Top London Restaurants for Brunch

6 Restaurants
There are few more exciting propositions than going for brunch. The breakfast/lunch combo we all love to love is the ideal setting for a long-overdue catch up with friends and, since it's usually a weekend occurrence, we have the time to take it at a leisurely pace and enjoy both the delicious food and the great company. It's also the only time apart from Christmas that it’s acceptable to drink before midday – cheers to brunch!

Bellanger
9 Islington Green, Islington, N1 2XH London
££ · Mediterranean Cuisine

With many of them inspired by the grand cafés of Europe, you can generally rely on a restaurant from The Wolseley Group when it comes to brunch – whether it’s eggs every which way at Delaunay or a selection of gröstl and rösti at Fischer’s. Bellanger, for its part, is a French-inspired neighbourhood spot overlooking Islington Green. Their weekend brunch selection includes – in line with the general pan-European slant to the menu – eggs Basquaise, which features a chorizo, tomato and red pepper ragout.

Bombay Bustle
29 Maddox Street, Mayfair, W1S 2PA London
££ · Indian

Sunday brunch Mumbai-style comes courtesy of this charming, train-themed restaurant, which pays homage to the culture and people of India. The menu offers everything from chaat and pao to curries and kebabs. To try a popular breakfast favourite in Parsi households, go for the Akuri Truffle Naan, a kind of spiced scrambled eggs; if you're feeling hungry, then the feast-like 'Brunch Bundle' to share is a great option.

Kudu
119 Queen's Road, Peckham, SE15 2EZ London
£££ · South African

If you’re a Peckhamite then you’ll doubtless have heard of this buzzy South African bistro. But if you haven’t yet been in for brunch, then what are you waiting for? They’re open 11am-2.30pm Saturday and Sunday, meaning you can indulge yourself in brunch dishes from shakshuka with parmesan crisps & burnt kale to Boerewors with a fried egg. Everything on offer at this Bib Gourmand spot packs in plenty of flavour, at an appealing price tag.

Santo Remedio
152 Tooley Street, Southwark, SE1 2TU London
££ · Mexican

This lively, colourful spot serves bottomless brunch at the weekends between 12 and 4.30pm; sip margaritas as if in Mexico, surrounded by vibrant décor, tropical plants and happy faces. The bottomless option gives you 90 free-flowing minutes of the classic cocktail – or alternatively cava, sangria, wine or beer. These are enjoyed alongside your choice of two dishes from the brunch menu, which includes tacos, tostadas and flautas (rolled tacos).

The Park
2 Queensway, Lancaster Gate, W2 3RX London
£££ · American

As its apt name suggests, this big and buzzy brasserie is situated on the doorstep of Hyde Park and Kensington Gardens – making it perfect for a brunch-and-stroll Sunday morning in the lesser-spotted London sun. It’s actually the ‘Breakfast’ menu (served until 11.30am) that offers the best choice of morning treats, with an American-inspired array of bagels, pancakes, doughnuts and muffins. There’s a substantial range of egg dishes too, which continue being served until 4.30pm on the weekend ‘Brunch’ menu.

The Wolseley
160 Piccadilly, St James’s, W1J 9EB London
£££ · European

The Wolseley Group's eponymous flagship remains one of the capital's most popular brunch destinations. With its lively atmosphere and architectural grandeur, this iconic restaurant makes for the perfect spot for the occasion, perhaps followed by an afternoon wandering around The Royal Academy of Arts. The breakfast menu offers immense choice (homemade viennoiserie, kedgeree, porridge, a full English), while after 11.30am all manner of eggs are joined by more substantial dishes. And who knows, you might even spot a celebrity…
