Birmingham is possibly the best and in a beautiful building, and the restaurant- is excellent--also the people who work there really enjoy their jobs and it all helps. Compton Verney is lovely and only just in Warwickshire with a good meals room.
Sometime you may like to try Nuneaton Riversley Park museum. They have some pretty good exhibitions there too.The last one was excellent. Photographs of poor in the outbacks of America in the 20s and 30s. Unfortunately the tearoom has closed which was excellent. It did not lose money but didn't make enough profit for the council so they are going to put it out to tender . In the meantime the number of visitors are down. Which will give them an excuse--or reason-- not to open it again. The nearest cafe is in the town or Asda up the ring road-a good walk, and who wants to sit in Asda on a cultural trip.It would certainly kill my mood.
One of the nicest things of a museum is being able to sit down every now and again with a cuppa and go back to see the rest of the exhibits.
