Writes Robert Sayers from City estate agents Frank Harris and Company:
“During the recent ‘heat-wave’ I decided to do something different for a change – eat in the Barbican. In the sixteen months I have worked here, I have never actually eaten my lunch at the Barbican Centre, but the crowded patio enticed me to go and explore the Barbican Lounge.
“So, I found myself walking along the sun drenched patio, by the water, and forgot I was actually in Central London for a few moments. It felt more like the Costa Brava!
“I took a walk around the main restaurant and found a very good selection of high quality and reasonably priced international foods. From a fresh salad or sandwich, to smoked salmon and other hot dishes, the choices available were aplenty, and left me with much to ponder, I must say.
“Afternoon tea, Monmouth Coffee and a range of refreshing cold drinks are available, alongside cold beer and wine, should you choose to have a stronger choice of beverage. The desserts on offer also surprised me, with an entire counter dedicated to a selection of sweet treats.
“All in all, I was very pleasantly surprised and would definitely recommend eating here. The other great thing is that it’s all on the flat – so will appeal to everybody wishing to eat here.”
