Marquis of Westminster in City of London, Westminster

Great team as always, very much looked after with smiles and a welcoming atmosphere. Mark, Yula, Courtney, Aaron, George, Ally, Mitch and Meave took over tonight. Thank you for making my own and my friends Christmas drinks a night to remember.

0 stars if I could. Noise, smelly and rude bar staff. Avoid.

Lovely atmosphere. Small restaurant above the bar food was lovely and so we're the staff.

Beautiful, cozy restaurant, you immediately feel at home. The ambience and food were great! Absolute recommendation! 🤝🏼

We had a great evening at the marquise of Westminster. The service was attentive and polite. The food was excellent, the ripeye steak was slightly overcooked but did not affect the quality of the dish. The goat cheese lasagne was spot on. It was a great dinner for our last evening in London

First time here for a work's Xmas lunch. We are upstairs and the food, decor, service and atmosphere were all very good

Excellent food with exceptional service. Highly recommend their Sunday Roast!

Nice pub, good food and well kept cellar.

We had an amazing Christmas dinner there with my team. The service we received from Maeve was excellent, thank you!! The pub's team let us decorate the table and were super nice & helpful throughout. Food was great and at a reasonable price. Thank you for a great evening!

I am starting with a one-star rating, as the system requires a rating to submit a review. Unfortunately, my experience was disappointing from the outset. The staff member we interacted with was notably rude, and it was apparent that this behavior was directed specifically at our group of five, which was diverse in nationality. It was particularly striking that other patrons at nearby tables did not receive the same treatment. We were unable to understand the reason for her unprofessional demeanor, but it was clear that it contributed to us feeling unwelcome. As a result, we chose to cancel our order and leave. This experience was highly discouraging and would encourage anyone not to patronise them ever.

Great food! Had a ribeye steak and it was delicious. Staff was accommodating and took us in even without reservation. Reasonably priced. Located a few minutes walk from Victoria train station. A great dining experience.

Quaint local tavern offer tavern fare. I had the Reuben bagel sandwich, very good with a touch of spicy mustard. While the sandwich was not stuffed pile high with meat like the states, it definitely had great flavor. Local craft beer options on the menu.

Very friendly waitress and excellent fish and chips

Not bad. Waiter kept forgetting parts of our order.

On both occasions (the photos are from the two different days) that we went, Mitch attended to us. Despite our terrible English, the boy always helped and empathized. The food is 10, the price is very good!!! The truth is that they met expectations!!!

Loved it. The Barkeeper was awesome and so friendly!

Having just arrived in London, 1st restaurant, a delight! Starter, main course, dessert, and really well garnished, everything was perfect! Thank you for this good time. Calm atmosphere, a little background music.

Cozy pub, very nice service and restaurant in the upper area.

It was close to my accommodation on my first day in London. I went to have a beer. It felt like 99% of the people were local. The beer is delicious and the atmosphere is fresh. You are kind

This became our local hangout while were in London and staying near by. Sunday roast dinner was delicious! The staff were fabulous! So friendly, had some lovely chats with everyone. Yula was special! So enjoyed sitting outside and having a few drinks. Highly recommend this place!

My partner and I visited Marquis the last time we were in London (6 years ago?) ever since i've been scouring google maps trying to remember what this place was called.. needless to say this morning while preparing for a second visit to London I'm happy to say I found it! Easily the best pub food i've ever had - i'm excited to visit again.

Excellent burgers and service. Decent Guinness. A little on the pricy side.

Popped in last Wednesday evening as staying at nearby hotel. I asked if they had any nuts or crisps and was met with a very blunt "no" by the barman. Generally rather rude despite me being polite and smartly dressed. I had a pint of London Pride but this was not at all well kept and I didn't finish it. Found the Cask pub nearby much friendlier and far better beer

This was our second visit to this amazing pub. Ross and Yula in the upstairs dining room took incredible care of us. The food was terrific. We had the bangers and mash and the chicken and leek pie and both were perfect. Special shout out to Yula who made the best Old Fashions ever. Don’t miss the sticky toffee pudding either…it was very, very good. Thank you for making our holiday feel like we were spending it with family.

Wow! I can recommend the lasagna to everyone! 10/10 and the brownie was super delicious! The ambience and service was excellent. Big praise to the entire team!

Very cozy restaurant on the first floor and pub on the ground floor. The waitresses were all friendly and committed. Nothing was missing. Small but fine selection. The food was delicious and the dessert also tasted excellent. Worth a recommendation.

The fish and chips was lovely, haddock was buttery and delightful! Wife had the chicken and leek pie which was also to die for. Excellent pub fare and excellent service!

Friendly staff and a good selection of drinks

It's more like a senior place, very quite, very chill. Didn't tried the food and the beer was without any gas, as still as water. After trying the first beer didn't want to try anything else and left.

Comfortable old English pub with interesting wooden spiral staircase up to dining room. Attentive and polite staff. Great food nicely presented. Feels up market with prices slightly elevated from the norm but worth it for the overall experience. Recommended.

Coming from the U.S. we decided to try some food here. Just a short walk from our hotel. The chicken and leek pie was absolutely delicious along with the open ravioli dish. The espresso martinis were fantastic and to add the service was top notch. Our waiter was super nice. Enough so, that we returned the next night for a few drinks. We will be back!

We visited for Sunday roast, 4 adults and a 9 month old baby. The food was excellent, nicest roast beef we’ve had in a long time. The portions were generous, and the staff were friendly and helpful, especially with the baby. We would definitely recommend.

Authentic, salty pub. And amazing fish n chips, seriously bangin

🚇 Victoria 🍺 £7.45 Hawkstone The Marquis of Westminster is located on the corner of Warwick Way and busy Belgrave Road in Pimlico. The nearest Tube is Victoria, it’s a five minute walk to get here. This pub was established in 1839 and historically was tied to the nearby Watney’s Brewery. There are still three Watney’s lanterns adorning the exterior today. The pub is named after The Marquis of Westminster who was ironically teetotal, a supporter of the temperance movement, and instrumental in closing 40 beer houses in his constituency of Mayfair. This Gastropub is set out over three floors. The main bar is on the ground floor, just off the main bar is a spiral staircase which leads up to an elegant dining room and down to the Cellar Bar. The main bar has a bare boarded floor, some mixed height furniture and an “L” shaped servery which follows the line of the bar. The overall decor has a rustic traditional feel. The beer offering is a selection of mainstream stalwarts which included three cask ales. I noticed they had @hawkstone lager available, so I opted for a pint of that. My pint was great, I really enjoyed it but cost a whopping £7.45!!. The food menu is elevated pub classics, Fish & Chips costs £18.50, roasts are available on a Sunday. I arrived around 5pm on a chilly Friday afternoon in March. The pub was busy and had a nice buzz about it. The punters were a mix of post work pinters plus a few tourists taking time out. The service was on point, the lady who served me was welcoming and courteous. Although this is a Gastro, this pub has proper pub credentials. The main bar area is set up well for those who are here for the beer. The surroundings are pleasant, the beer selection was decent but pricey and the service was on point. The @marquiswestminsterpimlico is worth a look if you’re in the area. ℹ️ Info correct on visiting 08.03.24

Visited here for a Sunday roast with friends. We ordered the pork but they arrived with beef, as these were the only roasts left, but we weren’t told about the change. Food took almost an hour to arrive and when it did it was stone cold. They clearly had a busy day and were understaffed as the waiting staff seem flustered. The pub interior was very nice but seemed to lack ambience, maybe because it was a Sunday evening so was quieter. Would have been nice to have some background music so it wasn’t as silent.

Nice enough. Nothing particularly special, but it was clean, had space and cold draught. Just what was needed.

