<![CDATA[Greater London - Camden - Kings Cross - Eating, Drinking and Nightlife - Pubs - Reviews]]> http://www.welovelocal.com Reviews from welovelocal.com en Quality back street local close to Scala nightclub http://www.welovelocal.com/en/london/camden/kings-cross/pubs/king-charles-i-n19bl.html#r28458 Popped in here last Friday before a gig at the Scala having never visited before. What a treat!

The pub had 2 well-kept ales including Deuchars IPA, a quirky comfy interior (think random antiques on walls and ceiling, a Victorian fireplace and a bar billiards table - something of a pub rarity these days). There are also a handful of tables outside in this quiet side street which made for a pleasant spot for a pint in the mild weather.

The crowd was a good mix of youngsters warming up for a night out, locals and a few old boys and hippies.

I wasn't expecting that much from a pub in this area but will certainly go back if I'm in these parts again.

My only complaint is the bordering-on-comical size of the gents toilet. There's a cubicle and urinal but more than 2's certainly a crowd!
