Havant Arts Centre (now The Spring Arts & Heritage Centre) Review

Great to see Martin Turner and his band recreating the atmosphere of the early Wishbone Ash. A great venue with friendly staff.

I life model here the art classes are great fun lovely tutors great atmosphere.

Our local go-to place for all sorts of things: museum, theatre, cinema, cafe, gift shop, classes...

Great venue attracting some fantastic artists and groups.

lovely small venue for bands/shows etc, be warned though very hot in the theatre especially this time of year!

A hidden gem of a venue, great sound, and so close to home!

Great little local venue. Helpful staff, good little cafe/bar

Great little local theatre. Very small! Good though.

Great Theatre, good coffee , great food and cake to die for. Also Scarves , bags decorations and lots more.

Small intimate theatre, excellent for the local community.

If you want theatre comedy and music in a great little venue then this is for you! Warm welcome, a little cafe and a great little craft shop is a must, of you do one thing in the next couple of months then grab a ticket for a.show here, you wont be disappointed

Good coffee. Good atmosphere. Nice cakes and snacks.

Great time watch Mikado at the Springs Centre. Staff were wonderful, play was great and lots of other activities to get involved with.

Helpful, friendly staff, the theatre is intimate and cosy. Acoustics were good, made for a lovely evening seeing wonderful Kiki Dee and Carmelo. Quite a drive from us, but well worth it

Just been to see Equus by Peter Shaffer performed by The Bench Theatre Company at The Spring Arts & Heritage Centre, Havant. Absolutely brilliant. Martin Dysart who played the Psychiatrist produced one of the best acting performances I have ever seen, Professional or Amateur. Jeff Bone who played Alan Strang the young patient was both brilliant and extremely brave as was Jill Mason who played Leigh Cunningham, the young women. You would not catch me performing nude in front of an audience. The play produced and directed by a friend of mine Alan Ward continues until Saturday. You must go if you get the chance. One not to be missed

A cute little place with a huge variety to go and see!

Lovely place. I go there to watch some
Films and we have a very good lunch

Cafe, ahhh those cakes! Always a nice place to kick back and spend time with coffee and cake

Went for lunch here to listen to a friend who plays in a jazz band. Cafe was quite full. Had sold out if gluten free cake, so settled for a cup of tea. Was offered gf toast tho. Didnt get a table.

Great place to hang out, nice cafe, comfy chairs and plenty of stuff to see

Excellent cafe and the museum is very informative. A good look at the Havant town history

Came across by accident but will definitely visit cafe again. Lovely breakfast.

Nice intimate concert venue (only takes about a 100 max) can get a bit hot & stuffy in warm weather as no air con!

I like going to the Spring, they are very friendly and polite and nothing is too much trouble, I also like going to see the films have they charge a very reasonable price, that also have quite a few things for children as well. We'll done, keep up the good work you are amazing x

Lovely atmosphere with selection of gifts and friendly bar cafe.

Love their tiered cinema and the avocado on toast (vegan) they serve at their cafe is delicious!

Lovely local arts centre with good range of theatre.

Great shows, cafe and gift shop. Looking forward to seeing the museum

Excellent, small venue.
Parking easy.

Very interesting realy nice cafe with home made food

fantastic.great to have a place like this close to home

Excellent coffee and cake, can recommend. Lovely shop too with unusual gifts!

Wonderful place to visit for lunch, seeing a play or movie.

Small, friendly venue. Seen some real gems here. Ticket prices reasonable enough to try different things. Lovely venue & relies on public support as it is a charity organisation. Give it a go!

Had a relaxing cup of tea. Noticed delicious menu, including all day breakfasts, and made a mental note to return soon for food.

Great center where lots of activities could be found !

Wonderful place, great live singing and theatre venue

My Daughter and i took my 2 year old grandaughter today, she absolutley loved it! And it all looked beautiful, the only negative was that it was up a flight of stairs, so you had to take babies out their pram and carry them, so not catered for anyone in a wheelchair, however it was free and we would definatley go back again :)

Popped in for a lunch today. There is a limited menu, staff helpful.

Came here for my son's school performance. Great little venue

Great to be back. Staff so helpful. Had lovely coffee and sandwich and great help at reservation desk. May you keep going from strength to strength.

Entertaining show by charity funded kids! Lovely little cafe too.

Brilliant place to visit for a coffee and the train on the wall. Really happy I walked in.

And unexpected little gem of a place we will definitely be going back again!

Went to see The Christians. Always enjoy going to this venue. Small and intimate with helpfully and friendly staff.

People are so friendly, feel relaxed as soon as you walk over the threshold

When I visited they were renovating so I would have to visit again sometime.

We started to visit the Spring Arts when the Chichester Festival Theatre closed for renovation. We have seen many excellent performances with a highlight being a one man play of Nelson.

We are going to see Sive in February - we were unable to select seats online as they were allocated?

Great theatre space, with friendly staff and a good, varied programme.

I saw a film and felt very comfortable going on my own.

Friendly place, nice atrium, cafe and shop. Interesting museum presenting the history of the Havant area.

Fantastic small venue for intimate music gigs, plays, comedy etc.

Great local arts centre, with Cafe, museum, art gallery and excellent selection of musical and theatrical productions. Seats in theatre are a little small for those of a large frame!

A very active arts centre. Pleasant environment with a good cafe and friendly staff.

A very friendly, comfortable Arts Centre presenting a wide variety of theatre, music, film, talks, children's entertainment, exhibitions, etc. 130 seater theatre has comfortable seating (legroom in the gallery a bit cramped). There is a small bar which also serves tasty light meals (daytime only). There is always a range of quality crafts (jewellery, scarves, ceramics, cards, etc.) available for sale. Also a small, local history museum attached. Free parking after 6.00pm.

Lovely little museum with some hidden gems. The 1950s kitchen was a blast from the past and especially enjoyed the moving dioramas with handles you could turn. Make sure you look up a little as exhibits are fixed high up too. The shop also sells some great chutney. Worth the walk up from Havant town centre - about 5 minutes at most!

Lovely and varied shows, nice bar good mature & intelligent cliental.

First time there after living here for over 30 years. Interesting museum. Had something to eat in the restaurant which was lovely, we will definitely go again. Picked up a brochure which sounds interesting.

Brilliant Concert, by China Crisis, all the Old Hits, Fantastic Audience Involvement, Cracking Evening Best Concert by This Talented Group I've seen 3rd time of Asking Great

Go there regularly. Loads going on for adults and children alike.

Great small local venue with a variety of different acts, workshops and events. Reasonably priced and with a bar. Have been to see comedy acts and music. Can be a bit cramped if busy but wouldn't hesitate to return.

Very decent venue with small bar/coffee shop and limited parking.

Great centre, friendly staff, wide range of activities and cafe with play area for children
