The Telegraph Room is an exclusive side entrance and lounge to the Fox Theater, located on the ground floor to the left of the theater. Before you get in someone will scan your tickets and confirm you have access to the space. As you enter you will see the coat check on the left side and the “host” will greet you. Coat check is free as part of the upgrade.
The lounge features a full bar (glass and plastic cups), lounge seating, two gender neutral bathrooms, and separate entrance to the Fox Theater. They also have a TV on the wall showing the stage, but with no sound.
All the staff was very friendly and eager to assist.
The bar featured signature cocktails (menu on the website), as well as beer and wine. All the alcohol was extra.
The night I went for food they had empanadas in 4 different flavors. They were huge and very filling. You were able to eat as many as you’d like and they kept putting out more. But they were only sitting under heat laps and thus only room temp. Next to that was a sad looking coffee station. On a couple tables they had Hershey chocolates. Someone passing out hors devours would have taken it to the next level.
The bathrooms were nice, clean, and modern. They also had mints in the bathroom.
Up charge was $50+ per person to get into the Telegraph Room. Nice upgrade if your trying to impress a date or want to indulge. Come early to get the most out of it.
Opportunities: The coat check was too close to the door with the greeter, fighting against the crowd upon the show ending to get back into the Telegraph room was a nightmare, the execution of the food and coffee needs to be improved. Hot food should be served hot. And a coffee station should have the coffee labeled with the type.
