Paternoster in City of London, Westminster

Perfect service from Daria. Delicious Food, we had fish and Chips and the sunday roast

I visited a pub near St. Paul’s today, and it was a fantastic experience. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive, and the manager provided outstanding service, checking in to make sure everything was perfect. I enjoyed a delicious steak sandwich, which was cooked to perfection and paired nicely with a cold beer from their impressive selection. This pub is also an excellent choice for Christmas bookings, with several private sections ideal for group gatherings. It would be a great spot for a cozy family Sunday lunch as well. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a warm and welcoming pub experience in the area!

Today i came with my girlfriend to this pub and this pub's environment and vibes are so catchy. All team members are so friendly , and special shoutout to nihar who gave us good suggestions on drinks and treat us like his family. If you are coming here look for nihar he is the best person i met ever in pubs like this.

Dee and Makeda were amazing. You couldn't ask for better staff. Happy, friendly, helpful, warming and very beautiful barmaids. It's so easy to see people who don't enjoy their work. But it's also double easy to recognise people who love their job. These guys are amazing. Bravo!

Nice and cozy place with super delicious lunch and service from Regis was amazing!

WOW!! Where do i start. I recently visited Paternoster and was blown away. The food was excellent—perfectly cooked fish and chips. But the real star of the night was Traveena, my server. She wasn’t just good; she was exceptional. Anticipating my every need, her knowledge of the menu was unmatched, and her timing flawless. Traveena made me feel like royalty, turning an ordinary pub night into an unforgettable experience. If you go, make sure you ask for her—trust me, you won’t regret it!

Very good atmosphere and nice people! Had a wonderful time

Very good service and Dee has been actually the kindest waitress during my stay in London. Will definitely come back

Paternoster is a gem! My family and I enjoyed its delicious Sunday lunch and brunch menu. My sister had the vegetarian full breakfast; and my brother-in-law, the traditional English full breakfast. My sister especially enjoyed the meat substitute sausage and the sides. Two other family members had roast chicken. The chicken was roasted to perfection, very plump and juicy. The bar provided us with a great variety of drinks, including sparkling wine, mocktails and cold draft beer. The service and atmosphere are equally enjoyable. The servers were very friendly and attentive. Our food was served fresh and cooked exactly per our orders. We close to sit in the to indoor dining area, which was nicely furnished and quite comfortable. We also really enjoyed the playlist!

We were looked after by a lovely waitress called Dee. She was very helpful and brought our food to the table and had a giggle & laugh with us. Would highly recommend!

Great atmosphere, and the sticky toffee pudding was everything I wanted it to be! I also had the chicken, bacon and leeks pie. Delicious food and excellent service!

The staff were great! Very attentive, Eleanor took great care of us. And that’s not even the food! Crispy fried Haddock, Scones, sticky toffee pudding and the chicken and leek pie in a warm, inviting atmosphere wa a great London experience.

Was told I couldn't have a pint glass for the cider I ordered, because the pint glass had a different drink brand on it, Also not the greatest selection of rum. Very spacious and good quick service.

Perfect space for an after drinks social. Makeda made our event run extremely smoothly and the attention to detail and help was 100% effort from her and the other members of staff.

Great place to have a proper British lunch and the food was excellent. Nihar did a great job serving us as did his colleagues who accommodated our requests brilliantly. Will definitely come again!

Perfect drink pour from AJ - definitely coming back

AJ was our server we had a great experience and fast service

The Sunday roast was very good. Very pleasant atmosphere

Delicious food and excelent service from Eleanore. I’d recommend it 100% to everyone.

Great food and excellent service from Eleanore. Very well located site and highly recommended.

Happened across this place after visiting St Paul’s Cathedral with my boyfriend. The atmosphere is that of a city pub if you go near end of working day, can be fairly empty earlier on. Is quite a large pub but I thought nicely appointed, especially noticed a well kept place on the walk downstairs to the gents. We had food and were very impressed. Even basic everyday dishes like the Chicken Escalope, which could be bland in many pubs, was very well seasoned here. Excellent meal.

Amazing, above and beyond the call of duty service from Daria. Was both friendly and accommodating. Thank you for supporting us to have a great evening!

