    Cheese pizza with veggies
    Kandus J.

    Okay, this place is legit! So damn tasty, great prices & yummy pizza! I especially love how they do a rotating pizza every month! I'm vegetarian so I especially appreciate when I can get a veggie one! The service is always stellar. The parking lot can fill up quickly but believe me, it's worth it!

    Our server Eric has such phenomenal customer service. We enjoyed the food, service & happy hour! It was our first time & not out last. Eric you're such a cool dude...words from Blondee lol can't wait to visit again.

    remnants of crab night

    Went to Lloyd's on Monday for crab night - how excellent! I've never had crab before, so this was great to give the experience of cracking and removing the meat myself. It is super messy - be prepared for that! Service was cromulent, if anything a bit slow, but they were very busy. This is a great choice for patio seating on a nice day - you don't feel too close to the nearby busy street.

    I've been to Lloyd's before and had a great experience, but this visit was unfortunately a disaster. Our group of seven called ahead to check wait times, and the host assured us we'd be seated immediately. When we arrived, we were told there'd be a five-minute wait--no problem. That turned into 1.5 hours. Every time we checked in, we were met with rude responses from the hostess. Frustrated, we decided to order a pizza to-go from the bar, and--of course--our table was suddenly ready right after. Before sitting down, we let our server know we had already ordered a pizza and asked if it was okay to eat it at the table. She said yes. But later, she returned with attitude, telling us we couldn't eat to-go food in the restaurant and plopped our pizza down on plates. The pizza? Cold, burnt, and completely disappointing. We were celebrating a birthday, and this experience put a damper on the night. The only saving grace was that the pizza (despite being cold and burnt) still tasted good. I really liked Lloyd's last time (cool ambiance, great food), but this visit soured it for me. Until they improve their service and train their staff in basic hospitality, I'm not sure I'll be back.

    I've been trying to get here for like 5yrs and finally made it!! I went in open minded because I did t want to have super high expectations based of time I've waited to honing so I went with a clean slate. The environment is exactly what I would expect when someone says "neighborhood watering hole". Not super run down, but not fresh and updated. Just pretty average chill space with that "we've had some moments " smell. The service was pretty average as well. I did stand at the host stand for a bit before someone finally came around and I asked to just sit at the bar. The bartenders got me a menu and water pretty quick and the female bartender kept my water topped off. I ordered the monthly special pizza which came out in a reasonable time considering it was pretty full inside. The special was a mushroom pizza. The crust was good and had a nice chew, the toppings were good maybe needed a pinch of salt but the base cream sauce/béchamel was almost nonexistent. I almost wondered if they forgot to put the base sauce in the pie because it fell so flat on flavor. I'd probably go back and try a red sauce pie because again the crust and pizza itself was good I think with standard sauce and toppings maybe it will shine brighter. It wasn't horrible but it wasn't remarkable. Certainly room for improvements but areas where I'd try again another time.

    Pizza with jalapeños and pepperoni $24

    I finally made time to visit Lloyd's in October and I was blown away! Everything about it was fantastic - the service, the food, the retro interior decor, and even the cool music venue next door. This is truly a local gem, and I'm already planning my return trip. MC A. was our server, and they was incredibly helpful and attentive with a really cool personality. We enjoyed a large pizza with half pepperoni and half jalapeños ($24), an order of spinach dip ($10), and an Instant Krusch ($5.51). Honestly, everything was delicious and a delightful surprise. Now I understand why this place is always so popular! Parking is free with a lot to the right of Lloyd's and to the left. I can definitely see it filling up quickly on weekend evenings, so I recommend arriving early if you want to avoid a wait.

    The appearance of the slice. It's thinnish, with those pepperonis that curl up.
    Andrew B.

    Lloyd's is the new Juniors. There, I said it. I've struggled to identify the vibe of this place. I think the closest thing is probably "Corner spot in any rust belt city, sometime around 1973." You'll see design elements that eventually turned into the Pizza Huts of your childhood, with a cool darkness inside the dark brick exterior. No kid birthday parties were visible. There's a community pool three blocks behind Lloyd's in a tonier part of Inman Park, and it's always crowded. If you're there for an interminable swim meet, it's convenient to punch in an order and to then hike the five minutes up and back with a pie held high for your hungry swimmers. It's the little victories, I've been told. So, the product - It's a really solid, thinner-style slice. I would put it as NY-adjacent, and they manage their dough recipes to keep the integrity of the slice during folding. Crust has a nice feel, pleasant and chewy. If you're into those pepperonis that bend upwards into little grease cups, they've got you covered. Sauce is nice and salty, with the umami we expect. As mentioned, those of you who lament the demise of Juniors in Summerhill will really get a kick out of Lloyd's. Only caveat to this review is that my first visit was takeout. Didn't really get to try the service. But, my takeout pie arrived much faster than I expected, considering the large and happy crowds that seemed to be occupying the space.

    Overall rating: 4.7 $6.29 happy hour martinis. Do I need to say anything else?!!?! I was visiting from Brooklyn & this spot immediately gave hipster energy. My only minor observation is.. I was one of only non-white ppl there. Which isn't like a fault to the restaurant but being in ATL.. idk kinda thought there would be some culture. The bartenders were really nice. So I still recommend. And the bruschetta is GIGANTIC, but on very tough bread so it was a bit hard to eat.

