WELCOME TO ARABICA KING’S CROSS

Set in the heart of the King’s Cross Quarter, just moments from Coal Drops Yard and Granary Square, our King’s Cross restaurant is a relaxed space to enjoy the vibrant, sun-drenched flavours and boundless hospitality of the Eastern Mediterranean.

Pull up a seat at the bar and watch our chefs at work while sipping on a Levantine-inspired cocktail or settle in for a Middle Eastern family-style feast. From velvety dips and colourful meze to charcoal-grilled meats, day-boat fish, and flavour-packed vegetarian and vegan plates, there’s something for everyone.

For those who prefer to dine al fresco, our outdoor terrace overlooks the grassy meadow of Lewis Cubitt Walk and the Persian-inspired Jellicoe Gardens—a peaceful spot to unwind over a leisurely meal, away from the hustle and bustle of the city.

With its warm, welcoming atmosphere, Arabica King’s Cross is a place to break bread and savour the simple pleasure of good food—whether gathering with family, catching up with friends or enjoying a quiet moment for yourself.

TO BOOK, OR NOT TO BOOK?

We recommend booking, but we always keep a few unreserved tables for walk-ins. If we’re full when you arrive, feel free to grab a drink while we find you a table as soon as possible. Once all our tables and counter seats are taken, we operate a virtual queue to keep waiting times to a minimum.

For groups of 8–20 guests, you can book online by selecting a date, time, preferred menus, and welcome drinks.

For larger groups of 20 or more, or to enquire about private hire or special events, please visit our Parties & Events page.
