Picture of King

This is one of those places that's a victim of its proximity to Liverpool Street station. It gets busy lunchtimes and early evenings and then, all of a sudden, it's empty. It's a decent enough pub, though maybe a bit bland and soulless, and there really isn't any need for such harsh lighting. It serves everything you'd expect of an average City pub and does it reasonably well, but on its own doesn't add up to a great night out.

directions:
