Go there without hesitation. Great choice of beer and nice quick small dish. Industrial atmosphere very well done and sofa upstairs.
We had Cuban rhythm with percussion and singing that day it was excellent. The young staff was very friendly. Perfect for the whole family before entering the streets...

What a dreadful place. I was forced to come here for a friends gig. Watered down drinks, rude service (especially the woman with long black ponytail) who screamed at my girlfriends face, and terrible music. One of the worst places I've been to in London. The only reason they still have business is b...

Ehhh this place is alright.

Ehhh this place is alright.

We came here since Propaganda has moved from electric ballroom but you still pay the same for entry?

The cloakroom is outside (but covered) so when you get your jacket at the end of the night its freezing!!

Also a pretty small venue, the main bit has three differ...

Generic Camden gig venue. Went for London Burlesque Festival, Jazz & Gin night, they didn't specialise in gin at the bar at all that night & no live music either. However, that was probably more my issue with event organisers than the venue itself. I'm sure it's fine for gigs. Seemed to have a decen...

We came for a friend's gig - they made us all arrive at 6:30 and then find you out when you get there the actual times for each band. This obviously caused a huge queue at 6:30.

Well once you're in, you cannot renter and there was about 7 chairs in total so you're forced to stand for hours watchi...

Prices are good here especially if you go during their happy hour, open mic night used to be great but haven't been in a while. The seating is good especially if you get a table upstairs- you can have a group conversation here. The staff used to always get the drinks wrong and my friend got an off p...

This was my first visit, luckily tickets from a friend, to see Catfish and the Bottlemen, there were a couple of supporting bands which were OK but the main band were awesome, never seen them before but the sound in the venue was very good. It's a fairly small place and it did get busy and very hot ...

Door staff are rude an unhelpful. Lack common sense. Bar staff were very nice and friendly but slow. Still using disposable plastic cups in this day and age. I was there early on a weekday and toilets were bad before anyone actually used More

Cheap beer + shots + small cover fee.

The music was a little too POP focused for me but I guess that s what happens when a from NY goes to a random spot in Camden Town. My favorite bartender is the brother with the Jesus cross earring.

I saw my first English bar fight which security was qui...

The bands I saw there were fantastic and the staff were friendly and helpful enough, especially security, BUT we women had a hard job finding toilet roll in the large bathroom. The cloakroom service was also unavailable. It's November. Lots of us showed up in coats and came to dance. I also struggle...

Struggled to find entrance (as exit could do with a sign) and should've kept walking past.
Wouldn't serve coffee (despite coffee menu and machine) ; had run out of all pies, Camden pale ale or anything that required cheese (why not pop to the shop??).
Chicken burger was tiny, Nachos soggy (and cov...

Was here to support a friends gig - the barmaid (black ponytail completely ruined our night). AVOID.

Edit: What a pointless response, not addressing the underlying issue that your staff member has no idea how to effectively communicate without being rude.

One of the worst experiences in London that I had. Drinks are expensive and everyone was kicked out of the bar for no reason. A security agent kicked everyone using strength because he "smelled funny". He refused to give his name or talk with the manager. Don't visit this place for your own good.

It's nice for chilling but not to eat in. 15 minutes waiting and turns out our order wasnt even being prepared. No apologies or anything they simply asked us to wait more. Maybe they are so busy that it happens much. Any way we were refunded as soon as we asked them.

Unstable tables unlabelled! Please label your unstable tables. Otherwise rip roaring events, you will enjoy as long as you like a bit of noise along with your chicken and chips! Oh and did I mention about the tables?

Waiting outside in freezing weather for 1h 45 min without explanation, then another queue to show the print ticket, how amateurish is that!? Expensive watery drinks did not exactly help... We expected a bit more from a UK venue, coming all the way from Finland. Luckily LP was amazing!

I saw Etta Bond here at the monthly Lick Party. Had a great time and once again it was easy to get to the front to capture these pictures. Lovely staff and decently priced drinks. It's a whole experience when you attend a Lick party so expect to spend money!

The ladies toilets were in an appalling state with neither toilet paper nor hand wash. One of our group, who had actually performed a gig at the venue, wanted to access the premises as he had left behind some of his belongings. The security on the door, for some unbeknownst reason, refused him entry...
