The food was delicious and staff were very helpful and considerate when our daughter was unwell. Thank you very much.

The tofu and broccoli salad would have been fine if it hadn't been showered in a gallon of soy sauce. Same with my friend's salmon salad which was overpowered by mustard sauce. Service was matter-of-fact and the atmosphere was bustling. As far as museum canteens go, this one doesn't rank all that high based on our experience.
