Happy Hour at Hawksmoor
Hawksmoor is the New York flagship of the London steakhouse group, set in the restored Assembly Hall of the landmarked United Charities Building in the heart of Gramercy. The kitchen turns out dry-aged, pasture-reared British beef over live charcoal, from porterhouse to a bar cheeseburger, plus a celebrated Sunday Roast.
The room is grand and reliably loud, built for special occasions and long dinners, but the front bar is a destination in its own right. Hawksmoor is famous for its martinis, billed as some of the coldest in the city, and the bar list has picked up national awards.
The Happy Hour
The bar’s happy-hour equivalent is Martini Hour, when featured martinis and cocktails run $12 from 4:30 to 6:30pm. It is a seasonal summer promotion advertised roughly late June through the end of August, so the exact 2026 dates and which days it runs are worth confirming by phone. Full-price oysters and the full cocktail list are available the rest of the day.
The Room
A soaring, wood-and-leather dining room in a landmarked former assembly hall, with a marble-topped front bar known for martinis and a warm, clubby, often noisy buzz at peak hours.
