The Union Tavern in City of London, Westminster

Didn't eat a main course only snacks so can't comment. But great pub, brilliant service, great staff. Would have scored higher but only there for two hours!

We stumbled upon this lovely little pub with a terrace right by the water, and it was a great place to be after walking around Notting Hill and Portobello Road for a while! The pub is right on the riverbank, and the setting is perfect for a drink and a relaxing stroll by the water!

Very chaotic but interesting place. Maybe need some deep cleaning.

Popular pub kn the canalside best enjoyed in the day but was OK at night

Great ambient, location really good next to the canal's Beer are good and food also

Very mediocre food... mushrooms was 3 tiny mushrooms. Truffle fries didn't taste like they had any truffle.

Amazing pub experience. The venue and staff were so warm and welcoming, it really made my Saturday evening. Emma in particular really stole the show, will definitely be coming back!

Really good pub along the canal, friendly staff, great food and a good selection of beers. Perfect the place to go after visting Portabello Market!

An absolute gem of a pub we found after going to Portobello Market, really friendly staff, good food and great choice of drinks. Will definitely be retuning!

Sunny spot on the canal. Delish chicken wings, crisp beers and good views, what more could you want

Lovely pub across the river. I discovered this while biking in the area. I went there with friends and it was actually super nice. You can have the view on the river while it’s heating outside. It’s the perfect place for a date or a group of friends. I will come back !!

Tia has been a fantastic bartender- very good at managing people and making everyone feel welcome. This pub is great but especially because of Tia!

Had a Sunday roast here and was blown away. Perfectly cooked sirloin, with crispy potatoes and enough gravy to drown a midget. Will come back

Lovely little pub right next to the canal, good service but was quiet at the time so not sure what it's like at peak time. We didn't eat but the food looked great from what we saw and a good selection of burgers on offer. Would recommend and will be back again.

I recently met a charming and welcoming bartender here named Lewis, who was incredibly knowledgeable and friendly. He introduced me to the new range of IPAs on offer and truly inspired my interest in them. Even though I’m not usually an IPA person, his enthusiasm and expertise kept me intrigued, and I left feeling genuinely impressed. I highly recommend visiting this delightful place if you’re looking for insight or just a quick pint or two!

How disappointing that on a lovely Sunday dinner time, they run out of every kind of roast, cheeseburgers, yorkshire puddings and vanilla ice cream. Really ruined my lovely Sunday. Shame on them.

Lovely pub, great beer and service. Amazing location

Este es una joya de un lugar en el lado del canal, el personal es siempre super educado, amable y eficiente. Por el precio, sin embargo, la comida podría ser mejor.

Very good food brilliant service we love it thank you to all staff

Nice view at the canal. Perfect place to have a drink during summer.

This evening I attended The Union Tavern Westbourne Park; a pub I frequent a few times a week and have done for a number of years. I have ordered and drank 2 tequila and ginger beers. The third drink I ordered, I sent back as it had a strong taste of aniseed, only to be told the ginger beer had run out so a different brand was used. My partner was then given another drink but when I was given it, immediately noticed it again tasted off and the colour was different. I was given patron gold. I never order patron gold and always have patron silver. I went to the bar myself to speak to the bar maid who I believe is called Rachel (and admittedly, she seems new). She was INCREDIBLY rude, dismissive and argumentative. She refused to redo my drink and resulted in me just handing back the drink without a refund. As a regular customer, I am extremely disappointed with the poor service and dismissive attitude of the bar staff. Not once in the many years I have been drinking here have I ever sent a drink back so to be spoken to with such contempt is both insulting and disappointing. No effort was made whatsoever to rectify the situation and I have left out of pocket and disgruntled.

Great food, great beer, great staff. Rachel and a Georgia were brilliant hosts for our Xmas party ⭐️

Amazing pub. They accommodated a large group with fantastic food and delicious drinks. Best pub in West London

Very friendly, good atmosphere and 19 service

I had lunch here, it was such a lovely place with super kind and smiley staff, delicious food and a really positive atmosphere. My partner and I are hoping to come again in the summer to indulge in the beautiful view of the canal within its outside terrace eating space.

Lovely blonde lady served me and my partner yesterday, amazing mulled wine, gorgeous smily atmosphere, can’t wait to go back. Thank you xx

We were a big group and we had sunday roast. It was great, no complains

This pub is what a pub should be: welcoming staff, good food, nice beers, with the odd sour beer that I'm particularly fond of, good and clean facilities and the side canal makes it so nice in summer. It's a place I look forward to go with friends and where I'd bring family. I've now been coming multiple times each month since the last year, to spend the afternoon with friends. Unfortunately, there is one thing which means I can't put five stars, and in the long run will make me rethink if the trend doesn't change: food is good (Caesar salad made my summer) but portions have been gradually becoming smaller, and prices have been going up.. It won't stop me coming, but will definitely make me rethink wether I buy food or not, which is a shame. Hope that trend subsides, because prices are already quite in the uppper range now for a pub. I appreciate there is a balance here, but it's now becoming lesser value between portion and price.

