went to the Royal Court to see the wonderful Andrew Scott perform in Birdland. The staff were extremely helpful when I called to change my tickets to another date as I had accidentally booked them a week earlier than I meant to.
The more stage shows I see the more fascinated I am by how each production uses the stage area and with Birdland there was no exception. A lot of the action took place on those six lit up chairs that you can see with the actors not taking part in that particular scene facing away from the audience or dimmed by light. The stage is also surrounded by a moat of water which plays an interesting part towards the end as well. It gets more chaotic as the play progresses which is of course symbolism of Paul’s own mindset.
