Dating from 1848, the Bridge House as its name implies is adjacent to a bridge, the Horse Bridge, over the Grand Union Canal (Paddington Arm) at its junction with the Regents Canal at Little Venice.

Following a refurb in early 2024, the interior now has walls painted cream above a darkish green painted rail. Pendant lights are above above the bar counter. Note two Bass mirrors, one in the front part of the pub and one in the back part; otherwise pictures adorn the walls. The back part of the pub has intertwined, predominantly darkish green, foliage décor on the ceilings with the front ceiling darkish green but plain.

There's an extensive food menu for lunch and dinner including Sunday roasts, and a food collection or home-delivery service is also available. One cask ale is on handpump and the craft beer selection varies regularly both on tap and bottled. There are occasional brewery residencies. While it's not over intrusive there is background music and it can be turned up into the evening.

And don't forget the Canal Cafe Theatre, a separate operation above the pub: https://www.canalcafetheatre.com/

Three-storey building dating from 1848 with some pretty balustrades at first floor level.

Now a single narrow room it has three sections of ceiling each with a good cornice which may indicate it was split into three in the past. In the middle section the servery consists of a panelled bar counter that looks old with pilaster-style columns along the front. The bar back has a large plain mirror with some columns. The bar counter turns to the left in the rear section and there is another good old bar counter. Here there are old mirrors advertising Bass, and noted H D Rawlings High Class Mineral Waters. In the middle area there is a low partition in front of the toilets which is held in place by a metal stay affixed to the outside wall.

On the first floor is the Canal Café Theatre, which holds 60 and features one man shows, stand-up, cabaret and music.
