THE BLACKFRIAR
Go there and contact
The Blackfriar is a historic pub in the heart of Blackfriars, London. This iconic wedge-shaped building, with its mosaics, ornamental balconies and famous black guardian monk above the front door, doesn't go unnoticed. Their commitment to the free-thinking arts and crafts movement is still visible in the sculptures, mosaics and relics depicting cheerful monks. The snack bar, added in 1917-21, sits beneath the nearby railway line and is popular for its barrel-vaulted ceiling. The Blackfriar was almost demolished in the 1960s, but a campaign led by Sir John Betjeman saved it. Today, this unique downtown pub is known for its rich history and Art Nouveau style. It offers a selection of tempting dishes, from seasonal specialties to British classics, as well as a wide range of draught beers and gins.
