Description
A distinctive and personalised venue which retains some characterful wood fittings. Small and intimate with a fireplace and live music, along with compact but decent assortment of ales. Only a short walk from Kings Cross but you’ll find local life and decent value here. This may be on account of it being nicely hidden away around a corner, therefore a place for those in the know rather than passing trade from tourists. Lovely unpretentious atmosphere not unlike a Belgian brown café.
