These days it seems day drinking is the new night out and the bottomless brunch has swooped in to make all of our daylight tipple-sipping dreams become reality. Gather your nearest and dearest and lock yourselves in for a few hours of brunching with enough fizz flowing to leave you all merrily buzzed for an afternoon of fun… or an early night – depending on how literally you take the ‘bottomless’.
It’s no secret that bottomless brunch in Shoreditch is as vibrant as its culture, so the choice is fairly impressive. But while some might say they’re bottomless, they come with rules attached or often limited menus which isn’t what this weekend pastime is about in our books. We’ve picked out some of our favourites for their irresistible menus and lively atmospheres, pure bottomless style.
This is more than your standard Shoreditch bottomless brunch. Ballie Ballerson is not just a bar, it’s a ball-pit bar, so if your inner child is screaming to get out then this is the brunch for you. Saturdays see all of your favourite RnB tunes grace the speakers while Sundays are a celebration of nineties and noughties cheese. Book yourself a seated ticket for a comfy table in the lounge area or, if you’re a brunch boogier, then a standing ticket is the one for you. Drink pornstar martinis and prosecco to your heart’s content and lose your inhibitions somewhere in the depths of the ball pit.
What’s included?
- 90 minutes
- Unlimited cocktails, fizz and pizza
- Access to two ball pits (for when one just isn’t enough)
- Tickets from £22.40pp
