Plough Inn Wingfield

The Plough Inn is Les Routiers classified and we enjoyed good food there.
The only music is from a tiny radio on the bar, which the landlord is happy turn off upon request.
This music was in no way a problem for us, since it cannot be heard at all from the conservatory.

Quoting from their website:

"The Plough is a pretty, thatched country pub with a lovely atmosphere, low ceilings, oak beams and an open fire.

Situated at the very top of Tate Modern, the restaurant has one of the finest views in London north towards St Paul's. Try to get a window seat for a view of Wren's masterpiece. Tate Modern Restaurant has a reasonable fixed-price menu (two courses for £17.50). The service is friendly but a bit unco-ordinated at times. Do book.
The other cafés in Tate Modern also seem to be muzac-free.
