The Poetry Takeaway serves high quality, personalised Poetry to our diners, written, performed and wrapped up to Takeaway.

Our diverse group of poet chefs are the heart of The Poetry Takeaway, along with the people we meet, the stories they share with us, how we tell them and the amazing places in which we find ourselves.

Take a break, come for a chat and watch the magic happen.


“We guarantee tears, laughter and everything in between”
A special poem written just for you.
