Pull up a pew

I've been here a few times with work but have also been here with my girlfriend and we had a great night. In case you haven't already seen it, it's like the tardis - a church on the outside but a music venue/restaurant inside with a great atmosphere. I easily booked a table over the phone and the staff on the night were always at hand. They had reserved us a table right near the front of the stage. The entertainment was Diane Shaw, which wasn't exactly my cup of tea at first (it was all of the old motown classics etc) but after a few glasses of wine I didn't care and we were strutting our stuff on the dancefloor like we were the best dancers on the planet. A great night although not cheap.

Great venue - But pricey!

I've seen quite a few acts here now including the Anastasia tribute (which wasn't bad - ok it was!) and a Dirty Dancing Show, which was well below my expectations.... However, I did see the most amazing Rat Pack Band here, they absolutely blew me away! You really have to pick the shows you see here carefully, as they can be a bit hit and miss. The Robbie Williams tribute guy is meant to be amazing though.

Food wise, I've eaten here twice now and found the food to be very expensive and not great at all which is disappointing as the venue itself, a refurbished and highly modernised church, is fab!

On your Marcs....get set...go!

This is a great venue. Converted Church that has the wow factor when you walk in. Sit upstairs or down you'll have a good night out. Food is solid. Not great and it gets a bit cheesy at times with the kind of tribute stuff that the world doesn't need any more of. Always good with a group of you and always worth checking what's on.

Venue is luch

THis place is gorgeous in an dout but could be so more, its pricey to get in just to see tribute bands and the bar gets really busy - I think this would be better as a really fine restaurant with out the Abba tributes that sometimes lower the tone

Been here a few times. Went for an awards ceremony here first of all and being at an entertainments veue that is a converted church is very novel. Have since come back for some of their themed nights and it always has a great atmosphere. Saw a Rat Pack night here and it was fantastic.

Lovely food - great venue

I've been here a number of times. The food is extremely good and was more reasonably priced than I expected from such a swanky venue. I wondered if I'd feel awkward in a converted church but not at all. I've had some great nights out here and am looking forward to experiencing the comedy night soon!

Great atmosphere

Love the idea of this place. Great atmosphere but the food left a lot to be desired the third time! Staff are attentive and the dancefloor is great. Top marks for uniqueness

stunning setting... great venue!

Landmarc is a stunning new venue set in a converted church - your first impression will be 'wow' - I know mine was, and it'll be the same when you sample the food, and the same again if you see an act there. There's regular top musical and comedy acts performing - East 17 brought the roof down (not literally) when they played here last year! A really great night out!

Great venue...

One of Bournemouth's newest venues to make,waves,! (Get it? Oh come on, it's a seaside town!), Landmarc has swiftly become a success due to its unique angle of what it describes as,restaurant theatre,. Basically this means that you can eat and be entertained! at the same time! Fancy! Not such an original idea, but at Landmarc it is done with aplomb. A lot of this has to do with the actual venue itself: they have revamped and upholstered a hardly used church just by The Square into a stunning backdrop for an evening experience. Whilst dining in the (grade-II, darling!) listed building, one can be an audience for a variety of shows, depending on what night you have chosen to visit. The regular,Comedy Store, is extremely popular, as are the copious amounts of tribute acts that perform here. If that is your thing, here is the place to experience it. I personally prefer to frequent of a lunchtime when they have a thoroughly reasonable two courses for a tenner offer on, and the space can be admired in the daylight.

Converted church !

Stylish restaurant in a converted church in the heart of Bournemouth town centre. There is a range of entertainment on offer from worldclass comedians to tribute bands - so there's something to listen to whilst you eat ! There's a variety of dishes on the menu from burgers and pizzas, to a more sophisticated'show' menu. At lunch time they also have a deal of two main meals for £10 ! Definatley a place to check out for its uniqueness !
