About Queens Tavern

Highgate’s Beaufort Street anchor swaps predictable pub counters for an authentic Italian kitchen—pairing crisp spicy sausage pizzas with cold pints and lively chatter. Regulars crowd into the beer garden for sunny afternoon rounds, while winter evenings shift indoors beside crackling open wood hearths with mugs of hot mulled wine. The kitchen turns out tender beef cheek ragu and spongy ricotta-topped focaccia without losing that easy neighborhood tavern swagger. Service stays sharp even as tables fill, with house staff keeping drinks refreshed alongside plates of warm toasted ravioli.

  • Italian Kitchen Focus: Bypasses standard counter staples for wood-fired spicy sausage pizzas, house-made focaccia, and rich beef cheek ragu.
  • Winter Hearthside Dining: Cold-weather visits center around active indoor wood fires accompanied by seasonal hot mulled wine.
  • Neighborhood Gathering Spot: A bustling beer garden and historic tavern rooms supported by hands-on hospitality for casual pints and milestones.

Frequently Asked Questions

What style of food is served?

Queens Tavern features a dedicated Italian kitchen alongside its pub offerings, serving dishes such as house pizzas, beef cheek ragu pasta, meatballs, and caprese salads rather than an extensive English pub spread.

Do you need to book a table in advance?

Evenings and weekend afternoons get busy, especially in the beer garden. While walk-ins can grab open tables during quieter times, booking ahead is recommended for larger groups to ensure seating together.

Is there indoor fireplace seating during winter?

During colder months, the tavern operates cozy open wood fires inside and serves seasonal warm drinks like mulled wine.

Where can guests park, and how is entry access?

There is a parking lot located at the rear of the venue for patrons. Note that accessing the restaurant from the rear lot involves a small staircase, so visitors with prams or mobility needs should enter via the front entrance.
