    I got a reservation for brunch. Not going to lie finding the entrance was confusing. The decorations in the restaurant are very cute,loved the tea pots. The Scottish egg was delicious lots of flavor and the oysters were interesting, best part was the pancake it was fluffy and sweet perfect way to end the meal.

    I've been wanting to try out this British spot for a while. I finally dined here for brunch with a friend without a reservation. Thankfully, since it was chilly out, we didn't have much of a wait. The interior was lovely with an old world charm. When I saw Scotch Egg on the menu, I knew I had to try it, especially because it's rare to find it. This particular one was Curried Lamb, which was satisfyingly crispy on the outside, filled with well seasoned lamb in a tasty, boldly flavorful, savory sauce. The egg was perfectly cooked and all the ingredients came together beautifully. I also had to order the Sticky Toffee Pancake, above came with butter and plenty of sweet, glazed toffee topping. It was only 1 pancake, but made quite well. The edges were slightly crispy, while the pancake was nice and fluffy. My friend got the coveted Welsh Rarebit Cheeseburger, along with a side of fries, which was not included, so cost extra. The meat was irresistibly thick, and juicy, while the cheese was delightfully melty. The Steak Fries were oh so crunchy and addicting. Service was friendly and attentive. Everything came out in a timely manner. I'm glad I had a chance to come here for brunch.

    Came for the burger around 6:30pm but was out of luck. We snagged an outdoor table, even though there were spots at the bar (even when we left, the same spots at the bar were still empty). I'm not a fan of outdoor dining and we actually ended up getting cigarette ash in my husband's drink from someone smoking on their fire escape above the outdoor tables. Shout out to our waiter Damani (sorry if I spelled it wrong!) for speaking to the smoker. Aside from the seating/smoking fiasco, the food is great. We're big fans of Dame, but were so disappointed by Crevette. It's good to know the food shines here. Our favorite dish was the Peekytoe Crab and Uni toast. So much so that we ended up ordering another one. We will definitely return for brunch so we can get the burger and pancakes. Hopefully we can get reservations for inside so we don't have the cigarette ash problem.

    While instagram hype and tiktok take over the food industry, a lot of these spots are now touting "12 burgers per day" and then we have no more. Lords does the same thing but the burger is available at brunch in an unlimited quantity. The real question. Is it hype/sensation that is making the burger that amazing? Does the scarcity add to the value proposition of this illustrious burger? at a pocket emptying $26 for a "welsh rarebit cheeseburger" I can't say its worth the price. Is it good? Absolutely, is it delicious? 100% yes. Is it worth waiting on a line for a chance to have one in the afternoon with only 12 being served? No. Menu is extremely over priced for the value. The question becomes is it worth it? Oysters kilpatrick $5.00 each? HELL No. Peekytoe crab and uni on toast $24? No. A handful of Chips at $14.00???? HELL NO!! Sticky Toffee Pancake? $18.00? Sort of worth it Banoffee French Toast $18.00? Yes. worth it Hot Coffee $5.00?? NO! Bloody Mary? - delicious but not worth the price All in all this place is hyped up and everyone is feeding into it. Everything is just okay, The prices are ludicrous. A single Scotch egg at $18 is highway robbery. Been twice. Tried it and tried it again to see if I had a different opinion. but just not worth the value for the food. There are better options out there that hit just as good. Service is impeccable and the food if it were about 45% cheaper would be worth it.

    Please see my review for Raoul's for the full picture. I was on the fence between three and four, but the server/bartender was very nice and accommodating and the food wasn't BAD, so I can go with four. Came here on the trek to try all the reported "best burgers" in NYC. I've had Sip & Guzzle's. And Raoul's. And Red Hook Tavern. Lord's rarebit burger is probably on the bottom of all those. It was unexciting. It tasted kinda like nothing. The fries ("chips") were hot and meaty and tasted good. A half order is huge so you may wanna get a half or have someone to share. Also, even though I made a reservation right when the reservations first opened, it took me five minutes to even get inside to tell the hostess I was there. There was a huge line of walk ins waiting on this prestigious burger, and there wasn't any prioritization of those who had planned ahead. Also, despite making a reservation, because I was a single diner, I was relegated to bar seating only. No table. This would have been fine overall, until they packed us all in like sardines and the guy next to me was practically sitting in my lap and elbowing me constantly. I did like the Scottish egg. Gooey and yolky with a great seasoning and crisp. Like Raoul's, they make a limited number of burgers per night, but if you come Saturday or Sunday during brunch, it's unlimited. Honestly, I would come here again because their regular menu with British food seems interesting and pretty palatable. Various forms of fish and steak with different toppings and dressings, sophisticated flavor profiles and lots of seasoning (despite the British reputation for bland food). But the burger? Raoul's for Manhattan. Red Hook Tavern for Brooklyn. I've had better burgers in a lot of places, including one of my stand by spots, Freeman's.

    Snagged a last min res for brunch. Walked in and was seated immediately. It's cute inside! Smaller than I thought but cute. We went for the burger and it was absolutely delicious - the burger is on the brunch menu as opposed to the 12 burger limit for dinner. Really rich but really good. Chips were thick but crispy and hot. Also got the scotch egg - a fun take and app! Really yummy. The pancake... omg... if you come for brunch and don't order the sticky toffee pancake, you've fumbled the order. We almost didn't order it but I'm SO happy we did. Great way to end the meal. Drinks were yummy too! We will make our way back for sure.

