Sorry for the dramatics in advance, but it is seldom that I can truly give a restaurant 5 stars for food alone.
This pub is always a joy to visit for the ambiance, service, blah blah blah, but the bangers and mash here are something worth raving about.
The perfect balance of umami, acidity, and the flavors of herbs… it is just superb.
Not to mention they make a strong cocktail 👀 5 STARS

Thank you so much for the fantastic review, Jacob! We are thrilled you enjoyed our bangers, mash, and cocktails.
We strive to provide a memorable dining experience, and are delighted that we hit the mark with you.
We look forward to welcoming you back soon!


While at the Reading Terminal Market bar, the local we were sitting next to recommended we have dinner and a pint at Black Sheep.
Loved my first authentic shepherds pie and the Hendricks Rosemary Gimlet was outstanding.
If you arrive and all the levels are open, it’s worth exploring all three floors of this historic old townhouse.

Thank you for taking the time to share your wonderful experience at The Black Sheep Pub, Eric! We're thrilled the recommendation led you to a memorable meal and drink with us.
It's great that you enjoyed the shepherd's pie and were impressed by our Hendricks Rosemary Gimlet.
We also appreciate your advice to future visitors about exploring all three floors of our historic townhouse when possible.
We look forward to welcoming you back!
