We went there for lunch on Saturday.


Absolutely loved everything about it, and the food was amongst the most delicious I've ever had locally.


The courgette salad with lemon and capers and a bit of parsley was very simple but the ingredients perfectly balanced.


We will definitely be back once we've saved up more pennies.


Would have spent less had we not succumbed to two glasses of (very good value) wine each :)


We eat out a lot less often than we used to, and I'd rather spend my money on one meal here than two cheaper ones at most places elsewhere in ED.


The service was absolutely excellent as well - friendly but not in-your-face friendly.


ETA: And we paid the service charge with pleasure, having first double-checked that it went to staff.

I'm hoping to have lunch at toastED today but when I go to the website and click on the lunch menu, I just get a .pdf with blocks of grey and no text. Anyone else have this problem? (I'm using a Mac). I emailed them and the address on the website isn't working. It'd just be nice to browse the menu before I go along.
They had a tasting on last night that's why. I ate there lady night and it certainly redeemed itself in terms of service (despite being busy) and food. Excellent on both fronts. Imaginative menu and great wine list at all price points. would highly recommend it. Well done toasted for getting it right! Just what we need locally and a great buzz.
Went for the first time last night with the wife. It was packed - on a Wednesday! Glad we booked. We were both utterly impressed. Delicious, thought-provoking dishes. Excellent service. Really buzzy atmosphere. Good, affordable wine. We think that toastED precisely represents what ED needed in the way of a new eatery, and hope that it proves to be the catalyst for more, independent restaurants/restaurateurs to follow suit. Can't wait to return!
Popped in this morning for a double espresso and toast just before 9 and it was quiet. Very good coffee, a small bottle of chilled water, which was replaced when empty, and toast made from lovely crusty bread. Selection of excellent conserves came in little glass containers. It came to ?5.51, which means it won't be a daily visit, but everything was good quality and the service was really friendly.
We visited for dinner last Saturday and it gets a definite 10 out of 10 from us. The food was great, service great and house wines delicious and very reasonably priced. Overall, not the cheapest meal out on Lordship Lane, but (imho) worth every penny. And we took some house rose home at ?5.95 a bottle ? great value and delicious. In fact we wanted to book for tomorrow night, but sad to say they are currently only open Tuesdays to Saturdays?.

Just wanted to add my vote of confidence for ToastED. Popped in last night and had amongst some of the best tasting food I've ever had on LL - yum! The house wine was delicious too & we left with a cheeky take home swing top bottle which I'll definitely be returning for a refill.


It also has a great atmosphere - full & buzzy but not too loud with a very mixed crowd. The service was fab too - attentive but relaxed.


I think it's a great addition to Lordship Lane.

    • If you are that bothered, why don't you ask the people at the mosque what the situation is, and let us all know? 🤣 I live round the corner and I hadn't even noticed an awning, let alone one "half hanging off". If you think it's a safety hazard, that's a different issue, and one they may not be aware of, in which case you should definitely let them know.
    • I guess, in a few weeks we will see if he is still a councillor or goes back to teaching 🤔 
    • What happened with the Heygate was absolutely scandalous. The lack of accountability is shocking.
    • Because the previous Libdem/Tory coalition council did so much better? ....Oh wait. Selling off the Heygate at a bargain price and reducing the number of council homes it replaced? Being in opposition is so much easier isn't it James.  The point on allowances etc is a valid one, and that is about finding the right balance between the responsibility of those cabinet roles and the role of service that should underpin all political aspirations in an ideal world. Holding down a full time job, while having to attend meetings and then deal with case work on top, is a huge ask imo. People in key roles need to have the time needed to do those roles effectively, so some renumeration makes sense. It's just a question of where the balance should be. McAsh has walked away from that, so his convictions are doing more talking than careerism arguably.  Worth pointing out that most MPs started out as party/ political activists/ campaigners on a local level. Different parties have different processes for selecting candidates, but everyone starts out at a low level.
