Medieval Times

Knights and feudalism

Medieval Times is a chain of dinner theater restaurants where guests eat with their hands while watching jousting, sword fighting, and other staged tournaments set in a medieval castle atmosphere.

The experience combines entertainment with themed dining: We took the kids to Medieval Times for his birthday.

The name is sometimes used loosely for the historical medieval period itself, though this conflates the attraction with actual history.
