Skylon’s jaw-dropping riverside restaurant is just one reason to dine here; their Weekend Brunches and Sunday Lunches are fast becoming the go-to spot for Brunch with a View.

As the perfect Southbank spot, Skylon invites you to enjoy a mouth-watering weekend Brunch or Sunday Lunch with swoon-worthy views of the London Eye.

Brunch is available every Saturday from 11:30am – 3pm and Sunday from 11:30am - 4pm, with the option of 2 or 3 courses and the added upgrade of Bottomless Prosecco or Bordeaux. On Saturdays experience Skylon Saxy Brunch with a live saxophonist and live DJ playing all day inside the restaurant. 

Begin with egg dishes such as Eggs Benedict or Smashed Avocado on Toast. These are followed by delicious mains such as a hearty Full English Fry Up, Chalk Stream Trout, or a soulful Roasted Vegetable Curry.

If you are visiting on a Sunday, the restaurant also serves a delicious warming Sunday Roast with the option of roast Scottish beef, or outdoor reared roast pork chop, both served with all the trimmings.

Skylon can be found on the Southbank, just 5 minutes from Waterloo Station.

    A last minute meal out and decided on Skylon as hadn't been for quite a number of years. The dining room is large and very comfortable with a nice feature bar. Tables along the river side are in high demand and for good reason. They provide a wonderful view out to the river and north side. The staff were all excellent and a pleasure to deal with. The cocktails were great and the food was pretty good too. It's a little on the pricier side but that's worth it if you have a good table with a view and can enjoy it while you relax and chat!

    Skylon is back again … !! I visited Skylon for lunch recently and what a makeover … stunning ambience, great vibe and not to miss a brand new menu to choose from. A big shout out for the Triple cheese soufflé … it was sublime. Every dish that came to the table had a surprise element. It not only looked pretty but it was packed with flavours that leaves you wanting for more. The cocktails were great too . A special mention about the waiter who was so attentive that it was a pleasure to be served by her . It is worth the visit to enjoy a scrumptious meal and watch the stunning sunset by the river on South Banks !

    My girls took me here for a birthday lunch. Located right in Festival Hall, it was perfect for taking in the stunning Southbank views whilst enjoying a meal. I ordered the set lunch, royal benedict as a starter and steak for my main. The starter was nice but the waffle was slightly hard. When the steak came, it was cooked so wrong and the peppercorn sauce was thin and watery, even though we raised this the second lot was just as watery, disappointing, had to let the staff know. So they changed it to the cheeseburger, can't really go wrong really, I loved their fries, perfect texture and flavour. Staff were polite and friendly. We sat for hours chatting, at no point did we feel unwelcome or asked to leave. It was amazing. They even surprised me with a cheeky birthday dessert. Toilets are located out of the restaurant, less than a couple of minutes away. Would recommend to others, I'd like to visit again one day. Thank you
