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!

    Excellent services and delicious food. We ordered fish and chips, salt beef hash, chicken schnitzel, apple crumble, and drinks. Every meal we had was wonderful!

    I’m happy with everything that’s going on in this restaurant. From the people to the food served. We had breakfast before leaving for the airport and they were tasty! Do make reservations before going, wait time without reservations can be 45 min to 1 hour long during peak.

    Really great food, was not expecting it so near touristy areas. I had tuna tartare and husband had chicken pot pie so yummy, the salads and sauces were exceptional. The fries were the best I have ever had.

    There was not anything that I disliked about this restaurant. The food and service were both very good. They had a variety of unique menu options without having items that were overly ambitious. It is very much a "small pub" environment with a wide-open seating configuration. The size and seating arrangement made the restaurant very loud, so it was difficult to hold a conversation with the one person I was sitting with. I would recommend it for the food. If it is busy, you should just expect to spend more time eating versus engaging in meaningful dialog unless you want to yell at each other.
