Gillray's Steakhouse & Bar

If you're headed to Gillray's, bring an empty stomach and high expectations. Situated inside the Marriott County Hall Hotel in full view of Big Ben and the Houses of Parliament, Gillray's fine food is as remarkable as its surroundings.

Everything about Gillray's is a seeming nod to British culture and heritage. Their meat is sourced from British farms. Their bar boasts not only fantastic staff but over 100 types of gin. Their service is of the highest quality in the British sense - subtle, yet polished. Even the decor is reflective of the old-world grandeur of the Houses of Parliament with the building, County Hall, once being the home of the London City Council.

The bar is open until midnight and serves a mixture of classic and contemporary cocktails, a wide selection of beers, wines, and spirits and is a charming spot to relax with a drink away from the crowds down on the Queen's Walk.
