About

Set in the historic centre of the City, Hawksmoor Guildhall pairs the character of an old‑London steakhouse with a bold, modern dining room on Basinghall Street. Known for top‑quality British beef, it’s a popular choice for business meals, client hosting and events that need a strong sense of occasion.

The restaurant offers one of Hawksmoor’s largest layouts, featuring a striking main dining hall, a well‑equipped bar area and a dedicated private dining room — all defined by leather seating, wood panelling and classic detailing.

Guildhall Bar - Downstairs, the bar provides an intimate setting with warm lighting, leather booths and a long marble bar — ideal for relaxed gatherings. It works well for semi‑private events, accommodating up to 54 guests with full bar service and an elevated bar‑food menu.

Sublime Society Room

For private dining, the Sublime Society Room offers an elegant, wood‑clad space for up to 24 guests around a single table. Inspired by the historic Beefsteak dining clubs of the 18th century, it’s perfectly suited to boardroom‑style meals, celebrations and high‑impact hosting.
