Best Restaurants, Must Try Places in Burness Close

"Located on the 43rd floor of the Walkie Talkie building in the City of London, the Sky Garden is the capital’s highest public garden and one of the coolest places to visit in London for free. The garden’s large plant-filled atrium has floor-to-ceiling windows with amazing panoramic views out over the city below and is open throughout the day and into the evenings on weekends – making it one the best free things to do in London at night too!. There’s also an open-air covered terrace on one side."

"Sky Garden pairs epic views with tasty cocktails and an indoors garden, how can you not love that?. Sky Garden has a 360° view all around London and a number of different bars and restaurants inside it. Access to Sky Garden is free but you have to book in advance if you want to skip the queues, don’t worry if you forget about booking, you can still access Sky Garden but you will have to wait a little longer before taking your perfect Instagram shots."

"Get the lift to the top of 20 Fenchurch Street and let your toddler explore London’s highest public garden. There are 360 degree views of the London skyline, gardens to run around in and a café where you can buy cakes and pastries. Cost – Free, but you need to prebook."

"Located just below Duck & Waffle on the 38th and 39th floors of London’s Herron Tower is the equally impressive restaurant with a view – SUSHISAMBA. SUSHISAMBA uniquely blends Japanese, Brazilian and Peruvian cuisine and culture, with a menu featuring everything from tempura and sushi to churrasco and seviches. As well as the large main dining room with its floor-to-ceiling windows and unusual bamboo roof, SUSHISAMBA also features the highest outdoor dining terraces in Europe, offering unparalleled 360-degree views across the capital."

"Peruvian and Japanese cuisine have a well-known partnership, but at Sushisamba, the Brazilians are joining in the party too. You’ll find an El Topo salmon nigiri served with jalapeno and melted mozzarella, and a kobe steak with churrasco among the larger dishes. The sushi here, of course, comes with a view at the city location, where diners can enjoy the fruits of the 38th and 39th floor spot in 110 Bishopsgate."

"While SUSHISAMBA in the City is notorious enough, it's the Covent Garden site that has caught our eye. Not only the place to catch sky high views and serious amounts of sushi, this pretty London restaurant is a sight to behold from the bold prints on the walls and the hanging plants overhead to the fusion cuisine, worthy of any Instagram post."

"At Duck & Waffle the fun begins in the lifts, which feel like you’re shooting up into the sky. One of London’s highest restaurants, it’s located on the 40th floor of the Heron Tower, and being open 24/7 means you can catch the stunning panoramic views whenever you fancy. It’s the kind of place people go to be seen – but it’s smaller and less showy than its sister SUSHISAMBA, which sits a few floors below."

"What: A savoury doughnut – yes it is a thing, and yes it is delicious. The spicy ox cheek doughnut at Duck & Waffle has been a firm fixture on its menu for quite some time and frankly we’re not surprised. This decadent starter is filled with slow-cooked spicy ox cheek, the crispy outer coating is dusted with paprika sugar and it comes served with a generous dollop of apricot jam for good measure."

"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."

"This iconic luxury fashion boutique curates the best and brightest clothes, shoes and accessories from over 150 labels and is heaven for the style conscious. As well as the original location on South Molton Street, Browns boasts an East London location (Browns East) which focuses on the coolest next-gen brands and is an immersive technology-led space. 24-27 S Molton St, Mayfair, London W1K 5RD"

"It certainly didn't hurt Native that their new opening in this chic Mayfair store was in possession of a rather lovely courtyard, making it the perfect set-up for alfresco dining. Jimi Famurewa loved it called the fish fillet "the capital's most intensely enjoyable new dish" - the same conclusion Marina O'Loughlin came to, "genius, simply". More about Native at Browns"

"Opposite the Parish Church of St James and close to local shops, Prezzo Weybridge is also within walking distance of the Thames. The restaurant has disabled toilets, disabled and step-free access, baby changing, alfresco dining and WiFi."

"Like many of us, chef Jake Finn had big plans for 2020 – he was going to open his first restaurant, having trained at La Petite Maison, Coya and The Ritz. Instead, he pivoted to a home-delivery service to save Londoners from their terrible cooking during lockdown. Now he’s finally swung open the doors to his own place: Cinder in Belsize Park."

"In a nutshell: Grill restaurant for Belsize Village Where is it?. 66 Belsize Lane, London NW3 5BJ Why should you care?. This new neighbourhood restaurant by an ex-Ritz chef Jake Finn has a menu devoted to the grill and a lovely outside terrace too."

"A brand-new opening by Robin and Sarah Gill (of The Dairy in Clapham fame) - a modern neighbourhood restaurant Bermondsey Larder will be reopening on the 14 April with an al fresco dining spot. The restaurant only got a couple of weeks in before lockdown when it opened in September, so we're looking forward to seeing its full potential. Highlights on the terrace will include farmer Tom Jones' lamb with Jerusalem artichoke, pulled aubergine and mushroom flatbreads and a gorgeous split mackerel and sea-salad dish, perfect for sharing."

