At the weekend at the beginning of June, a friend and I went to bottomless brunch at The Aviary in London. It is located at Montcalm Hotel at Finsbury Square. There are options for two course and three course bottomless brunch, and we had the two course option with either champagne or Prosecco and a selection of other drinks, such as beer, mimosa, Bloody Mary, and Coffee Martini.
When we arrived, there was a lady playing live music on a saxophone.
I started to get the Proseccos in with my friend enjoying the Mimosa. Unfortunately, I kept having to ask them for a refill, and the service was very very slow at first. (I did not get tipsy, but I wanted to make sure that I was okay so that I could go to a friend's daughter's birthday party the same evening.)
I had the vegetarian option, a broad bean garlic risotto. My friend had a Wagyu burger. I also ordered a side of the rosemary chips.
For the second course, we had desserts. My friend had the Eton Mess 'cruffin', which is a combination of muffin and crumpet or croissant.
I had blackberry French toast, which was served with toasted almond and carmelised banana. The food was very delicious without any complaints.
I decided to have a look in the toilets, which I suspected may have a decent view and did.
I also had a look outside the rooftop garden before leaving. Unfortunately, the weather took a turn and had rain storms and bad weather.
Overall, it was a good bottomless brunch, but the service was too slow and did not top up the drinks. I had to ask a few times on the first occassion before they finally came to fill it up. The music was also too loud to have a good conversation.
