August 2022 - To reopen 9/9 as The Cross. From their website "The Cross - the legendary King’s Cross nightclub (1993-2007) which served the glitterati, snuffed the paparazzi and had cult-like queues as long as York Way - is back, reinvented by the original founder." We have no info on opening hours etc etc but looking at the menu we do not expect cask beer will be served.
It had closed in Oct 2021 - The place closed the day of the first Lockdown. The following description addresses how it was before that closure.

Four-storey interwar building with ivy growing on the brick walls, khaki ground floor exterior including some art deco metalwork under the windows.
