About Lincoln Arms
Convivial pub with old maps, comfortable sofas and quirky antique decor, bar snacks.
In among a sea of fizzy taps sit two handpumps. This had been a traditional pub and then was transformed into a trendy chill out bar, for the yoof, with UV lighting, and loud music. It is now pretty much back to a traditional boozer.
In around August 2023 it reverted back to its original name.
This pub is not a nationally listed building but it is locally listed. The ironwork over the entrance bears the original name of the pub, The Lincoln Arms. The old bar counter is also of interest.

In an area seemingly overrun by posh wine bars and swanky cocktail places, it's great to have the Lincoln for a bit more of a relaxed vibe. It's more of a pub (/lounge), and the prices are certainly better! A couple of tables outside, too, should the antics of York Way (or smoking, or the afternoon sun) be favourable to the convivial inside. I'll be back!

Is a great spot if you're looking for a relaxed atmosphere with a touch of old-world charm. The decor is warm and inviting, with a mix of rustic wooden furniture and vintage posters on the walls. The drink selection is decent, offering a variety of beers, ales, and a few good whiskey options. The service is friendly (Sara was amazing). As for cleanliness, the pub is generally well-kept. It is a solid choice if you're in the area and looking for a comfortable place to enjoy a drink with friends.

A lovely genuine small roadside pub on York Way, adjacent to Kings Cross Station. The Lincoln Arms is tidy, well kept and clean. A good selection of keg beers and a couple of cask ales for those that do. Some vinyl DJing by the look of things. A great tranquil place. The beer is good too!

Met Joyce while I was waiting to get into my room - she was helpful and kind- a bit of a rarity in a heavy tourist area! Felt like we were fast friends by the end of the evening! Their mission statement is all about good vibes and this little pub certainly has it🙌🙌

Charming pub with a traditional feel. A short walk from King's Cross St Pancras butnfar enough away to avoid the chaos of commuters. Other pubs in the area have always caught my eye but finally gave this pub a try on Friday night. It was busy but still plenty of space. Very interesting decor including mural on the back wall. Warm welcome from the lady behind the bar.
