"Was really heartened to find vegan cake! And not just a token vegan cake, it was one of the best and most enjoyable pieces of chocolate cake I’ve ever bought in a cafe! (And I eat a lot of vegan cake!!) Also saw an option of a vegan pasty on their snack menu. Two slices of cake, a pot of tea, and a can of coke came to £11, which I think is pretty reasonable in the heart of London! Was a cute place to sit and eat it as well."

"Very nice for what it is: a cafe in the basement of a government building. £5.70 for Jubilee Tea: a nice scone with clotted cream, strawberry jam, and a small pot of tea (with milk on the side, where it belongs!). Pleasant and helpful staff. If it weren't for the airport-style security to get inside the Palace of Westminster I would be a frequent patron."
