This pub gets incredibly packed on most evenings (including Sundays), and is particularly rammed downstairs on a Saturday evening. 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. |
For Camden, it's not too bad, though it does get incredibly packed on most evenings (including Sundays), and is particularly rammed downstairs on a Saturday evening. 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. |

At the main bar, they have a couple of handpulls for ale (Adnam's and London 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. Service is friendly. |
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.

A pub/bar on Camden High Street, which used to be called Liberties but has returned to the pub's original name (therefore not to be confused with the pub of the same name in Islington).
For Camden, it's not too bad, though it does get incredibly packed on most evenings (including Sundays), and is particularly rammed downstairs on a Saturday evening. 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 other times, there's a fairly large ground floor 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. Service is friendly.
