Seabird

Seabird, a sea-to-table restaurant in Southwark's Hoxton Hotel, has a delightful terrace and indoor tables with a view, as well as plenty of sunny London vibes. Despite its rooftop location, Seabird takes you on a coastal journey through southern Europe; gorgeous Mediterranean flavors meet Med-inspired interiors here.

From the moment you enter the 14th-floor foyer, the light-filled space is a sensory delight. The room is accented with rattan lampshades, tiled tables, and indoor plants, and a live DJ spins vinyl records with a view of the city behind him. An impressive 'raw bar' sits in the center of the venue; your welcome drink, a Botanist Gin martini, will be carefully brought over to you from this mountain to kickstart the brunch.

The adventure feeling will continue, as you fill your stomach with the incredible food on offer. Seabird’s sea-to-table ethos is clear throughout the menu, with plenty of fresh, flavoursome fish-based dishes. You can choose from the dedicated brunch menu, or venture to other sections, which feature raw, chilled and larger sharing plate options – there’s even a charcuterie section if you fancy something a little different to the restaurant’s speciality.

Choose from a variety of decadent desserts to round out your meal. The amount of cheese on the cheesecake - the creamy top is even dusted with shavings of cheese - will astound cheese lovers, while the torreja, soaked overnight in milk and served with ice cream and a creme brûlée-style top, will transport you to dessert heaven. From your enviable vantage point, you'll be able to spot Big Ben, The London Eye, The Shard, and many other city landmarks. The space is outfitted with all of the necessities for the unpredictable British weather, such as heaters and blankets, so you can enjoy the views rain or shine.
