Upstairs the art deco Circle bar is often open and is a great place to spy on the ebb and flow of Beaumont Street and admire its Georgian architecture from the comfort of a large leather couch. The sheer pleasure of a date spent at the Playhouse could be the result of its beautiful location; the spot is close to where Henry I located his Beaumont Palace and Richard the Lionheart was born. But it is more likely the excellent five star service of the caring staff for whom nothing is too much trouble is the reason the place makes you relax. Patrons are afforded a complimentary glass of iced water from the jug at the bar, the WC's downstairs are always immaculate and the regularly up-dated crop of leaflets covering every local event you could think of is a great ice breaker. The experienced front of house team certainly run a tight ship in this highly successful theatre and deliver the little touches that make a huge difference. Pose before you go with this weeks theatre programme, a dish of olives or roasted nuts (£3) and a glass of red wine, keeping an eye out for any star of stage and screen who may well be passing.
