Pre-theatre family friendly meal near Drury Lane theatre anyone recommend?

[hulahoopsilove]

going to Drury Lane theatre and would like a nice pre-theatre meal with DS age 9 - walking distance would be nice to theatre

Hi took my dss to see Charlie and the Chocolate Factory at Christmas. We went to Covent Garden tube and in the square is a restaurant called 21 it has seats outside where the entertainers typically like to perform but also has seating inside which is a bit like a cellar with bare brick and one booth has a cool fish tank with exotic fish in, which is quite cool.
The pizza is great, allow about 30mins from ordering so you don't feel like you're clock watching.
We have been here a handful of times and never been disappointed, the pepperoni pizza is yummy :)
The theatre is according to google 3 mins away but allow about 10min minimum what with the London streets being busy.
Reasonably priced and freshly prepared :)

There is a cafe rouge nearby. This website is good

I like bistro 1 on Charlotte street. Is very cheap and cheerful but good food and child friendly. There is a zizzi and other chains on bow street but not my cup of tea.

Or there is a Masala Zone near there which is pretty good.
