The 1994 Real Tennis British Open was the 15th edition of the British Open since it became an annual event in 1979. The men's event was held at the Queen's Club in London between 18-28 November 1994 and was organised by the Tennis and Rackets Association. ^[1] The men's draw was the fourth and final grand slam event of the year.

The men's singles draw was won by amateur Julian Snow for the third consecutive occasion. Snow defeated Lachlan Deuchar in the final. Snow was within one game of losing his semifinal against Wayne Davies, and at one point was two sets and 1/4 down. ^[2] In the doubles, Chris Bray and Mike Gooding defeated Deuchar and Davies in straight sets, the latter's first doubles match defeat since 1984. ^[3]
