No.1 Shakespeare Street

No.1 Shakespeare Street is on the site of the old motor museum so is easy to find. The interior is spacious and airy and combines comfort with style in a relaxed environment. It has been designed to make the most of the original features and yet give a modern feel at the same time. The atmosphere is warm and friendly.

The restaurant offers an extensive menu of starters, vegetarian options and an A La Carte menu but also boasts a tempting selection of cuts of meat and fish. You simply choose a Cut such as Sirloin Steak or Swordfish or even Shark and then you  have a mouth-watering choice of 13 sauces, 8 side dishes, 5 potato dishes and 6 dips all included in the price of the Cut. The beauty of this is that the possibilities are virtually endless - even if you chose the same cut of meat on a number of occasions, you could still have a totally different dish if you chose different combinations -A Cut above the rest – one menu hundreds of possibilities.

For a starter, Robert chose the very satisfying Home made soup of the day (Minestrone) and freshly cut bread for £3.95 while I decided on Grilled goats cheese with cherry tomatoes, onions and capsicum served on a bed of balsamic dressed leaves which was a feast of tastes and textures.  We both chose from the Cut menu for our main courses, with Robert choosing the leg of lamb steak for £14.95, served with caramelised onion gravy, seasonal vegetables, buttered new potatoes with mint pesto and a sweet chilli and coriander dip - all of which he thoroughly enjoyed. I chose the Aubergine Steak which was beautifully cooked and presented and at £8.95 was very reasonable. We both chose a dessert from the tempting menu - I went for raspberry brulee which was deliciously tasty but very light and Robert had Bread and Butter pudding - with a difference as it was flavoured with Baileys and served with cappuccino ice cream.  All in all, this was a superb meal a wonderful mixture of flavours, beautifully presented and served by friendly and attentive staff

There is also a fixed price menu of two courses for £9.95 between 5pm and 7pm Monday to Thursday which would also be ideal for theatre goers. No.1 Shakespeare Street is open from 10.30 till late everyday.  Visit their website www.shakespearestreet.co.uk for details of special events and offers.

Our only slight reservation was that the restaurant proper is upstairs which would pose difficulties for those with mobility problems, but there may well be easier access than the stairs which we were not aware of. However, it is possible to eat downstairs in the bar area (which several people were doing on the evening we visited) so don't let this put you off. You could always check first.
