Hawksmoor prepares to open new branch

Steak restaurant chain Hawksmoor will open its biggest branch to date on November 1st near to Picadilly Circus in London.

Hawksmoor said that its Air Street branch would be "an entirely new challenge", with equal billing given to seafood as to steaks thanks to a partnership with chef Mitch Tonks of The Seahorse restaurant in Dartmouth.

The Air Street branch will seat 235 in the restaurant and a further 50 in the bar. The group will be offering 50% off food for a short period of time at the new branch before the official opening.
