About This Pub
Ah, The Railway in Greenford is one of those pubs that really grows on you – it's got that classic charm mixed with a buzzing, lively feel that's just inviting. From what I've gathered from the reviews and a peek at their site, the staff, especially the manager Jake, go above and beyond to make sure everyone has a good time, with speedy service and genuine smiles that make you want to linger. The food stands out too; people rave about the excellent quality and generous portions, whether it's a hearty burger or a sweet dessert, all at prices that won't leave you shocked. It's brilliant for watching live sports like the Women's Euros or the Lions tour, and with extras like free Wi-Fi and accessible facilities, it's thoughtful for all sorts. But let's be honest, it's not flawless – the online ordering can strip away some of that personal pub banter, and sorting out the car park registration feels like an unnecessary step that might frustrate you on arrival. Still, with an overall rating hovering around 4.2 and plenty of glowing feedback, I'd say it's well worth a visit for a relaxed evening out, as long as you go in with realistic expectations.

I had a fantastic experience at The Railway Bar! The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, with a perfect mix of classic charm and friendly local vibes. The staff were attentive and genuinely hospitable, making sure we were comfortable throughout. The drinks were well-priced and poured just right, and the music added a great energy without being too loud. Whether you're stopping in for a quick pint or spending an evening with friends, The Railway Bar is a spot you’ll want to come back to. Highly recommended!
Fantastic experience with excellent friendly service from Jake. Service was speedy and the quality of food was excellent and tasty. Portions were of a good size and the establishment was clean and very welcoming. Very highly recommended and will return on future visits to London. Thank you Jake (from the guy who couldn't work out the English coins). You were awesome.
Amazing guy Jake the manager. Couldn't ask for a better host. He himself works hard to provide a super service and his staff deliver with a smile. Happy place. Great place to spend our evenings especially Friday evenings with mates. KeepSmiling 😊🌺
We've been coming to the Railway 26 years and have seen changes , but over the past 2 years (roughly) the food ,the staff have been great, tonight we were there ,had burgers , they were so tasty ,can't fault them, desserts were lovely too , had a good chat with the manager , who was very organised etc...abd wants the best for the pub, good to hear.
Looking forward to our next meal there, definitely will be going to the tributes as well ,thankyou.
We had a great day and ended up in The Railway restaurant.
The food was excellent, the service was good. The Ambiente is what we searched for, a British Pub.
One star less for the online order system, leading to the fact, we talked with nobody.
We came to learn about UK, the language etc. and this is only possible while interacting with human beings.
Please stop the online menues, fording us to the smart phones again, please sent a nice waiter to to talk to.
