CERU Restaurant
Middle Eastern Breakfast
CERU are winning when it comes to breakfast meetings, being just two minutes’ walk from South Kensington station, because the last thing you need when it’s the morning and you’ve probably overslept is to be running around looking for the restaurant.

1 Lombard Street
In the Square Mile
When it comes to location, The Brasserie at 1 Lombard Street, has an enviable seat – it’s in pole position next to Mansion House and directly opposite the Bank of England and is open five days a week for breakfast. If you’re having a conference then their private room, The Botanical Room, can fit up to 60 guests. So, if you work in the Square Mile and are looking for somewhere to host your breakfast meeting, you need to check it out.
Monday – Friday 7:30-9:30am
Where: 1 Lombard Street, London, EC3V 9AA, United Kingdom

The Orange
Bed and Breakfast
If you’re hosting colleagues from outside of London then rather than booking them into some soulless business hotel, we suggest you book them into The Orange. They’ve got four luxury, charming bedrooms (all with king sized beds) and they do a cracking breakfast from 8am. Conducting breakfast over baked eggs with spiced tomato ragout, crème fraiche and grilled flat bread or chilli cornbread, smashed avocado and poached eggs is much better than a quick coffee.
Monday – Friday from 8am
Where: 37 Pimlico Road, London, SW1W 8NE, United Kingdom

The Hospital Club
Covent Garden Member's Club
Covent Garden member’s club, The Hospital Club, is an ideal location to start the day’s business, with secluded spaces and areas for important meetings.

Monday – Friday from 7am
Where: 24 Endell Street, Covent Garden, London, WC2H 9HQ, United Kingdom
