The Blackfriar is a Grade II* listed [1] public house on Queen Victoria Street in Blackfriars, London. [2]

It was built in about 1875 on the site of a former medieval Dominican friary, [3] and then remodelled in about 1905 by the architect Herbert Fuller-Clark. Much of the internal decoration was done by the sculptors Frederick T. Callcott & Henry Poole. [2]

The building was nearly demolished during a phase of redevelopment in the 1960s, until it was saved by a campaign spearheaded by poet Sir John Betjeman. [4] It is on the Campaign for Real Ale's National Inventory of Historic Pub Interiors. [5]
