About Venue
The Carlton Tavern, a century-old pub located near Paddington Recreation ground in Maida Vale, has a rich history. It was here that Roger Bannister famously trained to break the 4-minute mile. Despite surviving the Blitz during World War II, the pub faced an unfortunate fate in 2015 when property developers illegally demolished it. However, thanks to a dedicated campaign by the local community and Westminster council that spanned over 5 years, the pub was painstakingly reconstructed to match its original design, thanks to the efforts of local architect Francis J. Potter.
As of 2021, the Carlton Tavern has been rejuvenated and reopened, ready to serve the community with quality ales and delicious food for the next century. We offer a pub, dining room, and a charming beer garden for your enjoyment. We eagerly look forward to welcoming you, whether you're dropping by for a quick drink or a three-course meal, or anything in between.

Our go to place for a delicious Sunday roast! Visited The Carlton Tavern many times and it never disappoints! My fav item on the menu is the sticky toffee pudding and I will always have space for dessert and order it. Their Sunday roast is delicious and flavourful paired with sides like sweet potato fries w aioli, mac and cheese and cauliflower cheese!

The Carlton Tavern is a Maida Vale institution. Many people come to enjoy the great beers selection after games of football or tennis. The food is traditional and delicious. The pub organises many events like live music on Fridays, or food offers on week days. The beer garden is lovely in the summer and heated in the winter. I fully recommend this place if you're in the area.

Very cool pub! Chicken schnitzel was perfectly cooked, rabbit rague pappardelle was delicious. They have the happy hour menu and appetizing sandwiches uptil 4pm on weekdays. Wide selection of alcoholic drinks, of course. Plenty of seating space inside and outside and the bartender lady was very welcoming and helpful. Thank you!

The food and atmosphere here is outstanding and reasonably priced, loved the appetizer special. Definitely try their Scotch Egg. Highly recommend grabbing a table in the beer garden and eating here, will definitely be back!

Great neighborhood pub with a relaxing garden. This is an ideal place to visit when I want to leave my flat but not go that far. Next to Paddington Rec so ultra-convenient if you have the dog with you or out for a walk by yourself.
