About

Galvin Bistro & Bar is a casual restaurant and bar in Spitalfields, reflective of the Galvin Brothers love of French bistros and British gastropubs. The restaurant is available for exclusive private hire, and also boasts a beautiful light-filled conservatory for private dinners.

Galvin Bistro & Bar is located just on the edge of Spitalfields Market, making it extremely easy to get to from Shoreditch or The City. The restaurant is very experienced when it comes to hosting private and corporate events as a result, and the team can host anything from casual drinks receptions with canapes to full sit-down meals and celebration dinners.

The restaurant has a variety of areas available for hire. We love the gorgeous Conservatory at the rear of the Bistro & Bar, where glass windows and roof ensure the space is bathed in natural light throughout the day. A set of double doors open out into a private garden - a unique outdoor space, which is a rarity in the City! In the winter months, part of the garden can be covered and heated, allowing you and your guests an al fresco area to break out into despite the weather. The Conservatory can be arranged in a variety of ways and accommodates up to 20 guests seated or 30 guests standing. It can also be combined with the garden for larger groups.

Alternatively, the restaurant is available for exclusive private hire, accommodating up to 60 guests seated and 150 guests standing across all areas.

Galvin Bistro & Bar offers a variety of set menus for large groups, including dishes such as roast Cornish cod with salsify and aioli, Dorset crab with toasted sourdough and pea shoots, and rhubarb crumble with custard.

"Wonderful evening"JANUARY, 2024

We had reservations with nine people. Table was ready when we arrived. Were warmly welcomed. Found beautiful things in the food and wine list. Had a really good evening. The food is at a great level. If you want more, you can go to the star restaurant next door. The French Fries with Châteaubriand were wonderful. The butter mixtures are homemade. All in all a wonderful evening.
