Best burger restaurants in London

The restaurant "Burger & Lobster Bread Street" in London is a popular meeting spot for lovers of high-quality burgers and fresh lobster dishes. It is part of the well-known Burger & Lobster chain, which originated in 2011 on a London rooftop when four school friends came up with the idea of creating a concept that focuses on just two main ingredients: burgers and lobsters. This simple yet effective concept has proven successful and has expanded to several locations in London and worldwide. The Bread Street location, situated in the heart of the City of London, stands out due to its proximity to iconic landmarks such as St. Paul's Cathedral and offers an elegant, modern atmosphere that appeals to both locals and tourists alike.

Fresh lobster dishes in London

The restaurant is housed in a stylish building designed with glass and Portland stone, inviting guests to linger with its open, welcoming layout. The decor combines elements of American diners with a touch of sophistication—comfortable seating, a vibrant bar, and a relaxed yet upscale vibe characterize the ambiance. It is a place suitable for both a quick lunch and an extensive dinner, accommodating reservations as well as spontaneous visitors.

Burger and lobster combination

Culinary-wise, "Burger & Lobster Bread Street" stands for quality and freshness. The burgers are made from premium, aged beef sourced from selected farms, while the lobsters are wild-caught and delivered directly from the Atlantic. The "Original Lobster Roll" is particularly noteworthy—a dish featuring tender lobster meat served in a toasted brioche bun with a light lemon mayonnaise—a favorite among many guests. Equally popular is the combination of a juicy burger and half a lobster, served with crispy fries and a fresh salad. The dishes can be enhanced with a lemon-garlic butter or other creative sauces that perfectly complement the flavors. In addition to the main courses, the menu offers enticing cocktails that are carefully mixed to round out the dining experience.

Restaurant with elegant atmosphere

The restaurant places great emphasis on the sourcing of its ingredients. The lobsters are flown in live from Nova Scotia and are processed humanely just before preparation to ensure maximum freshness. The beef comes from carefully selected suppliers, underscoring the high standard of the kitchen. The menu is intentionally kept concise to focus on the quality of the main ingredients, staying true to the founders' original concept.

Burger restaurant in the city

Service is often described as friendly, efficient, and unobtrusive, making the culinary experience even more enjoyable. The noise level can be somewhat higher due to the lively atmosphere and music, which means the restaurant is better suited for social occasions than for a quiet dinner for two. Nevertheless, "Burger & Lobster Bread Street" manages to strike a balance between casualness and elegance, making it a special place in London's diverse dining scene.

Had an amazing meal at Burger & Lobster! The oysters were fresh and flavorful, the baked ones were rich and delicious, and the lobster linguine was perfectly cooked. The lobster roll was packed with tender meat, and the croquettes were crispy and full of flavor. Great food, tasty cocktails, and a lively atmosphere. Will definitely be back!

Celebrated Women’s Day at Burger & Lobster at Bread st. Near St. Paul’s and the food is absolutely spot on! Started with fresh oysters—so good, and the baked oysters were even better, rich and flavorful. The lobster linguine was perfectly cooked, packed with tender lobster, and the lobster roll was buttery and delicious. The lobster croquettes? Crispy, creamy, and impossible to stop eating. Cocktails by Alessio were amazing too—balanced, refreshing, and a great match for the food. Everything tasted fresh, portions were generous, and the whole vibe made it a perfect spot to celebrate. Team was very welcoming and friendly. Definitely recommend! Can’t wait for the next visit.

I want to tell my experience eating at this place. The staff named Julio and Gaetano were very friendly when welcoming our arrival. I went there for my Husband's birthday so when I made an online reservation from the website I made a note if I could please write on paper "Happy Birthday Daddy" and when I arrived I was surprised they gave me a card which usually in other restaurants they didn't even fulfill my request. I really appreciate them. They already prepare the table and put the card in the table before we came I heard them say, before they came to work they stopped by to buy the card. For some people a card is a small thing but for us it is something that really care about customers. I hope all staff in restaurants have good character like you both. I really recommended this restaurant, the food is very nice the lobster very juicy. My Son like the mac and cheese, lobster and the croquette and because the staff is very kind make us want to come back again. Thank you to Gaetano and Julio.

Burger & Lobster combo plates are hard to beat! Enjoyed the beef ribs more than the baked oysters which were tiny after being cooked. One of the few places that had last minute reservations on a Friday night. Many reservation slots available but place was pretty packed. Service was friendly and ambience was cozy. B&L never disappoints.

Tellement déçus par la pizzeria de Gordon Ramsay juste en face, nous avons atterri à cette adresse par hasard et avons été ravis! Plats délicieux, service parfait, un peu cher mais mémorable!

GAETANO sooo good!! 저희 서버는 GAETANO 라는 분이셨는데 매우 친절하시고 영어를 잘 못해도 스몰토크가 가능했어요 ㅎㅎ 마지막에 Thank you가 한국말로 뭐냐고 물어보셔서 '고마워' 라고 알려드리니 저희에게 한국말로 감사인사를 하셨어요~ 음식도 맛있고 트러플 맥엔치즈가 장말 별미입니당~

Nice setting. The host was very very chatty could place a word but was funny at the same time. The lobster 🦞 roll was delicious, would have preferred that it was served warm. Toilet was quite messy and wet.

My husband and I went went in on a Sunday afternoon with no reservation and were greeted by a super friendly and funny Italian manager. We were seated in a lovely area by the window. It was uncannily quiet for a Sunday in half term but that didn’t stop the team from being attentive and the food from being exquisite. We had starters and mains and were speechless at the quality, flavour and presentation of the food. The price was also very reasonable for what you got with the whole bill coming to less than £50 per person. We had paid and we’re about to leave when the staff overheat we were there for my husbands birthday. When they caught me in a moment without him and asked if they could bring him over a quick dessert to help us celebrate. The hardest bit was stalling my husband to keep up the charade. We haven’t enjoyed dining out as much in a very long time and it’s so lovely to know that this wonderful team of staff can make an impromptu birthday dinner so funny, tasty and memorable. Would 10/10 recommend.
