We were honoured to be named Brand of the Year at the Casual Dining Awards in London – something we’re still a bit taken aback by.

To be recognised alongside so many brilliant restaurants (many of whom we’re lucky enough to call genuine friends, not just peers) makes it all the more meaningful.

With all of our focus over the last few months on opening Blacklock Birmingham which finally opened its doors this week, it gave us a rare and welcome moment to pause. Its moments like this remind us just how fortunate we are to work alongside such a dedicated team, and to welcome so many wonderful people through our doors every day

At Blacklock, we do our utmost best to make sure everyone leaves happy… and it’s fair to say we certainly did last night.

A huge thank you to our team and everyone who’s pulled up a chair with us over the years.

This one’s for all of you.
