NYX Hotel London Holborn Brunch

 

There's a new hotel in town, and as well as having rooms designed with curiosity and luxury in mind plus a chilled spa for ironing out the stresses of that WFH life, it's bringing an electric brunch to your weekends spent in Holborn. Named after the Greek goddess of the night, NYX's kitchen will be serving up comfort dishes that have been given the modern treatment. We love the sound of their tequila and chipotle prawn tostadas (what can we say, we can't resist tequila on any menu), and the Southern American flavours of their creole crayfish burger sound like our kinda vibe.

Peckham Cellars Brunch

When your doors were closed for several months, you wanna reopen them with a bang, right? Right. That's why the team at Peckham Cellars have added a killer weekend brunch menu to their already awesome repertoire of dishes and wines. You might find the likes of their Cheese on Cheese Croque Monsieur (yes, that's double cheese) on their ever-changing seasonal menu, right next to their rich, smokey and extra dippy Shakshuka with its pools of gooey egg on the top (heads up: you'll def wanna be like BarChick and ask for more sourdough to scoop those babies up!). To go with the dishes they have a killer menu of drinks to round it all off, from delicious coffees made with Old Spike coffee (a wicked social enterprise speciality coffee roastery based in Peckham) to a breakfast friendly selection of non-alc cocktails from Savyll Beverage Co. Palomas before 11am? Yep, that's how we roll.

All brunch dishes under £10. Bookings for both dinner and weekend brunch are now open via RESY. Peckham Cellars, 125 Queen's Road, Peckham, SE15 2ND 

Coqbull Brunch - Every Weekend

The newly opened Coqbull restaurants in Soho and Spitalfields Market have introduced a killer brunch menu to both venues every weekend, and with a name like that, you can bet they're bringing some tongue in cheek attitude to their menus. That's how we like it. If you overcooked it the night before, you'll wanna turn to the Hangover Bull - Double stack beef, American cheese, maple-glazed bacon, fried egg, jalapeños, habanero mayo, lettuce, tomato and onions with a side of fries - to bring you back to life. And then you'll probably wanna go home for a nap. Or if hair of the Dog is your remedy of choice, hit the menu of signature cocktails ASAP for a retox revival. We bet the Velvet Picante will give you the boost you're after. 

Brunch is available Soho and Spitalfields on Saturdays and Sundays. Hit the Soho joint to check out their killer new roof terrace.