Called in for a quick pint before doing a pub walking tour that started from just down the road..good selection of drinks, I had a favourite of mine in the St Austell “Proper Job”; a well kept and enjoyable pint served. All friend had good drinks, modern feel with good staff, will come again👌

Hosted a first lunch with colleagues and Dee and Daria were superb in friendliness and service of great food and drinks. Will be back!

We had wonderful service and food! Our server, Nihar, made sure we were comfortable and gave us lovely service. Will definitely be back!

Great bar, beautiful cocktails and friendly service from AJ. 10/10 recommend

Taja, is a very friendly and thoughtful bartender. Wonderful vibe and a great pub overall.

Great place to have drinks, food menu simple and convenient. The bartenders were nice and attentive (nihar). Will definitely come again

Loved everything about it! The place, the vibe, the staff and of course the food! And even prices are great. Thank you Daria🙂

food was so yummy and service was quick! The staff here are great, but I want to give a special shout out to Taja!! She made us all feel so welcome, was very attentive, friendly, and funny! overall a great experience😄

Went for a Sunday Lunch with some friends Great food and surprisingly kid friendly. A bit pricey, but everything around that area is

We had the best Sunday Roast, and Dee, our waitress, made the experience even better. She was attentive, friendly, and offered great recommendations. The roast was perfect - tender meat, crispy potatoes, and fluffy Yorkshire puddings. Dee’s exceptional service really stood out, making it a 5-star visit all around. Will definitely be back!

The rump of beef was spot on, and the oat latte was perfect. Dee took great care of us—really friendly and attentive. The whole place has such a warm, welcoming vibe. Definitely recommend!

Visiting from Canada. This is nicely located near to St Paul's, well configured as a place to eat and has a very pleasant atmosphere. The food is good and portions are substantial but well balanced in content. The service is great, and if you come across a server called Dee you've found a gem - helpful, gives straight advice and has a delightful sense of humour. I highly recommend the Paternoster for lunch.

Makeda was extremely warm and welcoming, we had a large group and she worked hard to fit us in on a busy night. After we had been let in seated and first served, she continued to work hard continuously to ensure we were met with the best service and that we never waited to be seen at the bar… anyway forget all the waffle, Makeda was bloody brilliant and made our night!

Came to this pub in St Paul’s and met the bar lady called Dee. She was so friendly and welcoming. Me and my son needed a place to sit down and eat and she made us feel so welcome. She was lovely and so accommodating and said absolutely no issues. I just want to say Dee your so lovely and we will 100% come back to this pub just because of you. Keep smiling. Well done Dee hope your managers are watching as your ace. Just to add lovely pub, great location and great atmosphere.

Quick pre-dinner drink. Lovely pub, cool atmosphere and Friday vibe.

My experience here was divine! I was served by a lovely girl named Taja, she was impeccable and the service was great. They also had great non-alcoholic options. Loved my time here, 5 stars overall!

I really loved my experience here, I was served by a lovely girl named Taja and she made my time here great The food and drinks were amazing and I knew they were going to be good but they exceed my high expectations. Overall great place, 5 stars!!

Great local bar to work. Always an atmosphere on a Thursday and Friday night. Good prices and good is good too

Dee was an awesome server. While I live in England, im American and we’re very big on hospitality. I felt right at home! She had great and honest recommendations. I would recommend the burger and an old fashioned. Great experience overall!

Makeda is really pleasant and attentive when serving. No ask seems to annoy her

Not usually one to review but the service I received at the premises was second to none. A special mention must be made for Dee who helped me with my food order and also saved me from embarrassment when a few drinks spilled on my table. Dee was there instantly cleaning up "our mess" with a smile on her face and a positive attitude. Her energy and charisma made my day and will definitely be back whenever in the area.

Great reception, welcoming and friendly. Taking care of my family Thanks to you

We ate the Sunday roast: fabulous. Nice atmosphere of the place and the waitress was very professional and at the same time very friendly. We had a very good time

Great pub with a view of St Paul's! Staff is very nice and friendly

Went here for a business lunch and the fish and chips we had felt rather oily on the chips, but everything else was great. Was quiet when we went but definitely a popular pub around the St Paul’s area, better than some pubs and bars very close by

Can’t rate The Patternoster enough. Perfect vibe for after work drinks and especially on a Thursday. Everyone is so attentive and always cleaning empties from outside to give customers a pleasant drinking and dining experience. Daria always on alert with everything. Thanks guys!!!

