/ About
HIDE occupies a handsome stone-faced building at 85 Piccadilly, its floor-to-ceiling glazing framing uninterrupted views across Green Park. The project is a partnership between Ollie Dabbous and Hedonism Wines, and when it opened in 2018 it collected a Michelin star within six months. The building runs across three distinct levels: Ground, a brasserie-style all-day dining room wrapped in pale oak and botanical marquetry panels; Above, the formal Michelin-starred restaurant on the first floor; and Below, a subterranean cocktail bar with three intimate private vaults.
The central staircase is the building's signature object — a spiralling walnut helix designed by Atmos Studio that connects all three floors and doubles as the venue's most photographed interior. Private dining occupies both the Below level, where three small vaulted rooms sit alongside the bar, and the mezzanine, where two combinable rooms with their own private entrance, washroom, and botanical plaster-cast wall commissions can seat up to 24. The Piccadilly View, the restaurant's prime semi-private dining area, takes the full-length windows facing Green Park and seats groups of up to 40.
For private events, the Bar Below is available for exclusive hire up to 50 standing, operating until midnight Monday through Saturday. The mezzanine rooms carry their own private entrance from the street, allowing guests to arrive and depart without passing through the main restaurant — an arrangement that suits confidential gatherings or occasions where complete discretion matters.

The Bar Below
Exclusive HireHIDE's basement cocktail bar, curated around Hedonism Wines' collection of rare and classic spirits alongside an award-winning seasonal cocktail programme by Oskar Kinberg. Open Monday to Saturday until midnight, the full space is available for exclusive standing hire up to 50 guests. Three further private dining rooms open directly off the bar.
The Hide & Seek Room
PrivateOn the mezzanine level, two adjacent private rooms can be booked separately or opened into a single space seating 24. Each side carries a commissioned plaster-cast botanical wall installation by Rachel Dein, floor-to-ceiling glass bringing natural light in from Piccadilly, and a private washroom — so the entire event can be contained without guests passing through the main restaurant. A removable wall and a dedicated private entrance from the street give the suite genuine versatility for birthdays, corporate dinners, and anything in between.
The Piccadilly View
Semi PrivateHIDE's premium semi-private area occupies the restaurant's most coveted window position, with continuous views across Piccadilly to Green Park and natural light throughout the day. Available for seated groups of up to 40 across a variety of configurations, with a maximum of 28 on a single table. Suitable for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.
The Hide Room
PrivateThe most secluded of the mezzanine rooms, with soundproof glass, oak-panelled walls, a private bathroom, and direct street access. Groups of up to 12 can dine here in total discretion, with no need to enter the main restaurant at any point.
The Seek Room
PrivateAdjacent to The Hide Room and combinable with it, The Seek Room is distinguished by a floor-to-ceiling glass wall that floods the interior with Mayfair street light. A single table seats up to 12, and the natural light makes it one of the more unusual private dining rooms of its size in central London.
The Reading Room
PrivateA subterranean dining room for up to eight guests, built around a commissioned art installation by Su Blackwell in which vintage cookery books and foraging manuals appear to take flight from the shelves and arc across the ceiling. The horseshoe banquette and arched tunnel setting give the room a sense of immersive theatre.
The Shadow Room
PrivateOne of three private vaults in the Bar Below, The Shadow Room seats up to eight beneath a textured arched ceiling lit by bespoke filament bulbs. Classical sculptural fragments and curated objects line the walls, and a plush wraparound banquette encircles a handcrafted oak table. The design draws on hidden architectural details uncovered during the building's restoration.
The Nest
Semi PrivateA discreet table for up to six at the mezzanine's edge, enclosed on one side for privacy yet open on the other to look out over both the restaurant below and Green Park beyond. The Nest suits romantic dinners, small celebrations, or confidential meetings where full isolation is not required.
The Broken Room
PrivateThe most intimate of the Below vaults, seating four guests at a private table. The room takes its identity from the Japanese philosophy of kintsugi — the golden repair of broken ceramics — with the interiors treating fractures and repairs as the most interesting thing about any object. Completely private, with access to the full restaurant menu.
