James

My God. I came here for breakfast (which was excellent) - but discovered the absolutely smashing 'Marmalade Cocktail '. It's 8am, I've sunk two of the little beauties - and I am now all set for the day

Daren Williams

Quality breakfasts served weekdays 7am to 10am. They use Ginger Pig butchery so it's all fantastic quality, though pricey . Huge venue, book a booth , seats 3-4 people.

Pete Alexander

The Hawksmoor brekky for two is pretty tough to beat. Wash it down with a Shaky Pete 's and you'll be in a good mood for the whole day, guaranteed.

Tee

Go for the big cuts on the black board to share. Recommend the anchovy butter to go with it. And then have a freshly baked peanut butter shortbread with salted caramel ice cream . ????????????

George Stein

Everything is good. You got that? Everything. Oh, especially the steaks . Even the rump is quite amazing. Really, just go here and eat. And drink. And be happy.

Lopiteaux

Scallops or tamworth belly ribs to kick off with - both to die for - followed by a huge bone-in prime rib . You won't be dissappointed. Guildhall has £5 corkage on a Monday - well worth it!

Jon

Easy to grab a table in the bar , rather than the main restaurant , anytime before 8pm. Personal highlight: the Hawksmoor Burger with beef dripping chips - forget Shake Shack, this is £15 well spent.

Monica

The breakfast never disappoints me! I had the sausage and egg hk muffin and it was done to perfection and very filling. Will definitely go back again!

Liam

One of London's top steakhouses - the steaks , sides and drinks are perfect. Leave room for dessert - they're equally good, particularly the sticky toffee pudding .

Simon Bruce

The hawksmoore Breakfast was an event . Wow. Picture is of breakfast for 3.

Benedict Cullen

Amazing breakfasts to cater for all levels of gluttony from health smoked salmon to steak and hash browns !

Punsri Samaratunga

Simply the best steak in London , bar none! Try the porterhouse cooked medium with peppercorn sauce accompanied by triple cooked chips , onion rings and lobster ! Delish!

Mar

If you are wondering if you should get dessert the answer is yes and the choice is the passion fruit cheesecake (you're welcome)

Emma Younger

Fillet steak & bone marrow gravy - wow! Best steak I've ever eaten. Perfect place for a special occasion as it is pricey but worth it.

Anna Szypkowska

Food is great, obviously you can’t go wrong with a steak but also our dessert , shortbread with salted caramel ice cream , was delicious!

JMS

Alice is an angel. Fantastic food, fantastic wine , fantastic service. Bone-in prime rib , triple cooked & beef dripping chips , half a lobster on the side and a bottle of Rioja . Meat Heaven.

Kevin Tam

Hidden away in the menu is a special that makes an excellent dessert . Try the Cornflake Milkshake ! I kid you not. (All the other desserts were good too)

James Gooch

Can be a little noisy in the main room but the food and drink is just wonderful! Full fat old fashioned is out of this world ????

Henrik

As you would expect: juicy steaks , rich sides, decent wine and cocktail list . The hall downstairs resembles a Bavarian Wirtshaus space and it works!

BarChick

The cocktail menu is massive, starting with early morning drinks and finishing with Disco Drinks, with all sorts in between. Then there’s the food – with some of the best steak in London ! Read more

Richard Revis

All round superb. Highlight was the pork belly ribs to start with. Excellent. Fillet steak and chocolate and caramel tart not far behind.

Rachel Roth

Great food and service but its incredibly loud - you will need to scream at your friends.

Anand

Steak , I have been told. Am a vegetarian and managed to find a dish (no other options) to my liking and great taste!

Rob Stannard

It is all good , but burger is great , awesome with shaky pete 's ginger brew. Big steaks are huge and demand time to eat, 2 hour lunch min. MUST do cocktail list .

Evening Standard

What you might not know is that on Mondays, these steakhouses offer BYOB , which goes down well because the prices on its wine list creep well into the hundreds. There’s a generous £5 corkage fee . Read more

Shannon Low

Amazing steaks . The ribeye is great and good for two people if you share a bone marrow starter too.

Lee Bacon

Great atmosphere, and top level service. Is expensive however, you get what you pay for, and you get excellent quality food.

Alan Morton

Reasonable good not amazing there is a big choice in London better than here... however good for business meetings 8/10

Brittany Sübers

Breakfast has avocado toast done right and you can get a side of roasted potatoes ???? t

James Gill

Amazing steak , friendly staff , and classical interior. The menus match the ceiling.

Dan

Best service I have had in London, expertly pitched between, informal, knowledgeable , friendly and efficient. The meat is decent too.

Adrian Cheong

Excellent cuts of steak . Beef Dripping Fries are amazing as well

Ian McDonald

Get the American steak as this is what the place is all about. You won't be disappointed

David Bento

Really great steaks . Prepare to spend £50 - £100 pp but definitely worth it.

Ana López de Silanes

Really good steak and cocktails . Amazing toffee sticky puding

David O'Neill

Great steak but I think the atmosphere in some of the other Hawksmoor restaurants is a bit better.

Magnus Hultberg

All the Hawksmoor restaurants have great free WiFi , although you may sometimes have to hunt a bit for a good spot to sit.

Jazman F.

Brilliant way to start your day in London, great breakfast as always.

Panos Papadopoulos

Lovely staff . The game-y rump steak is to die for. Stunning cocktails and wine list .

Ceara Pixie

The breakfast for two was amazing! The three meat sausage was great!

Adrian Cheong

Excellent cuts of meat. Beef dripping Fries are amazing.

Stefanie Holt

All the food is beyond excellent & they have a "bring your own wine " night every Monday, which is genius

Marjorie C

Come for the steaks but definitely leave room for the sticky toffee pudding - nothing compares to that!

Henrik

Juicy steaks , wine and cocktails . Breakfast is also pretty good.

Punsri Samaratunga

Porterhouse , triple cooked chips , onion rings & spinach with a lovely Rioja !

Lewis Rees

Steak , belly ribs , monkfish and sticky toffee pudding are unbeatable.

Take a sip of cocktail while waiting for the dishes to arrive. Chrysanthemum is a special one.

Tom Ryan-Elliott

Incredible!! Fairly expensive but worth it for special events

Jon Choo

The Hawksmoor breakfast is good, but I would still rather have the steak .

Eugene ????

The best steak and sticky toffee in the city ❤️????
