Camden Town has so many places to enjoy a drink and maybe later a dance that you’d wear out your no doubt amazing shoes trying to visit them all. From proper old school boozers to hidden gems to cocktail bars to gastro pubs. If you like a drink in any kind of place, I’ll put money on us having your perfect spot. Just ask us... we’ve been to most of them... research purposes of course.

This is Camden Town's original "small" music venue which existed long
before any others considered Live Music each and every night. Its stage has been the launch pad to fame for dozens of Bands including Madness, Travis, Arctic Monkeys and others.
The venue also has a full range of beers, wines, spirits and cocktails on offer. The crowd is very mixed. Punks, Indie Kids, young and mature. The ambience is cool. Everyone is into music, fashion or each other. Check out Bands here BEFORE they become famous.

My home is my castle"...or better yet...The Edinboro Castle! Located just a stone's throw away from colourful Camden High St on one side and Leafy Regent's Park on the other, the Edinboro Castle is in the perfect spot. Our FANTASTIC Beer garden is definitely up there amongst London's biggest and best. It's a veritable suntrap during the day, and, with its twinkling fairylights and heated booths, is great for alfresco drinks when it gets dark. Complete with outside bar and bbq - what's not to love!!??

Sheephaven Bay is a lovely little Irish bar in the south end of Camden Town, tucked away from the hustle and bustle of the high street. The perfect place for a few quiet drinks, some fantastic food and a good chat with whoever you're out with without having to shout over indie bands or 90's Britpop on the stereo!
A Camden boozer that's got something for everyone: two sports bars at the front, a long lounge behind for diners, a conservatory and a heated smoking area.
