avoid like the plague!!!me and my mates ordered 3 german beers the other night and the ragged female owner totally abused the barman behind the counter even though the service was excellent from him, I was embarrassed to say the least and we nearly walked out. also there was a short chinese man there, not quite fitting to an Irish pub imo lol. to be honest on inspection the place is filthy, bar flies swarm the counter, the glasses are grubby and water stained, toilets reeked of urine. a couple next to us ordered food and barely touched it, only to get abused by the landlady on collection of the plates. this place needs to be inspected to see if it's up to legal requirements imo. although you may argue character, the owners certainly don't have any. i will never step foot inside here again particularly because of the filth and abuse of bar staff, i noticed they have a sign on the window looking for part time staff, this must be concurrent and god help any applicants!!!!!!avoid avoid avoid. on a positive note, the bottled beer selection is v.good and bottles are cold.

Great pub, great staff.

The beers are great, the prices are ok.
Once with a group of friends were watching a match on Sky and they let us stay in after the place was closed until the match finished!

A must to take visitors when coming to London, the family running the place, the decoration, just perfect... I'll give them 10.

Never tried the food tough.

I like this place but I get seriously evil headache hangovers the morning after drinking anything on tap here. Feels like my head is being split in two from the inside out and it's a unique after-effect of beer at Quinns. It's happened each and every time I've drunk draught beer or lager here, and it hasn't happened any where else. Can only assume something is going wrong in their sterliisation process, like maybe its caused by the chemical they use to clean the beer pipes. Anyway now I stick to the bottled beer at Quinns. It's clean and there's certainly plenty of good ones to choose from.

Not a bad bar all round. The drinkers are very friendly and social. Never had any bother here and I've always had a good time. in the beergarden...... choice of two actually - one out the front - great for people watching and a bigger one out the back which is a real treat in Camden.

Got to say, I dont get the comments about the staff. The truly ancient Mr And Mrs Quinn are amazing and an institution in their own right. Their two sons are sound blokes - though it must be said Vince doesn't suffer fools gladly..... but then who does?

I'd give Quinns a 7.5 out of 10. Not generally my favourite boozer in the area but on some nights it can be. It's definitely got a bit of magic.

I quite like Quinns; the atmosphere is good, nice mix of locals and Camden sorts and it's a decent place for a late night drink. That said, they have a problem with their beer. I go once a month or so and I'd estimate that on 4 or 5 visits out of the last 7, I've ordered a beer that has been completely off. As in tasting like Sarson's. Usually it's the St Edmunds. They seem to have a particularly problem with this and it's bloody annoying. I'm sick of having to take pints back.

I´ve been there in my Holidays. This Pub is so classic, traditional and awesome, that i must go a second and a third time. The barkeeper is so humorous and generous. As an german student, i was there very welcomed !!!!!!!
