Honestly, don't waste your money. There are literally dozens of other, better, friendlier places nearby. £50 for a couple of coffees, an omelette & an Eggs Benedict. Staff are rude - unwelcoming, unfriendly, and really don't care about whether you are there or not. Service charge added on for the privilege of just being there. They are basing their prices on location - a few minutes walk away you have a multitude of options. Don't waste your cash!

I only had time for coffee before my train, but had the best coffee (for my tastes, and I am quite picky!) The staff were all helpful, my drink was served promptly and courteously, I enjoyed it at a comfy seat that offered charging sockets. Little details make a lot of difference in this busy world! If you’re waiting for a train, or need somewhere to meet at Kings Cross station, I’d recommend this bar

Had breakfast here, toast, porridge freshly made with four different toppings and lovely coffee. Simply made but done well. The five stars is for the lovely relaxed morning atmosphere with soft jazz as background music. Staff were excellent without being pretentious in a high end establishment. Super chilled before our train journey.

This is a lovely bar and as you can imagine expensive. We went in for breakfast. There is a nice choice for breakfast though everything except omelette comes with bread/toast. Omelette at £11 (plus service) was tasteless sadly and served on a plate with nothing (no garnish). English breakfast looked great but black pudding cooked till it was rock hard (or perhaps stale). A disappointing and expensive breakfast. Venue is beautiful and staff good. However, they took no note of points raised re pudding or taste...or the chef did not.

Quick tea and cocktails required so we dropped in to the GNH bar. Quickly seated orders taken , drinks served up. Both of us opted for the standard burger. Which was excellent. Proper meat, good portion of chips and pickled cucumber.

Never understood why I or anyone go here the darkest most miserable place near a station you can think of . Doors to station get locked and inside becomes some sort of dimly lit pub from 1970s . Can only imagine anyone uses it for catching a train so why are they so SLOW!!! I may well be catching a train so probably don’t want to wait 20 minutes for a drink …. Go to St Pancras 100 times better

12.5% for "table service" not wanted or needed.... or even there. Sat on a high stool next to a wall for a quick drink... had to go to the bar before anyone asked what I wanted and had to go to the bar before I could pay.

This used to be called The Plum and Spilt Milk and was fabulous . The receipt on my bank statement still named it as this but it’s now GNH bar . Service by the waiter was slow and he forgot drinks inc the water . The meal took 30 mins to arrive which to be fair was only reheated so it shouldn’t have taken so long . The cheese board was abysmal and got sent promptly back . Sadly this is not as it was - more staff training required , inc kitchen and front of house .

Stopped off here to kill some time after lunch before heading to where we needed to be. Location wise, it's great. Right outside the train station. It's part of Rail restaurant I believe. We got a table right outside which was perfect for people watching and it was nice dry afternoon. Didn't have any food as we only stopped off for drinks. Service as great, each of the waiters that came out to check up on us was nice and friendly. Drinks menu was quite nice as well. Loads of cocktails to choose from as there was a full bar inside. Outside patio did offer blankets for guest when it gets chilly. You enter through double velvet drapes for the inside bar which is adorned with beautiful chandeliers. The vibe is pretty chic. Overall, nice spot for cocktails and people watching outside. Inside was nice and mellow.

Vinimos aquí para escapar del frío un domingo por la noche antes de un tren. Pedimos una copa de vino tinto y un té de limón y verbena. Tuve que preguntar un par de veces ya que el pobre barman no podía escucharnos correctamente debido a la música demasiado alta. Me sirvieron un té de jazmín. Tuve que pedir nuevamente una verbena de limón. Finalmente conseguí la verbena de limón. Cuando comenzamos nuestras bebidas, en lugar de esperar hasta que pedimos pagar, el barman nos empujó la máquina de tarjetas ordenándonos que pagáramos. Luego nos dimos cuenta de que nos habían cobrado 1 GBP. 69 'cargo por servicio discrecional'. Es muy frustrante, ya que felizmente habríamos dejado una propina mucho más grande que eso si el servicio hubiera sido mejor. Estaba claramente gruñón y el gerente me seguía dando señales de aprobación, pero él nunca vino y me preguntó cuál era el problema. Tengo la sensación de que tienen algunos problemas en este momento y que el personal simplemente no se lleva bien, ya que el barman francés parecía bastante infeliz.

