Milton Keynes Theatre given award

It won the title at the Milton Keynes Food and Leisure Awards, which aims to showcase the best restaurants in and around Milton Keynes, uncover fabulous tasting dishes in the city, seek out the most talented local chefs and recognise the best family and leisure locations in Milton Keynes.

Residents voted for the leisure venues that they felt offer value for money, fun for groups, families and couples and a good food choice.

Mike Keane, general manager of Milton Keynes Theatre, said: “We are delighted to have been voted as best attraction in MK.

“2013 is shaping up to be a fantastic year for the theatre. The introduction of our new piano bar which serves a selection of light meals has enhanced the experience we can offer our customers.

“We have seen more and more people coming along to visit the theatre for the first time to enjoy a variety of fantastic live productions, breaking all previous box office records.”
