After East London's finest restaurants for all things steak, spanning everything quality wagyu to pasture-raised, grass-fed or rare breed beef? Shoreditch is filled with loads of places to eat rib-eye, sharing côte de boeuf, strip and more. Think the capital's favourite Flat Iron steak, a Spanish joint serving its beef from Basque barbecues, the ever piled-high plates of Blacklock and even those butchering their meat in-house to ensure the finest quality cuts. So, without further ado, check out the best steak restaurants Shoreditch has to offer.




Daffodil Mulligan

Irish restaurant Daffodil Mulligan sits right on Old Street, combining the hospitality of the Emerald Isle with international cuisine influences. Working with the best the land has to offer is part of Ireland's heritage and something that drives head chef Stu Hesketh and chef patron Richard Corrigan's menus.

Find flat iron steaks and 1kg of sharing Glenarm Cote De Boeuf perfectly flame-grilled here. Grab liquor and beef fat crumb mash potatoes on the side, plus garlic hispi cabbage for some greens.

Sagardi

The best steakhouses in Shoreditch? Spanish steak restaurant Sagardi has to be on your list, where they create a gastro experience using techniques from Basque Country.

Found on Curtain Road, this place prepares the finest txuleton beef from premium cattle that have lived free-range and eaten a 100% natural diet; cooking over a charcoal grill that's at the centre of the main dining space.

London Steakhouse Co. City

The clue's in the name at London Steakhouse Co. City, which you can find just opposite the station on nearby Middlesex Street. Founded by Marco Pierre White and James Ogilvie Robertson in 2008, this staple on the restaurant scene is still going strong almost 20 years later. Think mouthwatering cuts sourced from master butcher and Royal warrant holder, Aubrey Allen.

Blacklock Shoreditch

When considering steak restaurants in Shoreditch, no guide would be complete without the iconic Blacklock. This was once an East End furniture factory but the venue has grown into a Rivington Street chop house.

They're famed for quality grass-fed meat from Phillip Warren in Cornwall (the county's oldest third-generation farmers and butchers, who have bred the world's very best native and rare breed meat since the 1880s), cooked simply but perfectly over a charcoal grill.

Flat Iron Shoreditch

The best restaurants in Shoreditch for steak are topped off by Flat Iron, which is named after the team's favourite cut. They raise their own rare yet traditional breed cattle in Thirsk, Yorkshire, with the help of third-generation beef farmer Charles Ashbridge. The herd produces the most juicy, tender and flavourful flat iron that really has to be eaten to be believed, coming it at just £14.

This bargain is best enjoyed alongside sides of beef dripping chips, creamed spinach and aubergine parm, with free ice cream when you leave too. Otherwise, the luxurious wagyu is also worth a try.
