This large pub and larger beer garden probably benefit from not being too close to the hurly-burly that is Camden Market. It's been modernised inside, with zebra-stripe wallpaper and curtains of hanging beads amongst the soft furnishings. It feels more designed, though, rather than just a bunch of furniture bought at a junk sale, and this helps give it a relaxed atmosphere. It's obviously working hard to appeal to a certain clientele, with fresh cut flowers scattered around and a decent mostly new world wine list. You can still get a decent pint here, with a couple of ales on the hand pumps (kept to Cask Marque standards), and a selection of continental beers and lagers. There's a reasonably priced menu, unpretentious pub food, and the prices overall are pretty reasonable - this may be a conscious effort to provide good value in difficult times, but possibly just a sign of well-run pub. If you fancy something more relaxed, this one never seems as manic as the pubs on Camden High Street, and it's probably right up your alley.
