About Camino King's Cross
The Spotlight on Camino King's Cross

Vibrant Spanish Tapas in the Heart of King's Cross

Camino King's Cross is a lively, modern Spanish tapas bar located just a short walk from major London music venues and King's Cross Station. Inspired by the rustic charm of Spain's backstreets, the restaurant blends industrial-chic interiors with a warm, energetic vibe. Expect bold flavors, warm lighting, and a buzzing crowd—especially on gig nights.

Why Concert-goers love it

Camino is perfectly placed for a pre-show meetup, offering quick, shareable plates and strong cocktails. The service is fast and friendly, making it ideal if you're on a tight schedule. With both indoor and outdoor seating, it’s a great choice no matter the season, and the lively atmosphere sets the mood for a night out. Bonus: it's just a short stroll from several top venues and King's Cross Tube.

Who this Restaurant is great for

  • Groups of friends looking to share tapas and laughs before a gig
  • Solo travelers grabbing a bite at the bar before heading to a show
  • Couples making a romantic night of dinner and live music
  • Fans who want a buzzing, energetic space to soak up the pre-concert buzz
  • Budget-conscious visitors wanting tasty food without breaking the bank

What People Say

Reviewers love the authentic Spanish flavors—especially the chorizo, padron peppers, and patatas bravas. The atmosphere is regularly described as fun and upbeat, with friendly staff that keep service moving even when it’s busy. Many appreciate the central location and say it’s a great place to kick off a night out in the city.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests mention that it can get noisy during peak hours, so it may not suit those looking for a quiet meal before a mellow show. Others note that, while the tapas are flavorful, portions can feel a bit small for the price.

The Bottom Line

If you’re looking for great vibes, fast service, and bold Spanish bites just minutes from your concert venue, Camino King's Cross is a top pick.
