Paddington, London. not to be confused with Ye Olde Mitre in Holborn (one of my favs!), this pub was built in 1855 (1859?), a wedge shaped corner pub which gives rise to its name, with unusual rounded doors at its corner entrance. Beautiful mosaic tiling leads into the Snug Room, which at one time was for ladies only. It also has a Private Bar, and a Saloon Room that has a skylight decorated with stained glass. Downstairs is a speakeasy called "Old Mary's", named after a maid who is said to have died there tragically in the 1800s (some say her ghost still haunts the room). There is dark wood and etched glass everywhere you turn, including a gorgeous bar back. A lovely place to enjoy a Timothy Taylor's Landlord.
