Very nice ornate pub inside with lots of glass and dark wood. originally this pub would have had a number of separate rooms (there is still a door that has Ladies Room engraved in the glass panel) but has now been partially opened out . Lots of leather sofas and chairs about and clientele seems to be rather upmarket types that ignore you when you politely ask to get passed. Usual Youngs ales on with Sharps Doom Bar on as a guest during our visit. Nice place but not sure I would rush back. Plenty of blondes behind the bar though!

Rather typical but nice London dorner pub, bar facing you as you walk in on the corner & you can turn left or right. Bare wooden boards, high ceiling, dark panals & comfortable low or high red 'leather' seating.
Youngs house & seems to be full range. Well kept beer at £3.50 a pint.
A nice traditional pub.

This is a Young's pub, with the usual range on, including Kew Gold. I had the latter which is a pretty good pint. The pub itself seemed something of a relaxed haven from the bustle of the Paddington area and the nearby busy Bayswater Rd. Very pleasant sitting outside on a warm August afternoon in good company drinking a refreshing pint of Kew Gold. The pub itself has been completely opened out from its original Victorian multi-room format, but retains some of its original Victorian features - carved wood, and etched and cut glass all over the place. The main entrance seems to be on the corner – but take the time to wander round to what is effectively the side entrance in Craven Terrace to have a butcher's at the original entrance hall containing an original mosaic floor; tiling, and the doors leading to what were originally the Billiards Room and Ladies' Room. What would best be described as the main room – the room you find yourself in when walking in the entrance – is a reasonably comfortable functional pub bar, but the room at the back is more sumptuous, with armchairs, portraits on the walls, and has more of the appearance of a gentlemen's club. Something for everyone then.
This pub is worth seeking out if you're in the general area, and I'll definitely drop in again if I'm in the area.
