Brunching London Style

Who doesn’t love brunch!! The New Yorker make it an entire fabulous event fully equipped with a buffet full of poached eggs, smoked salmon, croissants and champagne all from a deluxe rooftop bar overlooking the skyscrapers of the Big Apple. Us Londoners tend to make it a more sophisticated affair making it our favourite meal of the weekend. The Innu London team have done all kinds of brunch over the capital from day parties to cosy spots in Notting Hill to luxurious locations fit for a Queen. We have summed up our top 5 brunch spots for you to enjoy….

1. The Woseley

Starting you off on a grand prestigious scale, The Woseley is considered by many to host London’s ultimate breakfast menu. Eggs Benedict are a personal favourite of mine when it comes to brunching and The Woseley make them with perfection. The restaurant is decorated with a Parisian style monochrome look making it ever the opulent location. This needs to be added to your bucket list immediately… but book in advance but as I'm sure you can imagine, it gets busy.

2. Electric Diner

Moving on to one of the our favourite spots in London, Notting Hill, lies the infamous Electric Diner. With an all american menu including pancakes, eggs, milkshakes you name it you won’t be disappointed. If you arrive after 12pm do not worry and HAVE THE BURGER! Hands down the most delicious and flavoursome burger I have ever had in my life. But no matter what you have you will be wanting to walk some of those calories off. It is perfectly situated on the world renowned Portobello Road where you can wander up and down the atmospheric market and perhaps buy yourself a little unique treat.

3. Duck & Waffle

If you fancy brunch with a view Duck & Waffle allows you to enjoy a perfectly fluffy cappuccino with a view of the iconic Gherkin and the City of London…not quite New York but still breathtaking. Their menu in a word is EXOTIC. A delectable array of worldy foods from pigs ears, oysters and grilled hearts certainly makes this brunch experience and little different.

4. Cookbook Cafe

A healthy option for a weekend brunch with the girls. Don’t get me wrong, you can still gorge waffles, pancakes, the lot. With juicing becoming a new fad (ish) take advantage of their juice menu, boost, cleanse, energise and strengthen your body to give a natural start to your day. As the weather is picking up again, enjoy a relaxing stroll around Hyde Park which is conveniently located on its doorstep.

5. Bacanal
 Introducing the only London day party, Bacanal always pulls it out the bag. The New York style brunch has attracted a crowd of London’s elite for a one of a kind day party. Guests arrive at 1pm to enjoy a deluxe spread of Mediterranean cuisine and of course a cheeky drink or 2 for the table before the scene turns into a champagne spraying, table dancing club vibe at 3pm in the afternoon at some of the most exclusive hottest places in the City. We’re talking the likes of Nozomi, Buddah Bar and celebrity hideout, The Box. If there’s one thing you need to do this year, GET YOURSELF TO A BACANAL BRUNCH!!

As we like to think Brunch is a little luxury in itself we always make sure we are dressed the part, especially for the more upmarket places. We never turn up with anything less than an exotic skin Tote bag. Discover our collection here as it is must have this upcoming Winter season. 


For a day party you may want to opt for a St Tropez style dress to fit in with ‘the cool crowd’. 


Now when you organise your Brunch don’t forget to remind your friends about us opening the show at the London Fashion Week House of iKons event on the 13th September!! Tickets to see us do the grand opening of the show are selling fast so hurry so you are not disappointed. 

Until next time
