If you’re looking for a classy brunch spot and al fresco dining, head to Yum Sa, located directly opposite East Putney station.
Yum Sa is known for its tasty Thai food and is the perfect brunch spot in Putney.
Their menu boasts the ability to engage all senses, from traditional recipes, spices and immaculate presentation. It’s quite the experience!
You can upgrade to drink unlimited Veuve Clicquot for £80 per person, or £40 if you’re happy with regular beer and wine.
However, if you’re more into just filling your stomach with unlimited Thai food, the brunch itself is only £30.
Whilst their starters and mains range from everything between pad thai, satai gai and sticky tamarind rubbed chicken, their dessert is one of the best things on the brunch menu.
Stick around for their tender coconut ice cream with caramelised banana fritter and you won’t be disappointed!

Bill’s is one of my favourite places for brunch in Putney as it has such a home-y and welcoming vibe.

Lost Society is one of the ‘big dogs’ when it comes to brunching in Putney, as it’s home to the Putney Brunch Club.
Whether you want a bottomless experience with your pals sipping (or guzzling) prosecco, or a more chilled vibe with your avo on toast listening to live music, Lost Society will quickly become one of your favourite weekend spots.
The atmosphere in Lost Society is one of the best things about the venue, with live music, DJs and events for special occasions.

⏱️ Brunch timings: Select weekends (see website) 1-3.30pm
📅 Brunch booking link: Tequila Mockingbird Brunch, Putney
🍳 Brunch menu: 90 minutes bottomless frozen Margaritas, Prosecco and beers and pizzas.
Tequila Mockingbird’s La Fiesta Bottomless brunch is more of a party event than a dining experience (which is perfect if you’re ready to dance the night away).
Serving unlimited booze and pizzas, you’ll be greeted by sombrero wearers hosting party games, classic party pinata and even a limbo competition.
If you’re lucky, you may even spot their traditional flamenco dancer 😅.
It’s definitely one for the partiers of Putney and will leave you feeling pretty smashed. If you need a good pub to head to after the brunch, check out my Putney pub guide here.

🍳 Brunch menu: British inspired with everything from pastries, cakes, pancakes, sandwiches and halloumi
On the complete other end of the spectrum, you have family-friendly Smuggler’s Cafe, a light brunch cafe perfect for sipping coffee and watching the world go by.
Locals love Smugglers for its homely vibes, delicious food and freshly made smoothies.
Stop by after a long bike ride or a walk through Bishop’s Park.
Brunch is reasonably priced, with most meals being under £10, including their well-known incredible blueberry pancakes with clotted cream (I highly recommend!)
🌎 If you’re looking for a new backpack or suitcase, I highly recommend the Osprey 65L wheeled backpack. It’s a mix between your classic traveller backpack and an easy pull-along suitcase, so you get the best of both worlds!

Tried & True is a small neighbourhood cafe serving pancakes, spicy chorizo, banana bread, sandwiches and salad boxes throughout the week.
It’s known for its friendly and personal service and is another great homely, cosy cafe for brunch in Putney.
Whether you choose to sit outside or in, you can bring your dogs, kids, friends and family and enjoy the chill vibes of the Tried & True cafe.
🔌 Whilst you won’t want to be glued to your phone whilst visiting Putney, I highly recommend carrying a power bank. Travelling around London can be chaotic and not having a map to hand wouldn’t be ideal! I use this power bank, and it’s not let me down yet! It easily lasts for a whole week trip!

💸 Price: Dependent on menu choice

🍳 Brunch menu: Acai bowls, deli counter, coffee, sandwiches, eggs, burgers, pancakes
Proudly labelling themselves as the best one-stop for award-winning coffee, Social Brew is another strong contender for the best brunch in Putney.
With mouth-watering acai bowls, homemade meals and freshly made smoothies, Social Brew is the perfect spot for a cosy breakfast or brunch.
If you’re heading there for the first time, I recommend the coffee infused French toast with caramelized bananas. It is insaaaaane.
10. The Dynamo
📍Location: 200-204 Putney Bridge Road, London, SW15 2NA
💸 Price: Dependent on menu choice
⏱️ Brunch timings: Everyday from 8am

The Dynamo is perfect for a quick bite or a weekend daytime catch up with friends.
Dynamo has a large outdoor seating area, offers on pizzas on weeknights and an extensive brunch menu during the day.
If you’re visiting for the first time, I recommend the Full Dynamo which is corn & herb fritters, streaky bacon, smashed avocado, halloumi and sriracha aioli, or their standard eggs on toast which still tastes better than any egg on toast you can make at home.
The Dynamo also doubles up as the perfect evening hangout with a pint or glass of wine.
11. East Putney Tavern
📍Location: 94-98 Upper Richmond Road, SW152SP
💸 Price: £35 two courses, £39 three-course

🍳 Brunch menu: EPT Brunch Menu. Drinks include unlimited prosecco or bellinis.
Undoubtedly, one of the best bottomless brunches in Putney is in the East Putney Tavern (known as the EPT to locals).
Spread across all three floors, the boozy brunch allows you to endlessly drink prosecco for 2 hours, along with either a 2 or 3-course meal.
Their brunch is popular and is only available between 12-4 on Saturdays, so make sure you book in advance.
Oooh, and top tip, make sure you try the buttermilk waffles with caramelized syrup and the nduja croquettes to start.

11 of the best brunches in Putney, including some of the boozy bottomless events which always turn into more than just a brunch.
