Reliable vegan option

The Museum Cafe always has one vegan option. This one - Mexican chilli black beans - was perfectly fine. Other recent and more exciting options included panko eggplant with Japanese slaw, and a spring vegetable plate with zucchini flowers.

Pros: Location overlooking the lake, Natural light, Reliable options

Great to see options

Great to have options at the national museum! Coffee was excellent, savoury pastry was a little bland, but the tart was lovely

Pros: Beautiful view, Convenient for tourists

Cons: Could have more options
