The Best Places for a Working Lunch in London

If you do one of the thousands of office support jobs in London, you’ll recognise the importance of a working lunch. Sometimes, you simply need to refuel while you carry on. At other times, you need to use the lunch opportunity as a chance to meet clients or a supplier. As a London recruitment agency in the heart of Covent Garden, we reveal our five favourite places for a working lunch in London.

1. City Boot

   City Boot in the City is a fabulous little lunch spot that manages to blend stylishness with informality. The food here is fairly classic British and you can grab a glass of something refreshing to wash it down with or a glass of wine from Davy’s Wine Merchants.

   The setting is ideal for lunch with colleagues accompanied by a catch-up chat without being too far from your City desk.

2. Sticks ‘n’ Sushi

   One of our local haunts, Sticks ‘n’ Sushi offers something slightly different for a working lunch in London. Of course, what’s great about sushi is how easy it is to read or make notes, and still enjoy your meal.

   The menu is jam-packed with fresh veg, meat, and fish. What’s more, the creative presentation may just inspire you for an afternoon of creativity back in the office.

3. Timmy Green

   Absolutely ideal if you’re meeting clients coming into Victoria station, Timmy Green offers fantastic bottomless brunches or even just a relaxed coffee. The food here is focused on prime meats and enjoyable sharing platters, all with an Australian twist.

   If you’re here on a nice day, enjoy working and eating outside. Inside, you’ll find complete peace and an ideal place to make progress with discussions. There’s also the option of hiring Timmy’s for private parties if you need a larger-scale working lunch.

4. Smollensky’s at Canary Wharf

   It’s all about the burgers at Smollensky’s in Canary Wharf. If you’re feeling indulgent and looking for a boozy working lunch, then there’s also the option of sumptuous cocktails. Sitting right next to the underground station at Canary Wharf, Smollensky’s is an ideal meeting place in this area of London. It’s perhaps more traditionally known for after-lunch drinks, but there’s also the opportunity for a great working lunch.

5. Royal Quarter Cafe

In the heart of Westminster, beautifully light and airy, is the Royal Quarter Café. This is the perfect place to head for a working brunch or lunch, where you can expect either outstanding pastries or an international menu to whet your appetite, depending on what you fancy.

This is a friendly café that’s all about good honest food, making it an easy place to chat with colleagues or even take a client.

It’s great to be productive over lunchtime. Fortunately, we’re in a city rich in places to grab a bite to eat whilst being in a setting conducive to discussion, brainstorming, and creative vibes. So if you work in office support roles or PA jobs, make note of these top lunch venues for your next working lunch.