I took my Kiwi family in for a proper Sunday Roast and this meal exceeded our expectations. Both the pork belly and beef rump were cooked beautifully. The sides were great, and the sticky toffee pudding a standout. Or hostess Yula was fantastic, really attentive and friendly. I'd definitely be back.

Some girl ‘in charge’ has had a go at the young barman, in front of customers, for being a bit generous with pouring a glass of Prosecco. Really?

We had a wonderful time at the Marquis of Westminster. The cuisine is incredible. Mark's advice, kindness and welcome overwhelmed us. An excellent address to remember! We will come back with pleasure

I had the best fish and chips in all of London

Really very very good food. Very clean place and very fast service. Friendly staff. Recommended... Strategic place to eat before or after the tour of the Harry Potter studios

Check your charges - Went to try my new local - overcharged for 2 pints of Morreti - £21.80 rather than £14.10 - I tapped card before realising - raised straight away - spoke to manager who couldn't find the transaction on their system and therefore wouldn't do anything - won't be returning.

Really delicious food with incredible sweet staff. Beautifully decorated!

very nice pub, with good burgers and friendly service.

Real local style pub. Special offer of pie and a pint, great value

This is the first time I've seen a place in the UK where the pub and restaurant are separated into the first and second floors, and maybe that's why the food is really delicious. If you come, be sure to order the pie. It's one of the top 3 pies I've eaten while living in the UK. And even if you like sweet things, I recommend sharing the Stirky Toffee Pudding between two people and ordering another dessert. It's very sweet even for people who like sweet things. The waiter is friendly and good at recommending beers. The atmosphere is nice and if you are staying nearby or passing by, be sure to stop by.

Good establishment for meeting up with colleagues or family.

The Irish beef short rib Guinness pie was the best meal I’ve had while traveling for 2.5 months!! Delicious pie with amazing garlic greens!

It is okay location but is the food not have any flavour. I think frozen mostly so best will avoid next time I visit london.

Absolutely amazing Sunday roast as well as dessert! Great service and beautiful interior

Excellent food and service. We enjoyed a short rib pie and a fish entree. Casual place with local patrons as well as visitors.

.It was the worst fish and chips I have ever eaten! Fish - without spices, not even salted (lemon does not solve this problem), probably fried in a fryer and at too high an oil temperature - the coating was a hard, greasy "armor" and the fish was falling off! French fries without malt vinegar. And everything - dripping with fat! Tartar sauce - it's some poor version from a jar from the store, green sauce - bland, tasteless. Actually, I should describe this dish in detail, as above on FB, TripAdvisor and other reviews. Because if someone tries Fish & Chips at your place for the first time, they will probably never order it anywhere else. Instead of promoting this dish, you are "killing" it. Which is a pity - because when prepared well, it tastes great!

Perfect neighborhood spot and a local hangout without the summer tourist madness. Delectable menu and friendly service. Thanks, Paul!

It's fine as a quick stop for a drink. Very boring and mediocre

I passed by on my way back from the museum and used it alone for lunch. It's a cozy pub that you often see in the city, but the food and wine were better than I expected. The Sausage & Mash is slightly sweet, the sausage is perfectly grilled, and the melty mash potatoes go well with the strong-bodied red wine! It was a very good lunch.

Fish and chips were spot on, kind server

We stopped into The Marquis after arriving in London, so were off peak dinner time but that created a really stellar experience for us. The bartender had fun with us, crafting some tasty cocktails and generally chatting about the area. Additionally, I split the fish & chips with another member of our party and it was delicious (and huge - recommend sharing). Overall a friendly and personal experience with both good drinks and tasty food!

One member of staff, I believe their manager was extremely rude and unwelcoming from the second we got there. Made multiple members of our party feel very uncomfortable. Ruined our experience. Won’t be going back.

