A short walk from Kings Cross/St Pancras, this simply furnished corner pub of stripped wood and tables occupied by after-work regulars enjoys considerable local status for being a smart but unpretentious spot for a decent pint and a natter.
Expect a good range of real ale, live music a couple of times each week and decent gastropub fare – including a well-regarded Sunday roast. And if you really can't bring yourself to leave? There are rooms upstairs, too.
