Harden's says

From a roving VW camper to street food markets to this permanent site at London bridge, the team behind Bedales of Borough have created a legend with their lobster-based fare: mac 'n' cheese, tacos and shrimp cocktail will never be the same again. As you'd expect, the wines are pretty good, too.

“Very good lobster backed up by good chips” and “fast service” win fans for this American-style joint near Borough Market, also with a bright red-and-white VW campervan offshoot that parks at various locations through the summer. But the bill can be “toppy”.

“For that lobster craving when in London… which surprisingly does not need a bank robbery” – head to this railway arch near London Bridge station (or seek out the “glimmering and rather plush-looking food truck/van” on the corner of Bedale Street and Borough High Street). It’s “a really fun and tasty meal”: the “crab stack and lobster rolls are delicious” and “you don’t feel as though you are eating from a mobile food operation – the brioche is warm and buttery, the sauce moreish and the lobster is good quality”.

“Very fresh lobster, oysters, crab, etc, plus a good choice of wines by the glass” (as you’d expect from the team behind Bedales of Borough) win praise from a small fanclub for this railway arch below London Bridge station – the permanent site for a pop-up whose hallmark is a roving fleet of VW camper vans.

For 33 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).
