Euston Tap, Euston

The two gatehouses or lodges were built by the London North Western Railway company in 1870. The stone blocks on the outside have the names of some of the towns the railway served then. These lodges were not part of the Doric Arch, which was much further into the current Euston station. The gatehouses are linked by a "secret" underground passage which runs under the road and is used as the cellar for both the Cider Tap and Euston Tap. The beer is delivered to the point of dispense by an air compressor. I have never had a bad pint here!