I sat with a friend having a glass of wine and a catch up at about 4.30pm yesterday when suddenly the lights were dimmed and the volume turned up on the already loud rock music. I asked a passing waiter if he could turn it down again as we were trying to have a talk. He said the boss wanted it that way and there was nothing he could do. I said 'ok I'll talk to the manager' and he said 'I am the manager, the boss is the owner'. I said 'ok could you turn it down then', he said 'If you don't like it you can go drink somewhere else'. I couldn't believe my ears. I said 'What?' and he said, 'you can either go upstairs or go find somewhere else' and walked off. Never again!

Popped in for a drink to be served by a Barman, Michael, who seemed most miserable and a bit condescending to be frank. So much so when the card machine asked me to add a gratuity I made sure I didn’t, never really been asked to pay extra for a basic bar service in the UK before either. I looked at my bill this morning and I have had the pleasure of paying 12.5%!

We stopped for a coffee before boarding our train.Nice outside seating area with wall heaters.We ordered two cappuccino which on arrival were smaller than what we normally have and extortionately priced at £4.50 each then they have the cheek to add a “discretionary service charge” of 12.50% making two mediocre coffees cost £10.13! Won’t be going back, major chains far better coffee and more realistic prices, didn’t mind paying those prices in Venice but not next to train stations and taxi ranks.

I went for a drink with my brother on Monday 2 gin and tonics costing just under £12 very reasonable. However we went again the following evening before i caught my train. Ordered 2 gin and tonics £19! The receipt said 2 doubles. No way were they doubles and only one bottle of tonic shared between 2 drinks all poured in before brought to the table where we paid at the time. We would have complained but we were in a rush and too busy at the bar to complain. Shame really we certainly won't be back.

Having travelled many miles throughout our railway empire, and become more and more discouraged that our continental friends can do it so much better; this bar really is very nice. Nicely decorated inside in muted tones, and if you wish to drink outside, then the area is heated. Luggage is politely removed and ticketed. You cannot deny that all is in the upper margins for price, but I find this a lovely restful stop.

Plush surroundings, great service . We were looking for a quick drink while waiting for a train and noticed this calm oasis in the hustle and bustle of Kings Cross Station. We nipped upstairs to the Martini rooms and enjoyed a lively, peppery Cotes de Rhone with some nibbles: excellent aged comte, mixed meats and parmesan courgette fries. All liberally smothered in truffle oil. While we were on a tight turnaround from Edinburgh to London by train this made us feel we had experienced a tiny bit of London lifestyle. Wine served at excellent temperature in clear elegant glasses. Cozy sofas and artsy art on the walls. A tiny bit of luxury in a busy business day.

On entering this slightly claustrophobic bar beside the platforms at kings Cross station, I was quickly greeted and found a table. However, service thereafter proved fairly slow. On the plus side, the ambience was OK and it's a better offering than one of the draughty outlets on the balcony that overlooks the concourse. I ordered lamb kofta, which came with cardboard pitta bread and a small bucket of cold fries (these were replaced without fuss when requested). It's not that its bad, its just another fairly disinterested London establishment that provides poor quality over-priced refreshments for people passing through. If you have to use up half an hour before your train then its OK but certainly don't seek it out as anything special

We called in for a drink before getting our train. It's quite a dark atmosphere, OK but not easy to find seats. Staff unhelpful and you aren't allowed to get service at the bar so have to wait for them to get round to taking your order, then 10-15 minutes to get a glass of wine. We had their "two-for-one" Malbec - perhaps as well, as £7 is pretty outrageous for quite poor quality wine. I think we'll go to Pret for a cup of tea next time!

