The Meat & Wine Co Mayfair is a steakhouse at 17C Curzon Street in London that takes bookings for private dinners, corporate lunches, cocktail receptions and seasonal functions. The venue states a total capacity of 122 guests, with one private dining room and zoned dining areas that seat groups of 4 to 12. It suits organisers planning a client dinner or a team celebration in central London rather than a full-day seminar.
Seminars and company events
The restaurant presents itself as a place for work functions and corporate lunches. It offers a three-course lunch menu aimed at guests who want to leave the desk for a couple of hours, and set dinner menus for sit-down functions. For more casual gatherings, it also offers cocktail formats for standing events. The kitchen and the team adjust the space, the food and the drinks to the brief, within what the venue can do.
There is no conference room, projection equipment or meeting package on the official pages, so this is a venue for hospitality and celebration, not for working sessions. Companies often pair it with a day held elsewhere and use the restaurant for the evening.
Weddings and receptions
The official site does not sell weddings. The enquiry form lists family events, birthdays, 21st and 30th birthdays, engagement or reception events and end-of-financial-year parties among the event types it handles.
Rooms and capacities
The restaurant has one private dining room and several zoned areas that give groups privacy inside the main space. Dining areas seat groups of 4 to 12 guests. Across the whole restaurant, the stated capacity is 122. The enquiry form asks whether a private room is required, and offers the answers yes, no or flexible. A la carte dining is offered for bookings of nine people or fewer. Function slots listed on the form run from 6.00 pm to 8.00 pm, or from 8.45 pm until close.
Catering
Catering is in-house. Sit-down functions choose from three set menus, and lunch bookings can use a three-course lunch menu. Beverage packages run for three hours, in a standard or a premium version, or the group can choose no package. The cuisine blends African heritage with modern technique and Australian roots. Steaks come from graziers in the USA, Europe and Australia and are char-grilled, with dry-aged cuts and skewers on the menu. The wine list includes South African bottles, mainly from Stellenbosch and the Western Cape, alongside wines from other regions. A group information pack is available on request. The restaurant also runs dedicated Christmas and New Year's Eve offers.
History and setting
The Meat & Wine Co began in Australia and opened its London restaurant in Mayfair. The interior carries an Afro-centric design and a warm, lively atmosphere, which gives private dinners more character than a standard hotel function room.
Getting there
The restaurant is on Curzon Street, within walking distance of Green Park and Hyde Park Corner stations. Guests arriving by Tube or on foot from the West End can reach it easily.
