TOM’s Bar “...a place to enjoy, to discuss and to take in the atmosphere each event brings...” TOM’s Bar is an important part of The Old Market, and we don’t like to think of it as ‘a run-of-the-mill, pricey theatre bar’. As such, our prices equal or undercut those of other local bars, our service is always personal, and unlike most, we promise to stay open after your show. We’re proud to serve a great range of high quality refreshments. You’ll find some familiar products but also many from independent, local producers too. Welcoming staff serve a range of wines, draft beers, spirits, ciders and snacks; the ideal accompaniments to your evening. TOM’s Bar also provides an intimate setting for smaller events, and for show previews too exclusive for the Main House next door.