I popped in for a quick beer on a Friday evening to as it's located just outside the main entrance to Kings Cross station. Outside were plenty of small tables (Parisian style) with plenty of people relaxing with their drinks. There are outdoor heaters but they didn't need to be on. They also have a polite security presence on the door to the internal bar. Inside, there is seating for about 35 people. The décor is nice - brown wood and red with a mirrored ceiling and 2 glass chandaliers which make the place feel quite luxurious. The Bar itself is small - however - manned by 4 people so no wait for a drink! They don't do corona style bottled beers so I had a London lager for £5.50, Whilst waiting, I saw a barman making a cocktail - very classy work indeed. Lots of attention to detail using wafer thin lemon slices, I didn't have one but he did a fine job and next time I will be tempted. Also, further attention to detail - my barman used ice to pre cool my glass before pouring the beer. Very professional work indeed. The atmosphere was nice. 80's music played in the background and the place had a nice feel to it. I didn't head to the restaurant upstairs, but the toilets downstairs were immaculate, even on a Friday evening. So thumbs up for service, style and atmosphere and a very nice evening drink.

I have used the GNH Bar on and off since it opened, almost always whilst waiting for a train at Kings X. It's the nicest bar in the station, and should aspire to be a great experience for those heading to the north and Scotland on one of Britain's premier intercity rail routes. A recent visit however highlighted how far away from meeting this aspiration the place is. First of all, they have a crazy "no luggage" policy whereby they insist even the smallest case, even if (as we were) you are sitting outside has to be checked. And of course, trying to retrieve your case is a nightmare - eventually, with our departure time fast approaching, I had to chase my luggage down from a clueless waiter who was asking people sitting inside if it was theirs. Another guest was having a similar problem. The bar was not busy at this time. Furthermore, they have no draught beer on tap, just bottles. Finally, they don't accept children after 6pm. My advice is - if you want a chilled drink before your train from KX head to the Betjeman Arms or Champagne Bar in St Pancras (or even The Booking Office). All three are far more pleasant places to visit.

Our experience at the GNH bar is similar to what others share. My friend is a gin drinker. She knows her gin. (I'm a bourbon girl myself, but when in Rome...) We were waiting for our train and she had seen GNH featured in one of her gin magazines. We stopped in for cocktails. To be clear, for being a gin bar, the gin selection didn't blow me away and only two of their signature cocktails included gin. I opted for the Blue Velvet and my friend ordered the Gin Mare. Both cocktails were truly lovely. The violet foam atop the Blue Velvet could almost stand on it's own as an amazing delight.

My friend and I were going to have a cocktail in here. Looked to be a lovely venue. However a member of staff came and said they had a luggage policy and he would need to take our luggage away and put somewhere else, and put a luggage sticker on it. As we didn't want there to be any delay in getting our luggage back as we had a train to catch, we decided just to go elsewhere. However when we went outside there were loads of other people outside WITH THEIR LUGGAGE BESIDE THEM. We felt we should have been informed of this. And been given the option to sit outside as there plenty of empty seats. !!!However it was their loss as we would have had a cocktail each and they lost out on £24.!!! Will definitely not be back. Felt it could have been handled a lot better.

My only criticism is that the toilets were a bit of a trek down to the basement and with dodgy knees I found it difficult. To be fair, not sure if they had a lift because I never asked. I saw food being delivered to others that looked delicious but never tried it myself. Worth a visit if you are in the area.

But the service is a little slow considering the prices are a premium

Lovely helpful staff, got stuck at kings cross after cycling accident, they stored my bike free of charge, had a good quality pot of tea & best Welsh rarebit ever, would recommend for weary travellers

Parece un poco pijo e intimidante, pero el personal es estupendo y muy atento.