    I live in the neighborhood and visit often. The service has never been exceptional, but tonight I experienced what I'd consider the worst customer service of my life. Our server, Francisco, either had a bad day or simply hates his job, maybe even both. I had to flag down other staff to get items I'd already ordered through him, and at one point he walked away mid-conversation several times while we were still speaking to him. We eventually had to request a manager, who spoke more words to us in two minutes than Francisco had the entire evening. I don't like to complain, especially at a neighborhood spot I genuinely want to support, but it wasn't just that he was inattentive. There was a coldness to his demeanor that made the whole experience deeply off-putting. The Greek salad is great though!

    It was a dark and stormy night... but the rainy weather didn't stop me from checking out what the hype was all about! My foodie friends had influenced me (and then invited me) to join them in checking out their infamous happy hour. Thank god for free parking - seems rare these days in Atlanta. It was raining cats and dogs but I was easily warmed with martinis and beer. Service was a little slow, given it was quite busy that night, even on a weeknight. I was stuck in traffic but made it to the end of happy hour (5-7pm M-F), just in time to down a $6 martini (at least, in 2022. I think it's gone up to $7 now? Not bad for inflation). We ordered a few hot items to share over our drinks... the pizza fries are a must and the cheesy bread is basically a whole cheese pizza. We also tried the Great White and added pepperoni, which was a GREAT pro tip from our server. I was pretty disappointed that they were OUT of the infamous cheese pull fried mozzarella so I will need to stop in again one day. AND I'll have to check out one of their nightly meal specials like the Monday night crab legs or I pray to god they bring back the prime rib night one day. Thank god for weekday happy hours with GOOD FOOD and hope to stop in again asap.

    I love the atmosphere and vibe of this place, but I like my pizza with more cheese and more toppings. Just my personal preference!

    Great white Cheese Cheesy bread
    Anna J.

    I've been to Lloyd's countless times and honestly it just always gets better. Parking is iffy but I am always willing to forgive it here!! It's a small lot. The drinks are cheap which is a bonus and for the starters you have to get the fried mozzarella (BEST CHEESE PULL EVER) and the cheesy bread. Both are just unbelievable. For the pizza, you can't go wrong with anything but this most recent time we got the cheese and a great white and these slices are huge and delicious. The crust is perfectly thin and toasted and the everything just tastes so good. Staff here is always awesome and the vibes inside are old school and I love it. An Atlanta classic!

    Bolognese pizza
    Bryan L.

    Bolognese pizza was a lot lighter than I thought. Tomato sauce tasted fresh, ricotta was crumbly, sausage was a little dry but balanced the flavor well. Crust was puffy, thin, and delicate. Got the hot honey. Perfect compliment to the salty and richness of the pizza. Wish it was less runny. Came at 8pm on a Tuesday. Wait for food was 30-40 min.

I didn't realize that the two were connected! FYI, if you sit downstairs, you'll be seated next to where the live music performers will be playing, so it will be louder there. As for the drinks, I tried the Zombie. I loved it so much, I ordered a second one instead of trying a different one! It tasted sweet and slightly tropical with the rum and spiced liqueur.

The bartender named Jack was sweet and entertaining considering it was a slow night. He flirted a lot with my friend and it was a silly moment. We went back to enjoy a night out again before heading home the next day and Jack was there again. Because my friend had had such a good time chatting with him before she flirted back a little bit and was just enjoying the night. We ordered food and drinks and things were going well. Throughout the night Jack and my friend would sneak off and talk and make out while he was on the clock. None of this mattered to me because who cares, it's a bar, we're young and just having a bit of fun. However after we left the bar he texted my friend that it was "messed up" we only tipped 15% on our $193 bill claiming he "took care of so much" for us. I'm not even sure what that means because again - our bill for that night was almost $200. The food was amazing - I need the salsa recipe STAT - but overall the bartender ended up being kind of a jerk that seemed like he was just doing all this to get laid. Earlier this week (mind you it's July) I went back to give this place a second chance and the bartender mentioned before - JACK - was asked by one of my friends if we could get green tea shots and he felt it appropriate to confront me about this review. I apologized if my math was wrong because he claimed i only tipped 13% & not 15% was constantly saying "20% is standard" (not true but whatever) and then when i said he claimed to take care of so much HE claimed the bill should've been $250 and then said "but i understand your white entitlement lets you think you can do whatever" (idk i blacked out with rage after "white entitlement") MIND YOU you i'm half chinese not that it matters, jack - cause i know you're reading this - & i of course got heated because HES ALSO WHITE so clearly HIS white entitlement lets him think he can be hateful to patrons for reviews regardless of wether or not they try to take ownership of their faults. Needless to say the staff here is awful and I will NEVER come back to this bar so enjoy that win, Jack.

He specifically wanted to take advantage of their Monday prime rib special, which is just $20. I'm not much of a prime rib person, but I decided to tag along--and I'm really glad I did.

My friend ordered the prime rib and requested it Pittsburgh-style seared. I ordered the steak burger cooked medium-well. Unfortunately, my burger came out a little more well-done than I prefer, so it wasn't as juicy as I had hoped. My friend also felt his prime rib was a bit more undercooked than expected. Neither dish was bad, but they both missed the mark just enough that I'd give the food a 3 out of 5. One thing that absolutely deserves a shoutout was the tomato jelly that came with my burger. It was incredible! It tasted like the perfect blend of ketchup and jelly--slightly sweet but not overly sweet, with just the right balance of flavor. I ended up dipping my fries in it, and it was so good that I'd gladly order it again. It was easily one of the most memorable parts of the meal. What truly elevated the experience was the service. Our server, Sam, was outstanding. He was personable, attentive, friendly, and genuinely enjoyable to interact with. Great service can completely change a dining experience, and Sam did exactly that.
