As at Dec 2008 doing Fullers London Porter, a historic London ale in excellent condition.

Not a bad pub at all. Used to pass through Paddington on my way home from work, if my train was delayed I would call in here or the Isambard on Platform 10, although this one was always much better. Fullers beers always kept nicely, staff usually pleasant and efficent.

Probably the best station pub I have been to in a long while. Fullers range plus Tribute and Seafarers. £2.95 a pint but lots of clocks and a departure board inside the pub. Pint was excellent too.

A rare thing here, a half decent railway station pub in central London.

Plenty of room, clean, quick bar staff and a good selection of Fullers beers. Had decent pint of both Pride and Discovery on my visit.

The others should take note.

Fullers have done well here - most station pubs are usually situated between 'tolerable' and 'appalling' - this one actually manages to crawl over to the sparsely inhabited side of 'good'.

Usual Fullers ale range (Pride, Discovery, ESB, Chiswick) plus two(!) guests. As mentioned by GDS below, the fridges are stocked with almost every Fuller's bottle imaginable. So you won't be spoilt for choice.

Food is basic, stick to the onion rings. Place is pretty clean, also unusual in the train pub stakes. Toilets are free, and also pretty clean.

All in all, very good for what it is and well worth a visit when using the station.
