Louis' Lunch

261-263 Crown St, New Haven, CT
Tel: (203) 562-5507
 

Yet another first for New Haven: not only did the city introduce pizza to America, it is also home of the hamburger, introduced to the world by this diner in 1900. If you drive or walk by too quickly, you might miss this small, unpretentious, cottage-like building tucked away along the bustling street. But, on the inside, New Haveners enjoy "a bomb" of a burger, so good that ketchup and mustard are no-no's. The burgers are grilled vertically for the best taste possible, and if you ask nicely, you might get a slice of cheese. Maybe. This is a classic New Haven landmark not to be missed!

  • The place was charming.
  • Service could not have been ruder.

“I heard wonderful things about Louis' lunch, so I was quite excited to eat there. The service was most unfriendly. The food was a hunk of chop meat on white toast. The flavor, bland. I tried to ask for salt and pepper, but was informed "don't even ask". To say I was disappointed is an understatement.”
