Reviews
"Great coffee and home made cakes and savoury items. Nice space with changing art exhibitions. Very friendly staff and a small shop selling locally sourced merchandise. Various activities and classes take place here. Still trading after everything in recent years. Space has been improved and provides a vital warm space in these stressful times. Always a warm welcome."
"I've performed my music here a few times now and I love it. One of the most interesting spaces with great acoustics. Looking forward to coming back on another tour next year!"
"The Vault - my son recently attended a fab birthday party held in the Vault, a high spec gaming zone for up to 8 players. A fun time, with nice people, great support, and good food. A great addition to the town."
"I love it at The Bank Arts Centre. Art classes and workshops, great coffee and light refreshments during the day and a good mix of events in the evening. The Waveney Valley Folk Collective meet the second Thursday of each month for their open floor night which is a great showcase of local folk musicians. Life drawing classes during the day and again in the evening on Tuesdays. Pottery in he daytime on Thursday. Rolling art exhibitions."
