Food in the London Embassy?

[LauraDP 10]

This is probably the daftest question ever asked on this forum but does the London Embassy permit us to bring in some food? I am just thinking of snacks for the kids to eat while we are there. We are having to stay out at Kew (late notice hotel booking) so will be leaving the hotel to travel in about 6.30am which is a very early start for my kids. They will be as crabbit as badgers from being tired so I don't want them cranky from hunger to boot.

Does anyone have experience of bringing food or drink into the Embassy?

Thanks in advance for any answers to my daft question.

I saw someone review the other day that they'd taken a water bottle in with them. They just had to taste it at the security desk to show it wasn't... whatever they think it might be. So, I think you can take stuff in.

There's a tiny little snack / coffee shop at the front of the waiting area, too. It sells some sandwiches and crisps and things. I didn't look at the prices, though.

Thanks. I will probably bring in snacks but maybe stump up the cash to buy drinks just to avoid the whole liquids thing in that case.

Can you tell that I am one of life's over-planners?

I was thinking more over-worrying than planning. Nothing wrong with being prepared!

Yes. They make you taste it though- in my case, orange juice and water.
