Historical version 1 of Queen's Head, WC1X 9NB (view current version)

  • Address: 66 Acton Street, WC1X 9NB

Pub near King's Cross/Bloomsbury with a remarkably good smoking area.

I visited it late Jan./early Feb. 2008. I thought the smoking area was an internal room at first, but on wondering why they had decking indoors I realised it's a well-disguised patio. There are benches, ashtrays, heating, lighting, and the "ceiling" is actually an awning stretched to virtually meet the walls. One wonders if it is even legal.

Adnams Bitter (not Broadside) £2.70 - was OK.

Food served Mon-Fri (12.00-15.00, 17.00-21.00). Burger & chips £4.95, plus a variety of other food: fish & chips, pizza, CTM etc.

Beware of darts if male or a smoker.
