This cosy and quintessentially British pub is centrally located, just a two-minute walk from Paddington Station. Regarded as one of the best locals in the area, The Pride of Paddington (or POP to those in the know) is renowned for its excellent food and good quality rotating cask ales. With a strong wine list and seasonal cocktails in addition to classics, it makes a great venue for birthdays, parties, after-work drinks and a good stop-off on your way to the train.

Recently refurbished, you’ll find nods to Paddington’s historical and cultural links. Look out for marmalade-loving bears and suitcases while you sit in train-style booths.
