I hosted my 40th birthday at Walkers of Whitehall. Incredibly lovely staff. Super helpful. Antony and Julia were really easy to deal with pre-event and answered all my questions quickly. Aria and Julia and Hassan were around on the day to help and were super friendly and attentive. Was able to decorate the place and play our own music. Would highly recommend the venue.
Nothing of note. Was excellent.
We had an absolutely AMAZING night with Julia and her fabulous team at Walkers of Whitehall. I can't sing their praises enough. We were a rowdy group of 34 and we felt so looked after all night. Julia answered all my questions super quickly and when there was a slight mix-up with the drinks packages on the group menu, she threw in two extra bottles of wine for free. The food was EXCEPTIONAL and very good value for the price. I was particularly impressed by the beautifully cooked steak! The food was staggered by dish when brought out, but this was entirely expected for a group of our size and didn't detract from our night at all. I had brought four large number balloons and some other decorations and the staff very kindly agreed to dispose of them so I didn't have to worry. All in all it was a wonderful night for our group's Annual Dinner and in such an amazing location as well - and we loved the vaulted bar. THANK YOU to all at Walkers for a fantastic night.
No negatives!
Great communication leading up to the event, and during. The staff were quick to respond and always very helpful and accommodating. The food and service were fantastic, and our guests commented on this.
The food ordered could only be left out for 3 hours, but the staff were good at communicating this when we queried it, and packaged up the leftovers for us to take home.
The downstairs bar was beautiful and the staff were very accommodating and kind. We hosted an engagement party and everyone had a great time
About Walkers of Whitehall
Welcome to Walkers of Whitehall, Westminster’s newest all day eatery. Providing a vibrant and fresh social hub, our venue blends the old and new seamlessly.
Like many buildings of its kind in London, Walkers of Whitehall didn’t start its life as a licensed site. Built in 1694, it was originally an Irish bank with cashiers upstairs and offices and vaults below. It has taken on several transformations since then.
Walkers of Whitehall retains its character by integrating the original vaulted basement ceilings from its former life as a bank, tying them together into a modern offering of elegant banquette seating, open theatre-style kitchen and stunning lighting and décor.
The Robata Grill influences our menu, and offers succulent meat that is cooked over English Oak with an open flame. The word ‘robata’ directly translates into fireside cooking, which is perfect for Walkers of Whitehall and the menu is inspired by this style.
• Vibrant and fresh venue
• Combines old with new
• Originally and Irish bank built in 1694
• Integrates original vaulted ceilings with the rest of the venue
