Blacklock Soho is a lively basement chophouse on Great Windmill Street, close to the theatres, bars and busy streets of the West End. The restaurant occupies a space with a colourful Soho history, and its informal dining room embraces that character with close tables, energetic service and a convivial atmosphere built around generous food.
Chops and steaks are the centre of the menu, with British meat cooked over charcoal and finished using the vintage irons that inspired the Blacklock name. The kitchen works with carefully sourced animals and aims to use as much as possible, turning different cuts and trimmings into steaks, chops, burgers, pies, starters and rich sauces.
Sharing is an important part of the experience. The All In brings together beef, pork and lamb chops over grilled flatbread, while larger cuts offer a centrepiece for the table. Sides, sauces and comforting puddings keep the meal grounded in the traditions of a British chophouse, and meat free dishes provide alternatives for guests who prefer vegetables.
Sundays bring a dedicated roast menu with beef, lamb and pork cooked over open coals and served with classic trimmings and plentiful gravy. Cocktails, beer and a considered wine list support both quick meals and longer gatherings. Blacklock Soho works especially well before the theatre, for a relaxed celebration or whenever diners want bold flavours without a formal dining style.

BLACKLOCK BREWS
It’s fair to say we have a very particular love affair with Cornwall. Philip Warren looks after the Blacklock herd on the lush Cornish fields and since day one, Eddie and his team at Harbour Brew Co. have brewed all our beers from their home in North Cornwall. After a trip down to see them with the team — and a few too many that evening — we hatched a plan to brew our very own spec of Blacklock Brews.
Arctic Sky Session IPA 4.3%
A refreshing and crisp spin on a modern IPA with a slight haze and beautiful hop aroma.
Blacklock Lager 4%
Herbaceous and crisp. This light, fresh and moreish lager is just as good with food as it is without.

Wave Breaker 0.5%
Soft, juicy with a sprightly pop of grapefruit, with a clean and refreshed finish.

WINE ON TAP & BY THE GLASS
No longer the realm of students drinking Blue Nun out of a bag in their university dorm. Wine on Tap is now an incredibly sustainable way for top producers to put their best plonk in keg and for our dreams of wine to flow from a tap to come true.
