Improve This Listing

Built in 1832, the name refers to the exchange of the royal mail by horse drawn coach, which ceased with the advent of steam. Take a look at the punning pub sign which tells a different story! This is a small, traditionally furnished street corner London boozer tucked away in a side street a few minutes away from Paddington GWR station, with Edgware Rd underground stations and bus routes nearby. Small outside drinking area on pavement. Pizzas and nachos available.

As of 2021 the pub was under the same management as the Priory Arms SW8 and Grosvenor Arms SW9, both noted for their interesting range of beer. One regular and one guest cask ale plus about 12 keg beers are on offer here.
