The blaze started in a terrace on top of the office building on Buckingham Palace Road, which was closed off by emergency crews.
Around 5,000 Google staff and employees of other firms based in the six-floor building were evacuated, as four fire engines and 20 firefighters fought to extinguish the flames.
A Google spokeswoman, speaking on her mobile from outside the building, said that no one had been hurt and all workers had been accounted for.
"All I know is that there was a barbecue on a roof terrace on one of the Google floors," she said.
"We have all been moved away from the building and we are waiting for the fire brigade to tell us when we can go back in."
