Hawksmoor is one of the UK's most popular steakhouse restaurants, with this flagship location in Spitalfields providing an excellent venue space at the back of the main restaurant. The private dining room is affectionately named the Vesta Tilley room, after a trailblazing music hall performer who used to thrill audiences in the late 19th and early 20th century with her male impersonations. Able to accommodate anywhere between 35 and 55 seated guests, this versatile space is suitable for everything from indulgent business lunches to lavish private celebrations. This large room features exposed brick walls, leather bench seating, wooden floors and a thick curtain separating you and your party from the main dining room, ensuring total privacy.
The dedicated team at Hawksmoor Spitalfields are happy to assist in curating your event precisely to your liking, from meat feasts to wine tastings to standing drinks receptions complete with canapes and cocktails. If you’ll be opting for a sit down meal as part of your event, there are sharing menus suited to all budgets, including either two or three courses of traditional hearty British fare. Starters include delights like smoked mackerel salad and fillet carpaccio, before moving on to the main meaty event. Choose between a variety of grass-fed charcoal grilled steaks and dig into sirloin, chateaubriand, bone-in prime rib and more, all served sliced in skillets and accompanied by a selection of sides and sauces.
If you or your guests are not so keen on meat, there are fish and vegetable alternatives too, with vegan options available by request in advance. Desserts are kept simple with a choice between sticky toffee pudding and plum pavlova - if you have room left!
For your special event, cocktail receptions upon arrival can be arranged, and the team can suggest wine pairings tailored to your menu choice.
