Set in the intimacy of historical book cases, in the former Member's Library of the Greater London Council, this British restaurant with modern twist, is offering contemporary dining from its seasonal menu created by award winning Head Chef Jamie Welch and a perfectly paired wine list. With unparalleled views, classic elegance of the crystal cut wine glasses and crisp white linen, The Library is the perfect place to celebrate, no matter the occasion.
