Westminster Bridge Road is a road in Lambeth (to the east) and Southwark (to the west), London SE1 running from Westminster Bridge over the River Thames at the western end to St George's Circus at the eastern end. The Florence Nightingale Museum is at the west end.

Lambeth North tube station is located halfway along. Between July 1906 and April 1917, this station was named Westminster Bridge Road.

Between 1966 and 1995, the office block located at 100 Westminster Bridge Road, otherwise known as Century House, was home to the UK's overseas intelligence agency, the Secret Intelligence Service (SIS), or more commonly MI6.

The road forms part of the A3202.
