A little behind the scenes of what goes into your plate…
Our food preparation doesn’t begin and end in The Victoria kitchen.

New autumn dishes are on their way to The Victoria very soon.

Chef appreciation post. 👨🍳
It might be 36°C outside today, but spare a thought for the team behind the kitchen doors.
Through the heat, the busy services and some seriously hot kitchens, our chefs are still here doing what they do best and making sure every plate goes out just as it should.
A little appreciation for the people behind the food. We couldn’t do it without them❤️🙏🏻

What people say
Located in the charming Strathearn Place in London, The Victoria, Paddington is a historic pub that exudes elegance and character. Built around the same time as Paddington Station in 1838, this establishment has a rich history that adds to its allure.
Legend has it that Queen Victoria herself stopped by The Victoria on her way to Paddington Station, leading to the pub being named in her honor and adorned with a grand style. Over the years, The Victoria has attracted a diverse array of patrons, including butlers from the surrounding large houses, literary figures like Charles Dickens who found inspiration within its walls, and even modern-day celebrities such as Liam Gallagher and Keira Knightley.
The pub's upstairs rooms have been transformed by theatrical types post-World War II, creating a unique ambiance that blends history with contemporary flair. With its cozy atmosphere and friendly service, The Victoria offers a quintessential London pub experience that has earned it the title of Time Out London’s Most Loved Pub in Paddington & Bayswater.
Whether you're looking for a casual drink or a spot to soak up some local history, The Victoria, Paddington is sure to delight with its charm and timeless appeal.
