Nice venue , although seats little uncomfortable after a while - need more padding . The firm was a good play . Nice restaurant around the corner for pre theatre meals , and also right next to Swiss Cottage tube station

The space is a great place to have a coffee or a drink and I have had many drinks there before the theatre and just when I have been in the area. The theatre is linked to central school of speech and drama but the quality is rather mixed. The theatre is well laid out and even the restricted view seats are decent is slightly rickety.

Great theatre, where ever you sit the view is decent and the productions are usually enjoyable and varied. There is also a smaller downstairs theatre which shows plays from newer writers - here the seats are cheaper and affordable. It is quite middle class and Hampstead but don't let that stop you.

On its initial move to this building the offerings were of very variable quality but the theatre has grown to be very strong indeed. Only downside is the relatively high ticket prices, though compared to West End prices, its still a bargain.

Modern theatre situated 1 minute walk from Swiss Cottage tube station. A beautiful, modern theatre with a warm feel to it. Bars upstairs and downstairs. Large seating area upstairs. We saw The Phlebotomist in the downstairs theatre - a very cosy, intimate space - which we thoroughly enjoyed. Seats are not pre-allocated so you can sit wherever is available.

Nice cafe in the foyer with a few good and drink options. Plays have never disappointed and I've always enjoyed their innovative approach to scene set. Also I highly appreciated the under 30s discounts

One of my favourite theatres in London, with a consistently creative programme and a great community vibe. Provides a great opportunity to see leading actors perform in a more intimate setting, discover new work or see great productions before they transfer to the West End. The venue itself is spacious and modern with nice food and a good bar selection.

Food/drink service can be very slow if you want refreshment at a busy time, but they do their best. It's a pleasant and convenient space to meet friends. We left "Ravens" 14.12.19 at half time. Hated the constant drift of cigarette smoke from actors on stage into the audience. I

If you sit in the 'dress circle', your knees are under your chin and if you sit in the centre of row C, in front of the window of the 'production box' you have conversations coming from there throughout the production that you're trying to watch. I was very surprised that the architects had not made that window sound proof.

One of the best theatres in London, good view from all seats in the main auditorium and the smaller studio has an intimate feel. The only problem is the refrigerators in the bar aren't cold enough hence the white wine isn't chilled properly.

Oh the shows been cancelled cause one of actors is sick...... no we run to understudies. Have a glass of wine as compensation....Oh not the Pinot Grigio you can have the house white or red...... remind me never to go to Hampstead Theatre for anything even the wrecking ball

My wife tried to exchange a ticket that she just bought, got bounced backwards and forwards between them and their ticket agent. One hour on the phone, net result - sorry, computer says no. Ugh!

One of the best experiences I had while in London. Not only is the staff amazing, the theater itself is stunning and extremely comfortable. The seats are comfy and there's more than enough leg room no matter where you're sitting. I watched "Dry Powder" and the show was spectacular. The acting was superb and beyond amazing. Really worth a watch

Fantastic Theatre. Very similar to Greenwich where you probably can sit anywhere and still get a decent view. Seats are comfy and the stage itself is large so you clearly can get some decent productions going on here. Easy to get to from the Tube, and a lot of food and drink places nearby in case you need to refresh before you get there, though there is also a cafe in the theatre too.

Stylish, informal and contemporary venue comprising 2 performance spaces and refreshment area spilling outside onto the adjoining landscaped complex. Possibly the best spot to hang-out/ relax in the area. Top notch here.
