The location was great it was easy to get to and had a kind of relaxed vibe. Low lighting coupled with crazy unreadable menus that needed to be back lit on the table as a kind of USP was overkill and made it unnecessarily hard for my friend to read. I would suggest including a standard menu as an option. The menu is surprising as it was very expensive and the meals were akin to what you would expect in a McDonald’s. I enjoyed my salad but the burgers were just awful, so bad that the children refused to eat it and that’s saying a lot considering my kids will eat anything “burger” if hungry enough! We did inform staff that there was a problem but they seem to not really care. She did offer the children an ice cream. Frankly we shouldn’t have been charged for the meals. Cardboard burgers & silly unreadable menus, flavour was awful. Overpriced. Would not go back.

Just had to tell you about this cool spot I found at the Science Museum – The Diner Cafe. It’s like finding an oasis in the desert, especially with all the kiddos running wild in the museum. But the real MVP here is Stefany, the manager. She’s all kinds of awesome, making sure everyone’s having a good time and dishing out fun facts about the exhibits. You can tell she loves her job, and it totally shows. Now, the eats! I dove into the vegan menu and, oh boy, was I blown away. The vegan pizza and the margerita were to die for. Despite the place being swamped, the crew was on their A-game, keeping tables clean and the wait short. Well done to the whole team and the pizza chef too!

**we're American tourists, just hungry for lunch** The burgers are dull, flavorless, and over priced. We got the BBQ pulled pork (10.50) and Cajun Chicken burger (11.95) with sweet potato fries. (3.50) The sourdough bun wasn't good on either burger. I also asked for no coleslaw on mine and it still was put in. The pulled pork itself isn't bad with the BBQ sauce. The Cajun Chicken however holds no flavor. The guacamole is the only thing you can really taste. The chicken doesn't taste seasoned at all. Absolutely boring. The sweet potatoes fries feel like they came from a frozen bag and heated up in the oven and left out to serve to customers. Wouldn't recommend.

Went there last month with my friend . We were shown the place to seat (no chance to choose it for ourselves). There were plenty of empty tables on the back, but it seemed like the staff wanted to keep everybody at the front. We were sat at the table next to family of 5, with 3 laud kids, and back to a couple with a toodler who cried for the whole time we were eating. Surely not a great combination. I think staff should use their common sense and not put adults without kids to seat at the table with and next to families with kids, when there is plenty empty tables on the other side. To be fair - waiter who served us was very nice and the food was not too bad, But it was all ruined at the end - when a waiteress came to clean up one of the tables and she used ONE CLOTH to wipe the table and the BENCH people were sitting on and kids were putting their shoes on. Doesnt look like the staff had a good food hygiene and infection control training in there. Won't be visiting that...

Had the unpleasant experience of eating the overpriced and very poor food here. For £13.50 + 10% service charge I had a rubbery piece of chicken that was nothing like its southern fried name, a pile of fries and a tiny corn on the cob. Not only was it poorly presented but tasteless.

They state that by eating there you're helping the science museum, but this is an outsourced catering company. In reality you're better off buying a sandwich from Pret for a few quid and putting £5 in the donation pot. You'll not only have a better lunch and save money but the museum will be better off too.

Alternatively try the Energy Cafe at the entrance, it's cheaper and the food much...