Visited the pub yesterday with the below party from previous review who are being accused of being “verbally abusive”. This is completely incorrect. It is clear from your response that the person you spoke to has been approached and is being defensive and twisted the events of yesterday. From the moment we walked in this particular staff member was rude and extremely unhelpful (not sure if this was stress from how busy the pub was?). We emailed a few days in advance to ask for our 3 table bookings to be sat near each other and when we arrived they were on different floors- she immediately said there was nothing she could do and to deal with it, leaving us to try and come up with a solution ourselves. After this, numerous members of our party kept asking why she ‘was singling me out’ which as a manager is completely unacceptable and I left the pub feeling very upset. When speaking to her at the end to calmly go through my concerns of our evening she even said she was going to come and apologise as she realised she was rude to us throughout our time there. So the news that we were verbally abusive is ridiculous and simply untrue. Contrary to what you said about previous reviews praising staff, I’ve read more than half a dozen of your lowest reviews which have highlighted the exact same issues with rude staff at your pub.

Had a great evening Ally and Paul looked after a big group really well

Really nice atmosphere & great food.

The sunday roast was everything we dreamt of and more. Perfect! The sticky toffee pudding was to die for. Excellent all the way!

Cosy central London pub with all the feelings of a proper local!! Good outside seating and heaters. Very friendly staff and extremely delicious food - in particular the fried pickles and veggie burger. Mark was very helpful when I visited 🙏

Slight confusion when we arrived as no details of our booking and the upstairs restaurant was closed. We were a party of 9 but were seated quickly in the bar area. The lunch menu had lots of variety and the food was lovely. Thank you to Joseph to providing excellent service even though he was the only front of house member of staff working. Would definitely recommend.

Everything was perfect from food to the service to the desserts to the tiniest details at this place! Very recommended if you're in London on a Sunday looking for a place to enjoy lunch/dinner!

First time I visit this place and definitely won’t be the last. It was delicious, service was very friendly and all in all it was a great experience. Totally recommended!

Great English pub! I highly recommend the Irish beef short rib Guinness pie! Truly exceptional! Cozy and wonderful atmosphere and service! The girl also let me taste a couple of beers before ordering a really good local one, light and refreshing! I'll be back

We stopped for a glass of wine at this pub . It was so expensive £24.40 for two 125ml glasses of wine . I would never go in here again

Totally recommendable place, very good food located in a good area

After training in from Canterbury we popped into the M of W and had an absolutely divine lunch. Perhaps the best burger we’ve ever tasted outside of the states. Super tasty served up by a wonderful gentleman named Joseph.

The place is very very nice and the food is great !! Perfect for a warm summer evening !!

This could have been a great experience. Had an lovely pint of Hawkstone and the guy playing guitar had an lovely voice. Unfortunately we ordered food with the inexperienced barman - he didn't understand how the dumb waiter worked so our food was going up and down like Katie Price's knickers. It ended up being lukewarm and had a congealed layer on it. Apparently they also have a time limit on when you can review the pub after a visit

We were looking for our last pub experience before returning home to the US. We got what we were looking for, and when we ordered two half pints, the bar staff was nice enough to recommend we get one pint and split it and even poured in into two glasses for us. But, one pint, two burgers (which were very good and the frites plentiful and crisp) and one dessert with a service charge cost 57 pounds. We thought that was high.

Nice pub in the affluent Pimlico neighbourhood. Good burgers. Obviously prices are decidedly higher than more sincere pubs in popular areas of London or the English provinces.

I just had a few beers there. Friendly atmosphere. On the other hand, a little more tolerance would be welcome for those who do not speak English regularly....

We had a pleasant lunch but at typically London usurious prices. Fish and chips were tasty. Wait staff were nice but the online ordering was an annoyance.

Perfect spot for our first Sunday dinner in London.

Food was very nice, but often too salty.

Great place for Sunday lunch. Food was excellent. Good selection of beers. Nice atmosphere. Definitely book a table

I can't even begin to describe how lovely this pub is as you head upstairs to the dining room. The wait staff were friendly and helpful in choosing the right dish that you're craving. We came for the London pub experience and left as a satisfied and well-fed guest. We had the fish and chips, which were beyond delicious, the short-rib meat pie and the crispy bacon cheeseburger with frittes. We all raved about each dish and shared a few nibbles with each other, but not too much sharing because of the deliciousness of each. Then we topped the meal off with the toffee sticky pudding (which is a must).

