Our Food
The Victoria is loved by locals for many reasons…. not least our fantastic food. Chef Director, Paul Merrett, works closely with our head chefs to produce dishes that bring together the very best of Modern British cuisine often with his trademark Asian twist. Paul & his team deliver the quality produce & attention to detail of his fine dining days but with the relaxed approach of a classic British gastropub.
The Dining Room
Our bar and restaurant menu are available throughout the building. Choose a spot that’s perfect for you.
Our conservatory dining room is a beautiful light-filled space by day overlooking the garden…by night it shimmers in candlelight.
The main bar area always has a lively atmosphere, and our garden is the perfect spot to enjoy fine weather. Wherever you choose to sit we offer table service and the best food in West London!
British Cuisine with a modern twist
Modern English menus deliver classic favourites such as fish & chips or a great handmade burger alongside exciting innovation such as Roasted hake, caramelised cauliflower, samphire and hazelnuts or 16-hour slow cooked lamb breast. Vegan & vegetarian dishes are a big part of our menu too.
Sunday Roast
Our Sunday lunches are a local legend, with three different roast meats plus a vegan nut-roast always available alongside all the trimmings, cooked to perfection.

Our shopping list
Paul Merrett, Executive Chef of The Victoria, writes: “Sourcing ingredients for The Victoria is a big part of my job. I spend a lot of time meeting suppliers, testing new products and visiting farms and producers. I try to shop as seasonally as possible and keep a careful eye on food-miles too.
I am very proud of the suppliers we work with and the quality of the produce we receive. It doesn’t matter how good a chef you are if the produce is not up to scratch.
We often get interest from guests on our sourcing philosophy, so we’d like to share that with you here.”
