Large warehouse conversion in the Camden Lock development that reflects the changing mood of the area as a whole; clean lines, posh bar prices and battered but irresistible sofas.

Lockside's balcony serves as a good people/tourist watching spot with (estate agent chat now) uncompromised views across the water front. The staff know their drinks and their music, although at weekends the tunes are provided by DJs who rock up at dusk and get the place jumping.

So trendy you want to find fault, but actually a great operation distinguished by friendly staff.
