REVIEWS OF Court Restaurant at The British Museum
Andy (9 August 2009)
I went there for lunch on a Wednesday and this was one of the best meals I enjoyed this year, the setting is perfect and the service is impeccable. Also the waiters are very helpful and accommodating, have scallops as an appetizer and beef to follow, then you will fall in love with this place, well done to the whole brigade for such a great experience.

I went there for an evening meal after the Hadrian exhibition and it was fantastic. Fairly quiet, great service, beautifully presented food, and delicious. The best food I've had for the price in London.

Featured Group Restaurant
Nando's - Brunswick
With quality food, friendly staff, quick service and excellent value for money, Nando's is a great place to eat. Don't expect identikit, pre-fab restaurant interiors which are usually a staple of the larger chains; each restaurant is tailored to its local surroundings and customers, offering up a unique restaurant experience to go with the equally unique taste of legendary, Portuguese, Peri-Peri chicken.
