"I 've been here a few times. It 's a nice enough pub, with a good range of ales. The staff are friendly enough, and the drinks are decently priced. It 's always quite busy and popular among the locals. But I had a bit of a frustrating experience the other day. Me and a friend of mine were walking my dog. It began to rain so we decided to grab a drink somewhere whilst it settled down. We were near the grapes, so I whipped out my phone and googled whether dogs were allowed in the pub. Online it says a child and dog friendly pub... and that dogs [are] allowed inside . I thought brilliant, me and my mate can grab a quick pint whilst we wait for the rain to stop. We go in the pub. Nobody says a word or bats an eye lid. We buy our drinks and go to sit down. As soon as we sit down, the landlady comes over, and, very politely, says dogs are not allowed in the pub. I have no problem with this. A lot of pubs don 't allow dogs in because they can be noisy, dirty, and some people just don 't like dogs. It 's totally fair enough. But it was frustrating because it meant we then had to stand outside in the rain and the cold. The information online is clearly out of date and needs changing. I just thought I 'd do a review to give other dog walkers a heads up, and make the owners aware that the online information is incorrect. The pub itself though is nice enough though. I 'll definitely go again but next time I 'll have to leave the dog at home."

"this is a review of the new filiale in kings cross, which is not yet available in the zomato database. decent levantine eat, but not as good as my greedy, but cheaper favorite mangal1 in dalston for charcoal grilled dishes. they pay for chic environment here. in contrast to mangal1 arabica would be a suitable place to bring a date. mezzes not as inventive as some pricier other favorites like morito in clerkenwell or tuyo in hackney. what they do well at arabica is classic middle-east convenience food that I rarely see on menus. I love that she batata harra and mejadra (spels here as mujadarah.) another thing that they do very well is efficiency. the high amount of staff in the open kitchen and in the kitchen arrives very quickly. we started with the moutabel, which was pleasant but not as good as the cheaper patlacan salata at mangal1. the smoked aubergine lacked a pronounced carbon taste. I also had the same complaint for the grilled meat dishes. Although I could see the charcoal grill and open fire in the kitchen, I couldn't really recognize him in my eating. moutabel was served with some exceptional flat broths. extremely thin and delicate the green shhug soon came after. not as beaten and bright as my favorite train at the good egg in stoke newington. both strong comfort foods were excellent. the lenses in the mujardarah were beautifully spiced and the crispy paper thin triangle of fried wobbles was beautiful. also batata harra (fried potatoes) were fabulous. very crisp, so likely fried in quite a lot of oil and pronounced aromas of seasoned and garlic as well as fresh coriander. our grills of chicken wings and cattle villains were somewhat disappointing. beef was tender and very medium-sized, but somewhat underheated and lacked in speculative. accompanying brat tweezers in a sweet date sauce but was very nice. wings had a slight smoke. well made fat, but also under seasoned for my taste. they came with a rather refined tonum or garlic sauce. it doesn't matter to me that my gum is aggressiw garlicky, but if they prefer a mild nuanced toum, they will like that. we were too full of desserts, although the desserts looked great. they had no problems with providing a takeaway box for unfinished food. I would recommend arabica especially for beautifully executed traditional strength comfort food in conjunction with home cooking and street food that do not appear regularly on restaurant menus. the grill area of the menu is more diverse than most of the Central Eastern restaurants that are not limited to lamb and hawn. also they are good when they prefer to be refined and refined medium-east sauces such as toum and zhoug. I didn't try her harissa, but I expect that was the same story. for wood charcoal grilled meat and aubergine is my favorite London address still mangal1. for creative mezzen I prefer morito and tuyo."
