Category: Friday Five, Things to do, Food and Drink

There’s plenty to enjoy in Plymouth this weekend, whether you fancy checking out a new restaurant, spending quality time with your family or having a laugh with your mates at a comedy night.

Here’s our pick for this weekend’s top five things to see and do!

Check out the new menu at The Social Bar & Eatery

You’ll find The Social Bar & Eatery in Plymouth city centre, along Mayflower Street. With amazing cocktails and a tasty new menu on offer, pop in for breakfast, lunch or dinner and soak up the sociable atmosphere. Plus, they’re offering 25% off all food if you book a table between now and Sunday!

   

Have a laugh

Two top comedians are performing in Plymouth this weekend. See Geoff Norcott and his ‘I Blame The Parents’ tour on Saturday, or catch Clive Anderson in his first – and much anticipated – solo tour, ‘Me, Macbeth and I’ on Sunday. Both shows take place in The Quad Theatre at Marjons University.

   

Shop local with Fiver Fest

It’s back! The celebration of our local independent shops returns, with lots of unique Plymouth shops offering special £5 deals between 12 to 26 March. Check out all the offers on the Shop 4 Plymouth website.

    

Cuddle cute animals

Spring is nearly here and what better way to celebrate than a trip to Pennywell Farm! Cuddle an adorable miniature piglet, bottle feed hungry lambs and collect eggs from the chickens – children of all ages are guaranteed to love a day out here.

  

Rave with the family

Head to The Soapbox Theatre in Devonport Park for a family friendly rave, suitable for families with kids aged over 5. Together you can enjoy an eclectic mix of dance music, plus there’ll be lots of bubbles, glowsticks and art activities! Find out more and book tickets.

Plymouth is easily accessible by train with a wide range of services running from a variety of locations within England. Although some services may require a change or two.

Travelling from London takes around 3 hours with Great Western Railway, if you're coming from the north, the trip from Manchester can take 5 hours 15 minutes.

Alternatively, the recently renovated Night Riviera Sleeper service runs Monday – Friday and Sunday evenings. Visit gwr.com/sleeper for more details on times and how to book. We recommend using GWR.com to search for the fastest and best route for your journey, and book in advance for the best price.
