Disappointing overall but prices are very reasonable for some items. It would help if there was a sign on arriving saying that it is counter service. We stood to the side for a while expecting to be seated as in the previous cafe. Nice and airy room but rather lacking in atmosphere. They have tried to brighten it up with rather revolting garish artificial flowers on the table which I moved off. Tasty carrot soup but one of us had to ask for it to be reheated. Sausage in a roll very enjoyable. Houlloumi salad was meant to be with lettuce and tomato. No tomato on roll, had to be asked for and presented chopped into pieces in a small bowl, better presentation would have helped. Also the lettuce...
During my visit to Malvern, I decided to have lunch at The Scene. I ordered a vegan falafel salad, but my meal was disrupted when I found a caterpillar crawling out from the lettuce. Despite my discomfort, I tried to discreetly return the salad to the counter, where the waiter apologized. I declined the offer for another salad as I was feeling unwell. I was not offered a refund, which I found disappointing. Additionally, I was told that the lettuce leaves were not washed before serving, which is concerning for food safety. I tried to contact the restaurant through their Theatre page, but have not received a response in over a week. This experience left me feeling upset and eager to leave the...
Called to book a table and told the restaurant was full but the bistro didn’t take bookings so we could just come in and find a table. Arrived at 10 past 1 for a 2.30 performance. No tables and a 96 year old mother having difficulty standing. Managed find her a chair and ordered three salads at 20 past 1. They didn’t arrive. And didn’t arrive. At 2.00 husband checked if we had been forgotten. How long does it take a well staffed kitchen to assemble salad. The food arrived at 13 past 2. We bolted it and got into our seats at 2.32. A thoroughly unpleasant experience all round. Poor Mums Christmas present so shame on you, Malvern Theatre.
I went with a friend for a casual lunch. The staff were friendly and attentive. We ordered homemade tomato soup with granary bread. The soup was tasty, but the bread seemed a bit stale and was served with a subpar butter substitute instead of real butter. We weren't given the option for a vegan alternative. The restaurant had a nice, bright atmosphere, but the hard surfaces made it noisy, especially with unnecessary pop background music playing. Overall, the music was distracting and made it hard to have a conversation. We would have preferred a quieter, more relaxed dining experience.

we booked a meal (for 2 before the evening theatre 17 January 2023. The main course was fish (rolled in pancetta and vegetables. whereas the food looked OK, it was bizarre! It must have been prepared some weeks previously, then heated (sort of before serving, as some bits were hot, others cold! but the sweet was equally bizarre: a chocolate torte with strawberries. the torte had been frozen, and not thawed. It had the consistency of foam rubber. Inedible (and I did try!! It intrigues how you would cook something so bad!
Food and service outstanding Great mix of lunch brunch and specials for the panto pre show Good offer of children’s menu which had a £2 discount offer with adult food Nice Xmas themed drinks Turkey pie and mash with red cabbage was excellent value and very tasty Scene burger was stacked with flavour Nice pigs in blankets with gravy starter Deserts and cheese board were all great flavours and nice value touches Sweet shop was well stocked and reasonable prices from a venue for once Highly recommended
We eat frequently for pre-show and rate it highly. This was our first visit to the cafe. Sue had a Caeser salad and I had a smoked salmon salad. Outstanding quality. A substantial plateful for a bill of less than £20. Service was charming and efficient. The surroundings are as classy as the pre-show restaurant. What's not to like.
There was a small but locally sourced 3 course menu for only £32 plus a nice selection of wines Excellent quality and value Staff friendly and efficient and plenty of time to eat pre show Need to pre book Went back the following morning for a great coffee and breakfast roll

Pat and our daughter had drinks in the late morning. After the three of us had a great time at Morgan, we joined Pat and Helen for more drinks. The restaurant was quite busy, with some people dining outside. It was a very relaxing and enjoyable experience.
