If anyone has a nice restaurant to recommend for a father and his 11 yo daughter in the city centre that would be much appreciated! I think we would both enjoy a pub type atmosphere.

Bobo, did you mean London? Or Southend Airport? There is a Holiday Inn next door to EGMC with a restaurant. Please also note, that in the UK an actual pub might have and age restriction to enter (at least according to some of my colleagues who can’t enter some pubs with their 16-17 year-olds).
In London we recommend our friends The Swan restaurant at The Globe (as in Shakespear’s Globe theater) for some local experience.
Yes, that would be London!

Lore of the Land (Marylebone)
Jugged Hare (City/Barbican – also at the bottom of my street!)
The Orange (Chelsea)
Glassblower (Soho)
More in the “nice” pub category, with good food.

Thanks all, I was planning to fly over tomorrow late afternoon and back again on saturday, but there is an occluded front in the way, and it looks pretty active too. We’ll have to postpone our visit. I have been googling some of your restaurant suggestions and it will be hard too choose! Can’t wait to go.
