The private dining room at Hawksmoor Spitalfields is named in honour of local legend Vesta Tilley, a trailblazing gender-bending music hall star who played to packed houses across the road at the once-was Royal Cambridge. The highest paid star of the day she mimicked and mocked men from all walks of life. Beloved by men and women, she broke down barriers of gender and class, achieving stardom and social change every time she took to the floor.
A mere 2 minutes’ walk from Shoreditch High Street and 10 minutes’ walk from Liverpool Street, Old Street and Aldgate stations, the Vesta Tilley Room is ideal for private hire for groups of up to 45. The space is perfect for team lunches, private dinners and other celebrations.
We have designed special sharing menus which offer a range of classic Hawksmoor dishes and our dictionary-thick steaks. There are a selection of menus to choose from, all served family-style - with the steaks cooked to order, sliced and served in cast-iron skillets with our legendary sides and sauces. Large sharing puddings complete the feast.
All menus can be accompanied by matched wines selected by our expert team. We can also create a bespoke cocktail menu for your event. We can cater for vegetarians or any other dietary requirements that you or your guests may have
