Beany Green's kiosk outside Euston Station is part of The Junction, a recently launched street food project. The setup involves a selection of three traders at a time, with rotations scheduled every 6 - 12 months. A welcome change from the usual volatility of street food joints - and you might well call me biased, as I'm quite the Beany Green fan. I happen to travel from Euston for work quite often, and given how much I like the Paddington and Broadgate branches, I'm absolutely delighted to have discovered one more location I can visit while on my weekly wanderings.
Quite unusually, considering that the space they trade in is rather small (no sit-down meals here, although there's plenty of benches in the piazza), they offer a fairly wide selection of food as well as takeaway hot and cold drinks. You can pick pre-packed fruit and yoghurt pots from the fridge, or have one made to order from the counter (I'd recommend doing this, as you'll be able to add in Beany Green's granola too - and that alone will make your day). Savoury wraps live alongside a few of Beany Green's signature sweet treats, including brownies and banana bread. The quality is on par with what you'd find at the permanent branches; you'll struggle to find food so wholesome and fresh at any of the chain cafes within Euston station, and the coffee has a smooth taste that will ease you into your morning routine in the gentlest possible way.
While I write this, I have no idea how much more time the Beany Green kiosk will be there for; all I can say is that it must have been there for around two months now, given that The Junction launched on 11 June. So if you're travelling to or from Euston, or just having a stroll in the area, make sure you try it while you can.
Dead as can be on a Friday evening at 11:30 pm. Truly just a sports bar. Busy when Premier League, Six Nations or Champions League matches are on but otherwise you can easily find yourself one of less than a handful of customers.
My favorite place in town for watching football on the weekend. Be mindful there's no food but they give you peanuts to munch on
