Dine -- Bring the little ones along for a delicious and relaxing Nibble+squeak Saturday lunch at The Garden Café. Located in a gorgeous glass and beaten-bronze pavilion building, and linked by connecting cloisters to the London Garden Museum, The Garden Café is already earning early praise from the critics.
Visit -- After the meal, or before, combine with a visit to the Garden Museum itself, on the bank of the Thames looking across to Parliament. Reduced entry is available for Nibble+squeak attendees. Challenge your family to climb 131 steps to the top of the medieval tower for fantastic views across London. #131stepchallenge
