Plum + Spilt Milk relaunches as Rails

Now called Rails, the 80-cover restaurant has a separate bar area called Little Bar that was previously The Snug and serves a menu of modern British cuisine with a French accent in acknowledgment of its proximity to the Eurostar.

Starters include roasted beetroot with tahini yoghurt, pomegranate and lamb lettuce; and baked St Marcelin with truffle honey, with mains such as seared Cornish cod with buttered leek, apple and thyme dressing; and moules frites.

There is also a grill section dependent on what is available from the butcher that day.

“We’re all incredibly excited to introduce Rails Restaurant & Little Bar to the world. Our proximity to King’s Cross station means we have a truly cosmopolitan and international audience, and we wanted to create something that had a unique sense of identity but also widespread appeal,” says Kelechi Kay, food and beverage manager at Great Northern Hotel.

“We have focused on quality and provenance, as well as creating an accessible offering, and I’m confident it will be well received by both new and returning guests.”
