Rob Hunter left this review about Victoria Tap
Visited on a Friday afternoon in June. At the time, this venue used the Real Ale Finder app, though I was disappointed to find the menu was out of date and the ale I was hoping to sample was not actually available. I see the venue is no longer listed, so perhaps they couldn't be bothered keeping it up to date, which is a shame.
My previous visit here was in January 2025, which I don't appear to have documented on here, and on that occasion I had the Bradfield Farmers Stout, which was OK. I don't recall the cask line-up being too adventurous.
The Victoria Tap has a long bar along the back wall, leaving quite a narrow space in front of the bar with a few tables and chairs, and a bit of additional customer space at the far end of the bar.
It's worth a visit, if only once, but I prefer its sister venues at Piccadilly and Oxford Road stations.

A rumbustious reuse of an old station room with 4 cask ales on from 6 handpumps and a good wall of crafty stuff. Not a huge amount of room inside but there are tables out the back with added trams. Definitely the best option in the vicinity and, as with the station taps elsewhere, a great starting/ending point for a crawl.

Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about Victoria Tap
Sister pub to the outlet near Piccadilly Station, and certainly a great addition to the Victoria Station offerings. Limited seating in and around the narrow bar area, but there's also a covered seating area of similar size at the back (if you don't mind the squeaky trams passing close by). Five interesting cask beers - including my Northern Roots from Green Arches (£3.90) - plus a cider from the six handpumps.
