Synopsis

John Pilger's new documentary, The Dirty War on the NHS, "goes to the heart of the struggle for democracy today", he says. Britain's National Health Service, the NHS, was the world's first universal public health service. Designed to give millions of people "freedom from fear", the NHS today is under threat of being sold off and converted to a free market model inspired by America's disastrous health insurance system, which results in the death every year of an estimated 45,000 people. Now President Trump says the NHS is "on the table" in any future trade deal with America. Filmed in Britain and the United States, this timely, compelling documentary touches us all and reveals what may be the last battle to preserve the most fundamental human right.

Our Pawsome Dog-Friendly screenings are a chance for you to bring your furry friend along for a day at the movies. The lights are left on low during the film and the volume is also reduced for the comfort of your pooch. We provide bowls of water as well as the odd biscuit to make sure they enjoy the experience too, recommend bringing along a blanket.

THE GROSVENOR CAFE

UK and International Restaurant & Bar Design Awards-winning venue and so much more. Our combination classic & contemporary menus and a busy programme of live entertainment, evening classes and kid stuff every week mean we are a true West End hub.

We believe in equal rights for little people - especially when it comes to great food - which is why our "Kids' Menu" consists of half portions for half price from our A La Carte.

From classic toy cars to boardgames to a heaving dressing up box, we've got plenty to keep the little ones entertained while you enjoy a relaxing lunch. There's also free face painting at the weekends!

THE GARDENER

Keep it simple and do what you love

That’s pretty much what we’re all about, we’re a small team, so we keep it simple and we love what we do. We’re a family of botanists, cocktail freaks, coffee aficionados, music lovers, shoulder shufflers and hungry people who love good grub and a good bit of chat. We’ve made ourselves a little home on Ashton Lane so we can share all the stuff we love doing the most.
