The Cellar Kings Cross

BARCHICK SAYS

A stunning wine selection & banging sharing boards make this bar the place to be.

Sure, the name might conjure a dim, dark, dusty room choc-full of wine, but only part of this is true. The Cellar in KX is actually bright n fresh, with window seats for people watching, snug seating in the back for romantic dates, distressed historic tiles that make you feel like you’re in a French art-film & lots of soothing natural materials. 

But let’s face it - you’re not here to admire the wood -  you’re here to guzzle the wine. Sorry - appreciate the wine. Or both.

The Cellar KX comes from the team behind the identically named wine bar in the Cotswolds, and the care & attention that made that spot so popular is evident here in London. We love it when people have passion, and there’s no doubt that the team behind The Cellar have it in barrel-loads. All of the wines they sell are classified as ‘sustainable viticulture’ which means their producers aim to produce the best wines they can without irresponsible environmental or economic practices. They champion low intervention wines from smaller producers who use unique growing techniques, and even that mate who fancies themselves as a bit of a unqualified sommelier will find a glass of something that surprises them. 

Of course wine is great on its own, but a little something to nibble on never did any harm. Here, it’s all the 3 Cs: cheese, charcuterie and carbs. Producers include Neil’s Yard Dairy, Saltpig Charcuterie and Brindisa, so you know the food is gonna be the same grade A quality as the wine. Get us down to the cellar, pronto.