Muebles bonitos, en la explanada de Kings Cross. Pedimos una cerveza mientras nos sentamos en el bar. Todo el camarero tenía que hacer era coger una botella de la nevera, abrirla y verter en una copa. No tener que mover ni un centímetro. Así un ya caro (5 libras) pequeña botella de cerveza un 62 p cargo por el servicio de unos 10 segundos de trabajo.

Nice atmosphere inside, well trained staff and choices of alcohol that you don't get in most pubs, well worth a try though, had England game on several screens when we need a pre-train journey home drink and it was worth it.

Popped in for a drink whilst staying at the hotel. The bar itself is nice, serving expensive drinks and reasonably priced food. The service is poor - after ordering from a table we had to wait 15 minutes for one of the numerous bar staff on a relatively quiet evening to serve us. A real ‘can’t be bothered’ attitude which is detrimental to the rest of the hotel and which is yet to be addressed despite several tripadvisor contributors making similar comments.

We had a business meeting in the up stairs restaurant. The menu was very nice, good portion and great value. The atmosphere is very good and the staffs is friendly. I will take back client at these restaurant.

I have been to this bar before while waiting for my train. The inside is very nice and drinks are good but this time was not a good experience. The price for the drinks have increased and the staff were not friendly. My partner and I waited at the bar for 10 minutes waiting to be served, there are five male staff members behind the bar who saw us and completely ignored us. Once we did get served, the bartender had an bad attitude towards my partner which made us feel uncomfortable.

We are staying in the hotel for 10 days (revue to follow). The day we flew from the States, we went straight to the bar to celebrate our arrival. My wife had her customary vodka, soda, extra lime. I had the ahau chamahez (El Jimador blanco, chilli, lime, guacamole, coriander, olive bitters and soda). Small plates: rosemary salt fries, padron peppers, miniature pork, chilli and fennel meatballs in tomato sauce, and the Dorset crab and crushed avocado on sourdough toast. I had a second drink, The Bloody Hell: vodka, spicy mix, lemon, sweet cherry, tomato and beetroot.

Booked a table for lunch. We were disappoint to see an expensive pub with mediocre food and small portions. Nothing special at all.

£7.80 for two x 200ml lime and soda waters. Says it all really. Avoid unless you have more money than sense

A menos que estés increíblemente rico, un infierno. El lugar es muy bonito y ordenado. Se llevan su equipaje para gratis. No hacer pintas. No botellas por £5. 60! ! ! Sí, Te escuchamos. Ir al bar en el otro extremo de la parte de arriba de la estación. Es la mitad de precio.

AM visit - arrived and ordered breakfast just before 11am cut off. Very helpful staff, no delay, food (Irish potato cake/bacon/eggs @£12) delicious. Not overly busy. As a note: I did not have bags/suitcase. Read the reviews and can only jump to conclusion - like all London venues - finding quality staff for all shifts is hard. The team on right now are great...

Delicious food and attentive and friendly staff. A bit noisy from the Music but soon got used to it!

So from the outside with the italian decorated venue you do not realise what kind of nice place is inside...

Parece muy bonito desde fuera, pero no tan bien en el interior. Servicio lento aparte de llevar su equipaje, nos hicieron sentir incómodos que nos habíamos atrevido a llevar en una maleta, extraño cuando es un hotel adjunto a una estación, así que la mayoría de la gente tenía equipaje, cuando estás allí sólo por un café rápido, no estoy seguro de por qué insisten en hacerlo. Hay mejor lugar alrededor que elegiría antes de aventurarse aquí

Didnt pop up in search but so glad I stopped. Lovely welcome and good choice of sandwiches, jacket potatoes or sweet treats. I enjoyed a good cappuccino and panini. The address on TripAdvisor needs updating as not London but nearest city is High Wycombe!

fantastic sunday lunch and reasonably priced for the area. Service was lovely, food was tasty and fresh with lots of flavour and arrived in good time. Choice on menu was also great.
