Mcqueen - Carta

Such a great bar. Really well run. Great design the kind of place John Milton from Devil's Advocate would love. Friendly and welcoming staff. Delicious pizza. Even if we move to a new office, it'll remain our local

We have been here a few times and never been disappointed. Lovely decor. Plenty of choice of drinks. There is also a nightclub in the other bar if you feel like making a night of it and moving on from the restaurant.

My friend had the Groupon voucher for the course menu with wine. We were sitting at a seater table and i was on the bench which is just too low. You need two pillows to reach the table. The meal was fine nothing great to be honest and the waiter was not the friendliest. Ver carta

The lamb was lovely and tender and I loved every bite. The restaurant looks great with the dark wood and the bar area is definitely somewhere I want to check out in the future. The only fault was that I felt service was quite slow. But highly recommend this place for date nights and after work drinks.

Ordinarily, a glitzy bar-cum-restaurant-cum-nightclub like McQueen in Shoreditch isn't the kind of place you'd find me having dinner. Aimed squarely at the kind of high-spending, hard-living City geezers n' gals who like their spirits premium, house happy and ropes velvet, it's somewhere I've always given a wide berth, even though I used to work just round the corner.

The venue was an ideal choice for our annual client Pool Tournament. We received service above and beyond from Beth and there aren't enough words to describe how amazing the bar staff were all evening. There was some miscommunication over the food order, but this...was identified and dealt with as soon as possible. Our clients and staff enjoyed the evening immensely and we will certainly be booking again. The only thing I would say needs attention was the condition of the ladies toilets (toilet seat missing, doors sticking), but it's is an easily remedied issue. Ver carta

McQueen, named for Steve McQueen has the lot – a restaurant, a bar and a downstairs club. Its design is supposed to emulate American cool, in homage to the coolest of cool cats, Steve McQueen himself. I think they do achieve the look they’re going for, the space is pleasing to be in, and the odd quirky, slightly gothic touch such as the candelabra or bizarre human tree sculpture gives the place a bit of personality. I do wonder if the clientele it attracts are quite what they had in mind – there were a lot of City types in there; young guys doing Sambucas on a Wednesday night and then patting themselves on the back after each one. (Well done guys, you can take a...read more

Hazel Nevard heads down to the well established McQueens, to see if their new chef can serve up food as good as they serve up their drinks. When I heard Chef Nigel Smith had joined McQueen, it was a great opportunity for me to find out just why Where Now rate this Shoreditch Club as a top hotspot and see if Nigel’s food hits the spot. Cool and clubby yet homely with lots of squishy leather chairs and a big screen playing Steve McQueen movies, this restaurant doesn’t try and emulate any other. The place has a confident edge and so do the staff, who just seem to ‘get it’ where service is concerned. The ambiance is American/British and the menu is loaded with American classics a...read more

Last week I was invited to test the Designer Dining Menu at McQueens. When I got the invite I immediately jumped on the opportunity mainly because I walk past this place almost twice a day, on my way to and fro work and I have never been inside. The place is dark and musky and always made me think; what fun for a stag-do! Or after work drinks for the city crowd streaming North from Moorgate. I am not sure my friends are really their target audience, but I invited a girlfriend of mine to come along, cause I imagined we would at the very least get some great eye-candy among the brown leather chairs and oversized black bar. Well my friend and I arrive and even though we are the only...read more Ver carta
