The Oriental - Flesh and Buns

One of the best brunch options in the Capital - and one of the most dangerous if bottomless Prosecco is what you're after. For only £46 Seven Dials' Flesh and Buns give you a cocktail on arrival, three small plates, two buns, a dessert and bottomless Prosecco.

Both the Korean fried wings and the crispy fried squid, as well as Flesh & Buns' aubergine miso bun, are the menu's strongest points. Top that with marshmallow s'mores to melt on the flame and make into a cookie sandwich and you will never want to leave.

The 3 South Place Hotel Bellini brunch offers some of the best home-made Bircher muesli you'll ever try as well as a killer Cumberland sausage and mash with caramelised onion and sage gravy. Just like any dish on the brunch menu, the sausages are a twist on a classic that doesn't disappoint.

Classy, friendly and laid back, the South Place Hotel is your perfect boutique brunch, helping you relax without weighing too much on your pockets.

Brunch at Tom's Kitchen's Canary Wharf restaurant takes you away from the hustle-and-bustle of Central London with a different take on brunch classics. Start with Tom's Kitchen signature dishes like the chicken liver and foie gras parfait with chutney and brioche or the spicy crab cake with cucumber and chilli salsa.

Make sure you make enough room for the Eggs Benedict: replacing the ham hock with crispy bacon, Tom's Kitchen's eggs are cooked to perfection.
