Royal Nepalese Embassy, London - Visa information
(No need to get there early, well in January at least....! I didn't see more than 10 people there when I applied for and then returned to collect my visa the next morning. If you ignore the hour I waited from 9am to 10am for the Visa section to open, during which time I was joined by 5 other "queue-beaters", the waiting time was less than 5 mins.)
