You see, picking a favourite brunch experience London would have been like choosing a favourite from our very own children – they are all beautiful in their own right – so we had to go for the next best thing and round up our favourites, plural. Plus, there are many weekends in a year, so you’re going to need options.
If you’re not familiar with the concept, let us enlighten you.

FAQS
What is a bottomless brunch?
Bottomless brunch is a common deal offered by restaurants in London where guests are served unlimited drinks alongside traditional brunch dishes, like pancakes or avocado on toast, which are also sometimes offered on an unlimited basis alongside the drinks.
What time should I go to brunch?
What time you should go to brunch is an age old question. Traditionally brunch was served around 10-11am in the morning, after breakfast and before lunchtime. More recently, the definition of brunch has been stretched and you can pretty much go any time from around 10am to whenever you fancy, well into the afternoon.
What is a bottomless mimosa?
Bottomless Mimosa is a wonderful thing, guys. Mimosa, or bucks fizz as you might know it, is a Champagne and orange juice cocktail that is traditionally served at breakfast or brunch time. Bottomless simply means it’s unlimited, so as long as you keep drinking your glass will keep refilling (thanks to the team of wait staff looking after you).
What is considered brunch?
This is a bit of a ‘how long is a piece of string’ question. Typically, brunch options are in line with breakfast foods – things like eggs, bacon sandwiches, pancakes, waffles – but more recently restaurants have begun to introduce less conventional brunch options – with everything from tacos to paella on offer.
How much is bottomless brunch in London?
The price really depends on the venue you pick. You can get cheap bottomless brunches – where £25 will get you endless fizz – or go all out at one of London’s fanciest venues.
How long does the brunch last?
Most options give you a time slot to adhere to. Most, we’d say, are around the 90-minute mark – with some giving you less time. An hour is the least we’ve seen, but up to three hours wouldn’t be unusual either. When picking your favourite spot make sure to weigh up how long you get vs the cost and pick the best option for you.
What does a bottomless brunch include?
As the name suggests, it usually includes an unlimited number of drinks for a set time period. The most popular options are those which serve prosecco or Champagne, but others also offer beer, wine, spirits, cocktails, and soft drinks. We also love the bottomless food options (call us greedy).
How does a it work?
Each restaurant offers their own interpretation, but most follow a similar format. Typically there will be a set menu to choose one, two or three courses from, as well as a bottomless drink offering. You can usually order as many drinks as you like within a certain time frame.
While adding limitless drinks to your brunch is certainly a whole lot of fun, sometimes all one really needs is a really good oat cappuccino to wash down that avocado on toast. We get it! Cast your eye over London’s best weekend brunches if you prefer your brunch without the booze.
However, if you’re visiting friends outside of London and need a fun activity that unites a crowd (everyone loves to eat and drink, right?), then we have bottomless brunch guides for cities all over the UK. Take a look and book your favourite today:
