The Best King's Cross Restaurants You Must Try
Over the past few years, King’s Cross has been involved in extensive redevelopment plans and has rapidly turned into one of London’s foodie hotspots. Here are the best restaurants in King’s Cross you must eat at.
1. Camino
Bar, Restaurant, Spanish, Tapas
Camino offers the finest in Spanish cuisine, and the restaurant’s design caters to group dining, making it great for dinner with friends or an after work trip to the bar. Their seasonal tapas from Nacho del Campo boasts the best local and Spanish produce, including an exquisite selection of the best Spanish charcuterie. Unlike many Spanish restaurants, Camino has a variety of dishes for vegetarians, such as the mouth-watering empanadillas. Be sure to try a dish from The Charcoal Grill, which is imported from the Basque country to capture the authentic taste of Northern Spain. With a great choice of refreshing Spanish craft beers, an award-winning wine list and a stunning menu, Camino is the best spot in King’s Cross for a truly Spanish feast.
2. Caravan King’s Cross
Cafe, Restaurant, British
Located next door to the Grain Store, Caravan boasts an innovative menu that draws influence from food around the world and uses seasonal ingredients. This King’s Cross restaurant has a great selection of small plate dishes, such as coconut lime chicken, and a range of pizzas exclusive to the King’s Cross branch of Caravan including the unconventional moos green pepperoni with burnt pepper, black olive and smoked scamorza. The fabulous food proves that there’s much more to Caravan than its iconic coffee, which is made fresh in the coffee roastery at Caravan’s first site, Exmouth Market.
