Came across this gem last week during a guided tour of Westminster and returned for lunch afterwards. Two of us had the beetroot, feta, walnut & puy lentil salad and our friend had the leek pie. All the food was delicious and freshly prepared and brought to our table promptly. If you're anywhere near Parliament or Westminster Abbey, you really should seek it out!
