| It certainly did not look like a pub from the outside, but was an OK place for a pint prior to the train departure. I had a tasty pint of "Old speckled Hen" and it was served at the correct temp to my taste. My wife had "London pride". We didn't have any food, but noticed the menu list with a variation of choices. Next time travelling via Paddington I won't hurry up to the street level to look for a dining pub, I will try The Isambard menu. hgr - 11 Jul 2008 20:14 |
| I had to do a double take on this place before I realised it was a pub. I had a 20 minute wait for my train so I popped in for a quick pint and wasn’t disappointed. 10 times better than standing on a train platform, which cannot be said for all railway station pubs.

| Surprisingly quiet whenever I have been there. Presumably more people go to the Mad Bishop up the escalators but this is a decent enough meeting point with a reasonable selection of beers. TerryTibbs - 4 Mar 2008 11:20 |
| Ok...it's a square box and located on a busy platform entrance...that aside the staff were very friendly and efficient. Comfy seating and beers not bad. Could do a lot worse if in Paddington waiting for your train. MikeClarke - 26 Feb 2008 15:27 |
| Impressed by the range of ale on (in a station platform pub I'd call more than one a range). My ESB was fair and not-too-badly priced given the location. Bazco101's got it spot-on, this is a dinky square box but they've done well with the interior. Can see why they've got the lock on the bog door - the other pissoirs in the station are 20p a tinkle at least this one is free for the paying customer. Would take a punt on this if you've got a 20 minute wait for the train and fancy a bit of refreshment. But if you've got 40-50, maybe go out of the entrance and have an explore instead, this one’ll keep for the next time you’re here. Quinno - 17 Feb 2008 23:02 |
