Cellarium Café and Terrace
Cellarium Café & Terrace is a charming café and casual dining spot set within the historic precincts of Westminster Abbey in central London. Housed in part of the 14th-century cellarium—originally where Benedictine monks stored food and drink—the venue continues the Abbey’s long tradition of hospitality in a unique medieval setting.
Visitors enter through the Abbey’s stunning cloisters to discover a relaxed, two-floor space offering breakfast, lunch, snacks, afternoon tea, coffee and light meals with British-style options and seasonal treats. The lower level showcases historic vaulted architecture, while an upper terrace provides a bright spot with views over the Abbey, ideal for a break while exploring one of London’s most iconic landmarks.
The Cellarium Café & Terrace is available for private hire, offering a distinctive event setting within the historic cloisters of Westminster Abbey. Combining medieval architecture with modern facilities, it is ideal for receptions, private dinners, meetings and corporate events. Guests enjoy exclusive use of the space, tailored catering, and a truly memorable atmosphere in one of London’s most iconic locations.
