There’s lots of good pubs in London, but if you’re arriving at King’s Cross you don’t need to leave the station to find one. Tucked away at the back it has lots of hand pumps / seats & free toilets !

SubtleBlade

Head deep inside to the bar as you reach it turn to your right and then back on yourself and grab a seat in the covered yard. 2nd best station pub after The Station Tap on Platform 1 of Sheffield Stn.

Thomas Kingston

Excellent food and beer . Plenty of seating ranging from bar style to a comfy lounge setting and a dining room overlooking the platforms . Fully recommend the burger !

Francesco de Virgilio

Never thought a so nice and cozy place would have been in a so big train station , nice beers and a massive amount of space and tables, some of them with a view on the departing trains .

Tine De Cnodder

A great peaceful escape from the hussle & bussle of King’s Cross station ! A beautiful pub with nice cosy rooms and great food! The staff was very friendly ! We will remember this place!

Brendan Gardiner

Great station pub , with bags of character. Ideal if you get to the station early, with snacks meals and drinks at standard London prices. Friendly service .

James Nugent

Usually pubs in a station are dreadful but this is a great pub by any standards. Great selection of beers , original station memorabilia and cavernous rooms to explore.

Tom Woolverton

Outside of the rush hour periods, this is a really nice spot to spot for a drink if passing through the station (the toilet is also nicer than the station one!).

Bryn Morgan

If you are travelling from Kings Cross and intend to have a pint, do it here. Great pub . Expensive (you get what you pay for), but isn't everything in a train station , especially the ticket office ...

Ally Steele

Best station pub I've ever been to. Great selection of beers and tasty grub as well . Worth arriving early for your train to have a cold one.

Ceara Pixie

Great for a cheeky bev before getting a train or to meet a friend. There are lots of table, you never struggle to find a seat.

Michael Kalman

Reliable burgers and Aspall on tap . Wont set the world on fire but it's good and the railway decor most appropriate

Kavita Gajjar

Craft beer on tap , lots of space. Can get extremely busy around 5/6.

Geoff Eadson

Fine beers in an interesting building. A little oasis away from the bustle of Platform 9 3/4

Stephen Crocker

Fast, friendly service and very tasty fish & chips . Free WiFi also very handy. Good view of the platforms and some areas have departure screens.

Jo Grout

Good selection of beers in a nice atmosphere. Also, save yourself 30p by using the (nicer) toilets in here rather than the main station ones!

Nick George

Cool little spot in King's Cross with a great selection of wine and food.

Alistair

Pretty good for a station pub . Good drinks selection and decent food. They even sent a voucher for a free drink next time.

Harry Roberts

A really, surprisingly great bar . Plenty of nice space to make use of whilst waiting for your train .

Geraint Jones

Surprisingly classy - very pleasant place to kill time before a train . Free wifi and bazillions of power points.

Guy Griffiths

Decent ale selection , head upstairs to the Loft Bar ; surprisingly light & airy.

Martin Richardson

Almost nice enough to consider coming here even if you weren’t waiting for a train . Almost.

Dougie Shirlaw

If downstairs is busy head upstairs to The Loft Bar for a more relaxed experience.

Will Hargrave

Lovely pub , regardless of station location. Head up to the top floor if you want some quiet .

Roz Thomas

Lovely pub considering it's in a station. Lots of nooks and crannies to hide away in.

Alex Baulch

The function rooms hidden at the back are fantastic, especially the one with the Metallica pinball machine

Documentally

A hidden gem . Best part of kings cross. Well designed with some lovely beers .

Chris R (thechristophe)

Not a bad spot for a beer and a catch up. Decent if waiting for a train and separate dining area if you don't want to feel like you're eating in a pub .

Plwm Bwm

Nice relaxing place to drink before a train journey. Burger is good. Fish and chips is a little bit too greasy

Michael Holdsworth

Great pub , some cracking cask ale on.

Alastair Hilton

Got to be the best pub in a station anywhere? Actually a decent place for a drink, even if you're not catching a train

Chris Constantine

Other than the price of ale , this pub makes waiting for a train a pleasure. Tip: Guzzle a few pints of Fullers here and miss your train .

Dave Moffat

Pretty good for a station pub . Don't take up the table service, just queue at the bar , or you will be waiting twice as long for your drinks

Ed

Worth registering for the free wifi , they email you the next day with a voucher for a free pint.

Guy Griffiths

The Loft Bar , great airy space. Doesn't feel like a station pub at all!

Dougie Shirlaw

Can highly recommend the crayfish scotch egg and courgette fritters . Delish.

Kim Pham

Huge pub in King's Cross station. Great function rooms for larger parties.

Sarah Davies

Loverly little pub in the station, hidden away- quickly forget about the nutters on the underground

Michael Underhill

Interesting pub . Worthy of whiling away an hour or two before your train leaves

Zach Stockwell

Great pub ! Very impressive atmosphere for a station-based pub .

Kevin Marks

Great range of beers and lots of good table space.

Stuart Hillston

Head upstairs, fabulous open and airy bar , good to eat, good Fullers , a gem!

Billy Sayers

Fullers beers and guest ales , very nice for a railway station pub .

lesley

Nice place to relax while waiting for the train

Jackie Brown

Very decent pub for a train station . Lots of space and quick service .

Andrea S.

Friendly staff ,good beers.A peaceful place in Kings Cross station .

Natasha Venditti

You must try the strawberry/lime cider !! It's is sweet sparking refreshing goodness.

Edoardo de Pantz

Great meeting point for a business meeting.

Elizabeth B

Great atmosphere. Aspall cyder on tap ! Not many food choices for people who don't eat mammals, though.
