Decent. Was at old chesire cheese earlier but stopped here for dinner because it was so close to our hotel. Fish and chips were fairly good. Fish was tasty but didn't like the chips as much as the chesire cheese. Sticky toffee pudding was tasty. Also tried some of the steak pie which was nice Beer also wasn't as good as the cheese. I usually love uk ale but found it just to be okay here. Prices are comparable... They do add 12.5% service charge Service a little slow read more

I came here alone twice while I was in town, and I truly enjoyed each meal. I ordered the Mac and cheese, which was fantastic because of the thick rigatoni noodles, and it stayed warm because it was served in a heated stone ramekin-like dish. Next, I ordered the garlic roasted chicken. I actually came back the next day to enjoy the same meal, that's how delicious it was. The chicken was moist, flavorful, and paired nicely with the side salad it came with. I also had multiple different beers from their selection as I watched the FIFA games on their large television. And to finish it off, I enjoyed their sticky toffee pudding. I let the ice cream melt on it for extra flavor. The restaurant is beautiful inside, just like most of the old school pubs in London. I do have to say that the service was slow, but it's because they were busy both times I visited. Nonetheless, I would definitely return for that wonderful chicken. read more

Arrived here hoping for a Sunday roast but they were sold out (it was nearing the end of the night). We ordered a burger and a London Pride Pie. The portions were smaller, but it was enough as we were tired from sightseeing. Ingredients were good quality and we enjoyed our meal. I'm curious what the lodging is like upstairs, it would be convenient as the building is close to earls court station. read more

I would say that this is a fine pub, we needed a quick dinner and it was good for that but it was very loud, which is great if you're in the mood for it. I'd say that if you don't care too much about the food (which was expensive and okay) and you care more about the drink, this is a solid choice! My steak pie was alright, but it was around 21£ which was surprising considering its size. read more

Came in for a pint with a friend and lucky to score a table given there was a football match underway. IPA was cold and fish and chips were solid. Classic vibe, would come again if in the area. read more

Have a one night layover, heard this place had good service and food. However, my experience, literally minutes ago, was 100% the opposite. From the moment my wife and I walked in the slightly taller blonde bartender's first words to me were "NO". Not sure why a party of two couldn't wait, but the truth is that they had space for us and even after a party of two closed out, instead of sitting us, they relocated a party of four that was already eating to simply fill two extra chairs. The only nice person was a shorter gentleman/sever who tired to sit us multiple times but this same blonde kept shutting him down. It was literally our first pub experience in London and we were excited. What a let down read more

Went in around 5:15pfor a drink and to split fish & chips as a lighter dinner to share. Service was quick and efficient, drinks were delivered promptly, and food came out quickly and hot as well. The atmosphere is relaxed, but there was a bit of competition for tables around 6pm, with some less than courteous guests grabbing a table when others were waiting first without checking in with the server on staff. If there are plenty of tables, it may not be an issue to simply take a seat, however, if tables are in short supply- best to check and make sure no one else is waiting first before grabbing the next available table. Otherwise it's a lovely atmosphere and a relaxed setting for an evening meal or gathering with company. read more

Good service and ambiance. The promoted Admirals Fish pie was somewhat weak since there were no prawns just a chunk of salmon a n d sauce. Needs more fish... read more

I had time to kill before meeting up with some friends so I stopped by The Blackbird for a beer. When in London, I have to try to hit up as many pubs as I can while I can, right? The pub had a nice upscale ambiance. It's first come, first serve on tables. FYI, you cannot order food standing at the bar when there are no vacant tables. You only can order food sitting on a table. For those who know, I'm not much of a beer drinker. Since I don't know what to order, I told the bartender to surprise me with something local. She poured me a Fuller's London Pride Outstanding London Amber Ale. It was perfect because earlier in the day, while heading to Stonehenge, we passed by their brewery. The beer was good and easy to drink. Since I had time to kill, I looked at the food menu and saw that they offered a Haggis Scotch Egg. It's a dish on my list of things to eat in London so I ordered it. The kitchen didn't take long to get it out but it took time for me to finally be able to flag down a server to order it. It was delicious and the yolk was perfect. My brief visit was good and I enjoyed the local beer with Scotch Egg. read more

Food: reasonable portions with lots of options and family friendly but typical London tourist pricing (generally expensive for what you get). Service: friendly and professional, accommodating and used to tourist crowds. They are very patient and take the time to explain if you have any questions. Ambiance: cute and convenient. It is very much catered to tourists so you won't find a "local, usual pub crowd" but it's serviceable for an easy, no fuss meal. read more

Enjoyed the beer and overall dinner - friendly server and decent atmosphere. It was the 6:00 crowd- lots of families and small groups eating potato chips, talking, many regulars. Indifferent bartenders but not unpleasant just not engaging or gregarious in any way - may be common here in London? Food came so quick, concerned it was precooked. The fries (chips) were very good, the large portion of fish was good but non-memorable my rank would be 7/10. I am not sure what quality to expect from London bar food but this is a little better than average bar food. read more

