There’s an intriguing background to this quite smart venue near Paddington station, founded as a meeting place for international journos and snappers, and whose walls display iconic news photographs from around the world. Feedback has shrunk over the pandemic period, with the odd unsettled report, but it has in the past offered a useful dining option in this thin area, so we’ve included it but without a current rating.

The ground-floor restaurant of this ‘gathering place for journalists, photographers and other like-minded people’ is worth remembering as one of the more civilised dining options right by Paddington Station. The food, though lacking fireworks, “has always been a good, reliable experience”, but of greater interest are the striking examples of photo-reportage that decorate the walls.

For 33 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).
