It is on the canal and a short walk away! Outside seating. There is another Starbucks inside of Paddington station if you can't make it to the canal.

Good local pizza on the canal in "Little Venice" lovely walk and outside seating. It is a chain, so purists would snub it, but in terms of proximity and nice water view, this is your place.
