Right at every turn
Curve Bar
Although its the newest bar to open in the Southbank precinct, staff at Curve are already atuned to the peccadillos of BigMouth and CB.
Without prompting, I was greeted last night with a Bombay gin and tonic. Staff remembering not only the drink, but also the brand, I nominated at our previous visit four weeks earlier. CB (a non drinker) was equally impressed when presented with a chilled glass of mineral water.
Curve is fast becoming our favoured haunt for pre-show dinner and drinks. It offers a relaxing mood and great service.
An array of options means you can sink into the lounges, pull up a high-stool to a round table, eat at a long bench, retreat to one of the pocket alcoves, or enjoy the outdoor setting.
Our meals are always served in a timely fashion - with staff helping to keep an eye on the start time of performances at the Art Centre.
This time we shared a few plates and tried the desserts.
Without doubt, we shall be back. And soon.

Was taken there myself for pre-Xmas drinks with non-show types and we settled in for quite a session, enjoying the ebb of people before show, after and then show people themselves. Quite a mix.
