History
It was originally built as The Queen's Hotel by the architect and developer John C. Hill in 1898–1902,[2] or 1899–1901,[1] with Art Nouveau stained glass by Cakebread Robey.[2] Built at the northern end of Hill's recently completed Broadway Parade, it was described in Pevsner as "one of suburban London's outstanding grand pubs".[2]
Diagonally opposite, in Topsfield Parade, was the Queen's Opera House, which was opened in 1897 but damaged by bombing during the Second World War and subsequently demolished.[2]
The Queen’s features in the British gangster film Love, Honour and Obey (2000) where the main characters perform karaoke.
