Description

Independently owned, the Yorkshire Grey is a Classic British Pub with a nice contemporary twist. Many over-do the twist but they appear to be spot on here. The Upstairs Lounge is apparently one one London's most sought after for all kinds of parties and holds up to 100. It does a really good Lunch trade because it does a decent simple and tasty Lunch and again the early evening Solicitors and Media folk from ITN and ITV are to be seen downing the Real Ale and Chardonay's alongside the new breed of Clerkenwell/Bloomsbury natives. Because of its ideal location and excellent bus and tube routes, it has this near Mid-Town New York feel with people coming and going but a warmth of a local London Pub. A regular Tuesday Quiz attracts quite a crew as well.
The Upstairs Lounge hosts many Book Launches,does a feast of 30th and 40th birthday parties, Engagements and weddings as well.The room is like a Dickens sitting room but with a really good Ipod Music system and Mirror ball its a gem.

My fourth visit, I think. I like this place and I can't figure out how to describe it best. My last visit was on a Friday evening with after work crowd. A big part of my work is after-work type shuffling and I find the location and service here nice and smart. I was meeting 4 contacts who were catching the 9.20 back to Leeds from Kings X and this Pub again was a good spot to catch up, have a quick bite (Yorkshire Grey Classic Burger for all)...and praise each other for a great week of sales (Not houses obviously). We sometimes meet at the George in Liverpool street...and now sometimes here. Keep an eye on this baby!

What does she mean?? "Nice Place to come if you actually want to have a conversation with your drink"
Sounds like she either had one too many or the bars empty!Answer up Rachel any other beer heads know which she means???

Quiet again on a Saturday. Had the Club s/wich which was nice. They don't do deserts. Nice place to come if you actually want to have a conversation with your drink.

I attended a party here last Saturday night in the Upstairs room while at the same time occasionally sneaking downstairs to get away from the party crew. I like this Pub because it is a no-nonsense one but in a good quality manner.The Term "Pub and Kitchen" sometimes scares me as I fear an over-done Gastro offer but this place is a Pub and Kitchen because it is that..a great Pub that does great food. I met an American group having Hamburgers and Salt beef Sandwiches in London...Oh the irony!..and they loved them. Nice feel to this place...I'd recommend it for a quietish night out.

came in here one night and have been practically a regular now. Even though its a city pub it has a feel of a nice local. Service was friendly and quick even though it was busy at the time.
