Refurbishment provides for a superior welcome break at The Driver


King's Cross doesn't have a great reputation for cleanliness and comfort, particularly in the toilet department. But change is afoot, recent developments at St Pancras and King's Place (more of which in later posts) have shown us that there is hope for a better toilet experience. However, smaller places are doing their bit too, and that's where The Driver comes in. Having recently undergone an extensive refurbishment, this fine pub and restaurant now boasts decent loos to match.

Located in a new basement area, accessed by a wide and easily navigable staircase, the toilets are walled by varnished brick. Coupled with the cosily low and warm lighting levels, the environment is somewhat reminiscent (minus the piped in comedy) of that found in The Angelic just a stone's throw away. Exposed pipework and simple but sturdy fittings are the order of the day, with good quality soap provided, and decent hygiene standards.
