    For a restaurant built under the Waterloo East railway line to Charing Cross, we were very surprised to find a venue that could be anywhere in London. Ideally located 40m from the Waterloo main entrance, it offers a fixed price menu offering 2 courses for £26. The Cocktail and wine list is well stocked, and prices are reasonable for London. Perfect if you need a value meal with good service before taking your long-distance train journey. I wish I'd found it earlier!

    Solid food and a strong drink, good location (seeing a show at the National Theatre!), somewhat generic but nice decor, very clean… but the real winner here was the service— kind folks checking in unobtrusively. As a solo woman diner, I didn’t feel like a burden or unsafe at any time.

    Delicious food and drink. Good service. Was given a free complimentary dessert with a candle for my birthday which was a lovely gesture. Exorbitant prices - but we knew that when we booked it.
