Before heading to Tate Modern to see Yayoi Kusama’s Infinite Mirrors (before summer), we spent a couple of hours at Oxbo Bankside. I had booked a Sunday brunch, which turned out to be a true feast for all the senses.

Today, DOYOUSPEAKLONDON takes you to OXBO Bankside for their incredible bottomless brunch. A feast you won’t forget!

Oxbo Bankside, London

The restaurant is located on the ground floor of the Hilton London Bankside Hotel in a quiet area.

Easily reached from London Bridge or Southwark tube stations, OXBO Bankside sits just a short walk from Tate Modern. Ideal for a brunch followed by a cultural outing or a leisurely stroll along the Thames!

Oxbo Bankside’s urban ambiance

On arrival, we were welcomed by the friendly, smiling staff and instantly fell in love with the restaurant’s stylish interior.

I read that the restaurant’s interior design was inspired by William Morris, the 19th-century British textile designer, whose love of nature shines through in all his drawings and creations.

At OXBO Bankside, you’re welcomed into a cosy ambiance, complete with wooden and exposed brick walls, black-and-white tiled floors, comfy chairs, and an open kitchen where the staff are busy at work.

While we enjoyed our lunch, a guitarist played live music, adding a warm, uplifting vibe to the already lovely atmosphere.

Oxbo Bankside’s bottomless weekend brunch

OXBO Bankside takes pride in using local, seasonal produce to create flavour-packed European dishes.

Head Chef Ollie Couillaud caters to every palate, from indulgent options to light, fresh choices. Before we dug in, a staff member kindly walked us through how the brunch works.

Since we visited during summer, COVID rules were in place, so we were served directly at our table.

The brunch began with a generous assortment of starters, followed by one breakfast item (choice of eggs, waffles, or pancakes), one main (fish, meat, or vegetarian), and a fantastic selection of desserts. And of course, you can add unlimited bubbles or wine for an extra treat.

Honestly, if you can finish it all, you deserve a medal! We couldn’t, and happily left with a take-away bag!

After such a fantastic brunch, with high-quality food, an extensive weekend menu, a stylish ambiance, and attentive staff, OXBO Bankside might just be one of those best-kept secrets you’ll want to share with friends and family.

I hope you’ve enjoyed this post and found inspiration here. If you are about to try out Oxbo’s bottomless brunch soon, please share your experience and opinion on DOYOUSPEAKLONDON’s blog!
