Harden's survey result
Summary
“One of the better pre-theatre places in Stratford” – this smart, two-floor, former clothes shop is barely a three-minute walk from the RSC. Even a reporter who felt the food was “nothing special” says “everything turned out well for a pleasant evening”.
Summary
In the “epicentre of restaurants for the hungry tourist or theatregoer”, this ex-clothes shop “deserves your serious consideration”, say fans. There were also reports of “average” or “poor value” food this year, but those “habitually choosing the pre-theatre set menu before a visit to the RSC” seem to find it “well cooked and attractively presented”.
Summary
On two floors of a former city-centre clothes shop, this “very popular” five-year-old has an “ambience that varies depending on the room” and wins nothing but praise for its “lovely and reasonably priced food” from a large and versatile menu incorporating sharing plates and char-grilled steaks.
