Food Quality and Taste

Pros:

  • "The combination of soft scrambled eggs, chives, caramelized onions, sriracha, and honey mustard, all enveloped within a beautifully crafted bun, resulted in a flavor explosion like no other."
  • "Genuinely fantastic egg sandwiches here. I got the Gaucho, and oh dear lord was it good. That wagyu and chimuchuri sauce combination was delicious."
  • "The eggs in the Fairfax were so creamy, with chives and the perfect amount of spice."
  • "Food’s usually good here, however it would be nice to see some sort of meal option since the portions are usually fairly small for what you’re paying."
  • "The scrambled egg bun is very nice. I can appreciate why people love it; in saying that, I can't say it lived up to the hype."
  • "I ordered a portobello truffle and an extra burger patty. That is amazing! I’m not a truffle lover due to I haven’t had tasted any satisfying match, neither with pasta nor risotto."

Cons:

  • "I was so excited to finally get here, but it was underwhelming. I had the fairfax with avocado, but it felt like something was missing. A lot of soft, bland flavours. Needs some S&P, or maybe pickled onion?"
  • "Tasted quite good, but I do wish the egg was a little more well-done as there was a lot of runny yolk dripping from my sandwich."
  • "The food was amazing! I ordered the Gaucho and my wife the Fairfax and were pleasantly surprised with the taste and how filling the egg sandwiches were."
  • "My son asked me to go back, as he tried it before and loved it. My only concern this time was the bread felt so dry, not sure why."
  • "Had the cheeseburger (£11.45). Meat quality was decent, but patty was too finely ground, slightly over cooked, and every mouthful had gristle in."
  • "I mean, it’s ok but £10 for an egg sandwich. It is good but not value for money. I can defo do the same at home, it’s not unbelievable, but as far as getting good food it’s hard to beat the consistency."

Customer Service

Pros:

  • "The staff is very friendly & food is ready in no time. Perfect for a quick bite if you’re round Portobello market."
  • "First Time Trying Eggslut And It Did Not Disappoint But What Made It A 10/10 Experience Was The Customer Service From The Worker Sofia To The General Manager Abraham."
  • "Who new egg could be so much worth the hassle? Thisnplace is amazing. I couldn't recommend them enough. The staff are amazing and warm on reception."
  • "Welcoming staff and delicious food. I ordered the Fairfax which is absolutely scrumptious but I received it cold. The manager immediately asked for a new one to be made and kindly brought the new hot one out to me with an apology."
  • "I made the pilgrimage after seeing this on Tik Tok and I was not disappointed I had the signature bacon, eggs and cheese and it was beautiful, the only flaw was it was not as hot as I had expected, just warm."
  • "The service however was not great apart from the man behind the till, he was great and tried to fix the issue immediately. The other servers weren't very friendly and gave an order from our table to a different customer, without checking the tables around."

Cons:

  • "Simona should not be facing customers, I’ve been coming to Eggslut since they opened up and never had to deal with such a rude and unpleasant member of staff."
  • "The place has practically a fast food set up where you order as you enter and then you need to keep an ear for your name which is been shouted loudly from the stuff so you can collect."
  • "The service was a 3 out of 5. After 3 sandwiches with potatoes tots and water, it was over $100 USD! WAY OVER-RATED!"
  • "The service was admittedly very tasty, however I don’t think the price was justified at all."
  • "Almost a 5. They are very very good. Positive criticism, Just need to get the buns right! Just a bit cold each time I've been which means the come out a bit hard."
  • "Terrible service. One person on the till, who didn’t even acknowledge us until we’d been stood at the front of the queue for 10 minutes."

Value for Money

Pros:

  • "The food was as good as it looks! Victoria was with us recommending their best seller and her service was outstanding.. i recommend everyone to come Eggslut and try their amazing food.. they also do student discount!"
  • "Who new egg could be so much worth the hassle? Thisnplace is amazing. I couldn't recommend them enough."
  • "Waited so long for Eggslut to open in Stratford.. the food was as good as it looks!"
  • "I highly recommend for a quick breakfast. Eggslut with scrambled eggs and caramelized onion is delicious, probably the softest bun I have ever eaten! Really super tasty."
  • "Great Sandwiches! Long queue, and the prices are probably a bit steep but the staff are great, the guy cooking the scrambled eggs for 25 minutes looked committed to making eggs great again and he succeeded, worth the wait."
  • "I love Eggslut and visited several in the US. Sadly I won’t be making this a regular visit. I live locally to this branch but I feel nearly £10 pounds for a Sausage muffin is a bit on the steep side."

Cons:

  • "I would only come here to try the main egg brioche rolls themselves as the add-ons and drinks are very expensive."
  • "Good quality but very high prices."
  • "The prices are outrageous when you pay £9 for a small pot of egg with mash potato and three thin slices of bread. Sausage burger - a joke as well - for it’s price £9.5."
  • "The price might be a little bit expensive, but it’s a proper burger. Either regard it as breakfast or just a burger, it’s no doubt a proper served one."
  • "I highly recommend for a quick breakfast. Eggslut with scrambled eggs and caramelized onion is delicious, probably the softest bun I have ever eaten! Really super tasty."
  • "Been meaning to go for a while but waited for the queues/hype to calm down. I ordered the sausage egg and cheese for takeaway it was quite greasy and the bun was cut so I had a much larger bottom half compared to the top of the bun which made it a messy eat."
