Wonderful greeting and service throughout, lovely team, all happy to help. We went for a beautiful bottle of Raul Perez Mencia, reasonably priced at £47, scallops, bone marrow, x2 Sunday roasts and a sticky toffee pudding with the sherry pairing. All in £160, would come weekly if my bank balance would allow but once in a while for a treat, absolutely worth it! Thank you Hawksmoor team.

Out of the ordinary menu. Items you could not cook at home. Helping size almost, but not quite, too large. Very friendly and helpful staff

Great tasting food, restaurant room a bit hot and stuffy but was in the middle of summer! Service a tad slow. Portions on the smaller size.
