UK City Guide City Entertainment Guide
This UK City Guide features extensive listings for helping you plan a trip to a UK town or city. Click on the name of a town or city on the left of the page, and choose from the activities and entertainment facilities listed on the right. In each of these sections, you will find reviews and descriptions of the best, the most popular and the most unique facilities and venues in your chosen area.
For those seeking cultural pursuits, you will find a list of the art galleries, theatres and museums in your town or city. Details of large civic venues and small, private enterprises are given, providing information about past events, upcoming events, the location and the building itself. For up to the minute listings information, you should contact the gallery, theatre or museum on the contact numbers given.
Details of popular restaurants are also given. You will find examples of fine dining restaurants, cafes, family-friendly establishments and more, sourced from a comprehensive mix of customer responses, broadsheet reviews, restaurant guides and first-hand experience. The restaurant details that you find here should allow you to make an informed decision when selecting a venue for your evening out. It is possible to reserve tables in most of the establishments, so contact numbers have been provided.
For those planning a more lively evening out, information about pubs, bars, nightclubs and live music venues are also given. Major venues are listed with smaller, unique establishments; CAMRA-recommended real ale bars are noted, along with rock-themed pubs, ex-workingmen’s clubs and chic cocktail bars. Guides to prices and jukebox-contents have been given where appropriate.
Most UK towns and cities are now home to a range of shopping facilities, including in-town and out-of-town shopping centres and malls, markets and shopping quarters. Details are where to find these shopping centres and the retailers based there are listed, alongside times and dates of wholesale and farmers markets, and the location of shopping streets or quarters in the city/town centre.
The section regarding sporting facilities and venues provides details of swimming pools, leisure pools, golf courses, ice-skating rinks, bridal paths, and more, which can be found in the area. Many UK towns and cities are now home to Olympic-standard equipment and facilities, and many sporting teams have opened their training facilities to the public. These venues and facilities are listed here, with details of how to book and/or find them.
Contact numbers (with area codes) are given for all the main venues, and these were correct at the time of being uploaded.
There is a wealth of information to be found online regarding restaurants, nightclubs, pubs, and other commercial establishments, but largely this is limited to the company's own advertising and subjective reviews by (usually disgruntled) customers. This guide is special in that it is independent and objective; and as such, it is hoped that this site will provide an indispensable guide for visiting towns and cities around the UK.
