| Happy times spent here waiting for the train back to Derby - it felt more like something from there than a London pub. Not tried the replacement Betjeman Arms, but somehow I don't think it will quite match the character of this place. Still, it beats the portakabin temporary replacement on platform 12 which I guess has (thankfully) gone. OldRogue - 2 Jan 2009 11:19 |
| Note, that this has now been closed because of the St Pancreas station re-build for the channel-tunnel link and has been replaced with a like-named portakabin affair at the end of the new platforms. One assumes that this is temporary until the old station is re-opened (though that's a while off yet). stabbogaz - 2 Aug 2004 15:13 |
| Pubs on railway stations are either transient and soulless (e.g. Coopers), or expensive, aimed at the passing posh City totty (e.g. Reef Bar). In contrast, this feels like a local pub, old fashioned, dark and dingy, and might not be to the taste of people with 21st century expectations. However, I would consider this pub not to be solely for passing trade, more than just a Quicksnacks with a license. Loz - 18 Aug 2002 01:52 |
