Nestled in the heart of old Westminster, in between Westminster Abbey and St James’s Park, is the Old Queen Street Cafe — the home of good food and good conversation.

Situated down a quiet side street, this British Brasserie looks forward to welcoming you for breakfast or lunch, coffee or cocktail, or a delicious dinner. Chef Elliot Spurdle (ex Wolseley, Delaunay) has developed a menu based on the finest seasonal ingredients from around Britain, at affordable prices.

Taking inspiration from traditional London cafes, but with the highest standard of food and comfort, OQS emerged from the heritage of the area. With political magazine UnHerd upstairs, and the Palace of Westminster just over the road, heritage is everywhere — look out for Winston Churchill’s floorboards from the Old War Office, rows of books old and new, and a unique collection of Martin Parr photographs of English life.

This beautiful heritage building has some amazing versatile spaces to rent on the upper floors. With capacity for 40 seated and up to 100 standing, the venue spaces are perfect for intimate sit-down dinners, business events with panel setups or weddings, birthday and work parties. Plus, the experienced OQS team can help you to create and deliver the perfect event for you and your guests.

We have Christmas packages available - please enquire with our Events Team!

What a charming venue hidden away in Westminster. Really fresh well cooked food and stylish venue - a brasserie feel. Perfect after an event in unherd upstairs (private club). Lots of politicians go as near to the House of Commons. Delightful and reasonable prices.

Was walking from Buckingham Palace to Westminster Abbey arounf the lunch period and found this quaint restaurant nearby. When I walked in, all the tables were full but as a solo traveller, they found space at the bar. I ordered the chicken pot pie and a lemon drink and found the quality of the dish to be exquisite. The waitstaff were knowledgeable enough to inform me that due to the nature of the dish, there would be a 20 minute wait, which is fair, and exactly 20 minutes after ordering, out came and incredible pie with amazing side salad. Huge props to the chef, wait staff and front of house for accomodating me as a walk-in patron and high quality of food and drinks on offer!

We ate a late brunch here and it was fantastic. I had the salt beef Benedict and an espresso martini; both were divine! My wife had their take on a full English and also loved it! Would definitely recommend and try again!

The food was good, the coffee was amazing, the waitress were attentive and helped me charged my phone. So nice of them. Btw, this is the first meal I had without looking at my phone due to it was charging at front desk, such a wired feeling but also realized that we really need to move away from the phone and enjoy what is at front of us - a great meal.
