what The MERL café has:
• teas, locally made hot chocolate, bespoke filter coffee
• assorted cold drinks
• biscuits, snacks, cakes

what The MERL café doesn't have:
• terrible velociraptors

it's so important for us that you feel comfortable, welcomed and safe whilst visiting The MERL, which is why we invested in the highest quality velociraptors we could find

also we don't have Sam Neill. although fortunately we are a museum rather than an errant, morally dubious billionaire played by Richard Attenborough

book your free visit to The Museum of English Rural Life. that's free to visit AND free from dinosaurs! http://merl.reading.ac.uk/visit-us/ 

@NHM_London the streets are calling for velociraptors. Can you answer? https://twitter.com/aifendragon/status/1306192652606541827
