I have been a frequent visitor to BHH and have eaten here a number of times the last few months. I don't understand all the complaints. There are a lot of choices and the prices are comparable to the prices at other places. The quality also isn't terrible as some commenters have made it out to be. I've purchased food from different areas and the staff were always helpful and polite.

It's a cafe located inside of Boxhill hospital. They served a very good coffee. They are plenty of healthy foods & drinks options too. Some hot food from bain Marie is so so but good enough for a fast food. Cakes and toasties are well made.
