• Cocktail Bar • Euston
Booked 1 time today
Did someone say cocktails? Inspired by 1800’s quack-physician, Dr James Morison, who believed in a universal vegetable cure for all ailments based on botanical compounds. At Hokus Pokus, the botanical ‘remedies’ are distilled, and served on the rocks instead. Although they are not claiming any health benefits, the team at the Alchemy Lab are confident the tinctures can still do wonders for your mood.Hokus Pokus is an ode to the location and heritage behind Kings Cross featuring a fascinating blend of 19th century apothecary and retro-futuristic steampunk engine room. The ceiling ripples with electric dynamos, steam valves, copper pipes and circuits forming the backdrop to a complex stage lighting scenography often seen in theatres, for perfect mood lighting.Please note: We currently do not accept OpenTable dining cheques.

    I’d heard about the restaurant and as being of German parentage decided to take my sister, niece and her partner for Christmas lunch. A really wonderful experience. The staff were pleasant and attentive, the food was served without delay and I have to say the portions and the flavours were delicious, just as I remember from my mother’s cooking and all reasonably priced. Lovely venue and I would recommend to friends.

    Great service and food. We all dined from the festive menu, all starters and mains were spot on and the sourdough bread to share was delicious . They managed to squeeze us in ahead of our booking time and stored our suitcase’s for us.

    A real surprise up in the 10th floor. Perfect place for a dinner for two or a group vibe. Buzzing and lively yet cosy and intimate spaces at the same time. A real find.

    This was our first visit but now will be our go to restaurant for delicious Indian food. We chose it as we were meeting friends who were traveling through Kings Cross. I didn’t mention when booking that I am disabled and they had placed us downstairs which is difficult for me but a table on the entrance floor quickly became available and we were sat there and they found a place to park my walker. The waiter quickly gave us menus and served us drinks. Lovely choices on the menu and we ordered an assortment of dishes to share. All of the food was excellent. Good size portions too. The waiters were attentive and friendly and quite entertaining. It’s a busy place . Some just pop in for a quick snack and others for full meals like us. I would highly recommend this restaurant..