Had a fabulous evening…and the service we received was above and beyond. Thank you 😊

Very long service and meal not plentiful at all.

Es un pub bonito, lo suficientemente inteligente en el interior, pero realmente su punto de venta es la terraza junto al canal frente al sol del sur. Así que todo bien cuando el sol brilla, no hay razón real para venir cuando no lo es.

Great place. It’s nice to be greeted with smiles the second you walk in. Great food, nice beer choices, super staff!!

We really enjoyed the food, nice vibe, really clean. However, the staff by mistake gave us an order of fries that we hadn't ordered, we tried to return them, and they said it was fine for us to have them. But then, at the end, they made us pay for it, even though we explained everything. Fries were good tho.

Adorable place , actually one of my regular ones, good and friendly staff, pet friendly

We just had a drink, very light pub.

The place very nice , but the workers very bad 😅. They don’t put attention to the customer. Here are 3 lady’s and they just talking upstairs Instead of put the cutlery’s 😉

Lovely pub down by the canal with split level seating areas, some outdoor sections overlooking the canal, perfect for a nice warm evening or daytime snack. The beers were good, the staff very friendly and it was quite empty when we were there just after 12. The food looked nice, although we only had a light snack. Sunday roast is available too.

Nice staff, beer garden looks great. Much more like a cafe than a pub however, cold bright lights, no music, very strange

What a lovely pub. Great sandwiches - really good! Sadly didn't get the name of the young lad who was serving us but he was such a gem. We were meeting up with friends after a horrible bereavement so it was awful circumstances but he was so lovely it really cheered us up. The kindness of strangers means a lot in those times so top marks for service, and everything else. Thank you.

It was great meeting and seeing new interesting people and other kindred spirits, in a really historically rich and cultured town, outside of London. The drive there was well worth it! Thanks for the excellent food, the great service and the fun and secure atmosphere everyone can see, feel, hear and enjoy.

We were able to sit outside by the canal in wonderful weather, wonderful to just enjoy. Service was top.

I was here for a wake, so not great circumstances, but the pub had a good vibe about it, well situated with a cool area below next to the canal. Would like to return on a more sociable visit.

Nice atmosphere between the clients. Nice spot. The personnel is ok. They should serve something small along with pints, like nuts or chips.

Staff not very friendly except one young guy serving on Thursday 19th he ok but some of the staff walking in and out not friendly not like it was busy should be more friendly for £6 per pt wouldn't bother to often no atmosphere

Lovely garden by the canal and excellent food

Friendly, neighbourhood pub. Great location by the canal. Excellent pub quiz on a Wednesday evening.

Best local pub ever ! Amazing views !

What a find. Nice pub with deck facing the Grand Union Canal. Interesting menu. Prices not too bad.

Nice atmosphere and location, especially the terrace on the canal. The food was good, we ordered two burgers with chips which were tasty but quite small. Overall nice experience

I loved the place, the location 😍 very good service, we will return 🤗

Good local option with nice views over the canal.

Used to go here all the time but staff has become rude. Don’t know if there has been a change in management but it’s not as friendly as before

Don’t know if it’s new management or just poor hiring but from entering premises the staff has become rude and unwelcoming. Shame for such a good potential.

Nice pub! You get an amazing view outside , facing the river! We just tried the orange cider, nothing else but we loved the place and environment, so we will come back.

Thanks for taking care of us Rachel! Great vibes on the terrace by the canal.

I paid over £8 for a pint of totally regular IPA - nothing special! Always has dirty loos and the only area with atmosphere is their canal side beer garden - usually full to the brim of smokers. Wish it was a good local, bc its in a great position. Just always disappointing.

Good (Fullers currently) pub with canalside outside space to view boating escapades or the comings and goings at the bus garage opposite. Friendly staff, pub food and good range of beers.

Very good pub with a beautiful terrace by the water. The food was very good and the atmosphere friendly.

The hallmark of the Union Tavern has to be its location on the Grand Union canal. Should be a good spot in Summer. They also have ‘visiting’ beers. I managed to get a tasty wheat beer. Otherwise good pub grub.

The vegan burger went through a very ropey phase a few years ago (ludicrously tiny, bland and overpriced) but I am thrilled that this changed under new management and the plant based burger is great! Editing this review because last time I went (early spring 2024) just after reopening from some redecoration/renovations, the menu has completely changed with the result that there isn't a single plant based meal. There used to be some great options before the menu changed. Now, the only thing on the entire menu was a sharing nachos platter for two which had a vegan cheese option. Not what most people want for their dinner - I ordered because I was dining with someone else and didn't want to make a fuss and go elsewhere. But unfortunately unless this is remedied I won't be returning. It's not a big ask to at least have a plant based burger on your menu along with your other burger options surely....this must be the only pub in the area not to offer one.

