==== Architecture ==== The modern building dates from 1968. It is generally agreed to be the worst of the central London terminuses, both ugly and unfriendly to use. See [http://www.wordiq.com/definition/Euston_station article]. |

Food options are mediocre. Apart from Upper Crust, Burger King and their ilk, a Whistlestop shop by the Silverlink platforms is the best bet on the station. If you've got twenty minutes, you could get a takeaway meal from [[African Kitchen, NW1 2HN | African Kitchen]] in [[Drummond Street | Drummond St]] next door. |
