The Queens is a grade II* listed public house and former hotel on the corner of Elder Avenue and Tottenham Lane in Crouch End, north London.
It was originally built as The Queen's Hotel by the architect and developer John C. Hill in 1898–1902,[1] or 1899–1901, with art nouveau stained glass by Cakebread Robey.[1] 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".[1]
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.[1]
The Queen’s features in the British gangster film Love, Honour and Obey (2000) where the main characters perform karaoke.
