We chose a couple of sandwiches, all of which were all overpriced at £4.65 each, some cake and a couple of mugs of coffee to have at lunch.
Sandwiches were quite imaginative and well filled. We had a smoked salmon and cream cheese bagel (which they offered to sacrilegiously toast) and a salt-beef, avocado and cheese sandwich. These were fresh, well filled, and tasty. The lemon and almond cake was well flavoured and moist. Coffee came in big mugs and was good quality. The bill for this came to £17.65 which I thought was a bit steep for a museum and had we been a family, it would have been a big hit.
I know that some of the better catering contractors now have the franchises for the museums in London, but the cost of eating there is becoming prohibitive. Had we had the will, we could have gone over the road outside to Pret a Manger, and had the same lunch for probably half the price, but possibly not the same quality.
