Plotting the future at The Royal Albert Hall

The Royal Albert Hall has some of the best catering and hospitality offers to be found within a public space in London. Working alongside the executive of The Hall and Rhubarb Food Design, we are helping to define the future of F&B, and are looking into creating new and exciting concepts in parts of the building not currently open to the public. These are exciting times at the Hall, and the next few years will see the F&B offers taken to even greater heights.
