New and improved 

A relaxed home away from home serving comfort food, snacks and drinks, Morty & Bob’s menu consists of locally sourced, fresh, seasonal ingredients and American-influenced dishes. Its newest opening in Kensal Rise also offers a range of healthier, lighter dishes that are perfect for regulars to enjoy daily, alongside Morty & Bob’s signature plates.

Dining options  

Serving up brunch daily from 10am – 4pm, guests can dine out on delicious breakfast dishes including the Everything Bagel with smoked salmon, chive cream cheese, tomatoes, onions and capers, or the Confit Duck Hash with mustard, a maple glaze and a fried egg. Meanwhile, nothing says English breakfast like a Brunch Bun, stuffed with bacon and soft scrambled egg alongside parmesan, chives and harissa aioli.

For lunch and dinner, guests can expect lighter mains such as a Grain Bowl with roasted greens, beet houmous, avocado, cashew and chilli oil, or salmon fillet with warm beluga lentils, peas and dill. Heartier dishes include Bob’s burger and fries, made from aged chuck and rib cap patty, burger sauce, Emmental and slow cooked onions in a brioche bun; steak and eggs with fries and chimichurri; Mufalde pasta with aubergine, olive and a rich pomodoro sauce; as well as free range chicken schnitzel with dill pickles and fired capers, chopped salad and harissa aioli.

Puddings are not forgotten with a choice of counter cakes, Hackney gelato, a warm choc chip cookie and ice cream, or fresh doughnuts with homemade Nutella to hit that sweet spot.

Sandwiches 

To really get the best out of Morty & Bob’s, we’d recommend coming here at lunchtimes because this is when the place comes alive with its tasty and affordable lunch combo, including half of its famous Grilled Cheese or a weekly sandwich special, alongside a choice of soup of the week or a seasonal salad for just £10. A range of freshly made meat and vegan weekly changing focaccia sarnies and salads are also available.

But, more on that legendary Grilled Cheese. Try the pastrami, mustard and pickle grilled cheese sandwich, and thank us later. It’s gooey, hot and filling, and tastes like you’ve gone to cheesy heaven. Get the generous-sized portion of parmesan and truffle fries on the side along with its tasty aioli, and follow this up with the comforting (and very delicious) warm choc chip cookie and ice cream, and it might just be the best lunch you’ve had in ages.

Namesake

The newest venue in Kensal Rise hosts two outdoor, covered and heated terraces, with period farmhouse tables. Making the most of the building’s period details, the space has an inclusive, informal feel, combining the sensory qualities of polished wood, brushed stainless steel and leather seating, with clean off-white walls for fresh bright mornings, and dimly lit lighting come evening.

Morty & Bob’s is headed up by owner and restaurateur, Charlie Phillips. Phillips’ love of food and inspiration from his two hardworking grandads spurred the creative idea for the much-loved eatery – his grandparents’ namesake. He initially launched a street food stall in East London’s Netil Market. The brand then toured the UK music festival circuit and ran a series of pop-ups. Today, Morty & Bob’s can proudly boast three locations across the city and here at Dish Cult, we’re proud you can book yourself a table with any of them.
