Sad to report that this place has gone downhill since it first opened. Staff are clueless. Food is average, overpriced, and meager. Last Saturday, salads looked like they'd been sitting out for while. Not tempting at all. The hummus wrap was fine. But at 5.50, it should have been way more special. My friend's pie said it came with salad; he got maybe 5 leaves. Oh yeah, and it was only 12:30 and they were out of most host savories. Apparently the coffee is OK and the space itself is nice and open. It's a shame the food is such a waste of money.

This is definitely a tourist trap but it is equally brilliant for anyone just visiting London for the day. You might have to wait in a queue just to get in but the end result is well worth the wait.
Loud foot tapping head nodding music, but not deafening and continuous music videos playing on large screens. The food is also exceptional and some of the best tasting that I have found in London. Portions are large and costs are reasonable, probably slightly higher then you would expect but this is London and it is a tourist trap venue.
That said, prices are fairly cheap in comparison to other similar London venues.This is definitely a tourist trap but it is equally brilliant for anyone just visiting London for the day. You might have to wait in a queue just to get in but the end result is well worth the wait.

Although many will see starbucks as evil American cooperation on par with McDonalds and KFC and will feel its presence on haloed ground sacrilege I personally think it adds something. Starbucks is great in the respect that wherever I am in the world I can have a vente Latte Frapccino and know what I am receiving. The Starbucks is well placed in a lovely building right beside the lock with the lots of outdoor seating. This store provides free electricity wireless internet to costumers as well as a place to chill and relax. Some see Starbucks as part of some kind of gentrification well who cares Camden has always been middle class Joe Strummer went to public school.Although many will see starbucks as evil American cooperation on par with McDonalds and KFC and will feel its presence on haloed ground sacrilege I personally think it adds something.

Good Points
It's really reasonable, and the atmosphere is lively.

Bad Points
The wireless service is extremely unreliable. You enter the shop and you never know if it's available. It's so different from Starbucks because it's very often cut off, and the staff have no idea about it.

General Comments
Cafe Nero has a lively atmosphere, but it doesn't appear to be very clean. You often find used dishes left for too long. The toilets aren't very clean either.
Most importantly, if you are on some business and you need to use the wireless internet service, NEVER expect it to work well. I have had so much messing and have had to go opposite to Starbucks. It also has a large seating area and a loyalty card giving you your tenth coffe free. I love the hot chocolate they serve though! YUM!

Caffe Nero - Caffe Nero in Camden Town by nispero

The Caffe Nero is located in Camden High street. This is one of the branches that are in London. Particularly this one is not very big but there are a few seats in it.
They sell different varieties of coffee (capuchinos, machiattos, espressos) and also some sandwiches and pastries (carrot, chocolate cake, etc.).
The staff is usually quite busy and the Nero is perhaps not the most relaxing place to stay, mainly at weekends where Camden is really overcrowded.
An average place to have a coffee or a tea but nothing special.
The prices are quiet expensive considering the quality of the food.The Caffe Nero is located in Camden High street. This is one of the branches that are in London. Particularly this one is not very big but there are a few seats in it.

Coffee is not great but the space is cosy and there are nice sofas to chill and chat on. Nice to not be in a chain for once.Coffee is not great but the space is cosy and there are nice sofas to chill and chat on. Nice to not be in a chain for once.

A typical london cafe with the usual sandwiches etc. but they make a lovely jacket potato with your choice of filling and the two gentlemen who run the place are always friendly and happy to serve.A typical london cafe with the usual sandwiches etc. but they make a lovely jacket potato with your choice of filling and the two gentlemen who run the place are always friendly and happy to serve.
