Paxton's Head in City of London, Westminster

A good venue, the staff were very friendly,

Visited on the Friday night, lovely atmosphere, the food was so good I had fish and chips it didn’t disappoint! Our server Claire was so helpful and attentive making sure we had a good meal.

They may of had an off day but the Sunday roast was terrible! Meat was dry and vegetables were cold. I sent the salt and pepper calamari back to the kitchen. I don’t think it was calamari. £5 roast from waitrose would have been better money spent

Excellent find in the heart of Knightsbridge - we came off Hyde park after a nice walk, we wanted to have some food so headed upstairs to a beautiful restaurant, our waitress Claire was phenomenal very friendly and polite - recommended us the beef and raclette pie and ooohhh boy that was a great pie indeed Heads off to the chef dish a great dish thanks you to all staff, we will be back if we come to London again

Pub with classic decor and very beautiful. Great food and beer and wonderful service.

Found this beautiful pub a while back with the girls while in Knightsbridge visiting, food was amazing and the service was just as good So we came back again - I highly recommend the Scottish muscles

Had an excellent time there. They even had a dj

What a great traditional pub in central London , we’ve had an amazing pint of London pilsener and the best fish & chips ever, Simon and & Clare are fantastic and made us feel very welcomed , thank you guys and see you soon Tad

What a great hotel in central London , we’ve had fish & chips and few pints of London pilsener , the service was fantastic and there was dining available we’ve loved , thanks Simon and Clare… you are great

Nice English pub with good food! Stopped in after walking around Hyde park. Scotch egg and cottage pie were excellent! Would definetly recommend and go back!

Visited the Paxton's with some friends. Had a couple of drinks and some food. The food was delicious. Claire was lovely who was looking after us. It was nice to sit in the bar for drinks and then be sat in restaurant for food. Lovely little find

Nice place went here for some small bites and beers with my lovely friend

Very nice pub with cosy atmosphere. Friendly staff (especially Theo and Joan) were really helpful. We had a nice evening there.

Visited Paxtons Head for dinner with friends last night and just loved the atmosphere, such a cool place for a drink or dinner, definitely worth a visit.

We're here from the US on our first trip to London and a friend recommended this pub, he used to live near it. The vibe is great, cozy and cool with great music. You order food and drinks at the bar, grab a seat and they bring it to your table. We came in around 8pm, found a table and ordered. The beers on tap were delicious while we waited. BUT, let me just tell you that the food was the main event. We got the steak & ale pie and the cheese toastie with chips and fries, both plates were beyond delicious - decadent, hearty, and perfect! The gravy for the pie went on absolutely everything as soon as the plates landed and we inhaled it all! After that we ordered the sticky toffee pudding with custard - just, yes! Get it! It was hot and gooey and something we'll be coming back for again before our trip is done! The meal was the perfect cure to our jet lag on our first day here! The staff were so friendly and asked if there were any allergies to be aware of with each order (we had none), and every time anyone walked by they checked on us. We agreed there is only 2 outcomes from this first dinner in London - either every meal after this will pale in comparison or we'll mourn all the meals here when it's time to go home. Even though this is in the middle of a very busy tourist district, it was recommended to me from a Londoner and now I know why. Definitely eat here!

Lovely little find to stumble on! Great atmosphere, touch of London history & plenty of space! Georgie was super helpful in finding us a table for our large group thank you!

The special Beef rib cottage pie with cheddar mash was outstanding. Chips are fantastic too.

Ali the manager took a good care of us, especially my mother with a wheelchair. Food was nice too.

Popped in for a couple of pre-Proms drinks. The food was good. The chilli sauce on the halloumi was amazing!

