Get the and the . People call both some of the best in the city, and the scotch egg is the other thing everyone orders. Two warnings repeat, the food runs salty and the bill climbs fast, one was $27. Go early or the can sell out. The is brunch only.

  • replying to u/sir_larry_wildman: I'd add that Lord's or Dame deserved to be on the list; especially Lord's.

    Ate at Lord’s last weekend, and everything was stellar. The burger — amazing. The fries — omg. Best I’ve ever had, perhaps.

    Honestly, right now I would prioritize Lord's. The burger is delicious and worth every bit of the hype... the fries are the best in the city... the oysters kilpatrick were outstanding, and perhaps my favorite oyster in the city, too.... scotch egg one of the first ones in America I've had that's done properly, yet totally inventive at the same time... the crispy pig's is sublime... you get the idea. This place is firing on all cylinders right now.

  • The scotch egg and oysters at Lord's are two of my favorite dishes. The rest of the menu is generally pretty good/interesting as well, although heavy. The savory pie in particular has been outstanding every time I've had it.

  • Perhaps unpopular but I didnt quite rate the lords burger. Maybe it was an off night but the Welsh rarebit cheese sauce had barely any flavor - and I do regularly make Welsh rarebit as a snack, and the patty itself was barely seasoned.

  • Overall I left feeling kind of deflated and cranky. The kitchen is clearly run by talented & creative people but the standard of service and attention to detail weren't where I wanted them to be, and I got the sense they were coasting on reputation/social media hype.

  • replying to u/eatfrenchtoast123: Second this! Just went this past week and loved it! Did not need to fight a war to get a table lol. Am not familiar with British food but thought everything tasted good, service was great, interior/vibes were classy. They serve 12 burgers per night and apparently it’s good so if you are flexible on time and can go for an earlier dinner your chances are pretty good!

    the burger SUCKS. Dry ground beef on a dry brioche with some cheese too mild to replace the total lack of flavor.

  • The cheese overpowered the beef patty to the point where I could barely taste the meat. The bun had a great taste and texture, but was greasy enough that you needed to wipe your hands after touching it, making it a good but definitely not a great burger.
