How to Complete

3 steps curated by Wine Memories

1. ⛰️ 1

   Find the Bar

   adventure Free

   Enter St Pancras International station (King's Cross St Pancras tube). The champagne bar runs along the upper level of the Grand Terrace, beneath the Victorian Barlow Shed roof. Look for Tracy Emin's pink neon artwork "I want my time with you" - the bar is directly below. Refurbished in 2024 with deep blue décor, marble, and brass.

   🔄 BACKUP: If the main bar is full, Searcys has a smaller bar at the west end.

   Press for Champagne

   wine $$$

   Sit in one of the private booths and press the "Press for Champagne" button - the signature gimmick since 2007. A server brings champagne directly to your table. Glasses start around £15; bottles from £60. The bar stocks over 50 champagnes. You're drinking where Eurostar passengers have toasted for nearly 20 years.

   🔄 BACKUP: Standard seats along the 98m bar also have full service.

   Toast the Station

   Optional

   history Free

   Look up at the Barlow Shed roof (1868) - one of the greatest Victorian engineering achievements. The station was nearly demolished in the 1960s; poet laureate John Betjeman led the campaign to save it. Now it's the gateway to Europe. Toast to survival and reinvention.

   🔄 BACKUP: Walk to the Booking Office Bar (same station) for cocktails in the original ticket hall.
