The Randomizer

I usually steer clear of pubs in railway stations. I find the naff decor and transient clientele rather off putting. I have made an exception here because (i) its actually just outside Euston Station; and (ii) I heard the beer was good. After negotiating a series of bus lanes to the front of the station the pub looms into view like a post apocalypse Soviet tenament block. The pub itself is reached via stairs to the first floor. The walls inside are adorned with a dazzling array of old railway signs looted from Britain's railways over the years. As you might expect, the clientele represent a broad cross section of London life. Students and office workers sit cheek by jowl with weary travellers and train spotters. I chatted to a Scotsman who was getting "pished" before boarding the night sleeper to Edinburgh. The beer, as I was rightly informed, is good. It was worth coming here just to sample the many unusual ales on offer. A visit to this pub is not complete, however, until you try and go to the loo. Try being the operative word. Be sure to go to the basement toilets via the bar so that you can ask for the pass code on the way down. Our advice is to go to the loo before your bladder feels like an over inflated football.
