• Barbecue • Failsworth
Booked 6 times today
In 2016 the Old School BBQ was born, using a freshly imported 1982 Bluebird International American school bus from Arizona as a mobile kitchen.The bus was converted from a traditional seated bus to a fully functional kitchen, with smokers and griddles to cook low and slow BBQ food.  The OSB journey had begun, trading from humble beginnings on a local pub car park in Failsworth. Our little yellow bus soon became a familiar landmark and we became more and more popular with lunch goers who wanted freshly prepared, appetising food served with a smile.  Soon demand meant that we would be more often than not greeting our customers with a "sold out" sign, so it was time to expand.So here we are, with a covered seated area serving our firm favourites, complemented with a fully licenced bar and WC facilities... did we mention the stage?  That's right, we also provide live music from various acts from near and far - we are sure you will find our eatery to be like no other!

Blacklock is a modern take of the Great British chophouse nestled in the corner of a Grade II listed textiles warehouse. We take the best meat in the country from the award-winning farmer and butcher Philip Warren in Cornwall. We cook chops simply over our charcoal grill with a little help from vintage Blacklock irons and serve it all up alongside cocktails from the trolley and wine on tap in our subterranean chop mecca. On Sundays we serve a Roast almost as good as Mum's. We have limited spaces for Walk-ins, so we encourage booking in advance to avoid disappointment during busy times.

    Another great night. Staff very good. Food is what we enjoy. Only complaint was it needed to be hotter. We got the sharing platter. But it was still warm enough to eat to start with. The entertainment is always great. Welsh couple singing. Brilliant. Would love to see them again. The vibe is very good. The lighting is great. Will definitely be back As always we often recommend it to our customer’s and friends to head over to eat there. They won’t be disappointed

    Brilliant meal, for a joint 40th celebration. Staff so welcoming, food UNBELIEVABLE. I had a ribeye (outstanding) and my wife had the piri piri chicken which was probably the most tasty and perfectly chargrilled chicken that has ever existed. Creamed spinach and fries both delicious. Brought us a surprise birthday cocktail each at the end too. Thank you so much to everyone at the Hawksmoor for a fantastic treat.

    Out of 10 stars I would rate this place 100*. One of the best restaurant experiences I've ever had. 🎉 In summary.. - amazing steak & sides - Blacklock red wine that perfectly complements steak - beautiful, warm venue - flawless service - extraordinary value We both had ribeyes perfectly cooked to medium & medium rare. Tender, juicy, tasty and near perfect seasoning. There's a smoky flavour that you rarely experience in the UK but is a signature for high-end US steakhouses. Either way another added dimension of great flavour. A kale/parmesan side dish provided a great contrast to the steak. The sweet potato another solid side. Our wine was the Blacklock Syrah red which is a wine clearly designed by God for steak. I'm not a expert but it had a perfect acidity to cut through the fattiness of the ribeye and refresh the palate with every sip. 🍷 Lovely dining atmosphere that would work whether you're with friends, family, business, date-night or dining alone. Even the table spacing was just right. Glassware on the table is also interesting and unique. It's all this attention to detail that just keeps adding to the experience. The service was flawless. Attentive, informed with a relaxed friendliness. As I'm sure many others have remarked the pricing & value of Blacklock is truly extraordinary. Normally you get great food, service, wine & venue but then pay through the nose for it. Not at Blacklock. Blacklock seems to harken back to an old-school community capitalism with a conscience. Let's create an amazing experience, treat our people well so they in turn treat our customers well. And then price it in a way that is comfortably sustainable for the enterprise while allowing as many in our community as possible to be part of the experience. Beautiful. 🙌 Bravo Blacklock. You told us you put the restaurant in a basement because you set out to become a 'destination restaurant.' From where we sat & ate you definitely achieved that.