Very good looking pub outside as inside. Split on two floors and I think the upper floor is a function room. Massive selection of drinks and craft beers. Only minus is the waiting to be served, dur9ng busy times two bartenders can't manage and keep with decent time to serve drinks which sometimes stretch to 20 min to be served

There is no security, they stole our credit cards and they think that with a soft drink they will recover. I understand that it wasn't their fault but they could have done something better to help. If I could I wouldn't have even a star 😒

We were eating very bad food, there was no security, they robbed us, I don't recommend going to that place, they only gave us a soft drink in exchange, when they stole our credit cards and cash, if I could give them zero stars I would.

We just happened to pass by a decided to pop in for lunch. It was only just lunch time and the upper floor quite, with a pleasant welcome from our server. We ordered our food and drinks, as the resturant started to fill up. Food was lovely, delicious and well presented. Good value for money and excellent portion sizes. Highly recommended 👌

Really lovely pub, staff really friendly and food was amazing we had the crab burger and ribeye steak on the specials, my son loved the Nachos

Came to the pub a few months ago and did not want to return as the service and atmosphere was not great. Came here today…not my choice. But…very pleasantly surprised with the complete transformation to service standards. I saw a member of staff running around working very hard. Asked her to call the manager so I could give some positive feedback. Turned out she was the manager. Thank You Claire! We need more managers like you in pubs. Angel was amazing too. Place seemed so much more welcoming. Keep up the great work. Thanks to everyone 🙏🏻

Decent Green King pub. Nice ambience. No Cask beer except for Green King IPA but Guinness in fine fettle. Didn't eat so can't comment on that.

Cool pub in London, close to the park and Harrod's. The service was quick, friendly, accommodating. The food was warm and tasty, the beer was cold and great. Everything perfect! Happy again at any time, highly recommended.

It was a quick pop in after a gig in the park, staff were great & the atmosphere was good, the beers were a little limited, but it was nice to see the old place.

Claire is amazing. So friendly and great service.

Went to Paxtons Head for a pre show meal. Absolutely amazing service, great atmosphere and superb food. Fab location to Hyde Park for events too. Will definitely return.

We booked a table for the England game before heading to see Robbie Williams at BST Hyde Park, communication red the booking was great, we were taken to our table quickly when we arrived by a very friendly chap. We had a bar upstairs which was served well, prices were great considering how close to Hyde Park we were. Food was good and the atmosphere was great. A great start to our day. Thanks to all the staff that looked after us.

Loved the place, relaxing atmosphere, the duck hash was outstanding! So close to hyde park

Loved it, great atmosphere before BST would recommend to anyone

Three words, get the duck! Fun spot, amazing food.

Delicious "Fish & Chips", nice place, I would be happy to return!

Our first meal on our long awaited return to London, so it's gotta be fish and chips right? Of course it does. Had a wonderful meal here and spoke to an equally wonderful person who worked there behind the bar. Great building with classic period details. Love this pub!

Fantastic gem of a pub in the heart of Knightsbridge on the doorstep to Hyde Park. Great venue, super food and fantastic staff! Prices are London prices, but the selection and quality second to none. My new favourite place for after work drinks.

Delicious food, excellent service, highly recommended 👌

Proper authentic pub in a great location, made even better by the bar staff. Georgie & Simon are legends!

Lunch stop, ok, but thing special. The food menu is pretty boring, and the food itself is bland.

One of the best Fish and chips I've ever had too good 🤩

We had lunch upstairs, staff were so friendly this is a gem of a place right in the centre of Knightsbridge, great fishcakes too

We came here today on the Spring Bank Holiday. I ordered the Vintage Cheddar and Bacon Burger. It came out with no cheese. When we asked, we were told they were out of cheese. How does this happen? And why wasn't I told this when we ordered so that I could choose something else? The burger was bland. The fries were good!

It took a long time for the food to come out. I ordered the chicken sandwich it was a childs size portion. The fried calamari was all tasteless couldn't taste the salt & pepper and it was all batter.

Came in for a quick drink with a friend and ended up staying for hours! Bar staff and atmosphere are so so good. We were served by Georgie behind the bar, who couldn't have been more welcoming and tentative. Would recommend to anyone, can't wait to come back!

