About Rocket
Spacious traditional pub with huge, arched windows, high moulded ceilings and outside tables.
One of the last (non-brewing) Firkins, when that chain closed real ale was lost but in 2013 it returned. A striking looking pub with an impressive Victorian exterior (Grade II Listed), very conveniently situated for Euston, King's Cross and the British Library. Quiz Night Monday. Up to 5 beers can be on sale but it can be more normal to find 4 at any one time. Breakfast is served every day until 12 noon. Childrens' menu.

The Rocket is a pub along Euston Road between Euston and Kings Cross Stations. You'll find a fairly large indoor seating area and a menu with a wide range of British and other western dishes. An expected range of beers and other drinks on offer as well. Opening hours are 9am until late each evening. Table spacing is quite good, service is friendly, prices reasonable. Recently popped in and ordered their Steak & Guinness Pie, was a generous serving size and tasted just fine. All in all, a good option for lunch or quick meet up in the area. Would have no problem popping into The Rocket again…

Just arrived in London from a long journey and going on exploring pubs in London. It's one of pubs between St Pancras and Euston Station. What attracted me much was atmosphere outside the pub. So stopped by for a drink and enjoyed outdoor seating for sunshine. Good and quick service. Sure will be back.

Fantastic experience at The Rocket. Our group of 5 reserved a table for the boxing match between Fury and Usyk on Saturday 18th May. We were very well looked after and had fantastic seats for the screens. Service was excellent, with a special mention to the manager Brenton who went above and beyond to ensure we were all well looked after. We then returned the following morning for a full English breakfast which was excellent, really enjoyed it and great value for money. We highly recommend The Rocket and hope to be back in the future

Moved into the area, so I figured I'd give The Rocket a go. Lovely atmosphere, friendly folks around on the Friday and Saturday evenings. Security guards are pleasant and lovely to chat to, as is the general manager. Met some great people on a whim. Everyone is accommodating and friendly. They take both cash and card, and overall, such a lovely vibe to stop by and have a drink! Will definitely be coming back a few times here and there :)

Had such a lovely evening here, really loved some of the bartenders! Really friendly staff and we had good conversation over a pint. The girl with loads of tattoos was super attentive to me and my friends and she was so kind!!
