Hokus Pokus Alchemy Lab

cocktail·$$$·King's Cross

A copper-and-tubes basement bar beneath The Megaro at King's Cross, leaning hard into alchemy theatrics — but executed well rather than cheesily, with solid builds under the showmanship. Go for the theatrical serves, where the presentation is genuinely part of the experience, and it works nicely for groups. It is ideal for pre-train drinks if you are passing through King's Cross or St Pancras, or for a dedicated evening when you want the full performance. The convenience for the Eurostar and the northern lines is a bonus on top of a theme done with real care.
