Great Queen Street

Covent Garden’s Great Queen Street serves modern British food with a clear emphasis on meat and game, offering few options for London’s considerable vegetarian population. Dishes include hearty pub classics like steak and Guinness pie, roast partridge, braised pig’s cheek and seasonal specialties like grouse carpaccio. Great Queen Street fully embraces the “gastro” element of its genre, leaning more toward restaurant than a pub. As such, booking is essential for dining, but the cellar bar serves snacks and craft cocktails on a first-come-first-served basis.
