Moriarty (2011)
“It was sumptuous, yet somehow managed to capture the air of a private club. Possibly this was because its clientele was made up mainly from people who worked in the business of writing and publishing newspapers.
Located on the second floor of a building tucked away in an as-yet unadopted, narrow road running off Fleet Street, parallel to Chancery Lane, The Press Dining Room was ideal for journalists and editors working nearby, who could eat there in some style and much better than they could at... home in Wimbledon, Woolwich, or Putney. Certainly, some of these good people used The Press like a club and they would often bring names to have luncheon or dine there—the kind of names that were well known, and who made the news: Politicians, men of business, actors, writers, captains of industry, and men of the cloth would all be taken to this large, elegant room on the second floor of a building owned outright by Moriarty, upon which he got a good return for letting all but that floor, mainly to newspapers and their publishers, or those working for firms adjunct to the papers.MoreLess
