It’s been called the hottest steakhouse in New York (Eater) and ranked number one in the World’s Best Steak Restaurants lists, and now Hawksmoor is opening Thursday, May 25th on College Green in Dublin. We are giving one lucky Irish Times subscriber a chance to win dinner for four with wine, and you’ll also enjoy a cocktail each on arrival.
Hawksmoor has sensitively transformed the historic National Bank, an Italianate building designed by William Barnes in the mid-1840s. Many original features, like the banking halls grand 40-foot hemispherical cast-iron dome set on Corinthian columns and its elaborate plasterwork, have been restored. In addition, the use of reclaimed materials, a Hawksmoor signature, has been incorporated throughout, with reclaimed doors and repurposed antique lighting all featuring. Beautiful parquet floors feature throughout.
Once through the impressive front doors of Hawksmoor, guests will step through the lobby and into the main bar, where they can slip into one of the deep blue leather banquettes and explore the exceptional menu of drinks from sub-zero martinis, called the coldest in New York by Punch, to a homage to the Second Golden Age (the era that resurrected the craft of the cocktail) to the Sacred Six, timeless Hawksmoor classics that are always on the menu.
The restaurant is set underneath the dramatic glass-domed ceiling of the original banking hall, with seating spread out between velvet-backed booths and a central bank of leather banquettes.
With a focus on sustainability, charity and local sourcing, founders Will, and Huw’s obsession with quality and ethics has led Hawksmoor to be ranked amongst the best companies to work for by Best Companies for 12 years in a row, given the highest three-star rating for sustainability by the Sustainable Restaurants Association, achieve carbon neutral status and, most recently, achieve B Corp accreditation – a global kite mark for businesses with the highest ethical standards.
