About this space

For almost 40 years, The Private Dining Rooms at the privately owned Bleeding Heart restaurants in the historic, cobblestoned Bleeding Heart yard have been the city's first choice for client entertaining, business meetings, banquets, weddings, wine tastings, and any event that calls for a celebration.

Bleeding Heart Yard has a fascinating history. In 1626, it was the scene of the gruesome murder of the 17th-century society heiress, the beautiful but wayward Lady Elizabeth Hatton, by a spurned lover, alleged to be a noted European ambassador.

Her body was found at dawn, torn limb to limb, her heart still pumping blood onto the cobblestones. From then on, it was known as Bleeding Heart Yard.

The Yard is perfectly situated midway between the City and the West End; it is but a 3-minute stroll from Farringdon Station, from where it is a single stop to Kings Cross St Pancras and the Eurostar terminal and via the majestic new Elizabeth line, a single stop from Liverpool Street Station, and onward to Canary Wharf. It is also just a 5-minute walk from Chancery Lane Station.

We can host events for 12 to 120 people six days a week, and we are justly proud of our experienced and personable Private Events Team, who will help you choose which of our Rooms will provide the right setting for your event, whether it is a lunch or a dinner party.

THE No.1 DINING ROOM
The Bleeding Heart Dining Room at 1 Bleeding Heart is the largest of our Private Rooms within the Yard, seating up to 50 people for dinner and 70 for a standing reception and brings together Bleeding Heart Restaurant and Wine Bar's long history of both oenophilia and bibliophilia.

Its handsome Library contains London's most extensive private collection of First Edition Books by local author Charles Dickens, in whose honour our very first House Red, Dickens Claret, was named.

Made for us in Bordeaux at Chateau Magnol by Barton and Guestier, it was on our first wine list in 1983 at a very accessible 95 pence a glass.
