I visited to see a workshop production of 13 Going On 30 The Musical! It's a lovely little hidden gem of a theatre. There is a bar/cafe that serves drinks and snacks as well as some hot food options like sausage rolls and sandwiches, with vegan options.

Excellent
The foyer had step free access from the street via a ramp. All performance spaces have step free access as do the bathrooms. There is a bar/cafe that also has step free access and there is seating dotted around. There is no lowered counter section at the bar for wheelchair users. The box office is located in the foyer directly opposite the main doors and the whole desk is at a lower level meaning it is functional for those seated or standing.

Good
Parking is fairly average for London, blue badge holders can park for an unlimited time without charge in pay and display parking bays, and there are plenty of these on the roads surrounding the theatre.

There is an accessible bathroom on the ground floor, the corner and hallway are a little tight for manoeuvring. There is also a ladies bathroom and then an 'all-gender' bathroom.

Excellent
Staff were really lovely, they took the time to answer all my questions and explain the physical accessibility of the building. They were lovely during a medical episode, offering their help but also respecting when we didn't need help and giving us space to handle the situation.
Additional Information
There was hand sanitiser dotted around the building.
