“We’re hearing reports this morning that the Constitution pub has been taken over and closed, and all the staff made redundant. Our thoughts are with them of course, but also with the local community and all the people, including us at Folk in the Cellar, for whom the Con has been part of our lives. It’s appalling that someone can just come in, flash money and put an end to all that. If/when we find out more we’ll pass it on. In the meantime, thanks for all the good times -we’ll have to find a way of carrying on making and sharing music in Camden.”

Previously operated by Pubs of Distinction who put all their on the market. Founded in 1858, it is the last remaining building from the old Agar Town, a short-lived working-class community swept aside by the development of St Pancras station and its rail lines.

As was: This is a very pleasant community pub, a welcome haven within bustling Camden and its vibrant Camden Market area. Its award winning patio terraced garden (Four time finalist in “Camden in Bloom”) has a very pleasant south-facing outlook over Regent’s canal. Member of CAMRA LocAle scheme. The downstairs cellar bar is host to live music and comedy events.

It's a bit fiddly to find this one - leave Camden Town Tube and cross over to the World's End pub, turn left and then right on to Greenland Road, walk to the end and cross Camden Street, turn right and then left into Georgiana Street. Walk to the end (crossing Royal College Street) - you should see the pub in front of you, by the humpbacked bridge over the canal. It is easier coming from Camden Rd.
