I’m here for two weeks on a show. (01/04/24-14/04/2024). On our first day we were welcomed by and introduced to the whole staff, who were and have since been the most kind, welcoming and accommodating team. The theatre space is a dream. Backstage is comfortable. The theatre bar has some amazing IPAs on tap (and some cocktails that I’ve yet to sample). They also do amazing coffee here, and cakes. And again, the staff are amazing. Also, they have a Pieminster, and oh my goodness it’s unreal. I’m a Veggie, I had some Goats Cheese and Red Onion And Sweet Potato affair and it was truly delicious. I’ve still got a week left here and I’m going to be sad to leave.

Great old theatre. First visit and definitely will return. Lots of history and a fab space. Gorgeous pie and mash before the performance makes it even better!

The Old Vic in Bristol is truly remarkable—a distinctive theater worth experiencing. One of a kind. However, I do wish they possessed the skill to craft a perfect mulled wine. I'd be delighted to share my secret recipe in exchange for the right reward. 😉 ❤️

A beautiful theatre with a rather majestic interior, offering a variety of performances to suit most ages and cultural desires, such as Zog, Hamlet and Wonderboy. The recent interpretation of Kafka's The Metamorphosis used the stage, lighting and music to great effect, transfixing the audience in the unraveling of Gregor Samsa. The seats themselves are comfortable though not designed for those with longer legs. The bar offers a wide range of soft, cold and hot drinks as well as alcoholic beverages alongside crisps, ice-cream, pastries and pies. During the interval, staff work quickly, though not always effectively, to serve. The theatre is approximately 15 mins easy walk from the train station. Probably worth travelling by train or bus as parking near the theatre is sparse and very expensive. Overall, a great experience, good value for money and definitely worth visiting again.

The theatre is shaped in such a way to amplify sound. It's roomy and pretty comfortable. We went to see treasure island, it was more suited to children but the overall construct of the place was easily accessible