Perfect for work drinks! Very busy on a thursday but great atmosphere

Great place for drinks and food! Dee and makeda are awesome, definitely will come again!

Great pub, amazing atmosphere and a very nice selection of drinks. Right outside the cathedral, the view is beautiful. The service was excellent and the staff were friendly and helpful. Definitely recommend !

Little desire to attend. Unable to make a cut

Nice spot, beer ok, but no ale, food awful.

Everything was awesome. I really enjoyed it here. Such a high end pub with the typical pub dishes. I especially liked how they took it up a notch and provided exquisite details in the menu. We all had the fish and chips, which means unfortunately, only one dish was sampled. The fish and chips were excellent. Nicely cooked chips, crunchy battered fish. Nice sauces. I did not mind the curry sauce at all. The peas were alright. I don't know how come they were not very green The tartare sauce was yummy. We also had 2 pitchers of Pimm's. I'm willing to try more items on the menu, but might have the fish again... Would definitely go back .

Lovely pub 🍻 staff very helpful always pop in from time right next to St Pauls cathedral

The food was a little below average than what I was expecting. However the service I received from Dee was 20/10. She went above and beyond to ensure I had a good experience, her energy is top notch. That alone made up for the food and I left feeling extremely satisfied !!

5 stars is not enough to describe the BEST Sunday roast we ever had, extra gravy came in a a massive jug with elephant sized Yorkie! Honestly all food today was made out of this world, call it food coma or seven heaven! Team was very welcoming and genuine, especially Daria! We had to ask chef’s name, please pass on to Mike that he is the best Chef in the world and we will be coming back to try all his recipes. Thank you Paternoster for such amazing meal and great time!

Honestly this is the best Sunday Roast Ive ever had. Daria who served us was so delightful. Compliments to chef Mike! Just brilliant.

Daría provided excellent service, to support a perfect evening. Thank you Daria! A great optional if you want a pint in the city.

Daria was a great host and remembered all of our drinks even though it was rounds! Great view of St Paul’s also!

My Favorite Modern London Pub, A Genuine Culinary Delight, Brilliant Vibe & Fantastic Staff….Especially Daria….Daria is Extremely Friendly, Engaging, Awesomely Hospitable and Provides Brilliant Customer Service….I Look Forward to Seeing Daria’s Warm Lovely Smile Each Visit!!! I’ve Dinned At Paternoster Several Times Since 2022 and Today I Once Again Enjoyed A Delicious Paternoster Culinary Classic…..Smoked Haddock & Mackerel Fishcake (Pouched Buford Brown Egg, Samphire Mustard Cream) and Nutbourne Tomato Salad 🤪

It was early evening so not that busy. Nice looking pub, friendly atmosphere and your average prices. Nice pint of Aspalls cider. Toilets were clean. Great site very close to St Paul's cathedral

Good pub. Good selection of beers and wines. Good space and nice decor. Will return

We stopped by for killing some time and luckily stopped here. Since the beginning to the end the service was great ! Easily we can recognise that the team here don’t hesitate to walk an extra mile to deliver the best they can ! I tried the burger which I believe that was one of the best I ever had ! The ladies toilet is very clean, beautiful decor and very close to the St Paul’s Cathedral and the station ! I really recommend it !!! Thanks for looking after me & my family!

Great service, I had great time with my family, delicious burger, fair price, and great location, just few steps from St Paul's Cathedral, do not lose your time walking around, this Pub will be your best choice.

I had a great experience in this place, friendly staff, fair price, great food, great location, clean and beautiful Pub, my feeling is, for sure I will be back there again.

Nice selection of beers, good environment to have a pint after work.

Visited on a July Sunday afternoon to have lunch. Was looked after by Regas and Makada and Rocky. Fantastic service, great atmosphere and wonderful food. Really impressed with the venue and will most certainly be returning soon. Had the Sunday roasts of chicken and beef - excellent.

The beer was wonderful! I recommend!

Decent portions and quite tasty. Fish was fresh and the chips really nice! Burger was tasty as well! Friendly and helpful staff, definitely recommend!

Been here several times over the years. Fairly modern place, good location near the square and the cathedral.

Such a great bar. Easy to reserve a table and they have great service there too. Loved the selection of drinks and the atmosphere is buzzing but without being too overwhelming and busy. Didn't have food but everything looked and smelled delicious. 😋 We will definitely be returning! 😊

Quieter and more sophisticated than some other pubs in the area. Drinks are good, food is tasty and service is quick. AM Daria is very nice too. Overall a good place to visit.

Amazing beers and Dee is fantastic,

Amazing place! Great food, fresh beer, perfect service and welcoming staff. It was also a lucky pub to watch England winning Switzerland!

Dee has the best service and she is very proactive in serving drinks. We will be here every week!

Perfect pub , with friendly bar staff which is so unusual in London 😢

Great atmosphere, a great variety of drinks and the good is top notch. The staff are quite friendly and great at customer service

Lovely meal 2 kids (6 and 1). Dee our server was exceptional, really helpful and wonderful with the kids and anticipating what they need and when. Food was good, Yorkshire was tasty!

Polite staff, speedy service, healthily battered haddock, fat nice chips. The curry sauce was nice surprise. More mushy peas next time please.

I organised a client event Jun 26th and our hostess ( Makeda) was excellent at all levels. I had forgotten to pre-order drinks and food and Makeda was very helpful taking the orders moments before guests arrived as well as providing really good suggestions about sharing platters. I had never been to the Paternoster before, but with this level of service I’ll surely be back !

Excellent fish and chips. Freshly battered and deep fried on the premises. Large portion of chips to accompany, plus a variety of condiments. More mushy peas next time please.

On this occasion, we only popped on for a light bite and drink before an event at St. Paul's. As in the past the staff were friendly and welcoming and the food was good

Good site . Very quiet and well served food

Lovely place and super friendly stuff who accommodated our group of 20 people with no problems. Thanks to our servers Giulia, Daria and Reges

Leaving drinks held - crazy busy but helped with own area and helped all evening with drinks. Great staff and worked well in this very busy location.

We held a work event here in April and would thoroughly recommend this venue. We had around 50 attendees and were given "The Snug" area which is at the back. This was absolutely perfect for us. We all absolutely loved the food platters, and we were looked after beautifully by Daria and her team. The chef and other staff were extremely helpful and accommodating, and when we wanted to order more platters and desserts on the night, they did everything they could to provide what we wanted at short notice. On the organisational side, I was assisted all the way through by Giulia, who helped me choose the most suitable function room for our event, and was instrumental in the planning of the event. We were all super happy with every aspect of the hospitality and venue as a whole, and will certainly be returning. A big thank you to all of you at The Paternoster.

Had a really good time, went with my mother. Would like to thank Daria for her incredible service. We were also served by Dee, who is special to us.👍🏾

Very friendly welcome and great service from the lovely staff especially Basel our server. Good range of food and drinks, excellent value for money, thank you.

Really nice English style place. Excellent menu and wide choice. We were served by Olena, friendly and professional!

Came here for lunch really great service from Olena the fish and chips was really lovely will definitely come back

Olena was great at the restaurant. Helped us throughout the customer care. Lovely lady

Daf and Maddie were great servers. Treated us so well and we loved our meal, drinks & service at Paternoster!

Great food. Great service and the staff are always welcoming with a huge smile at all times. Definetly a great place for meeting and or doing work! Highly recommend coming here and will be coming back soon!

Was looking for a place to book 13 people near St Paul's and this place was just fantastic. I think I booked less than 12 hours or so and they were able to accommodate us with no problem. The food was very delicious with a very good portion and it was quite cheap too, around £20-25/person. All of us enjoyed our time and our server Makeda made sure that all of our needs were attended to. I definitely recommend this place if you're looking for some British food!

The atmosphere is great, the staff is polite and the food is amazing, well done you guys

Dee was amazing! Quality service and great atmosphere

Super delicious food and drinks! Great pub style atmosphere. The Olives appetizer was a fantastic addition to the table (comes with toothpicks for both green and kalamata varieties, sans pits). The Ceasar salad was one of the best I've had; complete with fresh bacon pieces(bigger than bits), perfectly hardboiled and halved egg, fresh crunchy romaine, croutons, and three anchovy fillets(which I removed). The Ceasar dressing was not at all fishy, just creamy and superb. The
