Blacklock – City of London

Blacklock – City of London

Blacklock is a popular London’s steakhouse chain. Expensive, but high quality meat. Service lags during peak hours ever so slightly. Get there early. Grilled steaks are top-notch, but we recommend the Sunday roast, a British Sunday tradition. Blacklock is highly rated at 4.7 stars on consumer rating sites.
