McQueen's In The City
Bringing a Touch of Vintage Hollywood Glamour to East London
"Sometimes you have to say goodbye to the things you know, and hello to the things you don't." Steve McQueen
McQueen... London's newest bar, club, restaurant, live performance and music venue takes its inspiration from Steve McQueen, the king of cool, his iconic style and attitude.
Bringing a little vintage Hollywood glamour to London; sophisticated, tasteful and refined, this is a venue for connoisseurs bored with the usual 'go-to-a-bar-and-drink' nights out.
With its high ceilings, chesterfields and warm inviting fireplace, The Lounge Bar is possibly the most McQueen influenced room. Not only is this room reminiscent of a New York City loft style apartment, this room is also a tribute to the late Alexander McQueen, with a lavish mannequin styled sculpture, art deco design, with plenty of vintage touches and an ever-evolving art collection.
The Club is where McQueen goes a bit rock'n'roll, mixing 1960s Hollywood glamour with a contemporary live music space, creating a venue unique for comfort, service and experience. This is boutique clubbing at its very best. Expect to see some of the world's top DJs & promoters here every week.
Chris McCormack, Head of Live Music and former lead guitarist of 'Three Colours Red' and 'Grand Theft Audio' with his team of respected musicians will bring in the very best acts in today's music scene including bands, musicians and DJs old and new.
Like the bar, the restaurant at McQueen has a vintage cool appeal, inspired by the look and feel of McQueen’s movies. As such one wall of the restaurant will play iconic movies with live music and performance, inspired by the 1930s supper clubs era.
AGM Theo Von-Sternberg and bar manager Eline Bosman have created a list of simple, no frills, delicious drinks inspired by McQueen, and the golden age of Hollywood circa 1920s to 1960s.
The fruit-led cocktail phenomenon of the 80s and beyond has taken a back-seat to the old school style/flavour and balance led drinks. All the house drinks are American based classics with a slick twist. Using spirit bases that were available during that time (1920s - 1960s)... rum, brandy, vodka, whisky, and liquors.
Open Tuesday until Sunday from midday, there's a party every night at McQueen...
Saturdays David De Darvalho's Body Heat nights fuse music, art, fashion and society.
Crazed Cabaret on Friday's is 1960s Hollywood meets alternative cabaret, with resident DJs Team Disgusting, Jimmy Napes & Emily Rawson, alongside weekly performances from cabaret artists such as TrixeeBelle, Chrys Columbibe, Monooka the Marionette, Naomi DeKleined on the fiddle, plus music much more... dress code is decadent so dress to impress.

See you there Baba
Mcqueen's is an awful bar. Only go here if you enjoy people being rude to you. I went there last night and the people on the door were the rudest I have ever come across. We got there before 9 but they still charged us to get in. When we questioned this they shouted at us and made us wait out in the rain while they discussed it with the guest list holder. We walked up to the door but they told us we had to go around the queuing system - even though there was nobody there!! Just ridiculous. The bar service was really slow even though there were loads of staff and it wasn't very busy. The toilets were a disgrace which surprised me for a bar of this 'calibre'. The music wasn't very good and there were more staff than customers which just ruined the atmosphere of the whole place. They also had some poor woman doing a rather dismal display with a hula hoop. It was all just a bit embarrassing as no one was watching her and she was just in the way!
