Prince of Wales, Paddington

About Prince of Wales

Unpretentious hangout with outdoor tables serving typical pub grub, with Thai options.

First licensed in 1841 and originally on Bishops Bridge Road, it was rebuilt on the present site in 1967 as part of an office block development. Mixed clientele of office workers, tourists, and users of one of Paddington Station's many lines including the cross-London Elizabeth Line. Large windows and an outside seating area that catches the afternoon sun give an airy feel to what is a fairly small pub. The interior is modern-ish, complete with railwayana, including a free-standing station clock. English pub grub, Thai food and wraps are on offer food-wise. Two or three cask ales should normally be on offer.

    Great spot for a quiet pint to catch up with your friends a stones throw away from paddington ☺️. Decent pizzas too.

    The Prince of Wales, the POW, The prisoner of war, many other takes I am sure. A great pub secreted between a plethora of gigantic office buildings in Paddington. Lovely people and great staff, the indoor clock on a lampost, telling the wrong time is a gem. A lovely pub.

    Nice and bright Bar close to Paddington Station. Good for a beer (Estrella!) after work. The fish and chips were good!

    They do a mean Red Thai curry and a decent pint! Worth checking out!

    Overall okay. Both my husband and son enjoyed their respective dishes of the Thai Fried Rice ans Lamb. I didn't enjoy my salmon. It was too fishy for me and it could just be me. We just landed London and wanted something to eat so we walked to the closest place we found.
