Alexandra GoldsteinDecember 28, 2014Three good hot meals daily (eg fish cakes, Thai red curry & sausage & mash) plus great sandwiches, salads and cake. Members get a discount. Free tap water jugs.
London Symphony OrchestraSeptember 16, 2011Smashing informal cafe on Level G in the Barbican Centre. Pick from one of three hot dishes, salad bar, and daily soup choices. The cakes are incredibly tempting!- Friederike WildMay 16, 2017Delicious Matcha Latte with almond milk. Enjoy sitting outdoors next to the fountain.
My new favourite place to work outside in London. Good coffee too.
MaríaFebruary 19, 2015Wonderful cake selection, although at the end of the day they are a bit dry. Go for the tarts or brownies then.
NoMade InMongoliaApril 12, 2015Edible old food (Fish and chips, curry). Nice view and atmosphere, more suitable for drinks.
Nico MacdonaldMay 3, 2016Good pizzas, purchased by the slice. We were trained to make pizza dough and calzone by their chefs.
CatAugust 20, 2012Lovely place to eat outdoor. Beware of the daring pigeons that flies up to your table and trying to steal food while you eat.
JustinJanuary 18, 2015Sit and gaze out over the wonderful fountain/pool/courtyard area with a coffee and slice of cake
SietedeoctubreMarch 21, 2014Amazing cakes! Good place if you need to work on your computer. Quite noisy at lunch time though.
Tony ConstantinidesDecember 4, 2015Good selection, nice atmosphere, nice place to walk off the meal after!
ig: tidyairportsJuly 22, 2013Always have a thought out vegetarian option for dinner. Balanced meals all round.
Kristof KeermanJune 28, 2013I agree with most of the comments... But it just looks great got forgotten...
Paola Bassanese EnergyaFebruary 15, 2012Try the rich dark chocolate and pecan torte laden with aromatic cinnamom!
Burt SimpsonAugust 11, 2012Insanely priced dog food. So no surprised, you are in London in the end...
Shannon ZAugust 10, 2014Overpriced, mediocre food, certain staff was rude, small portions of salad. Nothing is gluten-free!
Drew GrahamDecember 11, 2023The Christmas turkey flat bread tasted like warmed up wet cardboard for £8.50. Fuck off.
Craig NorthamDecember 27, 2010Food looks good, but at what price?!? Not to mention how bad the coffee was...get a decent barrista! (or a second one do he doesn't have to rush as much!)
Coffee is pretty poor considering the Monmouth coffee beans, poor baristas's. Pricey.
Laura GoodmanJune 3, 2011The food really hasn't improved. Poor for veggies and vegans especially. Note: prawns are not vegetarian
Geir FreyssonSeptember 26, 2011Remind me not to come here again. Below average grub at high prices. And not enough seats.
