The pub we used to go to after work has now been vacated in favour of the Harrison - a gem of a pub tucked away in Kings Cross, you can almost forget you are in Kings Cross! Can't believe we wasted so many evenings drinking elsewhere when the Harrison is friendly, serves decent wine (which is rare) and beer AND does great food. We shall be back....(often!)

Hidden pub around Kings Cross. Probably wants to be a student pub and is trying to get a live music license.
Lacks atmosphere due to little decoration. Could make an effort.Beer not up to much.

Another back street haven away from the KingsX flea pits around the train station. Food was very scrummy if a touch tardy in arriving. Place had a slight student union feel about it, that is probally just the furniture. Very pleasant place to spend an evening

I kinda like this place. Definitely the bar end of the pub-bar spectrum; all light wood and leather. Nice and airy.

I suggest erring towards lager rather then your ale/bitter types. As has been pointed out below the larger is generally 'premium'. Staff are generally helpful and friendly. My experience of the food is generally positive. Again its more bar styled then pub-grub: better ingredients, smaller portions, higher prices.

The music is generally quiet and inoffensive. Say Air or one of those types. They tend to have a copy of the Guardian on the bar. Whilst this may not seem relevant to a pub review I'd say there is probably a loose correlation between the level of disdain one feels for the Guardian and the level of disdain one feels the Harrisons. I kinda like the Gruaniad.

It does close quite randomly for parties or some such things. So its worth having a backup plan.
