Undergoing a bit of a refurb on the outside, we can't say the inside's changed in years (although the Double Diamond and Tolly Cobbold ale taps have both gone); it's a bit of a time capsule from about 30 years ago. That's not necessarily a bad thing, as the staff and the locals are friendly enough. With tellies spread about the place, sport's a big deal here, but then so is live music and the darts team. It's a traditional boozer, through and through, and unapologetically so. There's a couple of ales on the taps, kids are apparently allowed in and on warm days the walls fold back to allow a cool breeze to enter the pub. You could do worse and if it sounds like your cup of tea, maybe you should head there now.

For a pub near Kings Cross, its one of the best. Definitely worth a visit. Decent people, very nice staff. Worth a pint or two in here.