This pub was such an amazing experience for me on my birthday. Literally couldn’t have asked for more, the staff was unreal!

Great location. Harrods accessible through a short cut from the Paxtons head. Hyde Park is across the road. Food was ordered as part of a function and was good. Drinks are expensive as expected for London. Staff were very helpful as we had a large amount in attendance. The atmosphere was good.

Georgie is the best bar staff ever!!! I think she needs a raise!!!

Pop in for a lunch Food was amazing and so as staff was

Had a drink there. Toilets down steep stairs. Bar staff were there.

Fantastic day. Simon and his team looked after us all day. We had over 100 Light Dragoons having a great time, Simon’s team never missed a beat. Food was fantastic too! Thank You ❤️

Would be 5 stars if they accepted cash payments as well as card.

Regular haunt this time of year! Great team

We have had a fantastic day, all staff were very efficient, friendly and attentive……..especially SIMON, he couldn’t have done any more for us, what a lovely guy!!!!!! We will deffo be returning………all the way from Norfolk. Love you Simon, from Nette 😘

A real British Pub with authentic ambiance. The food was great and the staff was very kind. Yeah, I would recommend this place

Green chain, but a nice one - additional sports bar in the basement

The pub gives no drinking up time.

The food was not bad at all but the service was really bad, 1 hour and a half of waiting and then receiving the wrong dishes, I will never return back

The worst experience since I have been in London. Place nice but... stay away. The worst service ever: - Waitress customer's attention and service totally poor and superficial; - we were 4 people and we waited more then 1 h . After this long time, I have asked explanation and they told me: Oh..we forgot your order!!!!!!' Crazy - once we have received plates, they were 3 and not 4!!!! One order was lost... I skipped my dinner!!!!!! - beers order wrong and come on...we are in an English pub!!!!! At the end, no excuse and no discount for all these mistakes!! Please be embarrassed for that!!!!! We are in London, people pay a lot and we pretend a good service!

We have been served after almost 2 hours waiting, and they served 2 wrong plates. I found it is not organized at all. We will never come back for sure!

Guys, just to let you know, this is not what chicken Kyiv is supposed to look like

Worst food and slowest service ever. I’ll never come back!!!

Don’t go here. Such a poor service. Wasted over 1h here for food which didn’t came.

Food was almost cold and part of the order never arrived. Portions were not very large and mac and cheese was mostly cheese and very little mac. Staff was friendly, if overworked, and place itself was beautiful, but cannot recommend eating there

Good food. Pleasant waiters and owner. Great interior vibe. Recommend stopping by. We stopped by on a Sunday for the Sunday roast.

Thank you for a great evening with friends - staff friendly and the food was delicious - a great atmosphere- we will be back indeed

We waited for 15 mins - no service. We had to get the waitress to come to our table ourselves. Even then, we were treated in an impolite way. Parts of our order kept being forgotten. After paying, the waitress just turned around with a quiet 'bye'. The only friendly employee was the barkeeper downstairs. Would not recommend overall.

Had a lovely meal here with friends. Not busy for a Saturday night surprisely. Nice atmosphere, service was good and good selection on the menu. Some of the dishes were better than others, especially in terms of portion control/balance. For example, the chilli dish needed more rice.

Amazing bar and staff every one polite and courteous a professional team well worth a pay rise. I will inform all my friends and family

Great pub in good location, food is excellent.... warm welcome from the staff on arrival... Staff are attentive and always polite.... Friday night karaoke is great as well. Thank you to the Staff and Management... keep it up.....

We went to the Hyde Park and felt really cold due to rain. To protect ourselves from cold and get a bit warm, we headed to this cozy pub. The ambience was soothing and the drinks were good too.

