Cafe Bar at The Royal Albert Hall in City of London, Westminster

Great music venue but always so confusing to get around! Cafe food (especially for the price) not really worth it when there's so much else on the high street.

Watched gladiator played to the London Philharmonic Orchestra. Incredible.

Beautiful venue and the staff where freindly and helpful

Great amazing place! Ticket office staff 5star! But all prices for drinks or ice cream are ridiculous!

What an amazing venue. So beautiful from outside to in. The classic FM concert was out of this world.

went to see Gladiator with the Philharmonic Orchestra playing the soundtrack live. What an amazing experience it was. Never been to the Royal Albert Hall before and I was totally in awe of it's beauty. Fantastic night.

Stunning and beautiful. Paul the guide is a genius.

A sensational concert hall. The tour is definitely recommended; a concert or other event would likely leave an even greater impression.

Beautiful building, decent and comfortable seats considering their long history, and the best sound for live music!

Great night fabulous place and awesome concert

Great film, great music, great venue. Great.

Superb performance hall steeped in history, to see during a concert or to visit with an RAH guide

Great experience loved the set up, sound, crowd control and ease to get in and out.

Crap seats, but he acoustics are amazing

Fabulous, historic and memorable .

A dream - beautiful concert hall with excellent acoustics.

Bought a premium package to see a matinee Gladiator in concert with a meal in Coda. Incredible from start to end.

An icon of a concert venue & probably the best concert venue in the world. The acoustics are amazing, the view from whatever seat you have is fantastic and it is no surprise that artists love playing at this venue. Really helpful staff will direct you to your seat and if you fancy a drink and a bite to eat, the bars are worth a visit too. Situated at the top of 'museum alley' in South Kensington it makes for a wonderful day out in that part of the City. If you've not gone there before - go!

We really enjoyed our tour of the Royal Albert Hall when visiting London. Music is very important to our family so this was a must-do! Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and personable. She gave loads of tips and highlights throughout the tour. We could not take photos inside the auditorium based on the requests of the artist performing that night, but that is okay. They are available to see online ;) We loved the tour and recommend it!

A beautiful venue but very overpriced for drinks and snacks. Seats are comfortable and in the stalls they swivel so you can get a better view/sit more comfortably. Bar service is subject to a 10% discount with Barclaycard or Barclays Premier at present. Well staffed and professionally organised. Toilets are pretty foul likely as they're so busy rather than through lack of care/maintenance. The gents only have two cubicles and a large trough that inevitably means urine all over the floor so I hate to think what is on the bottom of people's shoes walking around in there.

Amazing venue. We sat right in the back row, in the middle, which was great because not only could we see the show fine, we got the best view of the entire place. Fantastic place.

This was my second time doing the guided tour of the Royal Albert Hall. The staff are very nice and very knowledgeable. Really enjoyable!

Meladze's concert! The hall was full! Awesome concert! Awesome audience. Albert Hall is magnificent!

Lovely building, found the seating uncomfortable. Our seats were at the top of the stairs with nothing to keep us safe if you missed your footing you would fall to the bottom of the stairs. But has great acoustics

Door on ticket does not always match door needed for your area so make time to move around. Other than that great venue.

We went here for Mike+Mechanics concert and it was an amazing experience for us.

Great venue for a concert. Parking just 5-minute walk. Really enjoyed our visit and the concert.

The place is stunning ! The seats could really use some new filling.

Loved the staff, good customer service. The venue is beautiful and well kept...the sound quality is sharp and good. The artist was fantastic happy with the venue and the experience.

The place is like a maze, easy to get lost, a couple of signs wouldn’t go amiss. Was at a concert but actually disappointed in the sound.

Beautiful building. Will definitely have to come back to watch a concert or show.

The show was ok, not my favorite, but the venue is absolutely beautiful. Lighting is formidable. Seats are super uncomfortable, revamp?

Messiah on Good Friday. Unforgettable and fabulous.

Beautiful building, the interior is wonderful and all the events attended have been very worthwhile and enjoyable.

RAH is always the most spectacular venue in London..worth every penny of any ticket price.

Went to see Beck, outstanding show but the venue. W.o.w. Go for a gig, go and stand outside and marvel, get a tour. But go. Brilliant

Historical location for high quality music. Absolutely a must see.

Gorgeous venue! Well organised. Pleasant atmosphere!

The guided tour of the hall was lovely and informative.

Definitely lives up to the hype. A fantastic place to experience live music.

