Bush House, London

Earlier this month, GMT, the Bush House canteen, was reviewed in the Food & Drink section of the Financial Times! It's very unusual for one of our catering outlets to be covered in the national press, however this follows positive coverage on our Pacific Quay facilities in Glasgow several months back.

GMT at Bush House received excellent feedback, with the writer describing it as 'phenomenally popular'. The reviewer writes:

"The World Service never sleeps, and the staff broadcasting to its 40 million listeners can buy cheap food here round the clock, with breakfast available from 2am...by lunchtime the place is heaving.

"On a recent visit I chose the oyster salmon – a surprisingly succulent piece of fish with a garlicky parmesan crust. Extras were basic (think school salad bar) but a decent rice pudding left me feeling I’d had excellent value for my fiver.

"Melvyn Bragg recently described this as “far and away the best canteen food on the planet”. I wouldn’t go that far myself, but it’s an undeniably jolly experience."
