Harry’s Covent Garden

Harry’s Covent Garden feels like the sort of place you suggest for a get-together and instantly look clever for knowing about it.

Sitting right on the corner of the iconic piazza, a few strides from the Royal Opera House and the best of the West End, it could hardly be better placed for a pre-theatre supper, a post-show nightcap or a long lunch that accidentally turns into dinner.

Private dining events at Harry’s Covent Garden

Venetian-inspired interiors, a lively buzz and Italian comfort food make the main restaurant an easy sell – but it’s the private rooms that really earn Harry’s a spot on every Covent Garden short‑list.

The Amalfi Room
For something low-key but impeccably turned out, The Amalfi Room is your secret weapon. Seating up to 16 guests, or 30 standing, it’s ideal for boardroom-style lunches that don’t feel stuffy, discreet client entertaining, or the sort of birthday where you actually want to hear your friends talk. Soft furnishings, warm oak and brass accents give it that “smart townhouse dining room” feel, while a polished Italian menu and well-chosen wines keep everyone happily occupied.

The Positano Room
If your guest list runs longer and your ambitions bigger, head downstairs to The Positano Room, a handsome space beneath the main restaurant with more than a touch of theatre about it. With capacity for up to 60 seated or 120 standing, plus its own private bar, this is West End party territory – think product launches, wrap parties, jazz‑scored dinners or wedding celebrations that lean chic rather than cheesy. Warm tones, flattering lighting and a gently glamorous, jazz-lounge mood do wonders for both atmosphere and photos, while seasonal Italian dishes, negronis and late‑night nightcaps keep the evening rolling long after the curtain falls.
