The Doric Arch, Euston

Very good Fuller's pub just outside Euston Station. Seven cask beers - and one cider - on handpump when I last visited. The bar is on the first floor and the toilets (entry to which require a code from the bar) are in the basement. There is no outdoor seating. An electronic departure board operates in the bar which is very useful for those popping in for a pint before a train journey.

I only had a coffee but it was excellent. The reason we loved this pub was because we arrived at Euston and it was seething with people and an absolute chaotic mess. We had quite a bit of time before our train and wandered outside and at the main entrance was this quiet looking pub. We ventured upstairs into an air of civilised calm and were served by two lovely people. The loos can only be entered with a code so they were clean. If you have time to kill at Euston I would suggest you head here instead of coping with the madding crowd!

I have no idea what people are going on about "it's hard to find" there's literally two entrances and it's right out straight from the supermarket door. Pub is oldy-worldy which is nice and it was nice and quiet. Only one staff member on which was fine for this time of day but I can imagine that being a problem if a rush came in. Didn't have any food, had to have bottled drinks as the soda was off on the pump.

I have been visiting the Doric Arch regularly over the years, mainly as I pass through Euston to board an onward train. The staff have always been outstanding and the atmosphere good, although sometimes extremely busy in the past. Recently though they have stopped serving main meals and instead only offer bar snacks. This is very hard to understand since many travellers appeared to rely on it, as I also did. When huge numbers of pubs are closing due to the inability to survive only on wet sales this seems to be a risky and retrograde move. The effect can already be seen in the footfall, which appears to have significantly reduced.

Nice cosy place a big selection of ales and great service when not over busy. Food service pretty quick. Up a few stairs and the toilets are free but code displayed in the bar. EDIT. 2023 the menu is very basic cold pies and toasties, very disappointed though I still rated 5 due to the ale selection. Consider eating elsewhere plenty of chain outlets nearby but drink here. Good food sadly missed.

London pub based on the outskirts of Euston Station overlooking Bus Terminus, sells traditional real ales brewed by Fullers of Chiswick. Beers are well kept and pub is very comfortable, good to know fact they have a screen showing up to date departures from the adjoining station, let's you know if you have time for another excellent pint. Not renowned for its food which is more of a snack menu, would recommend if you are into good beer especially the excellent Fullers ESB.

A much needed rest and relaxation before heading home after a busy day in London. Clean and welcoming with a variety of drinks to quench your thirst. Friendly staff, with a lovely calm atmosphere. We didn't eat but the menu looked tasty, next time we will make sure we allow enough time to be able to eat here.
