About this restaurant

  • Lively
  • Good for groups
  • Good for special occasions
Blacklock a modern version of the Great British chophouse. Set in an old electricity substation on the site of London"s oldest meat market. We take the best meat in the country from the award-winning farmer and butcher Philip Warren in Cornwall. We cook chops simply over our real charcoal grill with a little help from vintage Blacklock irons and serve it all up alongside cocktails that give back and wine on tap in our atmospheric subterranean chop mecca. On Sundays we serve a Sunday Roast almost as good as Mum's.

We have limited spaces for Walk-ins, so we encourage booking in advance to avoid disappointment during busy times.

    Sunday roast did not disappoint! Everything was delicious. When deciding on a place for Sunday roast Blaclock City should be at the top.

    INCREDIBLE roast, drinks, pudding and service. Shout out to Dermot who looked after us SO well (and even brought over free cheesecake when he overheard me mention it was my birthday). 10/10 for cocktails too - the luna colada (I think it was called??) was fantastic. Will absolutely be returning!

    We came for the Sunday Roast and it was excellent. The staff was super accommodating and found a quieter table as a member of our party is hard of hearing. Excellent experience!

    Best time, came for my boyfriends birthday and can honestly say we both loved it, staff were super friendly, we was an hour early coming into London so called them up to see if we could change our booking time and considering it as a busy Sunday they accommodated us accordingly! Thanks again guys! We will definitely be coming back!
