The Wolseley is a restaurant located at 160 Piccadilly in London, England, next to The Ritz London. Designed by the architect William Curtis Green, the Grade II* listed building was erected by Wolseley Motors in 1921 as their regional offices with a ground floor showroom. The ground floor was occupied by a branch of Barclays Bank between 1927 and 1999.[1] After a brief period as a Chinese restaurant, it reopened in 2003 as The Wolseley following extensive renovations by British restaurateurs Chris Corbin and Jeremy King.
