Absolutely disgusting company. Bought tickets back at the start of 2020, with events being cancelled due to covid. Since then communication has been incredibly poor and no customer service to get ahol... See more

Written by the company

Dinner & Dissection returns for 2022 and we invite you on a journey through Victorian Medicine. Join us as we look back on The Victorian Greats… The Victorian era of Britain saw the industrial revolution bringing wealth and prosperity to the British Isles, at the same time the scientific method began to shine a light on the natural world and provided answers to some of the greatest questions about our existence. Our understanding of the human body, its origins, and anatomical functions accelerated giving rise to much of the advancement that underpins modern medicine today.

It was ok

It was ok. Was it worth the money? No.

The meal was below average. A clearly frozen chicken Kiev and some veg and mash which wasn’t in any way Victorian.

The dissection was interesting but just wasn’t worth the £80 per ticket for what you actually got.

They also ask for people to submit reviews half way through the night to win goodies, which could be why there are so many 5 star reviews…

Food was roasting hot

Food was roasting hot, dessert was yum, half way and information given was brilliantly done, explained well while viewing organs on screens. Sam was very helpful with a query i had and hopefully has it solved. Looking forward to our next one in Elgin on Thursday 😁.
Will definitely attend future events. X

Unique and memorable

The history lesson and hands-on specimen interaction is amazing. The host is very knowledgeable and entertaining. Some of the details could use a little work - i.e. the lighting being too harsh and the potential to really dive further into setting the mood for a Victorian experience.

Good experience overall

Great experience! Not from the medical profession but enjoyed and Understood every aspect due to the super enthusiastic Holly

My only negative would be there was not a Victorian inspired meal which was advertised. We were given chicken Kiev and chocolate cake (which was lovely) but I’m pretty sure this was eaten by the Victorians

Overall I Would recommend

Light hearted, yet very informative, highlighting some of the most exciting parts about Victorian medicine. Food was good too!

Anatomical Architects, a dinner to remember.

To hear dragons den question the interest in a dinner and dissection experience whilst sitting in the audience made me laugh out loud. Sam invited us to introduce ourselves to our fellow diners, and what a wonderful shared experience it was; forensic scientist, zoologist, IT Systems technician, junior doctors, physiotherapist, final year medic. It was wonderful, a shared fascination in the extraordinary, which clearly Sam, Holly and his team of architects are, a multi-sensory exploration in the anatomy and its history. Absolutely superb.

The evening (so far) has been enjoyable. However, we are two hours in and have only had the meal. I was under the impression the meal would be in with the theme for the evening. But, I am intrigued to see what happens next. The constant repeat of the dragons den episode is irritating. Once was fine. The decorations are awesome! And everyone is very friendly

Absolutely fantastic atmosphere

Absolutely fantastic atmosphere, great crew, very educational but not boring in any way, I wanted to know more.
I wanted to get up and join in, as someone very introverted it was all very friendly and the encouragement from everyone was amazing

Holly is the epitome of fantastic and amazing!! She is awesome, shes so knowledgeable and takes so much pride in her job. An absolute asset to her team and 100% would do this again

Alright

Good networking opportunity, or just an opportunity to meet interesting people. There was too much repetition in the background videos. The food was good, but the drink prices were horrendous.

👍🏻

The food was good and cleverly referenced to the flyer given. Kitchen had extras so were distributed to tables instead of going to waste.

Staff were knowledgeable, approachable and overall exciting and enjoyable.

Worth the money.

Informative and fun

Great food followed by informative dissection. Sam, the host, was very fun and super knowledgeable. I would have liked to get started on the gory stuff a bit sooner! Will book on another one soon!
