The Mad Bishop and Bear Fuller’s Managed Pub – Paddington Station, London: A Real English Pub

The Mad Bishop & Bear, situated on the first floor of Paddington Station, is one of Fuller’s managed hsites from its impressive 400-strong estate. This spacious pub boasts traditional mahogany fittings, ornate decor, an extra-long bar, and an impressive selection of eight real ales on tap. Far from a mere station lounge, it embodies the true essence of a genuine English pub.

The pub’s unwavering commitment to superb standards has earned it several prestigious awards, including West London CAMRA Pub of the Year 2015/16. Furthermore, its General Manager, Helen Wilson, was rightfully crowned Fuller’s Master Cellarman of the Year. This esteemed accolade acknowledges exceptional cellar standards and outstanding beer-keeping. To achieve this honour, pubs must score 90% or higher in four consecutive assessments, leaving no room for even the slightest flaw, such as a smear on a pint glass.

Paddington Station, bustling with around 20 million commuters passing through annually, sets the stage for The Mad Bishop & Bear, making it a thriving hub of activity.
