Handy place for a meal before a show, reasonably accessible too

Overall Rating
Good
Level access from the street, but tightly packed with tables so a bit of a squeeze getting in. I stayed in my wheelchair as I couldn't easily see anywhere to store it if I transferred! There's a second level up one step (disabled loo there too) but staff offered to bring portable ramp if needed.
Disabled Access In and Around
Good
No steps at entrance but tight on space. Little room to manoeuvre inside. There is one step to second seating area where the disabled loo is as well. We only found out there was a ramp when someone else requested it. Sadly that meant moving another diner out of the way to put the ramp in place! But at least they are trying.
Parking & Transport
Good
Can't comment on parking but Strand is fairly central location, lots of taxis and is a short distance from Waterloo (was about twenty minutes push). Nearest tube is Covent Garden but that has no step free access (nearest accessible tubes are Westminster or Waterloo).
Accessible Toilets
Good
Can't comment on state of it as didn't use it. But was impressed that there was one.
Staff
Good
Helped another wheelchair user by getting the ramp and pushed her up it. Offered to help me. Moved chairs so I could get in though didn't consider I might want to transfer. But overall very helpful.
