Coram’s Café

The museum’s café is located in one of the larger classical rooms at the front of the building. They serve morning pastries, homemade soup, as well as a hot dish of the day, including North African specialties, freshly-made salads, panini, baked potatoes, cakes, and afternoon cream teas. Coram's Café is open to the public and museum visitors which makes it a great place to start your day’s sightseeing in central London. In good weather, they move some tables and chairs outside so you can enjoy the sunshine. They also offer a take-away option so many locals pop in for a coffee they can take with them. Prices are good value, for example a pot of tea was only £1.10. Soya milk is available.

As with the whole Museum, children are welcome and highchairs are provided for the younger visitors.

Coram’s Café Opening Hours:
Tuesday – Saturday: 10am – 5.30pm
Sunday: 12pm – 5.30pm
