Worse say of my life really! The show is very poor, it looks like they hire the kids on the street and the female singer has a terrible Voice, even the waiters clearly are ashamed of it. The drinks have water in it but they have a bar conveniently openned with good drinks do they Can rip you off a bit longer. Chicken was raw, potatoes cold and the only thing that was good was the bread everyone was eating all the time. The lady from reservations looks like a witch herself and god shes not wearing a custom! We had a 2 for 1 discount and even then célt. Robbed. They should pay us to Be there. Its medieval torture. We left before dessert so we dont know about that! And someone should call the health inspection because there was water running through a wall and the waitress poured the left over soup from the plates into the pots again! Major rip off!

I went to the Medieval Medieval Banquet last night and I had the time of my life! It's perfectly family friendly and it definitely appeals to all ages. The show that is put on makes you feel like you're are actually at a banquet. I was literally bouncing up and down in my chair from excitement throughout the whole show. Our wench was very funny and interactive and the actors really brought the crowd into the experience. I would absolutely recommend the Medieval Banquet to everyone. It's a blast!

I've been all over Europe attending Medieval Baquets, in Italy, Latvia, Ireland and Britain and this was certainly the best yet. The food was great and and the music was a joy. Everyone at the banquet seemed to enjoy doing what they do. I would recommend this to anyone. I would not normally write reviews but the last comment seems to be incredibly unfair to the staff that clearly worked hard to make our night great.

AVOID AT ALL COSTS! I was there recently with my group. I was served cold , burned potatos, tastless cheap chicken . I wont mention wine . The worst wine I tried in my life. Price £50.They like selling themselves to offer theatre experience. Just wondering if they ever been to a theatre.
Total rip off

The potato's were fine and the chicken was cooked perfectly when I was there. I had a big group across a few tables and we all thought the show was professional. Are you sure you went recently and to the London banquet, I cannot imagine your description is of this show.

They were so nice there... have a look at the review I put together earlier.

I've visited banquet on several occasions. My friend had birthday party over there, I then suggested it as our office Christmas party venue (we all had a great time). I took my friends visiting from abroad last weekend and have to say I was surprised how much the place changed since last December! Show is very different from what it used to be, I liked the old show but love the new one. Music is fantastic, performers have really good singing voices, 'wenches' are very friendly, over all very professionally done. I'm quite puzzled by other people's comments about food and wine. If you are after fine dining book a table at a restaurant. This is not a restaurant, I think it is very clear from any information you can find about the place. However, I think food tasted great. Wine was as any other house wine I've tasted before. No better no worse. Whole package is fantastic value for money and time. If you wanted to get the same program somewhere else you would have to go to theatre, then for a dinner, then to a pub for drinks and then to a club for a disco. Don't think you would manage to do that for less than £50.00!

I've been to Medieval Times in Orlando but this place kicks butt. What a great night! I was over in London for a vacation and Saturday night was wild. I've been to Medieval Times in Orlando but this place kicks butt. Sure there are no horses but the fighting is authentic and the music is cool. The food is seriously good compared to the stuff you get in the US. I'm coming back again next time I'm in town.

A brilliant party, great show, great service and loads of food. My company spent an evening at the Medieval Banquet in London, and I have to say it was a truly brilliant night out. Myself and my party of forty spent Wednesday at the venue. The whole evening was so well put together with non stop entertainment and laughter. Although the venue is large you always felt as if it was just for you that everything was being done. Our serving wenches went out of their way to ensure we had a great evening; as did the rest of the staff which ranged from Kings and Queens to jugglers and knights who fought in the middle of the floor much to the delight of the crowd. The food was excellent and served to the table in a performance like manner which again added to the occasion. There was plenty of it and it was piping hot and extremely yummy. All in all it was a great night out and we couldn't praise the staff highly enough for an evening that we will still be talking about for many months to come.

It's simply an evil dinner from hell's kitchen and cost's a fortune.

Bad food, bad wine and even worse beer.

Do not go there!
