The Blues Kitchen - Camden - London

Really nice pub, and food was very tasty. Staff were very welcoming and helpful. Will definitely return.

What a horrible traumatic experience, never again! Me and my friend (two girls) went there for late night drinks after being at a live gig at the Dublin castle, we were sober and polite at the door. The security (African origin) tall and absolutely disgraceful, went ahead and made a remark about my appearance saying he didn’t realise I was a woman, then giving us the dirtiest look possible and saying he might not let us in. His colleague then came and said we can go in but then went on to ask us for our number when we were in the smoking area and when we politely said no they went on being rude again as we were smoking and kept shouting to move down and then up again the smoking area even though it wasn’t crowded. I started feeling Ill and getting stomach cramps as I felt intimidated and as if they wanted to start a fight with two girls. I felt at risk and threatened by security which I thought were there to protect us. I tried to tell the security how I felt and was asked to leave.

Alright place, for what it is. Only went as it was across from the hotel. Nice pint. Not much else to say. Friendly stuff, would go again if I was in the area.

I am wondering if there are two ‘Camden Head’ pubs? We made for this one but I think maybe I got the wrong one? It was early afternoon and not busy which unfortunately didn’t help. This meant you could see all the dirt and smell all the smells of this place. It is probably more of a night time venue and does advertise gigs and event nights. I would imagine it is good for that type of thing, where people wouldn’t be bothered about the dirty floor and bar and the below par toilets. For day time drinking as couples with friends, I would suggest elsewhere.

Absolutely wonderful place. Real Camden charm which you can’t get many other places. Staff are nice, great djs at the weekends and open late!
