TUPI Elephant and Castle

Uniting the delicious joy of European and South American cuisine with aplomb, you'll find TUPI popping up all over London. Born in Brazil, made in London, TUPI is your answer to soulful eats throughout the day.

Located in Castle Square, The Elephant and Castle branch is an optimistic oasis of sunlight and beachy vibes. With an open courtyard to the back, loads of sunlight stream in through their floor-to-ceiling windows, illuminating a relaxed and communal diner. Sticking to an oceanic colour scheme of vibrant blues, sand and stone, TUPI is a vacation in itself. Less is more, and at this branch, their minimal approach to decor refreshes and revives in equal measure.

Funnily enough, their food does the exact same thing! For a nutritious brunch with a difference, you've come to the right place. Tastes of South America come through in full force with the chorizo hash, pico de gallo on toast and the avocado and mushroom burrito. The perfect bridge between breakfast and lunch, their sandwiches are worth investigating whilst the huevos rancheros is a delicious vegetarian alternative and are packed with enough protein to see you through the rest of the day.

Dinner is an equally sumptuous affair with the likes of classic feijoadas, dark soy ribs and a stellar range of quality steaks on the menu. If you prefer to share, decorate the table with a selection of Brazilian sausages, deep-fried chicken, ceviche or dispose of all decision-making with any of their sharing platters. Vegetarians, feel free to indulge in the truffle gnocchi or their smoked turmeric cauliflower that's served with pickled onions and pistachios. Not afraid to experiment with bold flavours, allow TUPI to infuse your meal with the warm embrace of South American dining.
