If burgers are your thing, then Byron is the only way forward. Without doubt the hosts of the best onion rings *known to man*, the Monterey Jack cheeseburger is a fave... Ps. Milkshakes.
Burgers are so good you won't even have time to Instagram them. Plus they serve their Hendricks & tonic properly, with cucumber. And did I mention the delicious iced tea?
Don't expect to cut in line, to dine with plates and to listen to bad music: everything is taken with a hell of a cocktail, though. Try the Dry Daiquiri and the Dead Hippie
One of the best burgers I ever had. Order their classic 'Ari Gold' Cheeseburger with their delicious chicken wings and fries!
The burger was super awesome. The fries was average. Soda machine provides 100 different tastes! Much cheaper than other burger joints in London (5£ only). You get free peanuts while waiting yay 👏
Really nice lobster or lobster roll 20£! Comes with chips and salad. Great place for a lobster feast!
Dont miss their whole lobster and lobster rolls! The only drawback is the process of cutting which i found difficult. You get to wear a plastic apron. For 20£ you get a whole lobster, fries and salad.
Judged "Good" in the Oct 2011 London burger feature in the FT: “chunky, juicy, nice hint of charcoal and melt-in-the-mouth”; “generous thickness with sheen of yummy beef fat – a satisfying burger”. Read more.
The deliciousness of the "Mother F" (two beef patties, double Gloucester cheddar, Iberico lardo) will certainly leave you swearing. Read more.
Its coffee is organic and blended in-house; its light bites come in the form of Italian/Australian nibbles made fresh daily; and music is at its beating heart. Read more.
Regular size is extra big. Go for the little burgers. Also small fries are enough for two for sharing. Free peanuts while you wait and a stupid amount of soft drink options. Downstairs is more quiet.
If you’re into Ramen then you’re gonna love this place. These guys know a thing or two about boiling bones. Oh and the guy behind it all is Ross Shonhan, former head chef at Zuma and Nobu, nuff said! Read more.
Great place! Get here early or you won't have a place at a table. Kakuni highly recommended (pork belly cooked in cider!!) Japanese take on fish'n'chips excellent also.
I really enjoyed my visit. Super soft buns and loads of perfectly cooked meat (flesh). We had confit duck leg and fried sole. Yum (although confusing 2 buns per person limit).
Dishoom feels like a walk-in sepia photograph. It also serves terrific food, like a delicately flavored berry pulao, the tart Parsi-style biryani. More of London’s best food: http://tandl.me/XAVcNk
Best Vietnamese in Shoreditch! Signature dishes: Phở (rare steak, well-done flank, beef tendon or beef tripe) and Beef wrapped in betel leaves
Breakfast-to-go from the Albion’s bakery at the weekend is a must - the giant pastries are second to none – but be warned, there’s only one coffee machine – so prepare to queue. Read more.
Non-coffee experts are also welcome here. Typical Shoreditch crowd - posing with their iProducts and sketchpads - but every now and then a coach-load of wanderers turn up to mix things up a little.
Best coffee in Leather Lane. If you have time, have a syphon filtery thingie at the bar.
Gelupo is one of the London’s best-kept secrets – an outstanding ice-cream parlour not even five minutes from Piccadilly Circus. Step inside, and feast your senses. Read more.
Drinks and cakes here are a bit too sweet, so you should have either a cake or a sweet drink but definitely not both!
Great place for cake and coffee after visiting Columbia Flower Market. Come early to avoid crowds especially on sunny days. Try the red velvet cake with cocnut. Read more.
Average pizza, overpriced for what it is. Save your money and buy some decent Turkish food instead.
One of my favourite London offies. They have a great choice of bottled beers particularly from some of the new London breweries.
Come early and avoid the crowd. Lunch is great value for London. If you go for the Katsu Curry, ask them to heat it up longer as the microwave isn't that powerful.
"Choose from 13 types of kebab boldly seasoned with chilli, garlic and parsley - the minced lamb beyti kebabs are sensational, an explosive combination of heat, carbon and hot lamb juices..." Read more.
BYO at Tayyabs which keeps things cheap, but at the weekend show up earlier than you want to eat because the (not really justifiable) queue - even if you book - will leave you ravenous.
"Remarkably good pizza. The pizza al taglio – big rectangular pizza, from which Malletti cut you a large slice – once reheated in the little counter-top oven, sings..." Read more.
Go to Bea's of Bloomsbury. Try any of the heavenly cupcakes. If Bea is around, say Hi to her.
Best Burritos in town, perfect for hangover cures or even if your just plain hungry. They are enormous and very tasty indeed. My fave is chicken with peppers, extra guacamole and chilli. Love em.
Order cheese and cheese burger and oreo or vanilla shake. Onion rings are good but fries not good really.
the best roast duck in London without any doubts don not forget to order Deep Fried Beancurd with salt and pepper.
One of my favorite shops worldwide, finally opened its EU branch! Very nice T-shirts with a unique touch!
Delicious and veey gorgeous cupcakes, especially the carrot one! Soooo damn good!
Best cupcakes in London, enough said. Recommendations: red velvet, carrot, and peanut butter cup cakes.
I consider the macaroons here to be the best in London. Many flavors to choose from; a difficult task awaits you! :) get ready!
Gastropub extraordinaire: they hang their own meat, and the milk ice cream is to die for. Read more.
Keep the tinfoil on the burritos and it is possible to eat one without needing 20 napkins. Taste great!
Grade 2 listed cafe. Pretty damn rare. Go for a slice of history and some scrambled egg on toast.
Order hot bean devilled eggs and a round of frozen margs while you work out what else you want. The ox cheek and green chilli mac and cheese are divine, as is the storied chicken roll on the bar menu.
Everyone's favourite speciality coffee shop from Fitzrovia has finally arrived in Soho, with delicious espresso based beverages and good food. Generous buy 6, get 1 free coffee loyalty scheme.
One of my favourite pubs in London... avoid if allergic to cats, as there are a few that happily roam throughout the pub. If not, make sure you pop in here for a proper London Ale.
Nice sun spot but I preferred it when it was a skate/surf shop and coffee place.
Best roasted duck in the world, they said. Take circle or district line to Bayswater station. It's worth it! Trust me!
Had no problems with the service - perfectly professional, and definitely not rude. Just because someone isn't smiling doesn't make them rude ! Portion size is large (standard Chinese "sharing" size).
