Proper old fashioned gay pub… friendly locals and bar staff.

·

Clean room, friendly staff but kettle had filament debris (so no hot drinks) and no-one seemed around for Saturday breakfast

·

Clean bedroom, fabulous location Staff friendly, Guy was very welcoming and food was excellent, Sam's kitchen is so tasty! Try it you won't be disappointed and price is not bad either

Found by accident whilst trying to get a seat for the Euro 2020 England Germany Game. The location tucked around the corner from Kings Cross meant that it wasn't busy. All the cleanliness controls were in place with ample oppertunities for servce which was swift and friendly. Couple of TVs placed as best they could given the layout. Served Heineken too, which is a nice change in this day & age. Nice pub. Thanks.

Manager /supervisor here started ordering me round the pub when I tried to eat here.I specifically ordered food to a quiet back table, only to get the manager ordering me to a table right in front of where they were about to start open mic tests for a later event. And then the rest of the staff complaining at me that I moved positions...(On bright side, singer seemed good, but too much for me when I was trying to get some food to stop a migraine!)

I really wanted to like this hotel. The staff were very friendly and welcoming, though the rooms left a little to be desired. There was foul food/sewage smell coming from the tiny bathroom. Shower was smaller than what you’d find in an RV. The bed was not very comfortable.

Great friendly vibe in the place - staff are incredibly friendly and relaxed and the atmosphere is always good. The food can be a bit hit-or-miss, but if you're just going for drinks with friends then you can have a great time.Downstairs is very naughty. Not for the casual passer-by.

Nice little bar, friendly atmosphere and bar staff were also welcoming. It was a cold night and we sat near a "live" fire place - cosy & warm. Bar service was quick. We went at a quiet time, on the way to the theatre, so there wasn't a show on, but we hear the shows are good. We passed by later and saw it was much busier with a performer on stage. We will return...

The pub had a very nice rooftop area and was very cozy. Since it was close to king's cross station, the pub was easy to find and travel to. The food was high grade but expensive. the people there were friendly. i went to a board game event and enjoyed myself and im grateful to the staff for allowing it as an event. There were three bathrooms, ladies and gentlemen downstairs and unisex upstairs so its very inclusive. The unisex bathroom was very clean. Overall I had a good time and I'd recommend going.

One of my favourite bars when I visit London. Have to admit I have a nostalgic soft spot for the place. One of the first London gay bars I visited in 90's when a group of us visited after a Marc Almond concert. What a night, Years later some of the nights in the Underground Bar, probably some of the best I've ever had. Zero attitude from management and staff. When I was there last, the place could have done with some updating, but quite frankly that is part of the charm. Not been so much lately as I no longer live in London, but I'm glad its survived the gentrification of the area. Clearly adjustments have been made, as Kings Cross is not the place it once was. Not tried the B&B facilities but seem very reasonably priced and competitive. Just to declare an interest here. I worked the door and coat check at CS, not for Martin and Duncan directly, but for one of the promoters renting the cellar bar. Bye the way, the review left below 3 years ago by Alan Roberts is unfair. He is a club promoter who left this venue and has issues. Martin and Duncan who run this venue are two of the nicest people in this business, and long may they continue!
