Enjoy an excellent early dinner here last week for my daughters graduation. I had a set 3 course meal, which was excellent value and very tasty, and everyone else's food looked lovely. Free bottle of Nyetimber sparkling wine for graduates was a lovely touch! Service was excellent

Returned to Skylon to enjoy their bottomless brunch for our anniversary whilst in the city for a show. The food, service, views and music were as good as we remembered and make for an excellent experience. From the moment you arrive until you leave you are made to feel special and are well looked after by your hosts. The menu was very different to our previous visit but just as delicious with what seems like options for all diets. We opted for Eggs Royale, Lemon and thyme grilled chicken and sirloin steak, along with green mixed vegetables. There were some very tasty desserts but before we chose one we were brought a special anniversary chocolate plate as I had mentioned it when booking. Alongside the delicious food the prosecco (and water) kept flowing throughout and I don't think our glasses fell below half full for the duration of our dining experience. A live saxophonist also made the meal a great experience wandering around the tables playing along to background music. Finally another mention to our excellent hosts and serves, who in addition to providing fantastic service and our glasses full were great throughout. Can't wait to return!

Perfect brunch spot! Lovely view of the Thames, the brunch menu is great. There’s a two course and three course option. The selections are pretty satisfying and the bottomless Prosecco is a great add on. Good atmosphere, views and food.

The service was great the staff was funny and entertaining. This place is a perfect date night spot for sure and the views were amazing. The steak was a bit undercooked when asked for medium rare, but the french fries remind of american diner fries which was good
