DIRECTIONS
The venue is easy to find. The Pig and Whistle (inc Centre Stage)
is close to the main road to Bournemouth (A338 / Wessex Way).
From the north east direction (Southampton, Ringwood etc) the Spur Road (A338) becomes Wessex Way.
At second roundabout on the Wessex Way (Bournemouth West Roundabout) take left.
Go to St Michael's Roundabout (about 200 yards) and take last turnoff (ie right) into Poole Road.
Take first right at lights (200 yards) into Queens Road.
Pig and Whistle is a few yards down on the left on the corner. Centre Stage is next door (0 above).
There is a large public car park opposite.....
.... which charges £1 after 6pm.FOOD ?
The venue usually offers a good choice of basic pub food. However if there is no chef working in the kitchen, they don't mind you bringing in takeaways from neighbouring takeaway businesses.
So yes - there is always food available - but do get in early if you want to be sure of a table. Doors to the public are at 7.15pm.
