The Lighterman, King's Cross
This perfectly located pub and restaurant spans the entire edge of Granary Square on one side and Regent’s Canal on the other. Inspired by the industrial past of King's Cross, The Lighterman is a great spot to sit back, relax and watch Regent's Canal bubble along. It's a versatile location where the food and drink are pretty much neck and neck.
Menu highlights include wood-grilled meats, superfood salads, and flatbreads topped with thoughtful, seasonal combinations, teamed with fresh juices, wines by the glass, or on-trend cocktails. For a sophisticated evening out with a lover, sample The Lighterman's tasty modern British fare and tidy cocktail list, or simply work your way through a pint of cask ale by the bar. Both are heartily encouraged.
The bar is a popular spot for after-work drinks, while upstairs offers slightly more formal dining. Floor-to-ceiling windows let in an abundance of light, and it's a truly delightful space for views of the canal and beyond, especially as the sun sets. With its first-floor wraparound terrace overlooking the waterways and a canalside alfresco area, this gastropub is a worthy rival to the more established terraces on Granary Square. There are three terraces: a wraparound terrace upstairs, seating on Granary Square overlooking the fountains, and a canalside terrace.