Amazing amazing amazing!! Loved this place so so much! Went with my girlfriend and 10 of her family before heading to Harrods. Staff went out of their way to accommodate us and gave us the best service! Our family then had the BEST dessert we’ve ever had! If you haven’t, do yourself a favor and get yourself the Eton Mess:)

Amazing place brilliant food. Sat in now.

Great pub to chill at if you get tired after walking in Hyde park. Great staff. Good atmosphere.

Very nice bar. Any service. The waitress was not very pleasant. The food is also average. The burguer was absolutely disgusting: overcooked meat, filthy bread, etc.

Very nice pub. We had fish&chips and a couple of beers, and it was excellent. Familyfriendly.

The fish & chips were excellent, the breading and browning were crunchy and not at all heavy. It is served with french fries and steamed peas. The price is around £15. Varied choice of beers on tap, from Guinness to English ones. The furniture and lights give it a typical English pub atmosphere. Prices in line with London. Advised.

Great location, friendly staff, delicious food, Highly recommend 👌🏻

Great meal with friends and family the atmosphere was great - thank you team for an amazing afternoon - we will be back when next in London

Great meal at Paxton head today with friends and family - thank you so much for looking after us

Probably not a 5 stars but 4 aren’t enough. Very well maintained pub. Great interiors and a decent selection of cask ale. Ideal for a date, an afternoon reading or a friendly chat. On a busy street but once in the world outside doesn’t matter. Screen for sport and not-too-loud music selection. Special mention for Theo at the bar. Friendly and attentive. If you’re around pay a visit to this place.

50 mins waiting for a chicken wing, calamri and a fries

Pintoresco...un lugar acogedor..el camarero empanado. Para tomar un café no..para cervezas si esta genial . Para comer seguro que también

I was visiting London for usual 3-4 days to see my Boston friends while they over for a week. It's very rare I am in Knightsbridge area, but their hotel was, so we called in for a drink after one of their route marches through the Capital! What a really great pub, staff so helpful and friendly! Of all the Guinness my friend had during is week this is the only one with a Shamrock on it! I was offered a fair choice of wines - had a lovely Pinot Rose. I really like the layout inside. On my next visit in few months I will make a purpose visit to this district purely to have lunch here.....and a vino of course!

I was at the Paxton Head closing an urgent deal as my original booking at Bulgari proved a disaster. The pub is incredibly hospital with wonderful staff. The manager Ali in particular was most welcoming to me and a delegation of Japanese and South Korean delegates. The deal, at one point in jeopardy, was concluded with laughter and risqué Asian stories. Thank you Paxton Head! I flew back to my Zurich pad with fond memories. No doubt will be there again conducting future deals - who needs 5 star service when a Guinness and pork scratchings made me a potential fortune in business!

Nice pub ,great staff special thanks to alli for taking care of us in busy time

Great place to drink and food ; worth it

Best beer London pilsner Portobello

We waited more then 30 minutes for our coffee when the pub was almost empty. Wouldn’t recommend.

Pop in for lunch today, what an amazing time we had ... ! We ordered steak and ale pie and fish and chips that was really delicious, my friend have some allergy with food but manager taken extra care for that and helps out with our oder ,he was so kind and generous ,he's name is Ali thanks for looking after us

Great pub in a fantastic location, staff were so friendly and the food was delicious! Would definitely recommend! 5 star

What an amazing place we been looking after really well thank you Ali your so good host mate :) special thanks for mendarian hotel

Just launched a new menu so we decided to try it out. Great food, very plentiful. The Scottish mussels are a must if you’re looking for something from the special menu. Staff were very helpful. We will definitely be going back.

Visiting London popped in for a beer and seen the Cumberland scotch egg on the specials board had to try it and wow delicious - great staff to go with a great pub

Bailey is an absolute darling. Her and esta are quite the dynamic duo On our second round, the manager Alli was an absolutely great host

Waited an hour for food, then they said the tickets machine was broken so had to wait longer, they didn’t care

Amazing place with great staff and food. Atmosphere is second to none definitely i will recommend and return soon. Thank you
