Holiday season at the iconic landmark

Open on Thanksgiving from 11:45am, with the Ultimate Sharing Roast, which is the biggest thing we cook. Open on New Year’s Eve, and again on New Year’s Day. Holiday parties through November and December, from an intimate gathering to 220 people with the place to themselves.

The room is the Assembly Hall of the United Charities Building, finished in 1893 and shut to the public for the next hundred years. Twenty-six-foot ceilings, stained glass, a National Historic Landmark. For the last few years, a steak restaurant with a very cold martini in it.

The seating plan, the dietaries, the wine, the speech that overruns: ours. You just turn up.

For parties of 14 or fewer, you can book a table right now and get an immediate confirmation. For larger groups, please make an inquiry and our team will be in touch shortly.

Thanksgiving dinner at Hawksmoor New York

Open Thursday, November 26, 11:45am to 8pm.

Either somebody is cooking for fourteen in a kitchen built for one, or good luck finding a place that’s open and can accommodate your group. We’ve got you taken care of.

On the table is the Ultimate Sharing Roast, Thanksgiving is the one Thursday all year it comes out. A board of rib of beef cooked over open fire and carved thick, with crisp beef-dripping potatoes, giant Yorkshire puddings, buttered greens, cauliflower cheese with a bronzed top, bone marrow gravy and horseradish with real bite. It is the British Sunday roast with the volume up. Ours in the UK has twice been voted the best in the country by The Observer, and this is what happened when we stopped being modest about it.

The full à la carte runs all day, too – since we think steak is a perfectly good choice for Thanksgiving. Nobody peels anything, and nobody is scrubbing a roasting tin after the meal, while everyone else is on the sofa.

Thanksgiving Day already locked in? Friendsgiving is the one you get to pick the date for. Come on a Sunday and the roast makes the decision for you. Come any other day and our sharing steaks, carved for the middle of the table with sides nobody is shy about, do the same job from a different direction. If the guest list has quietly outgrown a dining table, with plus-ones, roommates and the whole group chat, our private dining rooms mean nobody has to be left off it. Lord Bronx seats 14 and Ty Whoppity seats 12. The best part is that nobody is washing up afterwards. Although if we are honest, the best part is the eating, and the people you are doing it with.

HOLIDAY PARTIES & PRIVATE DINING in Gramercy

Somewhere between Union Square, Flatiron and Park Avenue South, which means roughly everyone can get here and nobody has an excuse. Behind the door is a room that was closed to the public from 1893 until a few years ago: vaulted ceilings, stained glass, and the kind of proportions that make a work dinner feel like an occasion rather than an obligation. Twelve people around one table, or two hundred and twenty with the building to themselves.

There is no hire fee on any of it. Minimum spends flex by room, date and headcount, so tell us the date, the number and roughly what you have in mind, and we will work backwards from there. One of our events team takes it from the first email, through menus and drinks, to the running order on the night.

Holiday group menus at Hawksmoor New York, Gramercy

Our group menus start where every Hawksmoor menu starts. Buy the best, cook it over fire, try not to get in the way.

Steaks come to the table in cast-iron skillets, sliced thick and properly rested, because a steak that arrives whole on one person’s plate is a meal and a steak carved for the table is an evening. Around them, beef-dripping fries, sides that get fought over and sauces that earn the space they take up. For parties on their feet the format changes and the standard does not, with canapes and sharing plates built to be eaten one-handed while the other hand holds a drink.

That drink should probably be the martini. Ours is served at 10°F, which is cold enough to be a talking point and strong enough to make the introductions easier. After that, wines matched to the menu by our sommeliers, or a cocktail package that runs from an aperitif on arrival to a digestif at the end. If you would rather order at the table as you go, that is no trouble either.

And everyone eats. Vegetarians, vegans and every dietary requirement are planned into the menu, not bolted onto the end of it. Tell us when you book and nobody has to have that conversation at the table.

Gift Cards

Buying for someone who eats out constantly and already owns everything? A Hawksmoor gift card is the rare present that gets used rather than re-gifted. Digital cards are available any time through our online shop.

It works the other way round too. If you are the one being asked what you want this year, this is a straightforward answer to give.

New Year’s Eve & New Year’s Day in Gramercy

We are open on New Year’s Eve, Thursday, December 31. Steak, seafood, the cold end of the cocktail list, and and a room that has rung in 130 New Years, most of them without anybody in it.

We are open on New Year’s Day, Friday, January 1 too. A slow start, something restorative, and a long lunch with nothing attached to it. The kindest thing you can do for yourself on January 1 is let somebody else cook.
