The Queen’s Head & Artichoke Menu

The Queen’s Head & Artichoke is a restored Victorian corner pub and restaurant at 30-32 Albany Street. Its ground floor retains the easy atmosphere of a neighbourhood pub, while the first floor dining room and outdoor terrace give guests more space for a relaxed lunch, an evening meal or a gathering with friends.

Modern Mediterranean mezze forms an important part of the menu. Homemade bread and dips such as hummus, babaganoush and tzatziki sit alongside marinated artichokes, Spanish tortilla, halloumi and charcuterie, encouraging diners to build a varied spread of small plates for the table.

The daily changing main selection takes a broader European approach. Fish, slow cooked meat, schnitzel, risotto and seasonal vegetarian dishes can all feature, with the kitchen adapting details to the produce available rather than relying on a rigid list. That flexibility gives regulars something different while preserving a clear gastropub character.

Desserts may range from fruit led cakes and cheesecake to ice cream, chocolate sweets and a European cheese plate. A well considered wine list is central to the experience, and the combination of intimate pub rooms, flexible sharing plates and full à la carte dishes works for both casual drinks and a complete dinner.

Address: 30-32 Albany Street, London NW1 4EA, England
