The Best Bottomless Brunch in Melbourne for a Boozy Day Out
Where the champagne flows freely and the glass is always (at least) half-full, these Melbourne’s best bottomless brunch spots have it all.
If lockdown has taught us anything it's that brunch just isn't the same without free-flowing booze. They say absence makes the heart grow fonder and after attempting and failing miserably to poach eggs more times than we care to admit, no truer words have ever been spoken. It's not every day that eggs benny takes a back seat to anything, but when endless breakfast beers and mid-morning mimosas are on the cards, tasty food really is just an added bonus. As we welcome back one of the city's most cherished past times; here are our top picks for the best bottomless brunches in Melbourne.
The Vincent
Aptly named Strings and Spritz, this classy bottomless brunch comes complete with its own string duo to keep you entertained as you sip and feast to your heart's content for three hours. Bottomless bevvies are aplenty with Aperol, elderflower and hazel-lemon spritzes, wine and beer available. Dine on elevated sweet and savoury brunch items including almond hotcakes and a breakfast salad (more room for prosecco) as you sit perched below the beautiful floral-adored atrium. This is a boozy brunch fit for a queen.
