The Bear Pub

They have 6 cask beer hand-pulls! And the location is very convenient to traveler-just near the entrance of Paddington station. If you like traditional British beer, you shouldn’t miss it.

Lovely lunchtime visit . Very close to tube station only 20 mins to west end theatres. About 30 beer taps including 5 hand pulls. We have been to the Pimlico outlet previously so knew about the ever changing plethora of beers on offer. We chose to share a burger meal and the 3x artisan cheese platter which worked very well for a lunchtime buffet. Staff were very chilled and helpful so we couldn't fault the visit

Great selection of craft brews, although food options are lacking. Burgers seem to be the flagship dish for the hungry patron, besides maybe some nuts or a cheese platter. The London Black Porter was silky deliciousness, the right amount of malty undertones with a nice full body. Great atmosphere, and wasn't busy on a Monday night.

We have had amazing tasty burgers and fries here. One “heat” (beef with hot sauce) and one “cluck” (chickenbreast). The fries with parmezan and truffle oil were amongst the best loaded fries we ever had. Very friendly staff and just a happy place to be!

Wide range of beers and wines and a great place to spend time ahead of catching a train at Paddington Station. Burgers were delicious, particularly the veggie version with Portobello Mushrooms and Halloumi.

Great pub for all types of beer! Even comes with a beer bible. Great choices. Great quality. Great service.

Fantastic selection of beer - mainly around the Pale Ale / IPA centre, but as a 'Best' Kicking Donkey is hard to beat. Had a nice burger with a good friend and chatted the lunchtime away. Very nice, simple, clean environment with very friendly service. Outstanding music. Will return!

Me and my friends came to London from Poland for a weekend trip and stayed in the neighbourhood. We visited the pub twice, had a great time. Friendly staff, wide variety of beers (and really good ones at that), reasonable prices, comfy atmosphere, not too quiet and not too loud, you can easily enjoy conversation. Gonna fondly remeber the place and hope I'll visit again someday ;)
