7. Depends on what day you go.

Tuesday and Wednesday you can probably get away with getting there an hour ahead of opening and get served. Thursday you need more time, Friday, Saturday and Sunday people are camped out in front at 6am or earlier. It’s that good.

You can also pre-order ahead of time to avoid the wait. But it’s a 5 pound minimum and a $75 deposit to do that. Check the website for details.
