DOG AND CHILD-FRIENDLY SPACE OPEN DURING THE DAY WEDS – SAT FROM 25 OCTOBER FOR LUNCH, LIGHT BITES, TEAS, AND COFFEES

FREE CUPPA WITH PURCHASES UNTIL 4 NOVEMBER TO CELEBRATE OPENING

From Wednesday 25 October, The Watermill Theatre will be opening their Riverside Bar and Restaurant during the day and launching a new Café menu, available every Wednesday – Saturday from 10.30am – 3.30pm, for lunch, light bites, teas, coffees and more.

Claire Murray from The Watermill said, “Whether you’re catching up with friends, grabbing a snack for you and your children after feeding the ducks, or looking for somewhere to work from home away from home, drop by and we can whip something up just for you!

And to celebrate our Café opening, have a cuppa on us with any purchase of £3.75 or more between 25 October and 4 November – we can’t wait to see you there!”

The Cafe Bar is dog-friendly and there will be a children’s toy and book corner (plus high-chairs, baby changing and children’s food options), plus free parking and free WiFi.

A sample menu for what will be on offer in the Café can be seen here.  

During the run of The Wizard of Oz (playing at the theatre 17 November to 31 December, tickets on sale now here), the café menu will take on a new festive flavour, with specials on offer for evening pre-show dining.

For those looking for the perfect place to host a festive party, groups of 10 or more can book a 2-course lunch at £27.50pp or 3-course dinner at £32.50pp, with exclusive hire available for groups of 40.

An early bird discount is available for bookings reserved by 31 October with menus and more information here.

Claire continues, “We’re thrilled to be expanding our food and drink offering to our wonderful patrons during the day, and we’re looking forward to a fabulous festive season!”
