Huge new Wetherspoons planned for central London station as pub company targets capital's transport hubs
"JD Wetherspoon is planning to open a huge new pub at Paddington Station as it continues its expansion across London's major transport hubs. The proposed venue would occupy more than 3,600 sq ft across two floors, including a mezzanine level, and would take over three units in the station's former ticket hall, which provides direct access to the Bakerloo line."
"If approved, it would be larger than the company's recently opened Captain Flinders pub at Euston and slightly smaller than The Lion and The Unicorn at Waterloo. London's railway stations have become a growing focus for the pub chain in recent years. New openings have included The Sun Wharf at London Bridge and Walham Green, located in the former ticket hall at Fulham Broadway."
JD Wetherspoon intends to open a new pub at Paddington Station occupying more than 3,600 sq ft across two floors with a mezzanine, taking over three units in the former ticket hall and offering direct Bakerloo line access. The venue would be larger than the Captain Flinders pub at Euston and slightly smaller than The Lion and The Unicorn at Waterloo. The chain has been focusing on railway stations, with recent openings at London Bridge and Fulham Broadway and a licence granted near Charing Cross. Plans indicate a possible name of The Post Room and public feedback is being sought before a formal planning submission. The government announced a 15% business rates discount for pubs until 2029.
