The Show
- What is the dress code?
- The Medieval Banquet does not have a dress code. The majority of guests wear
smart casual. We also have medieval costumes you can hire on arrival.
- Your web site says that doors open at 7.15pm yet the show only begins at
8.15pm — what is there to do in between?
- As a theatrical experience, at 8:15 the performers will have taken to the
stage. By this point it is advisable for guests to be in their seats although we
do provide for late entry. You may wish to come early to take advantage of our
well stocked bar or to hire out a medieval costume or simply mingle with the
other guests.
- When does the show end?
- The entertaining and feasting ends at approximately 10.30pm and we stay open
till 11:30pm. The bar is open and there is music and dancing and you can meet
with the cast.
- What happens if I need to leave my seat or any reason?
- Unlike the theatre, you are not confined to your seat and feel free to move
around. You may need to make a call, go to the toilet, or just fancy a chat at
the bar. Our only restrictions apply when the specialty acts are performing. You
cannot (other than in an emergency) get up during these 15 minute slots. If you
choose to leave your seat prior to the act, you will not be ble to get back to
your seat until that segment is finished. This is a health and safetly point.
You will have to sit or stand the remaining time wherever you happen to be.
However, from there you will be able to see the act nearest.
- Do I have to join in?
- The simple answer is no. This is an interactive experience, but how much you
wish to participate is totally up to you! There will be many opportunities to
dress up, dance with the cast, sing, hit your fists on your plate and cry for
your wench to bring you more food or drink.
- Can I take photographs?
- You are welcome to take photographs.
