Every January London theatres offer tickets as low as £10/seat for over 50 shows until mid-February as part of their annual 'Get into London Theatre' promotion.
This offer is a great opportunity to see some fab shows — including West End hits Billy Elliott, Lion King, Matilda and War Horse. Book* early to get the best seats. Below are some suggestions of places that will get you in and out in time for the show.

- Billy Elliott (Victoria Palace Theatre) : Grand Imperial London — Voted by the Telegraph as one of London’s best afternoon teas, the Dim Sum Afternoon Tea brings an Asian twist to the traditional afternoon tea. The tea stand comes with dim sum dishes such as dumplings, wantons, Asian salads on lettuce leaves and prawn crackers. You can have tea (or call it lunch) from Noon to 5 pm. www.grandimperiallondon.com ✆ +44 2078 218898
101 Buckingham Palace Road, London SW1W 0SJ
- Lion King (Lyceum Theatre) : One Aldwych — For a special afternoon out book before or after matinee performance of Lion King, which plays across the street at the Lyceum Theatre. This has to be one of the sweetest teas I have been to and is sure to please your kids or kids at heart. Special touches include a keepsake illustrated menu featuring different characters on the cover from the book. onealdwych.com ✆ +44 2073 0010008
1 Aldwych, London WC2B 4BZ
- Matilda (Cambridge Theatre) : MEAT Market — Discreetly located within Jubilee Market Hall in Covent Garden, this is as far as I am concerned home of the messy burger. The burgers typically have two patties with a full choice of toppings. Parents can end their meal with a spiked milkshake (a non-alcoholic version is also available). www.themeatmarket.co.uk ✆ +44 2072 404852
The Deck, Jubilee Market Hall, Tavistock Street, London WC2E 8BE
- War Horse (New London Theatre Theatre) : Hawksmoor Seven Dials — The beef in their Sunday roast is listed by cut and weight, with an assortment of sides (mac 'n' cheese, mashed potatoes, creamed spinach). Be sure to leave room for yummy desserts like Knickerbocker Glory*, Peanut Butter Shortbread, and Raspberry Eaton Mess* to name a few. They also serve a reasonably priced express two- and three- menu before 6:30 pm or after 10 pm Monday-Saturday.
