The Hawley Arms

A quintessential London pub! The food was absolutely delicious, highly recommend the fish and chips that is accompanied by homemade tartar sauce and flavorful mushy peas!
The staff was extremely friendly and the service was very quick for a Sunday afternoon!
The perfect weekend lunch spot with a wonderful bar, lots of seating, and a Camden market vibe!

Great space, good ambience and a fun vibe. There are many rooms including a patio on different floors. Amy Winestein used to hang out in this bar so you can see some of her pictures there.

Yep I love music and the music history certainly seeps through the walls here and everything on paper tells me I should absolutely love this pub. But I don't. I'm sorry.

Amy Winehouse used to hang out here. I've lost count how many now famous indie bands have walked through the doors of this pub at some point, I've bumped in to a few in my time. They have live music here. The beer is ok. Its a 5 minute walk from my house! DAMMIT! Why don't I like you Hawley Arms!?

I've been in to this pub a lot in my time. I don't actually know why I keep going back. Maybe its because I should like this place and I go in hope that each time will be better than all of the other times. Maybe its the friends that come and visit me in Camden that keep asking me to take them to 'ahh that famous pub, The Hawley!?'

There's just a weird vibe about this place, where it thinks and some of the clientele think that they are better than everyone else in an annoying way. I just don't get it, its definitely not a cool, laid back rock n roll vibe though and I certainly haven't experienced it in any other drinking establishments in Camden. It baffles me. There's something a little bit fake about it all really.

If I can't explain it maybe Alex Turner can:

There's a super cool band yeah
With their trilbies and their glasses of white wine
And all the weekend rock stars in the toilets
Practicing their lines (and being f*cking annoying)

When people are idiots, one cannot leave but a bad review.
We were having a great time until the bartender came and said we had to leave the area because "the owner" har it reserved. Of course they hadn't had it reserved, neither were the owners.

Like everyone else explained, this is Amy Winehouse's old spot. As soon as you walk in you'll see why too, it's got that old living room, candle lit pub style to it, it's pretty dope. But not fancy, don't go there looking for fancy.

It was cold the night I went but there's a rooftop terrace upstairs as well.

I don't know what it is about this place--it's just awesome. Great vibe, great beer selection. Its nothing too special, but darn it, I just like it. No place I'd rather be after a big shopping spree at the Camden Market.

This beer fried halloomi cheese was a new type of meal for me and I loved it. The staff was friendly, too.

Some of my favourite sweets are Haribo gummi bears. I am especially partial to the white ones and will pick them out of a package before eating the other colours. I've always found it a bit odd when British folks call my beloved bears "jelly babies."

Well, until I came to the Hawley Arms! It was in this Camden pub that I sampled my first jelly baby. And yes, they are indeed shaped like babies (does anyone else find noshing on baby-shaped candy super strange?) They don't taste as nice as Haribo gummi bears, but that wouldn't stop me from eating them again!

The Hawley Arms didn't wow me, nor did I feel particularly at home there but the drinks were decent and overall it's a solid pub.

First time there tonight, was having a blast of a time with yungblud and his fans.
Then due to my mental health issues I had to go down stairs to calm down for literally a minute and I have the wristband to get back upstairs but this white in his thirty's foreign security guard wouldn't let me go back up, so for the next nearly hour I had spoken too another security guard, two managers and the owner of this pub and I was brought back up for not even a minute then the same security guard told me to leave coz 'I had a bad attitude'
Honestly pathetic!!! My night ruined and to top it of i don't live in that area, the trains were shut and there was no bus for another couple hours, it was 3am.

Great pub stop on our day trip to Camden. My husband ordered the chicken burger and I had the blues burger. Both came with a side of triple cooked chips and we shared a scotch egg. Surprised to find Red Stripe on tap which was awesome! I also had a Bloody Mary the size of my head- delicious! Definitely will recommend this pub to any of our friends traveling in this area.
