The Jill Dando Cafe/Bar
The Jill Dando Cafe/Bar was opened in January 2011 by Nigel Dando, Jill Dando's brother, in memory of Jill Dando.
Jill Dando Cafe
The light and airy cafe is a relaxing meeting place for morning coffee with friends or a light lunch with colleagues. It has a friendly and welcoming atmosphere with specials of its homemade cakes and soups. Open in the daytime the cafe is run by the Brandon Trust charity who produce high quality customer service and produce for all. Please see our cafe menu below.
During evening performances at the theatre the cafe is transformed into the theatre bar. Come and have a pre-performance drink in the bar with friends that is open for an hour before performances. Pre-order your drinks so that you do not need to wait during the interval. Make the most of your evening at the theatre.

Theatre Bar
The Theatre Bar is where you can enjoy pre-theatre and interval drinks. The bar does get quite busy - so we'd always recommend you pre-order your interval drinks when you arrive.
Our bar is open one hour before curtain-up until the end of the interval and offer a wide variety of drinks.