We (family of 4, with 14 and 11 yo) visited the Royal Albert Hall on Easter Bank Holiday Monday. We booked on a tour with 2:1 rail card discount and it was fantastic experience. The staff were really friendly and organised. We had tea/soft drinks in the cafe before which had a nice atmosphere and the drinks were reasonably priced. Our tour guide Paul was brilliant, he was extremely knowledgeable and had lots of funny stories that brought the tour to life. The Albert Hall was very impressive and it was interesting to see the technical teams setting up for the evening performance. Definitely a highlight from our trip to London. Thank you!!

I recommend the Good Friday concert at the Royal Albert Hall, where Handel's Messiah has been performed for 150 years, with the famous Hallelujah. In short, an experience to live at least once in your life. A magical room and not a place available. A gigantic choir with a singing power rarely equaled. I recommend this experience The photos below are thirty minutes before the start

Absolutely brilliant for concerts The sound is amazing. Would definitely go again for a live performance 👏 Great experience..

The experience was wonderful. The Royal Albert Hall impresses from the inside. The performance was impeccable.

Beautiful location, one of the most beautiful there is.

Great place, acoustics are amazing

Come and see a Cirque du Soleil show. It is recommended to confirm your seat first before going to the corresponding entrance, which can save a lot of time. There are bars selling drinks near different seating areas, but the snacks sold at different sales points are different. The front row seats on the second floor are a little crowded, and the guardrails are not so friendly to short people and will just block the view.

The room alone was a great experience. The performance of Handel's Messiah there on Good Friday has cult status in London. People stand up for Hallelujah.

A fantastic venue. All of the staff were really friendly and helpful. We dined in the Verdi Italian restaurant before the show which was really good but the highlight of the evening was seeing Beck after waiting for 30 years. What an amazing performer! The BBC symphony orchestra was a superb accompaniment.

Great venue ! Love seeing bands here! Especially for the TCT

Saw Beck here last night with the BBC Concert Orchestra.

Always a good gig. Whatever genre.

Flipping marvellous what a spectacular venue a national treasure of a gig venue. Even up in the cheap seats it sounded amazing up in the mushrooms

I went to the café And I took part in the big egg hunt and was hunting beast egg at Royal Albert hall 🤪🐤🐣✝️

Beautiful venue. Excellent staff. Bar prices insane - sadly, like every other venue. Web site and the ability to preorder drink - not there yet!

magnificent venue, friendly and extraordinary staff!

The Corrs coming back to the Royal Albert Hall after a long time. I had such a great time. Repairs were underway and somehow messed up the way pwople get into and out of the poace but other than that it was great.

It was very nice show, all schools around Wandsworth.

Thank you Paul for a very nice guided tour. Feels like you really enjoy your work. Best, Dirk

Love the tour with Paul. Such a nice place with an incredible history.

Visited multiple times and always a fantastic experience.

Absolutely amazing venue and atmosphere

Amazing organisation and politeness! Truly, throughout the whole process (both tour and with particular mention of the afternoon tea). Getting lost is simply impossible, as you're at the caring hands of the staff. Thank you to the young man (staff member) who offered me to seat as I'd come almost 30min early. Thank you for your kindness! I was the young lady in the flowery dress.

Cathedral of music. Acoustics is wonderful, the building is magnificent. The concerts are always world class. One of the best places there is for classical music. However, I found it very upsetting that the RAH is selling extremely restricted view tickets for a category A price ( seat 5 in the boxes at the rousing circle). Why? Because they can... And this is why I gave 4 stars and not 5.

My friends and I had a lot of fun recently, it was really great for us here.

One of the most beautiful venues in London! No matter where you sit, you have excellent views and a wonderful theater experience!

Love this place for a good concert

Impressive, from all perspectives. Firstly, people are extremely polite and supportive being present at any time you need. Secondly, the building itself is amazing and has a very aristocratic aesthetic. Everywhere you look you can find details about its long history and artists who have performed here. Thirdly, the show we attended, Mike and the Mechanics, was a good show with a lot of beautiful songs and a vibrant atmosphere.

great venue, not far from the tube station. subway tunnel is usually closed by the time the performance is over though so have to walk to the open entrance. crowds aren’t too bad when leaving and performances ended at a reasonable time so i actually had a chance to use the toilets without fearing missing the last train home. the actual venue is beautiful, great sound and atmosphere. i’ve sat up in the rausing circle and down in the stalls. the stall seats can be angled to face the centre or the stage, depending on performance which is a game changer for sufferers of back or neck pain. the view from the stalls were great and unobstructed, even from the people standing in the arena. the rausing circle seats we had however had a restricted view, this was warned before we bought the tickets, but restricted undersells it. when sitting in your seat, you can only actually see a small sliver of the stage. that show wasn’t massively visual, more of an audio experience (the christmas performance) so it wasn’t too bad, just be prepared to basically not see the stage if you are getting restricted view seats, unless you heavily lean or stand.

