Move over bottomless brunch
Free-flowing prosecco on the side of your avo toast has long been an accepted way to start your weekends but now it appears that bottomless brunch isn’t the only unlimited game in town. Yes all-you-can-eat food is coming back into fashion, and we’re not talking about Toby Carvery or the Pizza Hut buffet. These London spots are doing actually decent food in very generous portions and at great price points too – the ideal combo for those with big appetites and tight budgets.
Whether you want all-you-can-eat lasagna, unlimited fried chicken or endless plates of dim sum, these are the best all-you-can-eat places in London. Stretchy trousers at the ready.
Yauatcha
Every weekend between 12pm – 6pm (Saturdays in the City, Sundays in Soho), Yauatcha runs its Infinite Yum Cha menu for £45 per person, which includes an unlimited selection of dim sum. You can order as many rounds of Pork and Prawn Shui Mai, Har Gau, and Seafood Black Truffle; Venison Puff and Edamame Puff; and Char Siu Bao and Pan-Fried Classic Vegetarian Bao as you like, and you also get main course served with rice, and a pud.
The Ned
This is probably the bougiest buffet in town, with a price tag to match (£110 per person or £175 with free-flowing champagne). The Sunday Feast at The Ned includes as much food as you can manage in two hours, and with lobsters, oysters, salads, cheeses, charcuterie, roast meats and all the trimmings, and desserts on offer, you have a hell of a lot to choose from.
CheeMc
The Soho branch of this Korean spot does bottomless Korean fried chicken and a drink for £19.90 a head, Monday – Thursday. There are ten different flavours – including honey butter, sweet soy, mad garlic and Korean buffalo – available, you get six wings per plate and you can keep going round as much as you like within 90 minutes.
Senza Fondo
Shoreditch has got a new all-you-can-eat lasagna restaurant. Senza Fondo, which translates to ‘without end’, serves unlimited lasagna (either beef shin or artichoke) for £20 a head. You can also dig into other Italian-American dishes like mozzarella sticks, pepperoni & hot honey pizzette, fettuccine alfredo, aubergine parmigiana and tiramisu but the endless lasagna is where it’s at.
Babur
If you fancy switching up your usual Sunday lunch, head to Babur for its big Indian buffet, costing just £23.95 per person. Running every Sunday from 12pm – 4pm, it includes dishes like veggie fritters, saith fish in spiced coconut sauce, deep fried tilapia, mughlai chicken, black lentils, roast pumpkin with black onion dressing, saffron rice and boondi raita.
Osteria Mbare
Want bottomless food AND drink? Clapham spot Osteria Mbare is happy to oblige. Every Tuesday – Sunday from 12pm – 5pm, the Italian restaurant does bottomless carbs and bubbles – that means free-flowing prosecco (which you can turn into mimosas or bellinis) and plate after plate of fresh pasta dishes arriving every 10 – 15 minutes.
MEATliquor
Swerve the roasts on Sundays and head to MEATliquor instead for unlimited burgers instead. Yes MEATliuqor has gone BUNLIMITED. Eat as many Dead Hippies, Cheeseburgers or Tempeh Tantrums as you like in 90 minutes, plus one side of fries or slaw, for £25 per person.
Noci
Swap your bottomless brunch for bottomless lunch at the Shoreditch branch of Noci, which is running the new weekend series Feasting With Friends. You get a round of focaccia and unlimited plates of pasta, like brown butter cacio e pepe ziti and chianti & beef shin ragu pappardelle, for 90 minutes for £25 a head, and you can add on bottomless Aperols, spritzes and prosecco for another £25.
