The"food" in my case was mostly alcohol, things to think about, and things to listen to. The bar staff I met were good natured and kind to me even though it was last call and it was my first time at the establishment. One person was bottle blonde and one was from Brazil I think. I asked for a beer and they were happy to oblige. It was like the feeling you get when someone picks you up after you fall in the mosh pit, without the mosh pit, or the falling, but with a similar soundtrack. I was also shocked to see tables cleaned at the end of the night and the bathrooms cleaned up. I'd definitely come again.

Very rude bartender (blonde girl with a lot of makeup). Asked her if they have Camden hells she said they don’t, asked her if they have any lagers she said they have plenty of lagers and once I know which one I want I should come back (and she just walked off). So I left - nice place visually but the staff seems not welcoming to new people and tries to keep it “locals only” so it gives some elitists vibes.

Fantastic black metal bar. Great people great atmosphere.

Classic dark metal pub synonymous with Camden, decent beers on tap and normally some good music on the stereo, great for live bands and just a good rock vibe. Unfortunately in several experiences the guy behind the bar lets this place down, very blunt and generally unfriendly which can spoil what should be the perfect place for rock/metal enthusiasts

Nice pub located in the heart of Camden. Wide range of drinks. Heavy rock feel.

Toilets were revolting and disgusting.

This has to be one of the most unique Pubs in London, the building is Mock Tudor and it looks Sick, you can imagine DickTurpin could pull up in a horse at any moment. The inside is a feast for the eyes aged posters cover the ceiling and the walls are covered in memorabilia and just stuff, lots of stuff. The music 🎵 most times is heavy metal or Rock, this place located on the corner of Kentish Town road and Hawley crescent and is only about five minutes walk from Camden Town station.

The bar is fully packed with enough variation the suit almost everyone and the interesting thing about the drinks range is that this pub is one of the only ones to sell monster energy.

The atmosphere in this pub is definitely unique and will be a completely different experience to all the surrounding pubs in the area. On my visits I’ve always found the staff to be amazing and they fit the vibe of the place so the continuity continues even behind the bar. There is a stage for live performances but I must admit I’ve not seen a live show on any of my visits so I can’t comment on that. All I can say is it’s a must visit when you come to Camden.

Metal bars are a rarity and this one is a gem. Went there for a free entry , 3 bands gig, good sound, 5 quid for Amstel, 6.7 for IPA. Good service, apart from occasional big ego small pp bouncer. He almost didnt let me back in when i saw my mate out, then he chucked out elderly dude what was bit annoying. Other than that it's a lovely joint and busy with locals, with an outside smokingg area, plenty of good food places around. Highly recommend for any metal fan. Long Live Camden ❤