It has a nice pub charm to it. They seated us quickly and the server was very courteous. We ordered the cheeseburger, AP steak pie, fish and chips, and 1/2 chicken. The food came out quickly and it was delicious. We also ordered the Pavlova for dessert, which was also very good. read more

I was drawn to this place because of the building. It was beautiful and unique- dropped in and had a beer and an old fashioned. Was delicious. The service was great and the beverages were good. It is a good idea, obviously to make reservations for dinner everywhere in this area. read more

My wife and I had Sunday Breakfast here in September 2024. It was a 15 minute walk from our AirBnB and so very worth it. The pub/inn has a traditional vibe in the interior with some modern twists. Kind of the best of both worlds. It was very cool. Staff were friendly and professional. We did not book reservations and were able to be seated right away. The food was excellent. The perfect way to start a busy Sunday in the city. I had an eggs benedict, my wife had a full english breakfast, with a pot of tea each. Portions were good - filling but not wasteful. Flavours were delicious. I'd say this is worth a trip out of your way to grab breakfast, of if you're lucky enough to be staying in one of the rooms, its an easy trip downstairs. Next time we're in London I'd like to try lunch. read more

Yum! I had the London Pride Steak and Fuellers pie AND the seafood pie. It was a lot of food, but it tasted great. Well seasoned. The fries with gravy hit the spot. I'd recommend the steak pie if you had to pick one, but the seafood one had a soft boiled egg, which was a nice surprise. Check this place out! read more

When in London this is a must stop for dinner. The fish & chips lived up to the English reputation, and the Shepard pie was equally as good. I finished off my meal with some sticky pudding that cured my sweet tooth for the evening. If you need a beer, they have over 20 on tap. The service was excellent, and my food came out supper fast. The dining area and the bar area are both really comfortable. read more

We stopped in for lunch after arriving from Paris. The Blackbird did not disappoint. We had the most incredible sandwiches and chips. The fried coronation chicken sandwich with curry mayo was out of this world. The triple fried chips we also amazing. My husband had the fish finger sandwich..also wonderful.. but the chicken curry sandwich is one I would come back for. The service was also wonderful and the ambiance the perfect English pub atmosphere. read more

I really went in to try the Sunday roast and we also go the fish and chips and I have to say the fish and chips is one of the best I've had in London in all my visits to the country. It was fresh, the batter was light. The Sunday roast was alright. A bit tough but it was fun to try the food. The ambiance of the pub is quieter and seems more like a cafe because it wasn't too noisy. Would def. Come back to get their fish and chips again. read more

Enjoyed this immensely four years ago, and returned today during our first trip to London since then, and it was as fine as ever. Fish & chips, beef and ale pie, and a sharable fruit crumble were a wonderful meal. Service was fine, wonderful pub atmosphere, and it wasn't too crowded at 12:00 on a Friday. read more

Great pub with good food!! We stopped in here immediately after getting to London. Was a great first stop.

Great pub food and beers. Try the Steak and Ale Pie. Very convenient to the Earls Court tube station. read more

I ordered a Steak & Ale Pie while my husband ordered Fish & Chips. Overall, the meal was very good and comforting. I would definitely recommend to anyone traveling through London. As for my drink, I ordered a Very Berry Spritzer. It was very refreshing, almost like a seltzer. Not so much sweet. read more

For a pub, this is 5 Star. We have been to probably 10 pubs this trip, and this was our favorite. We didn't get food at every pub, mostly beers. highly recommend this 2 person pie sampler. No picture, but we have had fish and chips at 2 other pubs, this was our favorite. Service was good, and unlike many other pubs, there was a server who took order at the table. (For drinks only, still order at bar) By the way, a stroll down this street after a visit is a nice walk. read more

This place is right around the corner from our stay and I'm sad that the first time I went was our last day. That being said, it was really great.

Also I saw they had live music on Sunday nights and the place has been packed, so that looks like a lot of fun too! read more

Best pub out of our 6 day stay in London. Best fish and chips that we tried in UK. Service was amazing.

Excellent service and yummy food. Our family of 6 really enjoyed it. Traditional British food.

The staff were very welcoming when we came in for Sunday roast in the mid-afternoon. We had made a note in our reservation to please have space for our stroller, and we were given a nice table in the back where our son could continue to sleep while we ate peacefully. The Duo was amazing and I'm so glad I didn't have to choose between the chicken or the beef. My husband and I each got one because we didn't want to share. The sides were great as other reviews noted, from the potatoes to the roasted carrots and the cauliflower. We shared one sticky toffee pudding, immediately ordered a second, and promptly finished that, too. Service is great, and it was probably our favorite meal in London this week! read more
