"The smashburger bun at Lagom is so buttery, you have to wipe your hands after every single bite. Unfortunately that means you can’t take photographic evidence for your ‘Beautiful Burgers Spotted In The Wild’ group chat unless you want to make a sticky mess. But that won’t matter at this excellent barbecue restaurant inside Hackney Church Brew Co. near Hackney Central. Big groups jostle and laugh loudly, napkins become a precious commodity, and attention is torn between a disaster date story and the lacy crust of a smashburger smeared with sharp vinegar slaw." - jake missing, rianne shlebak, sinead cranna
"The smashburger bun at Lagom is so buttery you have to wipe your hands after every single bite. This industrial, dimly lit barbecue restaurant, inside Hackney Church Brew Co. near Hackney Central, is part beer hall, part shrine to things cooked over the fire. And eating their pink-in-the-middle, charred-all-over burger does feel like a spiritual experience. Napkins become a precious commodity and attention is torn between a disaster date story and the lacy crust of this smashburger. But it’s the smear of sharp vinegar slaw and super soft bun that really sets this apart." - rianne shlebak, sinead cranna
"Lagom makes one of the best burgers in London. It has a crispy crust, a bun so buttery you have to wipe your hands after every single bite, and a much-needed smear of sharp, vinegary slaw. But there’s more to love about this industrial, dimly lit barbecue restaurant inside Hackney Church Brew Co.. Big boisterous groups pile into the pew-like sharing benches, swilling pints and throwing blistered pork bites back like popcorn. Expect big flavours and big end-of-the-week energy." - jake missing, sinead cranna, daisy meager
"When you’re trying to please a whole group, you can’t go wrong with pints and burgers. Go to this barbecue restaurant inside Hackney Church Brew Co. for smashburgers with lacy edges and buns so buttery that napkins become a precious commodity. Lagom has big end-of-the-week energy and even bigger chicken wings. Groups pile into the pew-like sharing benches and hunker down in the moody railway arch dining room." - jake missing, rianne shlebak, sinead cranna, heidi lauth beasley
"The smashburger bun at Lagom is so buttery you have to wipe your hands after every single bite. It’s partly why it’s so tasty but it means you can’t take photographic evidence for your ‘Beautiful Burgers Spotted In The Wild’ group chat unless you want to make a sticky mess. You won’t want to anyway. This industrial, dimly lit barbecue restaurant inside Hackney Church Brew Co. in Hackney is part beer hall, part shrine to things cooked over fire, so doing anything other than swilling pints and eating heartily seems disrespectful. Big, boisterous groups pile into the pew-like sharing benches and treat every night like Friday. Blistered pork bites are thrown back like popcorn, napkins become a precious commodity, and attention is torn between a disaster date story and the lacy crust of the must-order smashburger smeared with sharp vinegar slaw. Expect big flavours, big end-of-the-week energy, and even bigger chicken wings. photo credit: Aleksandra Boruch photo credit: Aleksandra Boruch photo credit: Aleksandra Boruch" - Sinéad Cranna
