About this restaurant

Neighborhood gem
Great for scenic views
Good for groups

The Birds Nest rooftop diner is at the top of legendary International House.

We’re just steps away from Brixton Underground and the iconic market, surrounded by indie shops, culture, music, and creative energy. Right next to Electric Avenue, and just across from the Bowie mural.

This is more than a place to eat. It’s where you come to find your calm, catch up with your people, and take in the views.

Our menu is always switching things up. Right now, we’re serving our version of a classic Neapolitan pizza.

We keep it South London by sourcing fresh ingredients from local suppliers we rate.

We’re open from 5 p.m on weekdays and from midday on weekends.

Booking is super simple.

We really enjoyed the pizzas, the view and the service at the Birds Nest. A bit difficult to find, you'll need to follow the directions on their website. The place deserves to be a lot busier than it was on the Sunday evening we were there.

Sat outside on the roof terrace with an amazing view of the sunset, and central London. The service was friendly and efficient, great balance and everything we ate was delicious - we all had separate pizzas so got a good try of all. Drinks were spot on and overall we had a lovely evening, very chilled all round. Highly recommend it, especially if you can get a sunset booking.

Fabulous artisan pizzas, great views and modern decor. Combined it with the rooftop sauna next door for an incredible night out.

We had a great time. We were a group of work colleagues, who were interested to try this new place in Brixton. The outside seating has the best view, as done inside. It can be a bit windy on the terrace, but inside is warm. The seats are comfy, the food is delish and the cocktails are very fun. Service was friendly and warm and we were made to feel very welcome and that nothing was too much trouble. I will return to this lovely place!

You have to visit to understand the incredible views of London from this place. Better than anywhere else I’ve been. The pizzas are delicious, the staff charming. It’s new and still finding its feet a bit. I really hope they succeed.

Amazing new spot in Brixton - will be very popular once word gets out. Still working out the kinks service wise, but so much potential and excited to see what they do with the place
