London meet - lunch ideas?

AfterEffect · 25 Oct 2010 at 20:55

Hi all,

Trying to organise a get together (about 15-20 people) in central London. The thing is that the age group is 15-25 so need a reasonably cheap place for lunch (£5) and dinner (£10).

Also needs to be bookable due to the amount of people.

Any ideas? I'm lost

It's for Sat Nov 27th if that helps!

What do you mean by "central"? Where is the meeting place?

For that sort of money, I'd go for Burger King/McD's or failing that a decent greasy spoon.

Go to borough market. Set everyone free to get what they want then meet back in the churchyard/waterfront to munch it.

You can get grilled anything in buns ciabattas etc, awesome pies, raclette, nice fresh salads, falafel wraps, prawn/cajun fish wraps (yum), and so much more.

International would be best to cater for everyone I suppose. Maybe a cheap buffet place? Google is failing me

Meeting place is the south bank (nr. London Eye) but everyone will have a travelcard so a bit of travelling on the tube won't hurt if it means cheaper meals!

Also, as for dinner, how about shad thames. You get a great view of tower bridge and it's a nice walk in the evening. Right next to the design museum.

There's an ASK there so fairly cheap.

lol. I have been going their for years, and I mean years.

My parents used to take me when I was 4 years old so have been going for 30 years now.

The rude waiters still crack me up.

That's the day I'm having my birthday bash! Does this mean you're not coming?

Haha

I can't believe that place is actually in tour books/mags as a recommended place to eat. The only reason to go there is to experience the now legendary rude service.

Lunch I would suggest Spitalfields market near Liverpool Street - there are sooo many food stalls with a variety of stuff you can eat

and a lovely little cafe hidden in the corner.

Dinner: http://www.mediterraneancafe.co.uk/Menu/Set_Dinner.aspx

Set meals £12 for 2 courses. One of my favourite restaurants - family run and near Ox street/Tottenham court road.

what you decided OP

AfterEffect · 25 Oct 2010 at 22:31

Some great ideas but atm it's looking like either the Market or McD's/etc due to the cost...

Stupot_ · 25 Oct 2010 at 23:00

Who are these people?

PMKeates · 25 Oct 2010 at 23:01

£5 for lunch? Have you been to London?!

Wetherspoons is the only option.

bloodiedathame · 25 Oct 2010 at 23:49

Hell, I might even be tempted if Wong Kei is chosen.

You know what, me too. And I'll bring the gf.

Don't think I can make the 27th.

Can we have a poll?

uvarvu · 26 Oct 2010 at 08:56

Lunch? On the South Bank?

I suggest PIEMINISTER! Pie and Mash will be great in this cold weather. The Bristolian lot in here will know what I mean too
