We visited The Paddington recently on a gloomy Saturday with my son, and despite the rainy and windy weather outside, it was the perfect place to escape to. The autumn decorations created such a cosy and warm atmosphere, making it feel very welcoming.
I especially want to mention one member of staff (sadly, I didn’t catch his name). He went above and beyond before he had even started his shift. He saw us arriving in the bad weather, opened and held the doors for us, helped us get settled at our table, and made sure someone would come over to take our order. His kindness and attention were exceptional — a truly lovely example of great hospitality.
The waiter who later took our order was also very friendly, and the food was absolutely delicious.
The only thing that affected our experience was an uncomfortable situation where there was a loud argument between what seemed to be a chef and another member of staff. The shouting really changed the atmosphere and made us feel a little uncomfortable while we were there.
Without that moment, this would have easily been a 10/10 experience. The food, the cosy autumn setting, and especially the outstanding service from that one gentleman made our visit memorable. Thank you to the team for the warm welcome — hopefully next time we can enjoy the full experience without any disruptions.

Please ensure people managing the place - Max are educated enough to represent and manage such a place. The context being - request to use washroom in case of emergency which he denied when I mentioned I'll get a bottle of water and his repeated non-cooperation. If a pregnant woman turns up tomorrow, is this how she will be treated. Shameful

Here’s a review you can post:
★★☆☆☆
Went to Zizzi Paddington for a quick lunch and ordered a Chorizo Carbonara and a Diet Coke. The restaurant was pretty empty, so I was surprised by the overall experience.
The carbonara was £18.95 and the Diet Coke was £4.75, bringing the food and drink to £23.70. Then an optional £2.37 team tip was added, making the total £26.07.
Nearly £24 for one pasta and a Coke feels excessive for what is ultimately a casual chain restaurant lunch, particularly when the Coke alone is almost £5. Adding the tip automatically on top also makes a very ordinary solo lunch come to over £26.
Nothing disastrous, but the value for money just isn’t there. For that price in London or around Paddington station, there are far better lunch options.
