Pont de Londres

À propos du restaurant

The Ivy Tower Bridge offers a nearly identical menu to The Ivy Market Grill, excluding any of their daily specials. They feature all-day dining options and a dedicated brunch menu. If you are in South East London, try The Ivy Tower Bridge for one of the best brunches in the city. Depending on your mood, start with a white onion soup, a crispy duck salad, or some oak-smoked salmon. Once again, you can choose from so many incredible main dishes, including eggs royale with chips, hot buttermilk pancakes with berries, or even a grilled whole lobster.

À propos du restaurant

Although diners first come to The Riding House Cafe to try the beloved menu, they come back due to this modern cafe’s neighborly hospitality. Serving breakfast throughout the week, the restaurant has built a name for itself as one of the best breakfast spots in London. However, for those who treat themselves on the weekend, their brunch receives just as much praise. With a menu that is certainly worth writing home about, you will be able to sample a chorizo hash, a Benedict burger, a soy and honey pork belly sharing dish, and so much more. No matter how hungry you are or what you’re in the mood for, there is something for everyone. There’s even a roast chicken meal for two, complete with roasted vegetables, stuffing, and gravy.

If you’re a lover of brunch, Balthazar has pulled out all the stops. Not only do they serve brunch each Saturday and Sunday, but they also serve their “petit brunch” both days.

For those in a hurry, they also offer croissants, cinnamon buns, fresh fruit salad, and more. Their brunch menu is much more extensive, serving some of the best brunch dishes in London. Where else can you find lobster spaghetti, a French veal T-bone, or caviar for brunch? During this time, you can also order everything from avocado on toast with poached eggs to their cherry and goji berry granola.

À propos du restaurant

Soho-based NOPI offers diners a dynamic setting and a menu that celebrates bold flavors. This two-story establishment is cohesive, yet gives guests a choice of two separate atmospheres. Upstairs is more formal, making it the perfect place for any special occasion. Breakfast is typically served downstairs, where communal dining tables overlook the kitchen. Although the service and overall dining experience are certainly memorable, it is their menu at NOPI that makes it one of the best places for breakfast in London. Sample their scrambled tofu on sourdough with rose harissa and avocado salsa; or their French toast served with star anise sugar, berry compote, and orange yogurt. For meat lovers, add a side of Lake District sausage or streaky bacon.
