Brunch is a way of life in London, and the city's options span everything from grand dining rooms to buzzing neighbourhood cafes and creative global menus.

Iconic classics — The Wolseley & Granger & Co.
For grand, old-school glamour, The Wolseley near Piccadilly is a London institution. For something more relaxed but equally beloved, Granger & Co. is famous for its legendary ricotta hotcakes — a brunch rite of passage in the capital.
Global flavours — Akub, Decimo & The Aubrey
London's brunch scene is wonderfully international. Akub serves inventive Palestinian-inspired dishes, Decimo does a Saturday brunch with live music and Latin-leaning plates like short-rib birria, and The Aubrey offers an immersive Japanese-style experience.
Neighbourhood favourites — The Good Egg & Common Ground
For a laid-back local brunch, The Good Egg is celebrated for its lox bagel and Mediterranean plates, while Common Ground is highly rated for its vegetarian menu and lovely garden seating — perfect for a leisurely weekend.
