Omnibus Clapham Review

I saw the show Bookish here (which was brilliant) and it was my first time visiting the theatre. What a great place. the staff were so friendly and helpful and flexible. The show i saw actually took place in the cafe area which was a wonderful cosy space which was intimate and appropriate. They had a decent drinks menu and not too pricey for a theatre. Good transport as Clapham Common is not far away.

Small but nice theatre with a good bar inside, nice atmosphere.

I recently discovered this venue (Ayanna Witter-Johnson album launch which was superb). So glad to revisit again but in another performance area to see the excellent Othello Remixed play. I also found venue staff friendly plus reasonable drink prices and comfortable common room area to chill out in too. Definitely visiting Omnibus again, very soon

Had a great to with friends watching a theatre production. The cafe has a great selection of drinks and some great quality food in the cafe.

Saved by the local community from the inevitable conversion into flats, this former library is now a hub for the performing arts in Clapham.
Live music, plays, poetry readings and workshops are just some of the diverse listings on offer. There's also a great little bar.

Comfortable theatre with nice drinks before or after the show. The location is a simple 10 minute walk from Clapham Common Tube Station with plenty of spots to stop if you want a bite to eat before or after the show.

Great little theatre. We saw "Hearing Things" and loved the place. It definitely has the feel of a 'small' theatre, but a really great one to pay a visit to. If you're in the area, it's well paying a visit.

Excellent play. Friendly staff. Bar good atmosphere good decor. Drinks reasonably priced. Didn't try the food.

What a fantastic play to watch really good productions 5* and a charity too needs to be kept open n funded

Great adaptable venue, friendly team, fun space in wonderful part of Clapham

A good local small theatre in Clapham went here recently to watch we were having a perfectly nice time.

Nice, intimate, has a nice cafe/bar that's open till 12. Will come again.

The refurbished cafe is great. A nice place for a Sunday coffee with some good jazz music played live

We went to see a great little French improv show for the kids, lovely cafe and building too.

Excellent theatre well worth a visit. Very intimate and friendly. Watched Gauhaar Jaan The Datia Incident. Excellent

What a great place! On my doorstep almost but never been there before. "Tony's Last Tap" mind broadingly good too.

A fantastic local place for live music and theatre..
Great staff.

Wonderful arts space relaxed environment. Helpful staff

Really cool and quaint layout. Very friendly staff, and great atmosphere. Definitely would go back.

Great facilities producing a brilliant space to see and produce excellent shows

This is a lovely little local theatre, I was lucky enough to accompany a group of children here on a school trip to see a performance of the selfish giant which was excellent and I highly recommend it. The only issue was as this is a very small theatre. Guessing approx 80 - 100 seats and the staff had overbooked so unfortunately little children had to sit on the floor for roughly an hour while they watched. As a parent I personally wouldn't have been happy with this. However to end on a positive It was lovely to see the performers meet and greet the children afterwards and answer any questions they had about the story they were telling.

Rated 5 ++++++ Excellent shows. Brilliant. Highly recommend

Great Organisation, with an eclectic bar and atmosphere. Do check out what is on or sign up to the newsletter. I've been to a shakespere tour of clapham, a couple of pre-Edinburgh fringe comedy, and even dance lessons!

Excellent venue. Very welcoming warm. Seating area comfortable before seeing play.

A thoroughly pleasant experience .much more intimate & atmospheric than most theatres in the west end , barring Royal opera house . It is a lovely way to spend an evening or two

Omnibus hosts drama, odd but enjoyable nights like storytelling, and music which is always high class from mainly young performers. It's relaxed, friendly and good value too. Well worth checking out.

I suggest you book a show and see for yourself, it's the best of its genre.

It's a nice little theatre, but generally expensive, a glass of wine was very expensive and not really nice enough to justify the price.

Nice bar and pleasant, welcoming staff. Lovely cats as well.

