There is no denying that bottomless boozy brunches are still gaining popularity – the idea of combining brunch (one of the best meals of the day) and booze is a wonder child. The good news with them increasing in popularity isn’t just the fact you have legitimately have prosecco with your eggs benedict or a bloody Mary with your pancakes, but that places are doing them bigger and better!
Just after Christmas I blogged
about Shoreditch’s Forge and Co. Great prices and a decent helping on the
bottomless prosecco for two hours!
Well today I am going
to blog about Avenue, in London’s St James area.
As you would expect
from a restaurant near the Ritz in London’s Maryfair area, this place was
sophisticated brunching, the menu is slightly more expensive than some, but
£23.50 for 2 courses (£26 for 3 courses) and £15 for a glass of prosecco that is
dutifully topped up throughout your 2 hour sitting, it’s a very decent offer.
For my first course
I opted for the delicious chorizo, egg and potato rosti. A falvour combination
that will never disappoint.
My second course
was an American classic of buttermilk waffles and crispy bacon. If I am going
to be picky, the waffles were a little too overcooked for me, needing brute force
to stick the knife in.
The girls opted for
equally tasty choice of buttermilk chicken burger, mac and cheese (and seeing
as I polished this off for Charlie, I know its good), pecan pie and cheesecake (again,
I polished this off for Kris so I know its good).

With friendly
staff, delicious food, generous refills and a cheerful ambience, this is a
place to recommend for brunch (and prosecco) lovers!
