This is a fairly quiet and comfortable pub not far from Kings Cross, with a local crowd enjoying its traditional atmosphere. A nice pint of Special is to be had (all of the Young's range is usually on offer) and they do food all day too - including a hearty Sunday roast. There's also an upstairs bar which is available to hire. This is a fine pub and if you're in the area, give it a look in. We're just hoping it's not on the list of pubs to be "fixed" in Wells and Young's latest spasms of pub regeneration.
