Built in 1874 and named for Queen Victoria, Empress of India. Impressive woodwork and mirrors. Small seating area outside and comfortable leather banquettes round the walls inside.

Four handpumps should dispense at least three cask ales.

Between Leicester Square and Chinatown but a good refuge from the crowds, and seemingly often not noticed by them!
