The Neighborhood:
King’s Cross is such a vibrant part of the city - always something going on; a new restaurant to try or bar to visit.
Here are some suggestions!
Granger & Co is great for any time of the day, but they really excel at brunch. Expect queues but persevere, because it’s usually worth it.
Overlooking the fountains of Granary Square, Caravan specialises in small sharing plates. But small doesn’t mean small flavour; their food is described as well-travelled, and it’s certainly varied. Big space, great atmosphere.
Those in the know head to Mother Flipper’s market stall for burgers.
The Big Chill House is spread over several floors and a cool roof terrace and is only minutes from Kings Cross station. Pop in for craft beers and boutique gins, DJs at the weekend (it has a 3am license) and plenty of well made pub grub.
Drop into Simmons for a cocktail, as it’s only a minute’s walk from King’s Cross station. With happy hours and a weekend license until 3am, there’s no excuse not to visit this cool little retro find. Plus this year the bar goes all disco with a light up dancefloor.
Harrisons is a traditional English pub - have some pints here and maybe try a Sunday roast.
Regent’s Canal: This really is such a beautiful and special part of London, peaceful but close enough to the hustle and bustle. The canal is so tranquil - such a treat in the middle of a city to feel such quiet. And yet, just a stone’s throw away is one of the most exciting areas! Packed full of great restaurants, buzzy bars, and sights to see.
Regent’s Canal runs from Paddington to Limehouse in East London - you can walk along the towpath all the way there. It’s a great way to see the city. Alternatively, you can get a boat (there are various waterbuses) and explore that way.
There is so much to do and try around here - you’re going to have a great time exploring.
Getting Around:
Kings Cross station is a 12 minute walk away - this station has overground and underground tube and rail services. St Pancras station is also 12 minutes walk away and this station has national and international train services. There are also plenty of buses in the area, which are a great way of travelling if you like to have a peek at your surroundings as you travel. Russell Square tube station is a 9 minute walk away.
A great local tip is to download the Citymapper app. This free app will plan your journey for you efficiently and quickly. It gives you a variety of different transport options such as bike, rail, tube and Uber taxi. It will also take you step by step through your journey as you travel and notify you when you are nearing your destination.
