The beer is good. Menu ok for a station. Ride the escalators to the top of the shopping are called the Lawn, and s goid range of ales awaits.

Ian

Convenient when you have just missed a train ! Excellent range of cask beers from several brewers.

Rob D ????????????????

The number of non Fuller 's beers has gone down recently. Still an excellent place to visit. Don't forget the pork scratchings .

Richard Sugden

Plenty of power sockets if you want to get some work done. Friendly staff and the breakfast is pretty tasty

Plwm Bwm

Excellent quality freshly cooked scotch eggs . Good squid too

Andy Nugent

Fast free WiFi , power sockets by a lot of tables and fairly quiet . Coffee and food good as well .

Ed Woodcock

Best place to work in the station while you wait for a train . Loads of power sockets .

Fullers Digital

Great Fish and Chips , pint of Pride. Love it!

Георгий Ющенко

Great food for excellent price. Very convenient location and friendly staff

Cennydd Bowles

Definitely one of the better railway pubs in London.

Valentina Covey

Good pub in Paddington station. Friendly staff , good food menu, fast service .

Matt Barber

Deece bacon sausage and egg roll in here. Large fullers bottle selection

Mallen Baker

Nice atmosphere, good range of beers , what's not to like?

Stuart Wright

Why wait for your train on the busy platform . Take the escalators up here and enjoy your wait. They have boards with the times, so you won't miss your train .

Chris R (thechristophe)

Quick breakfasts including vegetarian options as well . Good if you've got time to kill before a train .

Plwm Bwm

Excellent breakfasts served until 12. Good choice of beers too

Graham Farr

Great pint of Guinness and the homemade pork scratchings were fantastic. Would have been better, warmed.

Erik

Probably the only London train station pub worth missing your train for. Fullers ales on fine form.

Rob D ????????????????

An excellent pub . Makes just missing a train acceptable.

Rob D ????????????????

Makes tea using a tea pot. Probably the only place at the station that does so.

Mark B

Great selection of beers and friendly service

James H

Recommend the Ploughman's for the hungry traveller. French bread , peppers and ham may not be traditional, but what it lacks in finesse it makes up in generosity.

Michael Daniels

Definitely upgrade your Coffee and add a slice of carrot cake ...dunk the cake in the cream #Boosh

Jay Dee

It's like a mo-town party all to myself at 8am. It really is the only place to eat/drink in the station.

Plwm Bwm

Now with battered Chillis on the menu

Vee Vik

Nice ambiance

Jessica

Not much on an atmosphere but not had a place to have a quick drink before your train !

Elisa McCafferty

Drink of course! Good pork crackling . Nice looking food too.

Sian Daw

Mezze Platter is delish but order extra ciabatta bread :)

Steve Switzer

All day breakfasts .

Michael Morris

The pub is advertising that all World Cup games will be shown here. Several tv sets here and a big screen

Will Makeig-Jones

Try the super strong ales ! Yum yum!

Cath Rocha Davies

Waiting for your train ? Better with a pint and free wi-fi

Russell Dean

Sign says food until 9:30. I've never been served food after 8:30. Including tonight. They've always "just closed the kitchen".

Tengku Zahasman

Try their Hake fish & chips .. absolutely brilliant!

Dave Parry

Good homebrewed beer and cider

Chris Howell

Best place to have a pint of Fullers before your journey home

Alun John

Really enjoyed the pint of Tribute I had here

Andrew Stephens

A great Cottage Pie

Matt Turner

Can't believe how different this pace is when it's daylight outside. I had never realised it had windows.

SubtleBlade

Expensive, but best bet on the station for a drink and a snack .while you're waiting for a train to arr/dep.

Jean-Michel R

Pass on the "Crispy Coated Chicken ." It's a stale wrap lacks flavour.

Joe A

Get a pint of ESB in a goblet! Like a goddamn king!

Julian Lloyd

ESB off two weeks in a row! Boo hoo!!!

Tony2Pints

Be careful of the pigeons roaming the floor

Antonis. Ch.

Mmmm, a nice cold pint before the long journey back to Swansea!
