St Martin in the Field

It was such a pleasure to visit St Martin in the Field, to eat scones in the Cafe in the Crypt, and to visit the church where both Mozart and Handel performed.
In their words: "This cafe supports St Martin's direct work with asylum seekers, homeless people, young musicians, and all those who strive for peace and understanding. No wonder we need the caffeine."
