The Earl of Camden, Camden

Ok, food not great - but at least its cheap - where else can you get 2 meals for 5.95 total?
Pub is great - very friendly staff and beer kept well with good choices - and probably the only pub i've been to where the staff wander around when they are not busy asking if you would like a drink brought to you ! - how about that !!
I like this place, no hassle,no agression and you can watch the tasty bits walking past the goldfish window.
Oh , and also , very accommodating when it comes to putting sports on big screen - Sky,ESPN,Eurosport - if you ask them nicely, they will put it on for you.

The Good Mixer, Camden

Nasty place.
If you go there , do as Amy Winehouse does and take your minder with you.
Last time, I had my phone and Ipod 'lifted' from my coat pocket by some reprobates - and the staff didnt give a t**s - seemed like ' oh, another one' - you know, those Antipodean barstaff who are up their own a**e .
Give it a miss if i was you and find somewhere better in Camden - after all, you have got plenty to choose from.

The Anchor and Hope, Charlton

Are these people going to the same pub ???

Yeah, some decent (industrial) river views, and if the sound of jets taking off from City airport is your cup of tea then great.
My experiences, and i've been there 3 times now, so its not just a bad day- Flat Stella, you know where there's no head and the bubbles rush up the outside of the glass, and food that was too embarassing that I had to apologise to my Swedish friend when she received it. A Hot Sausage sandwich (advertised WITH Salad) that appeared as 2 thick white doorstops of bread with a few bits of fatty ALdi/Walls sausages inside(at least the sausages were hot) - oh and by the way, no salad. It was a disgrace.
Dont go there! - if you do ,I would suggest you take your own food and drink and sit outside.
