Bar Service

There are two bars in the front of house areas:

The Lord Attenborough Bar on the dress circle level, where you can also find the coffee bar and merchandise kiosk, and the Bourne Bar by the entrance to the stalls level. 

Please note they operate a Responsible Alcohol Selling Policy and will not serve alcoholic drinks to anyone who appears drunk.  Please respect the performers, theatre staff and fellow audience members by moderating drinking and behaviour whilst in the venue.

You can pre-order interval drinks either by the Click & Collect portal or at the bar before the performance starts.

Alcoholic drinks and hot food purchased outside of the venue are not permitted to be consumed on the premises.

All drinks are served in reusable plastic glasses, including champagne.  There are blue collection bins at points around the theatre where you can deposit used glasses so that the theatre can reuse and recycle. Please do not bin them and don't take it home!

Ice Creams

Criterion ice creams are available before the performance from the bars and in the interval from the bars and trays.