"153-157 Tower Bridge Rd, London SE1 3LW Why should you care?. The replacement for The Dairy, less than a month after they closed in Clapham. They may have a new name forced on them, but it's still the excellent Dairy at heart."

"This Camberwell business is all about sweet treats - namely cakes - but their ice cream menu is also worth a try including their specials - cornflake ice cream and watermelon sorbet. Delivery: Via their online shop andUberEats. Check Instagram for the latest info: @midnightmunchiesss"

"We’ve expressed our love for Jefferson’s time and time again, and with good reason, their ice cream selection is on a whole new level. Stemming from a love of natural food and free from artificial flavours, Jefferson’s is devoted to celebrating quality. The ice cream is made in-house every morning, using only the finest ingredients available."

"This Balham dessert bar serves up fresh ice cream made with organic milk in flavours like caramel popcorn, vanilla honeycomb, and cold-pressed coffee. If you don’t want just one scoop, you can also get stacked sundaes, milkshakes, waffles, crepes and more."

"For those who love adorable décor and amazing ice cream, they’ll find both at Dyce. Although the focus at Dyce is ice cream and milkshakes, they also serve up bubble tea and fresh crepes. Whatever you end up choosing, you’re sure to deem it one of the best desserts in London!"

"Less shiny Parisian bistro and more rustic rural French eatery, this bar and restaurant just off Trafalgar Square specialises in low-intervention natural wines, and food to match. Come for a glass, a bottle and some small plates or a full-blown meal and enjoy the likes of cured meats and cheeses, rich fish soups and unctuous rillettes. If you want to get carried away with wine, then you’re in the right place; if not, starting prices for a glass are about £6."

"Split over two floors, Terroirs in London’s West End is both a wine bar and restaurant. Reserve a table on the ground floor to sample fine wines and pick at small plates of charcuterie and cheese, or choose to sit in the cellar restaurant for exquisite three-course meals. Order oysters by the half dozen, sample the bouillabaisse or the red mullet, or, if you’re feeling carnivorous, share a whole black leg chicken or a one-kilogram Angus T-bone steak."

"While the majority of our listed restaurants offer excellent French wines, we thought it worthy to include Terroirs as the stand-out wine destination. This charming wine bar in Charing Cross is exceptionally knowledgeable and passionate about recognising the worth of every bottle. The word terroir actually refers to the characteristic flavour imparted to a wine from the environment it is produced in, such as soil and climate."

"Alexis Gauthier took over the Georgian building that previously housed Richard Corrigan’s Lindsay House in 2010 after years helming the Michelin-starred Roussillon in Pimlico. Five years later he became the first fine dining chef in London to fully embrace a vegan lifestyle and has been gradually moving the menu here to being fully plant-based (although he’s not anticipating that happening until maybe next year). There is a vegan tasting menu already on though, and if you’re on a diet the good news is that all dishes here have the calorie count displayed."

"Having turned vegan in 2016, French chef Alexis Gauthier will make the food at his Soho restaurant, housed in a converted Georgian townhouse, entirely plant-based upon reopening following lockdown. His vegan ‘Les Plantes’ menu includes a jar of ‘faux gras’ made from lentils, mushrooms and walnuts."

"When it comes to fine dining in London, Gauthier is the place to be. And not just any fine dining: Michelin-star fine dining, at that. What makes their vegan à la carte menu so special, we hear you ask?"

"Parked in Sheldon Square, Paddington, The Cheese Truck is the perfect place to meet friends for a spot of al fresco wine and cheese. Enjoy canalside views as you sample natural wines and their signature grilled cheese sandwiches, including the likes of Cropwell Bishop Stilton with Swaledale smoked bacon and spiced pear chutney."

"Serving the best baked food in Wembley, the bakery’s colourful counter of cakes, pastries and loaves is sure to offer something to tempt your taste buds. The high-ceilinged, exposed-brick industrial space offers a chic meeting spot for friends and will be your go-to venue if you work or live nearby. As well as baked goods, the space doubles up as a pizza and rotisserie restaurant in the evenings."

"Far more than just a bread shop, the world-famous bakery, Bread Ahead, will ruin all other bakeries for you. Their baked-in-store range of sweet treats are far too good to say no, with delicious twists on home-favourites. For a denser cake try their Ginger Bread slice or indulge on one of their cult-classic filled doughnuts."

"Bread Ahead, one of London’s most beloved independent bakeries, got their start in the foodie haven of Borough Market. Great news - they’re now selling their flaky pastries, gorgeous sourdough bread, and world-famous filled doughnuts at their Wembley Park location. Did we mention that they serve up a great cup of coffee?"
