    scampi and chips
    Yvonne D.

    This place was recommended to us by a tour guide. We asked where we could get delicious fish and chips. He told us to go to his local Irish bar and get some Guinness. We didn't know it was a chain until we saw a few more later on our trip but it's still a good place to go. + Nice location - close to Kings Cross station + Good food - just look at the pictures! + Great prices (at lunch time) and good portions; very filling. Highly recommended!

    The food is hit or miss, but it's a good spot for groups- plenty of brews, lots of tables and TVs, and most booths have outlets for charging your devices. We tried a few beers and shared the bangers and mash and a sticky toffee pudding. Bangers exceeded expectations and had a solid accompanying gravy, but the STP went unfinished- their version is plated in a pool of custard and drizzled with an artificial-tasting toffee sauce that was just way too sweet. Between three of us, none could take more than a bite.

    I was in a bit of a rush and wanted to mark Kings Cross of the list of pubs to visit (even though there is actually one inside the station, though I didn't go and look for it). This is basically one of those chain pubs, and the thing that makes me like it even less is that they don't even give it an original name. Well, at least you know what you are going to get when you come here, so it does have one benefit over chain pubs that tend to keep the original names. It also means that if you see it, and you don't like chain pubs, then you can go somewhere else (though as I had mentioned I didn't have much time, and this is a pub, so it suited me just fine). As for a pub it was okay, nothing hugely fantastic, but then again I was starting to feel that way about a lot of London's pubs. Hey, at least it serves beer, though the problem is that it happens to be English Beer.

    Double southern fried chicken burger

    Acceptable food at a good price just across the road from King's Cross station. Such a better option than staying in the hustle and bustle of the train station. Food is on the better side of average, though you can tell there's a certain reliance on microwaves and deep fat fryers. The Southern Fried Chicken I had tasted good, was very hot, but a tad greasy. Great value though especially considering central London location. Double southern fried chicken breast burger and a pint of lager cost just over £10. Service was surprisingly quick.

    Super stacked mixed grill

    Myself and a couple of famished friends frequented this bar after an exhausting day in the hopes of grabbing some grub before heading home. It was 10pm and we were slightly worried we may have missed the kitchen, but they serve food until 11pm!! Huzzah! There's plenty of seating here with great spaces for groups, for anyone considering visiting with a group. The food prices are really good, I opted for a super stacked burger and beer, which had EVERYTHING in it; grilled portobello mushroom, beef burger, sausages, bacon and an egg. This cost just over £11, absolute bargain. It wasn't a michelin meal by any means of the word but the portions sizes were great and you can't beat the value for money. The menu is huge, so if you're dying of starvation and like me are unable to make your mind up in such circumstances, then you're going to struggle. Their menu is akin to spoons in sense of variety, albeit a few more fancy sounding bits. Great selection for vegetarians out there. I only know this because I was with one, personally I go straight to the meat sections, but hey ho. The staff here are also all really lovely, super helpful and smiles all round. Would definitely go again and recommend it.

    After visiting Shakespeare's Globe across the Thames River, I was rushing to the airport and…read morespotted this place near St. Paul's church after crossing Millennium Bridge. Given the location, I knew it was probably a tourist trap and I wish to avoid those usually but had no time so stopped in on a Monday afternoon for lunch. I'm so glad I did! I was in London only briefly and had yet to try proper fish and chips and I was definitely WOW'd. I've only had this in America, and this was definitely better than anything I've ever had. When it arrived on my table, I could feel the heat from the plate -- that's how scalding hot and fresh it was, and I loved that! The cod was absolutely massive, a thick portion of fish deep fried with the skin on within an incredibly crunchy beer batter. There were pieces of bone in it, but no bother, this only made it seem more fresh. The chips (thick cut fries) were perfectly crispy and both the fish and chips were insanely delicious with a bit of salt and malt vinegar (which I had to request by walking up to the bar). The dish came with a tartar sauce and ketchup, but tasted way better with the salt and vin. I absolutely love that the fish and chips also came with mushy peas, whereas most pubs only give you fish and chips alone. The dish was also very well priced at 9.95 GBP, and I was able to use my credit card, rounded up to 10 GBP because they have a 10 GBP minimum for using cards. I appreciate that this restaurant had free wi-fi, which I found out by asking my waiter, who quickly provided the secret code for me to use. In America you would never ask your server for this but I noticed that nearly every hotel and restaurant I visited during my 11-day tour of Europe offered wi-fi. Good on them, because how else would I check in to a restaurant on Yelp and shower them with praise and circulate promotional foodie photos on Instagram? During a weekday, many workers nearby flood this place to grab a pint during lunch....now, why don't I work in London? I would give this place five stars based on the food alone, but I am giving it four because I wished the service had been more attentive, as I had to go up to the bar to get malt vinegar and also to ask to pay my bill. I understand service in Europe is more laissez-faire than in America, but since this is a tourist spot I would have liked to be checked on by the staff at least once during my meal, and certainly to be presented with the bill. Note: They also serve Sunday roast dinner for 9.95 GBP on Sundays

    Great location, great specials and great service. This is a solid pub that seems to attract a good…read morecrowd. Being from the states I am not as familiar with all the UK brands --- but they seem to offer a wide variety of beers (lots on tap) and cocktails. TIP: I recommend hitting this place before 5:30 on the weekdays as the happy hour crowd fills this join up.

    We had passed this pub several times, as it is located on a common route to the hotel we were…read morestaying in, and we wanted to have our first London pub experience, so try it, we did. We arrived just after the work day, and the crowd was buzzing just outside. We did the self-seating option indoors, and sat down to a great view of the Thames river, as we pondered our meal choices from the menu. The location is just great. For a leadoff drink, I had to go with the house cask ale, which was the Fuller's ESB, a drink I've been enjoying since the 1990's, and it delivered as expected. I went with an order of Sausages with mashed potatoes and peas...it doesn't get much more classic than that, and I was happy with it, especially with the quantity (3 sausages!). Wifey was on the hunt for a meat pie, and she went with the Steak, Ale & Mushroom Pie, which I can report was wholeheartedly approved. One of the better pies we've had on the overall trip, and the best we had at a pub location. The overall vibe of this pub is exactly as you might picture it, and we weren't disappointed with any aspect. Service, though not overly patient (hey - they were busy), was competent and pleasant. Cheers!

    Great pub in the City of London. Found it while walking near the River front after crossing north…read moreover London Bridge. Casks, drafts, lots of seating - both indoor and outdoor. They had billiards and some other entertainment. Quick service.
