Royal Exchange in City of London

Enjoyed a really lovely meal here, definitely retains the class, charm and pomp of the St James’s location and that helps sell the experience of a quintessentially British menu. I ordered here the Dorset crab and the calves liver and bacon, both of which were delicious but the liver really stood out to me as classic comfort food.The staff were all friendly and attentive if a little slow in service, but you really can’t fault it.Would highly recommend this place to anyone!

We had afternoon Tea at this place. It was brilliant and very tasty. The Tea flavours was fantastic and the scones was best of all the choosings. And after the Tea go to the shop and buy the Tea in beautifully boxes

Was a great experience the locations was really nice and had a good atmosphere. Teas selection was really good and different the sandwiches and cakes was standard

One of my go to places in London for Welsh rarebit which is getting harder and harder to find these days. During times of Covid I actually feel comfortable eating here even though it’s indoors because the building is so large that you can actually feel air currents moving around

Tasty dinner in a beautiful building with friendly and professional service. We enjoyed all our dishes especially the scotch egg and the sea bass. Both desserts were good too. The crumble topping on the apple and rhubarb crumble was the lightest and crispiest crumble I have had. A classic British dessert stylishly delivered.Special thanks to our waiter Roy for his attentive service with a smile.

5 Stars Luxury Experience! We booked with the Virgin Experience for our 2nd Anniversary, we had a delicious and amazing dinner, the food it's incredible tasty and the service is more than perfect! The waitresses were so kind and helpful and they offer us a dessert for our anniversary. They have been amazing and we loved everything!! Absolutely recommended as a restaurant if you want to have a special moment with someone you love. Thank you for this amazing dinner!

Afternoon tea with a touch of Xmas in the stunning al fresco-style surroundings of the Royal Exchange’s spectacular central courtyard with bonus stars lights display probably only in December was well worth the price. Gingerbread mini loaf, pistachio white chocolate bauble and violet choux were nice but not the best, however sandwiches were of quality and scones served with lemon curd in addition to jam and clotted cream were well made. Service was fine. Recommended.

Had an evening meal here through Virgin experiences. We really enjoyed the experience which was very relaxed and casual. The building itself is stunning. The food was delicious, all of it was great quality, although the options were a little limited. The staff were very attentive and made sure we had everything we needed. We were even late for our booking but staff made sure all of our courses were prepared before the kitchen closed.

Fortnum & Mason has a reputation for great food as somewhere so when I found out they had a restaurant in the city I was very keen to go. Unfortunately we left disappointed with our experience. Firstly, the menu we were given on arrival was different to the one on their website (I was particularly looking forward to trying the Beef Wellington which appears on their website in the Dinner menu). The woman, who I believe was the manager,said “we changed the menu today”. We asked for some recommendations and I decided to go for the shrimp burger, however, this was out of stock. Finally, my third choice was the Lobster spaghetti, which although at least available was quite tasteless. The whole experience was pretty underwhelming and not what you’d expect from Fortnum’s. The only good thing was the service from Arthur, who was very friendly and helpful, and served us a lovely tea at the end.

Lovely staff, in relaxed up-market shopping mall eatery and bar, great to dine in such an open large space and admire the architecture. Like most diners we ate with the Virgin experience dinner mene, good selection and great cocktails.
