Beringers

A baby grand piano sits at the heart of this City Island spot on the Leamouth Peninsula, with resident musicians taking centre stage twice a week. The concept takes its cue from Guy Beringer's 1895 essay The Plea — the piece that first imagined brunch as a sociable, indulgent way to gather — so it's built for lingering, with all-day brunch, sharing 'piano plates', house cocktails and its own Beringers IPA. Doors open at 7am, meaning you can arrive for a morning coffee and still be there with a drink in hand as day turns to evening.