Nachos are trash. £12 for some dry chips and fake guac

Lovely pub with an amazing beer garden alongside the canal. They also had 3 gluten free beers on draught which is rare!

Decent fish dish. Better then average beet selection.

Nice pub but the Guinness was a borderline hate crime

The best around Westbourne Park

Managed to get just about everything wrong.... Shockingly bad

The place is very pretty with a great terrace. The welcome is very friendly and pleasant, the waitress is smiling and helps you choose your beer. A very nice discovery, I will come back! Very good IPa beer

Very nice Pub along the canal, with a good service.

Fantastic bar staff made us feel very welcome indeed!

If you want a nice pint by the canal this is the spot. Unless they train their staff how to operate a till however, no point in stopping by. Took over 45 minutes to get a pint here on Sunday, I've never wanted to dash on a place so much as the incompetence found here

First time there. The first of many to come. Great place!

Atmosphere, Service , ambience- Perfect place to chill. Don't mind pricey food that is worth the price. But for 1 slice of small ciabatta with avocado and bacon for £12.00 on this is away too high

Very pleasant seating by the canal. Great when the sun is out! Had a good mezze and a couple of drinks.

Very friendly pub next to Paddington park - lots of outdoor tables in and out of sunshine, great beer selection, great atmosphere & dog friendly - food looked good and staff were very welcoming 😊

Amazing terrace directly at the canal 👍 The cauliflower was very nice.

Good pub. Nice beer. Pleasant staff.

cute little canalside pub, ideal for those bevvys in the sun.

Recently re-done and the place looks great! Was a vibe on a sunny day. Could definitely use another bar or more people working on a sunny day as there was quite line. Once you got to the front the staff were all really lovely!

Had a lovely plate of fish & chips, a burger, nachos, and a foofy drink and few pints of Guinness on a Friday evening and were very pleased overall

Good welcome and good choice of pressures, with a great setting whether you are indoors or outdoors.

Canal-side table on a fresh sunny Sunday, and great plates of Sunday roast.

Used to be my favourite pub. But after refurbished, price went up and got very crowded.

Cool place to go with friends and also they have a nice terrace ( canal side) 😀

Good selection on tap, wonderful servers, food is just okay weekdays, but recommend Sunday roasts - very much like home cooking. Cool outdoor seating on canal.

Came in real hungover after a night out. Partner felt sick on the way home, and after being sick said the roast tasted better on the way up. I'm not as dramatic but I'm convinced their heritage carrots are just dyed purple.

Great pub with lovely staff. Good selection of beers and amazing outdoor terrace on the canal for the summer. Could do with AC inside.

Goodness gracious me what a view from the beer garden

Great job on sprucing up the outside patio and downstairs areas.

A modern pub located on the banks of the canal. The nighttime atmosphere on the water's edge and with beautiful lighting makes the hours go by quickly.

Nice beer selection, and very nice location with a great terrace looking onto the canal. Food is tasty, but overpriced for what you get.

Lovely outdoor space by the canal, good food, and great service.

The pub quiz is a lot of fun and the staff are fantastic. Great spot

We stopped here for dinner on our way home from a busy day and enjoyed our time. The food and drinks were good. No complaints.

After some time without visiting I came today for a Sunday roast and was bit disappointed. I entered an empty pub with very high prices.. A Sunday roast is now over £20 and a pint of lager is over £7. The quality of food was ok, but the Sunday roast shrank to a single piece of beef and few vegetables. I understand everything is going up, but today it seemed excessive and similar pubs in the area have more reasonable prices.

We came on a Friday night to get a dinner. Pleasant and cosy atmosphere with friendly service. The venue wasn’t that loud and one could easily have a conversation. Food was good, but I wouldn’t say exceptional. We’ll come again!

Amazing service and food was great. Well done, it’s so simple to get things right and these guys just do in spades. Great position on side of canal oh and the beer was great

Good range of craft beer, although the string stuff is pretty pricey. Nice vibe inside and out, in a paved area by the canal.

Fantastic table great service and best chips in London

Great craft beer selection, friendly staff, and a lovely view of the canal! Went back recently (same great service and atmosphere) and a member of our party was very impressed to see gluten free beer on tap!

Food was fairly average but did the job and to be fair, I’d eat there again, but it wouldnt be my first choice if you know what I mean. Great little spot next to the canal for a cheeky lunch beer or after work bev though. They also have Guinness extra cold which is always a winner
