About The Fountains Abbey
A straightforward, well-used Paddington local on the busy run of Praed Street, popular for sport and a solid pint before or after a train.
Sitting on Praed Street just a few minutes' walk from Paddington Station, the Fountains Abbey takes an unusual name for a London pub — echoing the ruined Yorkshire abbey rather than anything local — and does an equally straightforward job as a reliable stop for travellers, hospital staff from nearby St Mary's, and local residents. It's a sports-friendly, dependable local rather than a destination pub, exactly the sort of place regulars want to keep hold of amid ongoing redevelopment nearby.
On tap
A standard cask ale and lager range, kept in good condition.
Food
Everyday pub food, fast and reliable rather than ambitious.
