Great food and service at a cafeteria in the basement of Salvation Army's HQ in London.

The location was only 250m from our hotel room near the Millennium Bridge, and we dined there 3 times because of the low price and high quality.  The coffee was better than our hotel for half the price ---a full English breakfast was only £6.80 (hotel charges £12).

The staff was very friendly and we recommend this place to anyone wanting decent food on a budget.

Cafe 101's food is very reasonably priced, fresh cafeteria food in a clean, light filled environment. It's located just before the Millennial Bridge in the world headquarters of the Salvation Army. We rested up there after visiting St Paul's on our way to cross Millennial Bridge to Tate Modern.  

It is down stairs. But there is a glass elevator (!) to take you down if you need it. 

This is a good chance to keep in your food budget for the day. Once you get inside the Tate Modern, cafe fare is expensive.

Ok, you know what? I really need to re-review this place since I have been coming lately A LOT. I like the feeling of the home made food and guess what? Now it is warm, not like before. The staff seems lovely and even accept credit cards now.
The salads are really good and the price is good too, 3.80. More quantity than in Pret. They have nice paninis, jacked potatoes, two plates of the day, vegetable quiche and plenty of cakes and sweets to choose from. Oh yes, and fruit.

Good option if you are in the area, don't have too much time to wait for your food to be ready, but you are looking for home made food.

Very good, moderate prices. Usefully halfway between the Tate Modern and St Paul's - on the walk down to the footbridge.

c252d8b6-de5b-447d-8323-c65e0c455998

We go here whenever we are in London. The hot menu is limited but exciting and there is an excellent range of cold food and salads. Excellent value for money and really handy for St Pauls and Tate Modern.
