About The Boot

The Boot is an Irish pub at 116 Cromer St in London, a short walk from King's Cross, Euston and St Pancras stations. It opens daily. The games room has a pool table and a dart board, and the TV does not show football, so the focus stays on the games and the conversation. The bar offers a wide selection of beers, with a choice on tap. On Sundays the kitchen serves a roast, with roast potatoes made fresh in the morning rather than from frozen. Tables are available for larger parties as well as small ones.

Customer Review Summary

Friendly staff and service are what reviewers mention most, with the bar staff described as helpful, courteous, attentive and welcoming. Close behind is the beer, with several praising a good selection and plenty of choice on tap, and one calling the drinks very reasonably priced. One reviewer singles out the Sunday roast, describing roast potatoes made fresh rather than from frozen, a generous portion and plenty of meat. Several others say they did not eat and cannot comment on the food. Reviewers describe a proper old fashioned Irish local with a pool table and dart board, no football on the TV on match days, and outside seating on a sunny, quiet street. One reviewer calls it slightly shabby and another says it has no frills. A group of visitors from Germany watched their national team's match there, and another group easily found a table seating seven on a Friday night.

    “I did not eat here so unable to give a review or score. This pub was a brilliant find, walking distance from Euston and St Pancras, for the pre journey refreshment. The pub has no frills, thats what makes a local pub. The Bar staff were helpful and courteous.”

  • Eddie Gilroy
    “Great pub, friendly staff and a good selection of beer, no football on TV so a good place to chat away from crowds on match days. Seating outside so a good place to catch the sun on a nice day. Didn't get chance to try the food as I was pushed for time”
