About this restaurant

  • Lively
  • Charming
  • Neighborhood gem
Smith’s Bar & Grill is nestled in Paddington, Central London, it is the first place you see when you walk under the bypass behind Paddington Station.

Known for its high ceilings and almost full-length windows, the natural light in Smith’s is just as nourishing and wholesome as the comfortable furnishings and exquisite selection of food and drink that we serve.

The venue is split into the areas:
• Main Restaurant
• Main Bar & Lounge Area
• Outdoor Terrace Canal-side


Smith’s is an ideal venue for weddings, on-location filming, major launch events, and multi-stage music and entertainment events.
The whole venue can comfortably accommodate up to 200 people for a sit-down dinner and up to 400 standing. Its proximity to Paddington Station (50 yards from the Hammersmith & City Underground entrance) makes it quick to get to for those coming from out of town.

    Went for the bottomless brunch on a Saturday afternoon and it did not disappoint. The atmosphere and the service was soooo good. Such a good value for money and after our time was up we got moved to another table after so we could enjoy the happy hour and some oysters near the bar. Overall it was such a fun experience and it definitely became my new favourite spot.

    I ordered oysters and the first thing I was told was: let me check if we have any. But like the happy hour is about the oysters. Fast forward there was oyster even tough they were the most tasteless oysters I have ever had. I do not recommend is not worth the money and vibes are off
