Blacklock a modern version of the Great British chophouse. Nestled cosily in the corner of Canary Wharf, underneath the train tracks of the North Dock. Feel the comforting rumble of trains passing overhead conjuring memories of some of our favourite haunts underneath the bridges in NYC. 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 chop mecca. On Sundays we serve a Sunday Roast (almost as good as Mum's). Bookings and Walk-Ins available.

    Super good vibe and really classy for an afternoon brunch. The sun was out and they put us on the outside terrace. The service was a bit pushy they asked for orders 7 times and stood there while we were trying to decide, however the reception team was super helpful and kind. Definetly will go again.

    This was well worth the wait!! I’m not really a tomato person but both the bruschetta and burrata with winter tomatoes were delicious! I usually try to avoid sourdough bread as most places serve them tough but Tom’s sourdough bread was perfectly soft. I would also highly recommend the oyster mushroom tagliatelle. And of course the star of the show was the tiramisu!!! Again, not a tiramisu person because I don’t like coffee but this was perfect! As someone who doesn’t consume any alcohol, I also really appreciate that they don’t add any to their tiramisu.
