The Pavilion

he original refreshment Pavilion was built in 1888. It attracted unwanted attention in 1913 when suffragettes burnt it down. They had previously destroyed orchids and smashed glass panes in three of the orchid houses.

A temporary tea pavilion was erected in 1914, which was eventually replaced in 1920 with the current Pavilion Restaurant, designed by the Office of Works in a functional style.

It's now a licensed family self-service cafeteria.
