Nestled by the water in Canary Wharf, you’ll find Hawksmoor Bar. It features a nine-metre bar, polished timber ceiling and plush velvet booths. All of this makes Hawksmoor Bar an excellent spot for an event or party, where you and your guests will be well taken care of by lovely staff and top-tier drinks.
Hawksmoor Bar is the brand's largest bar to date. It boasts a heated waterside terrace that's able to cater for events all year round, with space for up to 160 people. This outdoor space features comfortable seating, a state-of-the-art sound system and dramatic views of Canary Wharf.
Although there is certainly a keen focus on drinks here, it also serves the same a la carte menu as the restaurant upstairs, just in a more casual setting. In fact, Hawksmoor Bar really hits a high note when it comes to special occasions. It's able to accommodate up to 250 guests in the winter, and 340 in the summer, for exclusive-use drinks receptions and networking events.
There are also semi-private spaces to hire for groups of up to 160 people. These are a great option for the likes of after work gatherings, parties and special celebrations. If you'd like to host a more intimate seated event, Hawksmoor Bar can cater for seated group dining experiences of up to 34 people.
Cocktails here are playfully grouped into themes such as ‘riviera’ and ‘sundowners’. Riviera cocktails include summery mixes like the bellini Moscato or pine americano, while sundowners feature nightcaps like the pecan godfather, made with Amaro Montenegro, seven tails XO, espresso and grappa. Martinis, meanwhile, are kept at minus 15 degrees Celsius to guarantee the perfect sip, with options including the Douglas Fir silver bullet or Japanese Delmonico. Guest cocktails appear during cocktail hour and change on a monthly basis. A short but well-selected list of wines is also available at Hawksmoor Bar, alongside beers and an impressive selection of mocktails.
Food wise, expect plenty of classic Hawksmoor dishes, with a focus on impressive steak cuts, signature sauces and indulgent sides.
