Sonny's Riverside

Sonny's sits right on the river, a short walk from Kingston town centre, with a sprawling open-air terrace that catches the last of the sun as it dips behind Kingston Bridge. It's the closest thing Kingston has to a Mediterranean rooftop — think sunset drinks with a soundtrack, not a quiet pint. ## Frozen margaritas and sundowners The draw here is the setting and the vibe. Wednesday through Friday, **Sunset Margarita Hour** (3–6pm) brings frozen margaritas — Classic, Tommy's, and Spicy — at £7 each, alongside £7 spritzes and £4 Sol. Friday and Saturday evenings shift gear with **DJ Sunset Sessions** from 7pm, playing house and electronic sets as the terrace fills up. The food is stone-baked pizza — [Time & Leisure praised](https://timeandleisure.co.uk/food/sonnys-riverside/) the "perfectly thin bases with pillowy crusts and proper charring" — priced at £12–£16. There are grazing boards and sharing plates alongside. Not a full dinner destination, but that's not what you're here for. ## Bottomless brunch Saturday and Sunday, 12–3pm, from £27.50 — ninety minutes of free-flowing prosecco paired with pizza. Book ahead; it fills up. ## Good to know - **Hours:** Closed Mon–Tue.
