The London Oratory, officially the Congregation of the Oratory of St Philip Neri in London, is a Catholic community of priests living under the rule of life established by Philip Neri (1515–1595). It is located in the Oratory House next to the Church of the Immaculate Heart of Mary (Brompton Oratory) on Brompton Road in the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea, London.

The Oratarians have four other oratories in the United Kingdom, the Birmingham Oratory, the Manchester Oratory, the Oxford Oratory and the York Oratory.
