The Nickel Bar - (Near City of London, South East)

Vanessa Thompson The food was amazing, tasty and fresh. The ambience is lovely and the service was great. Definitely need to come back to try more of the menu

Adam Morrison Lovely interior and great range of beers. Looks like the pub does lots of activities and has private rooms you can book. Had a really nice BLT sandwich and Gamma Ray IPA

Patrick Carr Right. The food is spectacular. If you can, try and sit at the bar where amazing Fatou is a waitress. She made genuinely stonkingly good recommendations that were perfect in terms of what we were looking for at lunch. She also looked after us so well. Wagyu gyoza (prepare to fight whoever you’re with for them), snow crab (my wife loved), JFC (my fave, get the spicy version). The chocolate and citrus mizumono dessert is also very special. My Mrs isn’t bothered about anything chocolate-y but thought it was great. I’m a choco-holic and agreed. PS - Electric Diner (just across the room) is great too. Chicken Waffles in on Friday ace. PPS - Stick around and go to the main Ned bar. They play really great live music in the evenings, on the stage (see pics).

Zay A Amazing food, so tasty and delicious. Great customer service from Mary and Yolanda. They really took care of me. Will deffo come back!!

Khost Milad (Dr) Blacklock Shoreditch was an exceptional dining experience from start to finish. The steak was truly outstanding in both flavour and quality – perfectly cooked, rich, juicy, and clearly prepared with real skill and care. Every bite felt deliberate and confident, exactly what you hope for from a restaurant known for meat. The sides were equally impressive and far from secondary; each one was full of flavour and thoughtfully prepared, complementing the main dish beautifully. We visited on a Friday night, and although the restaurant was very busy, everything felt calm and well organised. There was no sense of chaos or rushed service, which says a lot about how well the place is run. The staff were attentive, friendly and efficient throughout. We went for the “All In” option, which was an excellent choice. It included a starter and two sides, and for two people the total came to £63 including the service charge. For the quality, atmosphere and overall experience, it felt extremely good value. A restaurant that genuinely lives up to its reputation.

Hems Patel Took my friend here for his farewell dinner in London and we had a great meal. The sirloin steak was charred on the outside and juicy in the middle, cooked exactly right. The beef dripping chips were thick‑cut, golden and addictive, while the beef dripping fries were crisp and impossible to stop picking at. The mash with gravy was smooth, buttery and comforting, and the macaroni cheese was creamy, gooey and easily the side that stole the show. Friendly service and a relaxed atmosphere made it a really nice evening.
