The Best Brunch Restaurants at Harrods

When Holly Golightly stopped at the luxe Fifth Avenue jewellery store for her Breakfast at Tiffany’s, she had to settle for enjoying a takeaway coffee and croissant on the street. The Tiffany Blue Box Cafe offers a far more inviting experience without forfeiting any of the glamour and romance. Brunch at Tiffany’s – OK, it doesn’t have quite the same ring, but as it’s served from 9am to12.15pm, it can certainly qualify – comes with a side of New York sophistication.

Enjoy Manhattan-inspired dishes such as the signature crab muffin or Tiffany steak and eggs, as well as our signature croissant boxes. Add a little extra sparkle to the occasion with a glass of Champagne or a cocktail. Audrey Hepburn would surely have approved. 

You might think brunch has always been about poached eggs and pastries, but in China, people have been brunching on dim sum since the inns and teahouses dotted along the Silk Road trade routes began serving an array of tasty little dishes to hungry travellers.

Closer to home and designed with 21st-century Knightsbridge residents and shoppers in mind, there is Chai Wu. The menu offers an exquisite selection of delectable dumplings, such as lobster topped with beluga caviar, crystal sea bass with gold leaf, and scallop and prawn shao mai with XO sauce. Can’t choose? The steamed dim sum platter is the perfect place to start. An appetising list of pan-Asian small dishes – from tempura soft-shell crab to wagyu puffs – adds further texture and flavour to your Eastern brunch. 

My oh Miuccia! Every detail of this chic eatery and summer terrace is informed by the distinctive style of Milan’s fashion queen, making it the destination of choice for those who like their brunch spots camera-ready and front-row-fabulous.

A tempting all-day selection of pastries and toasts, served on Japanese porcelain inspired by ancient Celadon pottery, should satisfy your savoury cravings, but it’s the patisserie that is the real showstopper here, with exquisite bites including pistachio tiramisù, fresh fruit tartlet and gianduja cake presented with all the finesse of couture. Classic aperitivos, such as a Campari spritz or Negroni Sbagliato, add a further dash of Italian flair. Cin-cin!
