"It's a beautiful setting. Seats very close together, though, and could have been more comfortable. After 5 shows over 3 days, the seating felt a little hard. Performances were excellent."
"Nice theatre. However, the bathrooms are disgusting and need a serious upgrade so that aven basic flushing of waste is possible."
"This place is great to view a band BUT. The 2 servers that are behind the bar upstairs are in the wrong game. In particular the girl with the green in her hair has one of the poorest attitudes towards customers I've witnessed. Every person from my table and others that came back with a drink asked me if I was unfortunate enough to be served by her. They all commented the night was tarnished by the bar service. If you hate your job, find another away from customer service. Don't bring the venue down with you."
"Watched Chris Connor Elvis show at this venue. What a pleasant surprise. The show itself was great as was expected. The venue is a gem. Staff are very friendly and this end of High Street has a lot to offer. Will definitely go back for more events."
"We were very lucky to find a parking spot close by. The venue's seating leaves no good impression...ordinary flimsy, dirty chairs that has seen better days! Some chairs has bent legs that could snap anytime! The inside of theatre was pretty and there is at least a lift to the first floor BUT ladies toilets still has a few steps to climb!"
