Burger & Lobster High Street Kensington

Walk into High Street Kensington and you'll spot the place by its no-nonsense exterior—all exposed brick and unfussy charm. Inside, it's all dark wood and close-quarters seating that actually encourages you to eavesdrop on other people's meals. The menu is refreshingly short: lobster, burger, or lobster burger. Honestly, that's it, and that's the point. You're here for one of two things, cooked properly in an open kitchen where you can watch it happen. The lobster comes split and griddled with brown butter that's borderline sinful, while their burger—a proper smashed patty situation—arrives with a lobster tail option if you're feeling adventurous.
