For my 16th birthday a couple of yrs ago my mom and dad got me one of the most beautiful looking birthday cakes I've ever seen from Lord's. It was pink with huge swans all over it. The three of us ate it for about 2 weeks straight, there was so much there.
We bought a cheesecake last week for my mom's birthday and that was excellent too. The 40somethings that surround me say ""Lord's isn't what it used to be when I was a kid, bla bla bla"" but I think it's pretty damn good. Prices are decent too! Just a word of caution: I live 3 blocks away so I know this firsthand -- don't go into that neighborhood after sunset if you want to leave with your wallet and belongings intact.
Pros: great food, great prices, beautiful pastries
Cons: seedy neighborhood
