Harden's survey result
Summary
Stick to the good-value, meal-with-ticket deals at the theatre restaurant of this converted Victorian chocolate factory, whose food is “honest” but rather “hit and miss”, hence “not good enough to pay full stand-alone prices” – especially with foodie Borough Market just across the road.

Summary
Book early for the meal-with-ticket deal at this theatre-restaurant in a converted Victorian chocolate factory opposite Borough Market: “they are such good value that they sell out early and are hard to come by”. If you miss the deal, think again: there are “plenty of more attractive pre-theatre options nearby”.
Summary
“The meal deal tickets combining show and dinner are good value (if hard to book)” at this theatre café in a Victorian former chocolate factory. If you can’t get the package however maybe hold off – “with foodie Borough Market just over the road there are plenty of other nicer options nearby”.
For 30 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).
