Look, the Kings Cross area has gone from “grimy train station” to “hipster food paradise.” Bar + Block fits right in. It’s perfect for a pre-theatre dinner, a date, or just rewarding yourself for not missing your train.
Plus, the location is stupidly convenient. You can stumble out of the restaurant, hop on the Tube, and be home in twenty minutes. Or, you know, waddle. After that fondant, you’ll be waddling.
One final thought: don’t skip the Sunday Roast if you’re around. They do a proper one with Yorkshire puddings the size of your head. It’s a commitment, but a beautiful one.
So go. Eat. Drink. Leave a tip. And maybe bring a friend to split a side of truffle fries. You’ll thank me—or your jeans won’t. Either way, it’s worth it.
