Just round the back of the cathedral, you’ll find the George Street Canteen tucked away in a courtyard. We’re not sure what it used to be but now it’s a café that does great breakfasts.

We went there after parking in the car park near the Westminster Lodge leisure centre (two hours free parking by the way) and walking up to the cathedral via a trip to the playground in Verulamium Park. It was warm enough to sit outside and enjoy a sausage sarnie, a goat’s cheese and sundried tomato scone and a couple of cappuccinos.

 

 

There were a couple of other families at the café and they seemed very welcoming of young children.