Brilliant venue, thoroughly enjoyed "Symphonic Soul", great evening's entertainment

Beautiful venue,all staff polite and helpful

Beautiful place and great for concerts

Great venue very polite and helpful staff.

I had a slight issue with my seat whilst attending The royal albert hall for this year's teenage cancer trust comedy night. I contacted the customer service team afterwards and they were so helpful. A man called Mark replied to my email straight away and offered me complimentary tickets to a future performance for the inconvenience. I can not fault the team for the way they handled my situation. 10/10

Great Impressive and the acoustics are great

As a delivery location, it should be considered friendly.

What an amazing venue. The comfort, acoustics and pleasure of enjoying an amazing night out.

I've never been to London, but I have Gordon Lightfoot's double CD from 2016. He was the best singer-songwriter and live performer of all time. He is irreplaceable. R.i.P.

I’ve been to the Royal Albert Hall a few times. The last one was to see The Corrs. The venue is a show for itself, it’s beautiful and glamorous. The acoustic is amazing. If you”re ever in London, make sure to book a show or event at the Royal Albert Hall. You won’t regret this experience!

A magnificent evening of high-quality music. Zucchero filled the entire theater with music and joy; everyone was dancing and singing, creating a unique atmosphere in an iconic Theater.

Went to the comedy night hosted by Micky Flanagan for teenage cancer, fantastic night

The Who in Royal Albert Hall. An amazing historic place. The sound is killer.

Organised coach trip by a friend, what an amazing experience. The place has the most amazing atmosphere and the music was fantastic. I would recommend visiting here if you are in London.

An experience. I went with a friend to watch the Sex pistols...the ambiance, the lighting, the view...everything was awesome.

Lovely place. Went to the Teenage Cancer Trust event,great seats,a good view as well.

Went to see David Gray at RAH. Superb concert. Drinks are expensive but always have been but £2:70 for a packet of crisps is a complete rip off

I went to the Oliviers yesterday and it was an amazing show. However my night was ruined by two very impolite ushers at the door (door 6). I am recovering from surgery and have multiple medical problems meaning I can’t wear a dress. This was a black tie event so obviously suit trousers and a smart sparkly top would be fine. The ushers tried to turn me away at the door saying ‘you’re a lady you need to be in a dress’ I was gobsmacked. They called over their supervisor and in the mean time one of the ushers was mocking me saying that I can’t wear dresses. Luckily the supervisor was very nice and didn’t see a problem with me coming in but honestly it made me really really upset. I have been looking forward to this event for months and that stuck with me the whole night and honestly I’m still really upset now. As an usher myself I imagine my manager would be gobsmacked to hear this kind of derogatory language being used towards guests.

Went here for a live performance and it was the best I've experienced. The acoustics and seating options are provide the best experience.

The **Royal Albert Hall** is one of London's most iconic and prestigious concert venues, renowned for its stunning architecture and rich history.

Visitors to the Royal Albert Hall can explore its rich history through guided tours or experience its stunning acoustics and atmosphere by attending a concert. It remains one of the most visited and beloved cultural venues in London.

Beautiful venue to see film gala/any classical concert.Drinks are very expensive /a lot of mobile phone filming during concert which was distracting and concerns raised at interval with stewards.late comers let in half way through musical pieces -which again was distracting and slightly spoiled the moment. Feedback given to RAH. Will visit again though despite the above however vouchers for drinks /money off future tickets would have been welcomed given the issues we had.

Service and historial building are the only things worth it… the bar set is lame, limited -only small cans of coke and no redbull- ticketmaster was overwhelmed and didn’t show the tickets, they sell seats were is barely impossible to see anything…. and awkward and endless NGO campaigns taking ages before the show killing the vibe.

Amazing. When in London, you have to go here.

Great guided tour of this iconic London building.

Stunning venue. Staff were good, friendly and helpful. Drinks reasonably priced depending on what you have. Well worth a visit.

Beautiful venue 5Star event! Highly recommend.

Absolutely brilliant! We went to the teenage cancer trust comedy night and it was a great show Thanks to all involved

Oh, what a spectacular James Arthur concert. The place... unforgettable.

Level42 and The Who performing in aid of Teenage Cancer Trust ❤️ 27Mar25
