    It started out being hard to find something but the last time I was there, when I exited the tube in Wimbledon, there was a McDonalds, a Burger King, and a pizza hut in sight.

    I didn't check to see if McDonalds had a "Royale with cheese".

    My wife and I visited France & the UK in October, and I somewhat remember seeing the Royale (or Royal) on a McDonald's menu in France (as I'd heard of before we visited). It looks like McDonald's doesn't have a Royale in the UK.

    I used to travel to London a couple of times a year on business. Got a taste for pub food, but the last day I'd have a craving for a taste of home.
    I rotate between Greggs, the grocery store meal deal (Tesco/Marks and Spencer or Boots), pub food or McDonalds when im there.

    London on an expense account was wonderful. The first morming, we had a
    full english breakfast in the hotel, which cost 25 pounds per person.
    Later that trip, we found a little basement cafe near the hotel with
    wonderful food and a back room. We told them the 5 of us wanted to rent
    out the back room and spend the day there - we spent probably 40 pounds
    for the 5 of us in coffee, pastries and sandwiches, with them checking
    in on us all day.
