Value for money eating in Knightsbridge

Contradiction in terms? Think again...

We know, we know... these two things dovetail about as neatly as a Geordie teaching elocution...*

Who'da thunk it? Knightsbridge/ value for money? Well it appears you don't actually need deep pockets to enjoy some of the area's best eats.

From set-menu deals to mega breakfasts, we've been putting in the research - in between double-parking our Bentley and shopping for diamond shoes - to bring you this list of great value eating.

Enjoy...



* before we get emails of complaint we actually ran this statement past a couple of our Geordie friends and they were fine with it. Well, we think they were fine... couldn't understand a word.