Wonderful Staff, Great environment, Excellent Prices, and Amazing Bar. This is a great place for just a relaxing night or a get away place for the weekend. They always have something going on and its marvelous how busy this little place is.

An excellent, converted Library, into Bar and intimate sized theatre. A nice, community led theatre.

We held an event here and the staff were really kind and caring

A really lovely place with a really lovely little cafe. Nice area and just opposite Clapham Common, and 5 mins from the tube.

This Theater is both very cozy and yet wonderful an amazing place to go, very friendly staff and many great shows and things on that are a must see!!

We watched Othello, it was amazing great great talent

Great local theatre offering a wide variety of plays, music and other art exhibits.

I ve attended several plays, all very high quality production in an intimate setting.

They have lots of programs for families and well. We went to A Midsummers Night Dream last year where we had to explore the entire Clapham neighborhood as part of the immersive theatre experience.

Great community theatre space. Supportive of upcoming talent.

Lovely venue in the middle of clapham - the pub up front is perfect for summer days and nights

A wonderfull experience. I took my child here to partake in a summer programme for the week and my child recalls nice staff, exeptional food quality(the children participating in the programme were offered free breakfast and lunch), and the overall experience was a 10/10 would recommend.

Lovely evening with the improvisation matches, food was lovely, service kind and nice, and felt very safe Covid-wise. So grateful to the venue for organising

Very nice place to take your kids. The show we saw was great (the little prince), actors were just amazing and you could tell this was highly professional. The facility is all right, I've seen better places in terms of what's offered besides the show itself (eg. drinks and food), but this is honestly a minor issue.

What a community theatre should be, it's a nice small spot. As a result, the shows are fairly intimate performances. The location isn't bad, not too far from the Clapham Commons stop.

What a Theatre!!! Fantastic atmosphere and a very welcoming team, which makes your experience all that more incredible!!! Thank you for all your work supporting us during our #OOTW2019 Festival

We went to Omnibus Theatre to see a play recently and it was great. There is a little bar area serving drinks and snacks. The staff was friendly and attentive too. What a gem! It is definitely worth a visit.

I went to see a fantastic modern take on Othello. Brilliant acting and very nice relaxed venue.

Lovely little theatre, really good prices and amazing staff - everyone who was working there clearly wanted to be there. Solid, will be back

Fantastic venue with friendly staff. Comfy spacious bar area, nice seats in the studio, extra points for large cubicles in the loo!! The show I saw (Country Music) was excellent and they seem to program a good variety of work. I've already begun booking Edinburgh previews!

A lovely little space to perform in. Clean and welcoming.

I had a beautiful evening out in this very good, converted Library/theatre. A theatre well worth visiting.

Atmospheric theatre space and staff pleasant and helpful. The space is too small though; the lobby was so crowded we couldn't get to the loo. There is a bar but the layout results in one narrow corridor between the lobby and the auditorium so no chance whatsoever of getting a drink before the show. It's not all about the art so perhaps get some mystery shoppers to advise the board?

Wish I lived nearer, I'd be a regular. Great little theatre and well worth a visit.

Great place for cake and coffee as well as theatre.

Brilliant local theatre. Thanks to all the people behind this community effort.

Fabulous local theatre w terrific production of Tony s Last Tape. Brings back all those years when Benn was vilified by the right-wing media, only to become a national treasure in his older age. Wonderful atmosphere, friendly staff, excellent drinks and food

I had no idea and so pleased and what a production! Saw Othello reimagined in a boxing ring with young Londoners with proper south London accents and maybe a few Northerners thrown in for good measure. A delight from start to finish.

Very cool theatre centre doing interesting work! Give it a go!

A delightful space for small, intimate shows. A lovely, intimate lounge area and reasonably priced bar makes this a really welcoming space. Also, the two Omnibus cats are gorgeous!

The Omnibus is a medium sized suburban venue that supplies meeting spaces for talks or performers. The facilities were perfect and the staff very helpful throughout our event

Lovely local theatre in Clapham. Great venue with cafe and bar.
