For Camden, it's not too bad at all, though it does get incredibly packed at peak times, and is usually rammed downstairs on a Saturday evening when [[Ewan]] has visited. It has a late licence until around 1am. A visitor to the site notes that "the piped music (and hence bellowed conversation) was agonisingly loud, far louder than is typical even of circuit pubs, to the point that the gig we went to afterwards provided relative peace and quiet", though Camden High Street is generally lacking in any cosy, quiet spaces, so to [[Ewan]] the Camden Head doesn't seem excessive in this regard.

However, if one visits at others times, there's a fairly large downstairs space, mostly open-plan, with a pool table and some comfortable couches as well as tables. Upstairs is a bookable function room, good for smallish clubs and there are also occasional acoustic gigs and comedy nights.

Downstairs, they have a couple of handpulls for ale (Adnam's and Pride, though neither were available on a September 2009 visit and have also been off on other visits, so not to be relied upon), as well as the usual lagers, such as Sagres, Leffe, Hoegaarden, Amstel and the like. (There's a tiny bar upstairs with a couple of draught taps, but this doesn't appear to be used at all.) Service is friendly.
