picture of Fountains AbbeyNow that the gentrification of King's Cross is well underway, has Paddington replaced it as the mainline station with the least appealing surroundings? If you judge such a quality on neighbouring pubs, then perhaps so. Chancing a drink in the environs of Paddington station has always been a tough one and it says a lot that this standard T & J Bernard pub is one of your safer bets in the area. It does nothing out of the ordinary, but is dependable enough as a post-work water hole or safety net for any tourists that have staggered in this direction from the station.
