Lunchtime on a rare London day when snow has settled on the ground. Few have ventured out to the pub and roast lunch sales appear to be slow.

The pub is found in West Drayton, Greater London, UB8 2HT.

An imposing pub in what seems an unlikely residential area for a pub of this size, until you realise that the Grand Union Canal passes by a couple of hundred yards behind the pub. As the pub name suggests, it was once possible to travel to here from Paddington by a scheduled boat service. Inside, the pub has been opened out but still has a small Public Bar area at the front, a games room to the right and more of a dining room appearance to the left. Sold to a development company by Fuller's with continued permission for licensee to stay but long term future uncertain.

We have visited this pub once, seen 2 different beers and tried 1 of them.
