I can't place a "former ticket hall, which provides direct access to the Bakerloo line". If anything, the one I'm thinking of on the Eastbourne Terrace side would be closer to the District line.

Bear and Bishop might take a beating.
And will we be still able to buy tickets from a human?

From Evening Standard
JD Wetherspoon is planning to open a huge new pub at Paddington Station as it continues its expansion across London’s major transport hubs.
The proposed venue would occupy more than 3,600 sq ft across two floors, including a mezzanine level, and would take over three units in the station’s former ticket hall, which provides direct access to the Bakerloo line.
If approved, it would be larger than the company’s recently opened Captain Flinders pub at Euston and slightly smaller than The Lion and The Unicorn at Waterloo.
