I have been coming to the drift for years and it never disappoints! Duck & waffle and Sushisamba get all the attention being on the top floor of the building, but people forget about this hidden gem on the ground floor! Food is always delicious, service is always great and the music & vibes are excellent. I took my best friend for bottomless brunch and we loved it. I really liked that they had bottomless aperol spritz as an option. The service was great and they even gave us a complimentary dessert with “Congratulations” written on it because we were celebrating my friend’s engagement. We stayed after brunch for extra drinks in the bar area and Gustavo made sure we were looked after, recommending loads of lovely cocktails to us! I will definitely be back, and I’d highly recommend The Drift for your next lunch, brunch, dinner or /special occasion!

My friend and I stayed across the street at the Pan Pacific and stopped in for a cocktail after we had checked out, after saying for days we would stop in. The vibes here are amazing, and the drinks and food were delicious. We got the Garden Spritz and duck baos and they did not disappoint. Shoutout to Yovani for the great service as well!

Delicious cocktails and nice vibes. My friends booked an area upstairs here for their engagement party and it went great. I especially liked the new york sour. The cocktails weren't outrageously expensive for central london, around £13 each. We also ate a few nibbles which were good.
