Hiyall,

I am due to visit Wembley Stadium for a tour (not a match) in mid-February with Mrs Staal. We are getting in by train to Euston Station.

Mrs Staal is distinctly unpubby, so no crawls while I am there. However, I wonder if anyone out there can tell me of a decent, interesting pub near Wembley or Euston where I can get a decent pint, Mrs Staal can get a decent Mocha, and we can both get a really nice meal?

Cheers!

Don't know about the meal, but just outside Euston station you would have the Euston Tap,and there are quite a few coffee type places there where I would imagine a mocha can be obtained.

I'd stick to Euston as the pubs in Wembley leave a lot to be desired. The Doric Arch is a Fullers pub so will probably do food, maybe others could confirm.

Another nearby, but perhaps more food orientated, Fullers pub is the Euston Flyer (http://www.pubsgalore.co.uk/pubs/53481/)

Another idea might be the Metropolitan Bar (http://www.pubsgalore.co.uk/pubs/53863/) right above Baker Street tube station - one of the better London Wetherspoons and very handy when changing underground trains on route to Wembley.

Does the Somers Town Coffee House (http://www.pubsgalore.co.uk/pubs/22842/)near Euston Station fit the bill?

I was in there recently and they do serve food,but I have never eaten in there.Not sure you can get a mocha in there,but the beer's good :)

Unfortunately I didn't review the coffee (I assume Mocha is some type of coffee?) when I was in there recently, but my impression was that it is certainly the sort of place where you can take a lady (and there are pubs in that part of the world where you wouldn't want to). The ale's nothing very special but I had a pint of Young's London gold and it was OK.

Cheers for all of the suggestions. And yes Rex, a Mocha is a blend of chocolate and coffee.
