“This turned out to be much better than we had expected. Deivid and his partner in success were awesome. The food was great, the view awesome and the service was amazing! Will definitely be coming back.”
“I wonderful meal and time at Skylon. The food was great and the atmosphere as well but what I really enjoyed was the service both Deivid and Mo went out of their way to make our experience outstanding. They couldn't do enough for us and they were very attentive and considerate. Thank you guys. Will definitely be coming back again!”
“What an amazing brunch we had! Service was amazing and we chose Saturday so we benefited from having the band and live music. The staff were so attentive, we went for 2 course menu and bottomless bubbles. The music was such a great thing for Saturday lunch. We stayed for 3 hours! Food was awesome and I would say the value was there and on point. Obviously not cheap but so worth it and not expensive imo. On point, as I said! We will be back and bringing friends!”
“Very upmarket prices, not sire that the food matches the prices. The resteraunt itself had lots of potential although it did feel a little tired, the blinds and windows were dusty and almost caked in grime. They were very accommodating though. The chef prepared my partners fish and chips with sparkling water instead of the beer based batter - this was really nice. I ordered a ribeye which was halal and this was cooked really well. We ordered some mocktails and these were also pretty decent. And for dessert we ordered their cheesecake which was deconstructed. This was a little disappointing as it lacked substance. All in all, everything was just ok, nothing wowed, everything was just so. I felt like the place was missing some pizazz and sparkle. Like an expensive way of filling a hole without being a gastronomic experience.”
“I recently visited SkyLon for a Saturday afternoon brunch and overall had a good experience. The staff were all very friendly and welcoming, which made the visit feel relaxed from the start. A real highlight was the roaming band singing throughout the restaurant — they created a fun, lively atmosphere — and the view over the river was beautiful and definitely one of the main draws. That said, there are a few areas that could be improved. The restaurant and building fabric feel quite dated and would benefit from a refurbishment, especially given that prices are comparable with newer, more modern venues. While the food was good and perfectly pleasant, it lacked the wow factor you might expect at this price point. The layout also feels more like a function room than a stylish brunch spot, which slightly detracts from the overall experience. Overall, it was a good one-off brunch with great service and entertainment, but probably not somewhere I would rush back to.”
