Blacklock is especially useful because its official menu clearly lists a meat-free roast. The Pig & Butcher also lists a vegetarian Sunday main and specific Sunday roast accompaniments.
Tips For Booking And Budgeting
Book ahead for popular Sunday roast pubs, especially in Soho, Mayfair, Islington, Hampstead, Hackney, Chelsea and Richmond. For the widest choice, aim for noon to 12:30pm or a later afternoon slot. Peak early-afternoon tables are often the hardest to get, and popular roasts can sell out.
Check the menu on the venue’s own site before you go. Sunday menus are seasonal, and some pubs change meat cuts, vegetarian dishes and prices weekly.
For larger groups, contact the venue directly rather than relying only on online booking. Some restaurants offer group menus or require sharing dishes to be ordered in advance.
