Skylon

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

Returned to Skylon to enjoy their bottomless brunch for our anniversary whilst in the city for a show. The food, service, views and music were as good as we remembered and make for an excellent experience. From the moment you arrive until you leave you are made to feel special and are well looked after by your hosts. The menu was very different to our previous visit but just as delicious with what seems like options for all diets. We opted for Eggs Royale, Lemon and thyme grilled chicken and sirloin steak, along with green mixed vegetables. There were some very tasty desserts but before we chose one we were brought a special anniversary chocolate plate as I had mentioned it when booking. Alongside the delicious food the prosecco (and water) kept flowing throughout and I don't think our glasses fell below half full for the duration of our dining experience. A live saxophonist also made the meal a great experience wandering around the tables playing along to background music. Finally another mention to our excellent hosts and serves, who in addition to providing fantastic service and our glasses full were great throughout. Can't wait to return!

Perfect brunch spot! Lovely view of the Thames, the brunch menu is great. There’s a two course and three course option. The selections are pretty satisfying and the bottomless Prosecco is a great add on. Good atmosphere, views and food.
