Our café is a showcase for traditional British baking serving up such homemade delights as Richmond maids of honour, Wiltshire lardy cake, Chelsea buns and Victoria sandwich cake. We also serve delicious soups and sandwiches and have a daily changing menu of salads and savoury tarts.
Further choice is available from the Barrow in the Crypt where you can pick your own ploughman's lunch, choosing from a variety of British cheeses, cured meats, pickles and artisan breads; many of these ingredients coming from nearby Borough and Spitalfields Markets.
The Restaurantat St Paul's
Afternoon tea 3pm - 4.30pm Monday to Saturday
Our restaurant menu includes a fixed price lunch, again using the best seasonal ingredients, with 2 courses for £20 or 3 for £24.
