Set within the historic arches of Devonshire Square, just a short stroll from Liverpool Street, Enoteca da Luca is the kind of venue that feels worlds away from the city rush - while still being right at the heart of it. Tucked between sleek office blocks and cobbled courtyards, it’s a hidden spot that transforms effortlessly from daytime elegance to evening energy, making it an inspired choice for private hire and lively parties.
Whether you’re planning a company celebration, birthday bash, festive gathering or a full-on drinks and dancing kind of night, Enoteca da Luca offers a flexible and atmospheric setting that delivers on all fronts. The main restaurant, with its vaulted ceilings, exposed brick, candlelight and stacked wine shelves, feels both intimate and buzzing, while the covered courtyard just outside offers extra space to spill out and soak up the scene - whatever the weather.
It’s a space that doesn’t need much dressing up, but comes alive when the music’s on and the Prosecco’s flowing. With space for larger groups and a layout that encourages mingling and movement, it’s tailor-made for standing receptions, long tables of shared food, or dancing late into the night. The team here are well-versed in hosting private events and will help you shape the vibe you’re after - whether that’s relaxed aperitivo and nibbles or a full takeover with a DJ and flowing cocktails.
The wine list is, unsurprisingly, a highlight - extensive, Italian-led, and filled with bottles you won’t find just anywhere. And while the food isn’t the main event here, it more than holds its own. Expect generous antipasti boards, crowd-pleasing pizzas, and elegant dishes designed to pair with good wine and great company.
In a part of town that can feel overly polished or a little too buttoned-up, Enoteca da Luca offers something more characterful - a venue with soul, where the music’s a little louder, the lights a little lower, and the night a little longer than you planned.
