Great place, warm, friendly staff, great for people watching, and let's face it, there is always something to watch in kings cross. Drink price is the normal that you would pay anywhere else maybe even a little cheaper. Three levels, live music on weekends, good lunch food but can take a while to get to ya if busy
Best service from Daniel!! Great at making cocktails and super friendly. 5 stars! He made us tourists feel really welcome xx
5* for a place you don't really like? 5* for a non merivale pub? This is a solotel pub...who? Bruce Solomon is the quiet achiever of our pub scene...the sheaf and the Opera Bar are 2 of this countries biggest, and just 2 of his yuuuge stable. They have things in common. Efficiency on steroids, decent eats and something community orientated. Here, it's the kings cross theatre. It's a wonderful, small theatre company, showcasing our best new talent. Go there! Also contributing to the 5* review was this unexpectedly excellent spinach Dahl, rich with curry leaves and great complexity. The paratha bread was flaky and in good shape. The ability to add stuff, in this case a perfectly boiled egg, has started me thinking this annoying order via app from your table thing has legs.
Thanks Bruce. I still really don't like this place, and you should serve food for as long as you serve booze, but the plusses really work.
