Which Hawksmoor?
Discussion
Hi folks,planning a trip to London in June to see Guns N' Roses for my birthday and then a nice lunch on the Sunday.
Coming down from Scotland and not been to London for years.
Got my heart set on Hawksmoor as I was given the book a few years back.
The problem is, which one is best? There appears to be new branches opening all the time. A central one would be preferred and steak will definitely be what I am having.
Which one do you guys recommend?

Personally, I'd got for Seven Dials. Subterranean, dark, atmospheric and I've had the best food there. Very close to Covent Garden tube and you can walk past Pineapple dance studios and gawp at the girls in tight leggings if you're that way inclined.
A close second is Air Street. On a first floor with huge frosted and coloured art deco windows. A bit less atmospheric but maybe it was due to the time of day we visited.

Shoreditch branch is great. Quite like Air Street too for a more central choice. Whatever you do avoid the Knightsbridge one. Crap room, mediocre food and woeful service. Clear evidence they've expanded too far too quickly.
Air Street and avoid Knightsbridge for me as well. thebraketester said:
In terms of food 7 dials and air street are comparable. I think personally air street has the edge but it really boils down to which environment/atmosphere you prefer
Agreed - another vote for Air St here, but only narrowly. I also recommend Shaky Pete's Ginger Brew as an aperitif.
