The Nickel Bar - (Near City of London, london)

Tom I had dinner here with a colleague on a Monday night. It was relatively quiet but then the city always is on a Monday. The decor is very nice and there is lots of space so would be interesting to see the vibe of the place when it’s full. The small plates are essentially starters and we shared the pork bites and burnt ends between two and it was probably enough. The menu is interesting! For the mains my colleague had the ribeye and I had the fillet steak. We had a side of mash with gravy and also the loaded style chips. The steaks were delicious. Really tender and cooked to perfection. The meat was great. Really up there. Big shout out to the gravy mash combo too. That was immense. The service was efficient and felt a bit upsell a few times but again that’s the city for you. We stuck with what we wanted and it was seriously good. Would definitely go back. It’s not cheap but it’s worth it.

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.

Lisa Griffin We had a wonderful experience dining here. The service was outstanding — the staff Don & Joana were attentive, friendly, and made us feel genuinely welcome from start to finish. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, creating the perfect setting for a relaxed and enjoyable meal. The food was absolutely top-notch. Every dish was beautifully presented and packed with flavour, clearly made with care and high-quality ingredients. It’s rare to find a place where the service, atmosphere, and food all come together so perfectly. I would highly recommend this restaurant and will definitely be returning! Thank you from Lisa G x

Вадим Сорока Such a great pub! Really tasty food, lovely atmosphere, and very friendly, attentive staff. I felt very welcome from the moment I arrived. Highly recommend this place to anyone visiting the area.

Whats Cookin Delicious food and great service! The curry puffs were perfectly crispy and packed with flavor, and the atmosphere at Boxhall City makes it even better. Definitely worth a visit if you’re craving tasty Singaporean street food!

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
