Having just started working in the Covent Garden area, I often walk past Food for Thought on my lunch break and there is always a queue outside, and this is what attracted my attention. After all, somewhere must be good if people are willing to queue come rain come shine. Let me say that I was not disappointed. I tried the quiche and it was delicious! It had a real home-cooked, wholesome and, above all, healthy taste and was jam packed with ingredients. Although the portion looked small when I got it, once I started eating it was very filling and the rich taste left me feeling satisfied but not overly full. I will definitely return to sample the other dishes. My first impression of the food and the menu is that there is a feeling of love and attention going into these recipes.

The cost was very reasonable (after all, it is central London so prices are hiked up) and there was a good range of prices – suiting all budgets.

In the seating area downstairs the atmosphere was cozy and the restaurant had a friendly clientele. The staff were busy, but still smiling.

In summery, this is one of those places that, if it’s your sort of scene when you walk in, then you won’t be disappointed. I definitely recommend for something a bit different!

Yum! This is a gem of an eatery! Went on a Sunday afternoon so it wasn't too busy. I had a delicious risotto that was creamy, full of flavour and not at all stodgy and it came with a mountain of salad (and not just your boring lettuce, but a fab combination of leaves and sweet peppers) and a chunky piece of garlic bread. My friend had the quiche, which was crammed with veggies and again came with loads of salad. It is a small place, but has a good vibe about it and each table has a big jug of free water on it that was re-filled even before it got empty!

Really good value for money, guilt-free food, and you feel worlds away from the hussle and bustle of central London.

It may be small but the food is tasty and such good value for money, served by welcoming friendly staff. Has a great buzz about it. Need more places like it in London. A true gem.

Sorry I can't agree with the rave reviews. My daughter and I went there after a show. It was cramped, hot and uncomfortable. The toilet was filthy. Our Rogan Josh was okay - not spectacular - and a little on the cold side. Yes its good value (for London) but nothing to write home about.

Great tasting wholesome vegetarian food. Well motivated staff seem genuinely interested in ensuring you have a good meal (rare in London). Cramped seating but for the price it's worth it!

This delight and original restaurant satisfied all the tips I requested previously by internet. The taste of salads, main courses...is just incredible, seeming to be eating delicious meat, with the advantage you´re gaining healthy and conserve yourself slim.

The emplacement is also suprised, I´ll repeat

Food for Thought has really delicious, wholesome meals. I dine out totally guilt-free, assured that my eating experience is not tainted by any kind of cruelty to animals or cruelty to myself. I always leave feeling satisfied. The food tastes like its been made with love!

The ambience, although rustic, has a convivial charm.

we spent a real good time at this pretty little restaurant. The food is delicous and the atmosphere is friendly.You can eat a very big portion of veggies and a soup for less than 8 pounds enjoing the faboulous neal street and covent garden just arond the corner.

Remember to bring with you a very good bottle of white wine!
