If you’ve never experienced a bottomless brunch before, you might be wondering what all the fuss is about. Is it really bottomless? What’s included? And where can you find a great one in London?
Whether you're planning a birthday bash, a long-overdue catch-up, or simply fancy adding some excitement to your Saturday, bottomless brunch is a must-try. Here's everything you need to know before you book your first one, including why The Oystercatcher in Greenwich should be top of your list.

What is a Bottomless Brunch?
Bottomless brunch is a dining experience where you enjoy a set menu of brunch dishes alongside free-flowing drinks for a fixed period, typically around 90 minutes to two hours. The term “bottomless” refers to the unlimited drinks on offer during that time, which often include prosecco, cocktails, beer, or even mocktails.
It’s all about relaxed dining, lively conversation, and, of course, raising a glass or two with friends. Think of it as brunch with a celebratory twist.

What does a Bottomless Brunch include?
While every venue has its own spin, a typical bottomless brunch will offer:
A choice of brunch dishes: Often seasonal and packed with fresh flavours, ranging from breakfasts and smashed avo on toast to more pizza and other popular lunch plates.
Unlimited drinks: Most commonly prosecco or sparkling wine, but many places also serve cocktails, beer, or non-alcoholic options.
A time limit: Usually 90 minutes to 2 hours of bottomless drinks, so pace yourself and enjoy the experience.

Tips for First-Time Brunchers
If you’re heading to your first bottomless brunch, here are a few things to keep in mind:
Book in advance: Popular brunch spots fill up quickly, especially at weekends.
Arrive on time: The clock starts ticking when your booking begins, not when you arrive.
Know your limits: Bottomless doesn’t mean reckless. Enjoy the drinks, but keep it classy.
Come hungry: The food’s a key part of the experience – and a good base for the bubbles!
Dress for the occasion: Whether it’s a sunny riverside terrace or a cosy interior, wear something you’ll feel great in.
