Reasons to go

  • Dinner tables overlook the stage from a balcony level, giving diners an elevated view of performances
  • Books a mix of jazz, soul, funk, and hip-hop acts rather than sticking to one genre
  • Standing-room floor sits close to the stage, creating an intimate setting for a live music venue

Reviews

Finally visited this place for the first time to catch a gig after passing it many times. Was really impressed with the cafe part upstairs which looked great for an alternative view of the stage. Ample bars at each end with friendly staff and a decent selection of drinks. Great location in Camden, would be very happy…
