I was pleasantly surprised the first time I walked into new Hull Truck Theatre. The impressive building designed with maximum glass, felt warm, light and airy, not too noisy and afforded views of busy Ferensway through the enormous windows.
Inside the inviting foyer, TV screens provided up to the minute information about the Theatre and its history. Many programmes and leaflets were displayed on every wall.
The Theatre Cafe Bar Staff on the 3 occasions I visited were most attentive and helpful, cheerful and well presented. A credit to the theatre.
Looking around, there were plenty of seating choices, comfy armchairs and settees or if you wanted something more formal, there were tables available with menus and condiments sat on each. Additional menu items were displayed on blackboards at the bar.
Lunch that day was with my daughter Sally and my Mother Gill, we choose a window seat, which was comfortable and private. The Ladies That Lunched and What They Ate!
Drinks ordered, time to look at the menu and try and choose from the many mouth watering dishes. Also time to chat and wait for our food. Incidentally ordering and paying was at the Bar, in return you were given a number for your table.
What arrived was SPECTACULAR!....................
Mediterranean Vegetable, Avocado and Buffalo Mozzarella on Ciabatta Bread.
Sirloin Steak served with Hand Cut Potato Wedges, Cherry Vine Tomatoes and Red Wine Sauce
Chicken Caesar Salad - Bursting with Chicken and Bacon
I could not resist taking a picture of all three dishes, too bad its making my mouth water right now.
A Cafe Bar to recommend the food was outstanding, the service excellent and the prices extremely reasonable.
Try it you will not be disappointed!
