Queens Garden was an upscale dining establishment situated within the Parkhotel Den Haag in The Hague, Netherlands. It received a prestigious Michelin star in 1960 and retained this accolade until 1971. The restaurant’s Michelin recognition was revoked in 1972 after a shift in its culinary focus.

Henri Frisch, who also owned 't Koetshuis located in Rhenen, managed both the hotel and the restaurant until his passing in 1964.

Positioned adjacent to Noordeinde Palace, ownership of the restaurant was held by the Levi Lassen Foundation.

History

The vegetarian hotel-restaurant Pomona commenced operations in 1912 on Molenstraat, later becoming known as Parkhotel. The venue gained prominence through its distinguished restaurant, Queens Garden. Following the acquisition of the neighboring Hotel De Zalm in 1968, the property was renamed Parkhotel De Zalm. A significant refurbishment in 1986 reinstated the name Parkhotel and transformed the former Queens Garden/Queens Room into two distinct dining venues: the "Garden Room" and the "Park Room".
