Best Breakfast and Brunch Places in Belsize Park

"For banging food and cocktails with 24/7 views of the London skyline, Duck & Waffle is hard to beat. The 40th-floor restaurant in the Heron Tower serves up plates to rival the view: there’s the eponymous ‘Duck & Waffle’ — confit duck leg with fried egg and mustard maple syrup — for breakfast, seasonal small plates throughout the day, and a late night menu featuring ox cheek doughnuts, salt beef grilled cheese sandwiches, and slow-cooked lamb sloppy Joes."

"Prior to London being plunged into lockdown, Duck & Waffle was serving its popular brunch menu seven days a week. The menu’s back, but is currently only available between 7am and 5pm on Saturday and Sundays. Which gives you plenty of time to sample some of the destination restaurant’s signature dishes."

"Food isn't the only thing that's elevated at this slick City space. Nestled on the 40th floor of the Heron Tower, Duck and Waffle is known for its 24 hour menu, unrivalled views and signature dishes; from the eponymous plate to the ox cheek doughnut."

"Pop into The Wolseley for its famous brunch – or enjoy lunch, dinner and a great value afternoon tea – on your anniversary at this lively eatery on Piccadilly. Once a car showroom, the light-filled restaurant is influenced by the historic European "grand cafes", with a relaxed feel that's perfect for a low-key celebration. Book The Wolseley now."

"Afternoon tea is totally a thing in the UK, and London has the most options of any city. Traditional afternoon tea is really less about the tea (although it is served) and more about the food!. Clotted cream and scones, crustless sandwiches,  and a myriad of bite-sized sweet pastries and cakes are served in most establishments."

"Locations: Chelsea, Kings Cross, Clerkenwell and Notting Hill. Bill Granger’s relaxed, cool and seemingly effortless café and restaurant empire is known and loved for its brunch dishes, particularly the scrambled eggs and ricotta hotcakes with banana and honeycomb butter. Here, these dishes are joined by the likes of stone bass tiradito with shaved fennel and soused onion, or sticky chilly belly pork with spring onion salad; influences on the menu range from Honolulu to Seoul."

"Restaurants Australian Notting Hill. This was the first UK outlet from Australian Bill Granger. Notting Hill has taken to this simply decorated, no-bookings eaterie with a passion – queues form at weekends for brunch, and even early in the week the tightly packed tables and stools along the bar are fully occupied."

"Granger and Co is a Chelsea restaurant cooking up global food in a gorgeous setting. Pick between their first floor outdoor terrace or hidden alfresco courtyard and chomp on ricotta hotcakes, yellow fish curry and more."

"For cosy vibes and some of the best American pancakes in central London What to eat?. Pancakes and berries with whipped cream and syrup. As you’d expect from a café called The Breakfast Club (named in honour of the classic 1980’s movie) these guys know how to deliver the goods when it comes to a good morning feed."

"So, is there any surprise why there's usually a queue outside its venues on a daily basis?. We think not but, rest assured, its food is worth the wait. The institution's pancakes come pilled high, fluffy and pretty damn perfect."

"Restaurants Crêperies Southwark. Minimalist and airy (with an outdoor terrace), this independent little pancake spot in Flat Iron Square does one thing: pancakes. But boy, does it do them well."

"For every kind of pancake you could possibly imagine What to eat?. A ‘Dutch Baby’ (read on below to find out more … ). A London pancake restaurant that does what it says on the tin."

"The familiarity of a chain can be the perfect safety net for failsafe client dinners. The Ivy’s branch in The City does a good line in modern international fare. The terrace is perfect for summer."

"The Delaunay, just off The Strand, know how to do pancakes in style. A classy establishment, with dark furnishings and old-school glamour, the pancakes here are served with a good selection of toppings and and come with a jug of maple syrup so you can pour on as much of the sweet stuff as you like."

": The perfect ‘hair of the dog’ cure for hangovers, this boozy brunch is great for hanging out in the normally desolate space known as ‘the city on the weekend’. Take friends and share strategically to taste the majority of the menu."

"Feast on pancakes topped with fried chicken, banana and maple syrup. City Point, 1 Ropemaker Street, City, London, EC2Y 9AW. Tube: Moorgate Station"

"Restaurants Global Moorgate"

"Somewhat bemusingly, it claims to be the oldest French restaurant in London despite only being founded in the 1940s. Still, the menu is brimming with classic French dishes, so we’ll forgive this apparent fib."

"We've been passionate about baking our fresh bread, cakes and pastries since 1929 and with the business now run by the third generation of the Cavan family, we are just as dedicated to providing our customers with great tasting food and excellent customer service."

"Why combine two baked goods together when you could do three?. That’s exactly what Sophia Sutton-Jones aka Sourdough Sophia has done at her Crouch End microbakery with the chocolate babka cruffin. All the flavours of a chocolate babka wrapped into a croissant-muffin hybrid….yes, yes and yes."

"13/06/2021: I'm not sure why this place has such good reviews. I only went the once but I have to say the sushi was not as I expected at all given these reviews. The texture of the rice was terrible."
