Arrive at Camden Town station and turn right. Immediately arrive into the main high street. Shop upon shop, packed out with original and unique items - sure to find something to suit every one! Don't forget to look up; each store has been personalised with some impressive art work.

Some friends regularly visit Camden Town when they visit London, so I thought I would explore the area for the first time and wasn't disappointed. I arrived early on a Bank Holiday Monday and the Town was devoid of people. There is fantastic street art on the buildings along Camden High Street. Camden Lock is also great to explore with a canal system and bars and restaurants along the route. A different side to London and thoroughly recommended.

Camden has changed over the past 20 years and has become a model for urban regeneration. As a result it has lost a large portion of its character that attracted all this attention in the first place. It has become too commercial and overrun with food joints and clothing shops. There are pockets of the old Camden however like The Dublin Castle on Parkway.

Went on a Friday very busy , found like other places prices had increased Grand daughter was looking for a small practical leather handbag to use looking at one on the high street , staff said £75 wasn't even stamped leather we walked away said we could have it for £50 We went onto Camden itself she bought a nice dress at a nice price well pleased Well worth a visit just be careful

Came up to Camden Market for the afternoon to have a look around and see what street foods they have an offer. We had a nice walk up the canal from King Cross station, albeit having to dodge idiots on bikes (they should be on the road, not a narrow pedestrian walkway). We walked around the market, and it’s surrounding areas. It’s a visual and nasal feast. Loads of funky street art, stalls and food venders. Most of the stalls are tat or overpriced, but worth a look. We tried some Pakistani street food from The Cheesy Naan vender, lovely food and the fella serving was really friendly. £11.50 for a Chicken Masala, we shared and it was more than enough for two. We came with the two pooches, just be mindful with dogs as it gets very busy later on with many people not really paying attention to where they’re walking (too many millennials more bothered about their insta moment taking selfies than looking where they’re going). Worth a visit.
