Jun 14, 2026"Such a gem the Cafe@Westminster Cathedral!Pit stop for lunch! Had the most scrumptious jacket potato with cheese, ham & red onion. Sooo good! And the walnut home made cake was a total hit. They have quite an extended menu with hot soup, freshly made sandwiches, scones, salads & dessert. The sweetest, kindest staff ever! Totally worth the visit!"

Jun 10, 2026"This cafe was recommended to me by a Sister. The staff here are so welcoming, friendly, kind, and caring. They are able to cater to food allergies and the atmosphere is very cosy and quiet. The selection of food is quintessentially British classics and wonderful morning/afternoon options. You need to pay in cash. Everything is modestly priced for Central London. Highly recommend!"
