Juicy Burgers with Legendary Tater Tots
Tucked away with enigmatic allure, Lucky Chip flips a nostalgic vibe towards burger connoisseurs who've seen their fair share of beef. In a city peppered with burger joints competing for attention like actors at an audition, Lucky Chip stands robust and charismatic—you'd be remiss not to try the 'El Chappo'. A heralded dish that reverently marries an aged beef patty with bacon, punctuated by the sharp twang of blue cheese and a defiant kick from jalapeño, it is arguably a burger alive with personality and soul. This delicious artistry finds a gallery in various locales such as The Old Queens Head and Netil Market, where the unwavering dedication of founder Ben Denner’s team becomes palpable in every juicy bite.Yet like any artist, Lucky Chip has its eccentric strokes—the size of certain burgers may inspire an adult-sized longing for more, and even the heartbreak of a raw surprise has occasionally rolled the dice via delivery apps. But alas, these missteps keep pace with vivacious bar staff and a convivial pub atmosphere that radiate British best. And should you find ordering tater tots adventurous—a bountiful side dressed in chipotle mayo and cheddar—sink beyond tradition and turn movies into theatrical experiences prefaced with their food. While Lucky Chip may not have settled the Sunday menu blues yet, its flavorful ethos continues to set tongues wagging and taste buds exploring, leaving its mark felt across London’s bustling burger tapestry. — Audrey Al Dente
