  • Early Bird & Late evening menu - £19/£23/£26

    £19.00 - £26.00 per person

    4 Jun 2025 - 31 Jul 2025
    Out early? Out late? Hungry? Whether you’re heading to the theatre, finishing work, or just after something solid without the fuss, our new pre-Early Bird & Late Evening is exactly what you need. Same big flavours. Now at even better prices. One, two or three courses for ridiculously good value, with dishes straight from our main menu. Perfect for an early or late dinner - you choose. You’re not getting a cut-down version of the menu either - we’re talking big hitters like: 35-day dry-aged rump steak, our legendary Big Matt Burger, Charcoal Chicken Ana Mari, Roast Hake, and Ash-baked Beetroots. All mains come with a side included - pick from beef-dripping chips, baked sweet potato, buttered greens or an English Lettuce salad. There’s a solid choice of starters too (yes, Potted Beef & Bacon), and puddings that you'll regret skipping - Sticky Toffee Sundae, we’re looking at you. A little tipple? Also sorted. Let’s call it Happy Hour - you can grab a selection of drinks and cocktails, including Prosecco, Five Alive Fizz, or Canataloupe Spritz for just £6. When it’s on: Mon–Sat: 16:30–17:45 (ideal pre-theatre or after work) Mon–Thurs: 20:30–close (late bites without the late-night prices)

    Extremely busy, took close to an hour between courses. The wait staff were absolutely rushed off their feet so it wasn’t their fault, there simply weren’t enough staff.

    It was an overall excellent experience. At the start the drinks service and starts were a bit slow, however, our server kept us updated and and once they arrived we got back on track.

    Extremely noisy. Steak was cooked beautifully, but was a chewy piece of meat. My wife's burger was over cooked

    Hawksmoor is my favorite place to go for Sunday roast. I get to London twice a year and Hawksmoor Guildhall has become my regular place to be on a Sunday afternoon. The food is consistently top notch as is the service. Thanks to all of the staff for making it an all around great experience. Looking forward to seeing you when I am in London.

We’ll be sure to pass your thanks along to the team — they’ll be thrilled to know they’ve helped make your Sundays special. We look forward to welcoming you back on your next trip. Until then, take care and thank you again for your continued support! Kind regards, Apollonia

    Was a really disappointing roast lunch! The Yorkshire puddings were very dry, the meat was tough and everything was cold! The cauliflower cheese side was forgotten and came when we were half way through the meal. It was a real shame as we are Hawksmoor fans!

    Service was exceptional, including looking after a coeliac guest who was reassured and presented with an adapted menu to choose from. Food was delicious as ever and we had an amazing time.

    Was heading for a 5 star review… until 90 minutes after sitting down and having just finished our mains we were told we had to leave as they were busy and had others waiting for the table.. so no desert or coffee etc… At £326 for two we should have been allowed time to enjoy sone pudding etc
