What people say, in short
Lord's draws strong burger recommendations, with several diners naming it a city favorite. The Welsh rarebit burger and beef fat fries each receive praise. One critic finds the cheese overwhelms the patty, another dislikes the seasoning, and a separate diner considers the burger overhyped. One visitor describes the burgers selling out before their early reservation.
