JD Wetherspoon
JD Wetherspoon has opened its newest pub at 5 Merchant Square, right in the heart of Paddington Basin, once the bustling terminus of the Grand Junction Canal. Surrounded by history, from Sir Alexander Fleming’s discovery of penicillin at Queen Mary’s Hospital to the Basin’s days of canal trade, the new pub offers Wetherspoon’s signature mix of affordable food, wide-ranging drinks, and a welcoming space for the community.

Named after the eminent physician Sir Alexander Fleming who discovered Penicillin.
