The Lord Mayor’s Show is one of the greatest shows on earth and is the longest-running annual parade in the world to have taken place almost uninterrupted since its inception. Mark the event with lunch at the city’s oldest extant Livery Hall

Our Hall is in a prime location on the show route.  You can watch the show pass on Ludgate Hill or outside St Paul’s, and get to the Hall without having to cross any barriers, then drop down to Victoria Street and watch it all over again – still without barriers!  The Hall is also very handy for Blackfriars Station, and is an excellent place to drop off coats and umbrellas if the sun is shining.

The Hall will be open from 10.00 am.  Tea and coffee will be available; we provide take-away cups so you can dash off to watch the parade (or if you prefer to be environmentally friendly, bring your own reusable, take-away mug and fill up!).  There will be a rolling buffet, with wine, available between 12.00pm and 2.00pm.  Once you have booked, you can drop in at any point between those times, have your lunch, and go back to the show.  That way, you won’t have to worry about rushing off for lunch, just as the parade gets to where you are standing.

Children are very welcome – this will be a very relaxed day, so feel free to bring friends and family.

Refunds, minus a £5 admin fee (per ticket), will be offered, upon request, to anyone cancelling for any reason up to six working days before an event.  After this time, no refunds are available.