Initially I was happy to see Timothy Taylor being served - usually this would mean a good review. But the pub had a really bad aroma. Think damp and nappies. Grim. No loo roll in either the ladies or gents either- so I guess short of staff. We didn’t stay for food.

We found this little pub just up the street from our hotel. We didn't quite know what we wanted that night so we went here. They have a dining room upstairs open in the evening. I saw they had a ribeye steak so I got the and my wife had the meat pie, which I tried. The meat pie was very good, its like a stewed roast in a bread bowl only not the same. My rideye was excellent, as good as any I've had in the states. Service was also good without us having to ask or wait around for anything.

The restaurant upstairs offers a super nice atmosphere. The staff was very friendly and the Sunday Roast was super good and plenty.

Great pub, seems to be a good mix of locals and tourists. Food is really great, better than you'd expect.

Came with friends to introduce our visiting friend to English food. And we managed to beat the perceptions of bad English food and drink! Had a good time. Nothing stood out particularly, but good British food and a nice relaxed atmosphere. The Guinness pie was our favourite!

Had the Sunday roast it tasted lovely and our server Paul was lovely, But the downstairs male toilet had a horrible smell and the upstairs one was broken

Excellent food - fish was very fresh. Bartender made a drink that wasn't on their menu - most restaurants we've been to in London won't do that. And they didn't try to sneak in a "service charge".

I ate here with a couple of friends on a soggy Thursday night. The restaurant wasn't overly busy when we arrived but filled up steadily. We all went for the scotch eggs which were well made and tasted pretty good. I then went for the bacon chop which was a good size and tasted exactly as described. A nice side of chips made for the perfect accompaniment. The service was attentive without being overbearing.

Nice environment and friendly staff. My only quibble is that despite not being busy, we were put on a table closest to the kitchens. Staff were leaving dirty dishes on the counter next to us, and cleaning the dishes and putting scraps into the smelly bin close to us. Of course, this is part of the job, but maybe don’t do this so close to customers. We could also hear the loud conversations that the staff were having (great that they clearly are having a great time at work) but maybe again, do this elsewhere or more quietly! Food was ok- overall would return, but be more conscientious next time

Ate dinner here last night. Service was great. Our challenge was food poisoning. All members of our party were vomiting all night and exhausted all day today. Spoiled our vacation as our Sunday plans to attend the North London Darby turned to trying to recover. Cleanliness is obviously an issue.

L’endroit est très typique. La salle de restaurant a l’étage est so british. Plats copieux. Nous vous conseillons le fish and chips et le feuilleté à la viande. Un délice !! L’accueil et le service sont aussi au rendez-vous !

A few downpoints, but good roast and delicious cauliflower cheese. Stay away from brownie!

Smelt very strongly of fish. Nice coffee tho.

Just lovely! Sat by the fireplace, everyone was totally relaxed, friendly, great atmosphere, positive vibe.

Excellent! Personnel souriant, très bon rapport qualité prix. Le fish and chips est un incontournable !!!!!!!!!!!!!

Delightful Sunday roast during the London marathon. It was very busy and the friendly staff accommodated a walk-in.

I recently visited this pub and had an amazing experience! The service was top-notch, especially thanks to Yula. She was super efficient and helped me choose from their delicious menu. The atmosphere was great, and the food and drinks were fantastic. I highly recommend this pub to anyone looking for a memorable time with great service.

Awesome find - food is great - very popular so booking essential. Service and staff are extremely good.

Visited the Marquis of Westminster on Thursday night, was a lovely time having nibbles and drinks with my friends. Service by the beautiful bartender Yula was amazing! Would highly recommend this venue. Was a lovely vibe inside and outside the bar.
