Experience lunch beneath an extraordinary double hammerbeam roof dating to 1573 in one of England's finest Elizabethan halls. The daily-changing menu features fresh, on-site prepared cuisine, with options for 2- or 3-course meals accompanied by coffee. A bar serves soft drinks, champagne, wine and beer. Lunch is served Tuesday to Friday, 12:00–14:00; the Garden Room offers a more casual alternative with breakfast, lunch, coffee and drinks, 09:00–20:00 Monday to Friday.
Guided tours of Middle Temple's historic buildings depart at 11:00 on Fridays only and must be booked together with lunch. The tour showcases the magnificent Hall with its celebrated oak High Table—said to be a gift from Queen Elizabeth I—and explores the cobbled lanes and gas-lit walkways of this historic legal precinct. The first recorded performance of Shakespeare's Twelfth Night reportedly took place here in 1602. Tours last approximately one hour and require a minimum group of 10 people.
