Way exceeded my expectations. Fantastic performance from the actors who did a great job interacting with every table. It was so funny our cheeks were aching. As soon as it was over I was contacting friends to recommend it. Well worth the money.

Memorable, innovative, nostalgic - all in one. The cast, voices, intonations, the set-up and situation are all worth it’

What To Expect

Prepare for a hilarious dining experience created in homage to Fawlty Towers, the beloved British sitcom written by comedy legends John Cleese and Connie Booth.

The antics of the actors unfold as you eat, with this comedy playing out around you. Laugh as you dine and savor the flavor of dishes like rich tomato and basil soup, roasted chicken with seasonal vegetables, and sumptuous chocolate mousse cake for dessert.

Please note that Faulty Towers The Dining Experience portrays the spirit of the Fawlty Towers TV characters and the atmosphere they create, but the performers are impersonators and the show has no connection to the BBC, nor to John Cleese, Connie Booth, or their TV scripts.

Fantastic experience, definitely worth booking for any faulty towers fan!!

I booked this as a birthday treat for my husband, with our friends and daughters. It was absolutely brilliant, the actors were hilarious and did an amazing job. Even our daughters who have never seen the program loved it.

We love it!

Andrew_B, Nov 2025
We all loved it. Very funny. They reimagined many of my favorite moments. The actors were perfect. They must really be committed to their art.

Laugh, listen and re-live televisual history

Don’t mention the war 😂

ioulia_e, Oct 2025
Absolutely hilarious and clever comedy! Basil manuel and Sybil were stunning and created a friendly atmosphere with all the guests! The eccentric Basil,the Dragon lady and the waiter from Barcelona, got us laughing for whole 2 hours ! The food was great too ! A must go show

Modest expectations

Harry_S, Oct 2025
Very British. The locals who grew up Faulty Towers seemed to soothe humor more. The food was ok( chicken leg with veggies) but hardly worth the price

Interesting experience

Sheila_M, Oct 2025
Fun experience but food is marginal. We laughed a lot but the food was dry chicken, tomato soup and a dessert. Go have fun but do not go and expect good food.

Deborah_C, Oct 2025
Had a ball, took my son who is 30, he loved it laughing the whole time and have not seen it on TV food ok, but great night out

Pleasant afternoon out

adele_w, Oct 2025
Very funny and interactive. However, that depends on where you are seated. Avoid table 11 if you can

Worth the experience if you are a Faulty Towers fan

ROBYN_T, Oct 2025

Fun fun fun

Amazing evening

William_W, Sep 2025
Fabulous evening overflowing with big laughs! Excellent actors, fun evening, amazing interaction with the audience. Can’t remember when I’ve laughed so hard.

The Fault of Faulty Towers

Deon_N, Sep 2025
Generally a poor show and the food was mediocre. Not worth a £100 per ticket. I had to make an 1hr journey to get to the venue only too completely disappointed.

Laughed my ass off!

Kathy_F, Aug 2025
Awesome show. We laughed from beginning to end! We came to London from the US about 2 years ago and attempted to get tickets for this show then but they were sold out for our time frame. I made sure to get tickets prior to our arrival. So glad we did! The actors superb!

Harris_B, Mar 2025
It was based on the 1970's TV series. This live show was wonderfully done with typical British humor and great spontaneity. It made me want to track down the original series.
