I should have realised when they said it was a "buffet". Overpriced. Awful food. Bad coffee. Service very bad but friendly. Me "Please could i have some toast" Waitress is...” more...

You arrive into what looks like a 1980s office block for the ministry of dullards. Once past the security staff you arrive in a 100 foot high atrium. Painted cream and gold. A bit like a Cricklewood...” more...

Big pots of tea. Slightly incongruous to be in a pub decor (smelt ever-so-slightly of last night's beer. Not good for pastries. Worth a punt if...” more...

The drinks are expensive and the clientèle is there to luxuriate in its faux-exclusivity. The photos from Donovan are great, and for the more adventurous be sure to check out the "bum corner".
