Food: ★★★☆☆ Service:★★★★☆ Ambiance:★★★★☆ Overall: ★★★★☆. This was the second time that Pam and I were looking for a nice, not overly pricey pub near Kings Cross. The last time we gave up and settled on The Betjemans Arms, which is not cheap. It was nice enough, but we didn’t fancy going back there. So we walked on … and on … and on. Ok, it wasn’t actually that far, but I had just finished a day of Open House volunteering and was starving. STARVING I’m telling you!! And still we couldn’t agree on a pub. We stepped into several ones along the way, but either we thought they were too expensive, too much Old-Men-Pub or we couldn’t find anything on the menu we liked. Yes, we are picky.
Probably the best pub in London. Friendly service and the best selection of cider this side of the West Country. The food is above average for a kitchenless pub, too. The mixed platter is filled with carefully chosen cheeses and meats. Often the staff suggest beers to match the food. A beautiful pub with exceptional finishing touches.
Staying in the neighborhood for a few days. I’ve stopped in thrice and plan to do so again today. Exceptionally good service, great cider and beers. Love their pork pie with piccalilli, so damn good! Staff has always been welcoming and good natured. Pub decor makes you feel comfortable and invited. Of all the pubs I’ve tried in London I will miss this one the most.