    Amazing food and excellent service from Damani. Just don't sit outside. I actually had cigarette ash spill into my drink from someone smoking on the fire escape which I believe is illegal. Definitely try the crab uni toast which was my favorite of the night.

    Alicia A.

    Food was an absolute experience. The service here is warm and friendly. They are very attentive and they know how to curate the experience. The scallop was incredibly delicious. Also the duck is gem of a dish! The atmosphere is warm and cozy. Great spot for dinner after work, or evening dinner date.

    Everyone tells me British food is not great so that made me want to try it for myself. Everything we got was flavorful but slightly too salty for our preference. The Scotch lamb egg was delicious and I loved the fries. Super fatty and crispy. They're known for their burger so we ordered one. It was a good burgle but felt pretty standard too n again a little too salty for us. The Banoffee fresh toast is my favorite. Very sweet but it was so delicious and helped balanced out all the salt. Service was great and restaurant had a British pub vibe to it. Also, all of their food is quite heavy so make sure to be prepared for that. This one meal kept me full literally the entire day.

    Curried Lamb Scotch Egg
    Eric H.

    Walked into Lords like "yeah yeah, British food," walked out a believer ‍ 506 LaGuardia Pl, NYC Started with the curried lamb scotch egg -- absolute banger. Crispy, spiced, zero notes. Washed it down with a proper Guinness (they pour it right, respect ). I'll admit it: I side-eyed the "only X burgers per night" thing... That doubt vanished after one bite of the Welsh rarebit burger. That rarebit sauce?? Still renting space in my head. Prime blend patty, bed of onions, tangy, powerful, balanced -- a wonderful companion if I've ever met one. Closed strong with the blueberry compote & corn ice cream choux bun. Didn't expect it. Didn't stand a chance. Top-tier service, cozy energy, incredibly lovely evening. Already planning the return like a man who knows what's good.

    Nice warming meal on a cold new york evening, the depth of flavors was unmatched. A friendly staff will greet you upon your arrival. The scotch egg was possibly the best one I've ever had, the chicken and Guinness pie were old classics given modern twists. Not picture is the sticky toffee ice cream dessert, which is now in my top five ice creams of all time.

    Pria H.

    Absolutely worth the hype! My friends and I got there 30 mins before opening on a Sunday to snag some bar seats without reservations. We ordered the scottish egg, the burger and the french toast and everything was a 10/10. Our server was also delightful and had great recommendations. Definitely worth the try in my opinion!

    Was inspired to come here after watching a video on how Lord's made the best scotch eggs in New York, and they definitely did not disappoint. I ordered the scotch eggs and crispy pig's head, and both dishes were so good that I ended up ordering a whole short rib pie as well. The scotch eggs were pure perfection, with crispy outsides, jammy yolks, and an amazing combinationof lamb sausage, curry flavoring, and an herbal cream sauce. I was really impressed with the pig's head as well- I had no idea what to expect, but it turned out to be some super tender pork cooked into a crispy triangle, paired with tangy endives and good mustard. The short rib pie was great as well, with a buttery crust and juicy meat. Service was great and the ambiance at my bar seat was cozy. Some of the best British food I've had.

    Not terrible but not worth ordering big chunks of dates

The ambiance feels straight of the golden age, which is an aesthetic I'm certainly a sucker for. Even their robust cocktail menu fits the bill and is one of the prettiest menus I've ever had the joy of perusing. Staff was able to sit us a little bit ahead of our reservation which was also much appreciated. Wait staff was also very helpful and attentive, I don't think I've ever had my water glass so topped off! Starting off with cocktails, this place is a gin bar through and through and you'd be making a mistake if you didn't try one of their many options. I went with the 10,000 words, which you simply just give a spirit of your choice (I picked gin of course) and whether you antes) wanted your drink shaken or stirred and the bartender does the rest, so a bit of a surprise! I wound up with their version of The Last Word which was delightfully citrusy but I was hoping I'd wind up with something a little more adventurous app things considered. My girlfriend got the blackberry G&T, which was not only very pleasing to look at but delicious to boot. For food, we started with splitting some zucchini blossoms and beef cheek bao buns (both come in portions of 3). Both were tasty, but I love a good bao bun and these were so light and pillowy, I could have just went for an order of those for my main course. For the entree I went for the roasted half chicken, perhaps the most unassuming choice on the menu but this was maybe the best roast chicken I've ever had. Prepared perfectly, cooked to perfection, excellent portion size, and the kicker of it all was the stunning gravy that I was tempted to lick my plate for. Chicken is very easy to screw up, and they nailed it on all fronts here. My girlfriend went for the Valerie Signature burger with white cheddar and this thing did not mess around! A very rich patty, cooked to her temperature of choice served alongside some garlic truffle fries that made an American classic feel just a little more elevated. Our experience was delightful and I'd love to comeback here again, especially to check out more of the cocktail menu and soak in more of that golden age aura the place gives.

The speakeasy vibe and the dark ambiance really makes this place feel even more exclusive. With just a few tables and the bar setting, you're in for an experience you won't forget (unless you answer the wrong questions and really end up with a drink you don't like HA). This wasn't my case.

Our amazing curator came by to ask us all a few questions, write down a few words in the napkins, and mix up the perfect drink that our master bartender crafts, curates and creates. My drink came as I couldn't possibly imagine. It looked like a Negroni smelled like Oaxaca, with all the smoke simmering up and preparing my sensory experience, leading to the best first sip.
