A large Wetherspoon pub opened in early September 2024 in The Sidings part of Waterloo railway station on the site of the old Eurostar terminal.

Its name comes from that of the Lion & The Unicorn Pavilion in the nearby 1951 Festival of Britain attraction with a lion and a unicorn seen then as "symbols of Britain’s character". 12 handpumps in two banks each of 6.

Alcohol is not served until 9am each day.
