The Blackfriar, Blackfriars

Still a beautiful pub, frequented by tourists and suits alike depending on the day of the week and the time of day. Their food has gone downhill. No more little roast potatoes with rosemary - now it's potato wedges. Don't ask for gravy on your pie, their gravy was a gelatinous blob of black(!) goo over the vegetables as well as the pie and mash. At least they do decent drinks and real onion rings, breaded, rather than the chopped up stuff in some batter and fried.
