About Venue
Hawksmoor Wood Wharf is housed in an eco-friendly floating pavilion in a new riverside neighbourhood in Canary Wharf. Gently rising and falling with the tide, the main restaurant at dock-level is joined by a 120-seat waterside bar. Hawksmoor Bar includes a terrace with views across the water, which is suitable for dining and events.
The menu revolves around the best British produce the country has to offer with grass-fed dry-aged ethically reared beef, sustainable seafood and produce.
Hawksmoor Bar at Wood Wharf is the largest venue we have. It comes with its own heated waterside terrace, too. But what’s unique is that it offers the same à la carte dining experience as the restaurant upstairs – just in a more casual environment.
A lively atmosphere and quality drinks are a given, though: our wine and cocktail menus speak to everyone from post-work sippers to a weekend crowd looking for a proper night out.
The bar hits a high note with events. There’s space for up to 250/340 (winter/summer) people for exclusive-use drinks receptions and networking events. Or our semi-private spaces are great for after work gatherings, networking, all day delegate events, parties and special celebrations, with space for 160 people.
For seated group-dining experiences it’s 90 guests max for an exclusive hire or 60 for a semi private area.
For corporate events, we can provide AV solutions.
Hawksmoor Bar at Wood Wharf is our love note to event organisers. It’s the only venue in the Hawksmoor stable to offer drinks receptions, canapé soirées, networking events and summer parties – in essence, any standing do. For events of up to 250 (winter) 330 (summer) people and 90 guests seated, Hawksmoor Bar Wood Wharf can be hired out on an exclusive hire basis for a standing party. The only Hawksmoor with two floor, Wood Wharf has the spaces, packages and staff to make your event a success.
Our whole Waterview section with terrace hosts standing events for up to 160 people year round. It’s heated, with comfortable seating, its own sound system and dramatic views of Canary Wharf.
The venue can host live bands or DJs and we our designated event manager will assist you with your event from day one until the end.

Rib eye cooked to perfection - medium rare spot on. Sirloin was also delicious. Starters were great too: Bone Marrow & Caesar salad. Peanut butter shortbread dessert was the icing on the cake. Yummy!

I’ve been to Hawksmoor in Dublin and London a couple of times and always love the food and customer service. Our visit to Hawksmoor Wood Wharf yesterday was no different. The bone marrow with onion was a fantastic starter, and the steaks were good even without the sauces. The creamed spinach and garlic mushrooms were great sides. We enjoyed the meal with red wine and finished it with ice cream and sorbet. Good food, great customer service, and reasonable prices.

25-10-2025 1630 Visited as a pre-show dinner. The setting, atmosphere was lively but relaxed, and service was impeccable. Always someone there to top up your wine/water and a good time between courses. Both wife and I had the 'Potted Beef and Bacon' where the yorkshires were clearly made in-house; amazing! - although it took a few moments to best work out how to eat it. Fillet for main, perfectly rare as requested. Well rested and seasoned. The ONLY thing I could criticise was the chips were well over salted however, after a couple of glasses of wine, it wasn't worth asking for replacement. We also had desserts and cocktails... a real feast and will definitely be retuning.

Came here for my birthday with my husband. We tried Sunday roast and it did not disappoint. For starters, we had the bone marrow and it was good especially with cracked salt on sourdough bread. We had the rump roast beef (Sunday roast), I ordered mine pink and my husband well done. Mine was so tender, melts in your mouth experience. It had a nice portion of fat which I really liked. They also granted our request for extra gravy. Delicious food. The staff are all very friendly and accommodating. The atmosphere great. Location impeccable. Their toilet facilities well maintained, clean which is really important. They gave me a complimentary sorbet with candle as it was my birthday, really thoughtful touch. Thank you Hawksmoor for the amazing experience.

We booked via Google (The Fork) for two. Jess, the host, was polite and professional, seating us as requested. Our waiter explained the menu well, though service slowed once he got busy and another team member took our order professionally. Food was excellent: fries to start, ribeye steaks with Caesar salad, all perfectly cooked. Peppercorn sauce was very good, though the Béarnaise tasted more like cold herb mayonnaise. Dessert service was disappointing—our waiter was hard to find, we waited 10–15 minutes, and eventually skipped it. Overall, great food and atmosphere, but service needs consistency.
