Lovely cafe with a great selection of food. I thoroughly enjoyed my Brie, apple and cranberry sandwich. At £5.95 I thought it was good value. Staff friendly and service quick

Lovely cafe in the museum. Had a great range of food choices. Food portions are large and the quality is good. Prices are, as to be expected, slightly on the high side but very much worth it. The cafe was airy and spacious and very clean. The condiments were well stocked too. The staff were lovely, clean and quick to help us. Unfortunately there were no high chairs but, given the amount of space available, we could get the buggy to the table with ease. The cake choice was impressive and delicious. We selected just under half of the available cakes and were all impressed.

Excellent, tasty menu with great and changing cakes and traybakes. Can be overwhelmed in the kitchen/at the till when busy, and the dining space can be noisy, but a great stop during a trip to a fantastic museum.
