Joe Allen opened his restaurant in New York’s Theatre District in 1965 and the combination of a great location, informal environment and quality food made it an instant hit with the theatre community as well as theatre-goers.
In January 1977 Joe Allen opened in London and has become a legendary theatre restaurant, often frequented by members of the Noël Coward Society and other notables. It has a great buzz, a relaxed atmosphere and a long bar where you would expect to find a lovely Hepburn/ Golightly figure, with cocktail and cigarette holder. The resident pianist, Jimmy, has been playing there for years and has perfected many Coward numbers. The restaurant is a very short walk away from the theatre.
Forty places have been reserved for the supper, which is optional and can be paid for on the night. We shall be seated at tables of ten people and as the restaurant can only take one payment for each group of ten people, one person at each table should be the banker. It might be helpful to bring cash. Please see the website for sample menus.
Tickets and supper places will be reserved on a first come, first served basis. Theatre tickets will be distributed in the foyer on the day from 2 p.m. Please complete the enclosed Booking Form and send it to me as soon as possible, or telephone your debit or credit card details.
