Find us a Kings Cross pub

What is a great pub to watch football in Kings Cross, London?

We are looking to watch the Arsenal v Barcelona game tonight and would like a great pub with a good atmosphere and great ales.

Any ideas?

Various write-ups have the Euston Flyer with a big screen and a decent atmosphere, but I haven't been there myself. It's across the road from King Cross/St Pancras (head towards Euston), so would prima facie appear to meet your requirements.

(Don't know if you're a Londoner or not, but FYI at KX you're not that far away from Emirates stadium. Holloway Road tube on Piccadilly Line will probably be closed, but Highbury on the Victoria Line will be open and that area has a bunch of 'Arsenal' pubs if you're keen to be amongst the Gooner faithful. This list might be helpful.)

Would be grateful if you could report back on wherever you do end up.
