None the Wiser

private dining for 18 guests

Best for business dinners, birthday celebrations and intimate wedding feasts around one long table.

Named after a Dexter cow born in 1892, our 18-seater private dining room, NONE THE WISER, is a tribute to native breed cattle. The walls are adorned with images from over the years of Dexter and Kerry cows, heifers, bulls and steers. We searched through original Herd Books from the 1880s and 1890s to create a reimagined Dublin Agricultural Society Show winners board. 

Croom-A-Boo

private dining for 14 guests

Best for client dinners, family celebrations and smaller private gatherings.

Named after a Kerry Bull that roamed the fields of Maynooth in County Kildare at the end of the nineteenth century. ‘Croom (or Crom) a boo’ is the ancient battle cry of the clan Fitzgerald that’s been adopted by sports fans across the country to rally their team. 

This private dining room seats 14 people and features a large map of Dublin from 1897, the same year that work started on the beautiful National Bank building we‘re lucky enough to call home, along with a series of cheques issued by the bank in 1924. There’s also a champion cattle board inspired by the Dublin Spring Show which showcases more well-named Irish cattle from times past.

Full Venue Hire

exclusive hire for up to 150 guests

Best for corporate events, black-tie dinners, awards evenings and major celebrations.

For larger celebrations and events that call for something truly special, Hawksmoor Dublin is available for exclusive hire. Set inside the landmark former National Bank building on College Green, it is an impressive setting for corporate dinners, black-tie events, awards evenings and landmark celebrations.

Host 100-150 guests for a seated dinner, with space in the bar for up to 100 guests to gather for cocktails and pre-dinner drinks before taking their seats. From the first arrival to the final toast, our team will help shape an event that feels grand, seamless and entirely your own.
