Brunswick House Café Restaurant Diner Reviews
"Worth a visit just because of its quirky decor. But the food and service are good enough. A place that one might go to more if you were working nearby. There's a very pleasant bar which is a lovely refuge from the noisy, congested roads around Vauxhall. But no one has yet approached me from M16 to join up."
