[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't have a specific site but I would try to do lunch at a Pret a Manger with outdoor seating (this is London's version of Panera) OR I would review indoor museum cafeterias to see which would work.

Possibly try Kensington Palace area?  Holyrood Palace in Scotland had open air informal seating in the sandwich bar area.[/quote]

Is it always the same poster who is enamored with Pret?  If Pret is London’s version of Panera than Pret is DC’s version of Cafe Nero.  There are like 10 Prets in DC.  We may have a higher pret per capita than London has.  Drop it with the Pret obsession like it’s something uniquely London.[/quote]

I admit to being a Pret superfan because it solves a lot of kid problems efficiently while still offering decent food for grownups.  I was vaguely aware they had some in the US but I no longer live in the DMV.  And there aren't any of them anywhere near me now.  So I enjoy the convenience when in London.  Where they are everywhere.

Because PP was so rude, and probably works at Farragut North where a lot of suburban parents rarely take their kid to dine, I looked up the actual stats.  There are 270+ locations in London and 8 in DC.  It literally is a London thing and you are lucky to have some.
