The 90-year-old monarch was enjoying a private lunch at the Goring Hotel in London's Belgravia when the guy reportedly waved his arms around before sprinting through the front door in the early afternoon.
The royal was ushered out of the establishment by managing director David Morgan-Hewitt.
According to Mail Online, witnesses claimed the man appeared drunk and was spotted on the Tube before the incident.
One witness quoted the guy as saying: "I'm Irish, I'm hard as f**k."
Describing what they saw happen on the London Underground, they said: "He was crawling around on the Tube picking up empty cans and sucking out what was left."
After the Goring Hotel incident, the intruder was stopped by a man in a suit, who was thought to be a royal protection officer, and was patted down by officers who let him go.
But it is not known why he entered the building.
It's not the first time the queen has come close to an intruder.
In 1982, Michael Fagan broke into Buckingham Palace on two separate occasions, and the second time he ended up in the monarch's bedroom after entering the royal household by climbing up a drainpipe.
While some reports claimed he sat on her bed, he admitted in a later interview that she ran out of the room to get help.
Speaking about the July 1982 incident in 2012, he said: "It was a double bed but a single room, definitely - she was sleeping in there on her own.
"Her nightie was one of those Liberty prints and it was down to her knees.
"She went past me and ran out of the room; her little bare feet running across the floor."
He also claimed to have entered the Palace a month earlier, where spent 30 minutes eating cheese and crackers, drinking wine, and wandering around before leaving.
