King's Cross
Where to eat and drink in King's Cross, North London. Chosen on merit by Lamplit London.
King's Cross is London's most complete reinvention: the old railway lands behind two great stations turned into a quarter of canal-side squares, where the fountains of Granary Square play in front of the Victorian grain store and Coal Drops Yard has turned its coal warehouses into shops, bars and restaurants. The Regent's Canal runs straight through, and St Pancras keeps a champagne bar beside its platforms.
Our King's Cross guides cover the best of it, from the restaurants around Granary Square and Coal Drops Yard to the grand station hotels. Chosen on merit, for a dinner before a train or a night by the canal.
