Canal-Top Haven in Camden's Heart

Nestled atop the bustling West Yard of Camden Market, Lockside Camden commands prime position overlooking the serene curves of Regent's Canal. The venue's outdoor terrace offers uninterrupted vistas of market stalls hawking global street foods and colorful canal boats gliding by, immersing patrons in the area's legendary eclectic energy. Shabby chic design fuses New York dive bar grit with warm, inviting touches—think exposed brick, mismatched furniture and fairy lights twinkling against the urban backdrop. During daylight hours, the space transforms into a relaxed eatery where sunlight filters through large windows, highlighting the canal's shimmering waters below. As evening descends, the atmosphere shifts, with dimmed lights and thumping bass signaling the transition to nightlife hub.

Evil Twin Kitchen's Bold Flavors

The in-house Evil Twin kitchen delivers a menu anchored in comfort with inventive twists, featuring fresh fish and chips, pork belly sliders, loaded fries and garlic prawns alongside plant-based options for diverse palates. Craft beers flow from an extensive tap list, including local brews, while mixologists craft cocktails that balance sweet, sour and spirit-forward profiles. Portions are generous, designed for lingering over meals amid the market's hum. Weekend brunches draw crowds with bubbly prosecco pairings, turning lazy mornings into festive affairs. The food philosophy emphasizes quality ingredients sourced nearby, complementing the venue's casual yet elevated vibe.

Daytime Lounge to Nighttime Dancefloor

By day, Lockside serves as a chill spot for watching Camden's street performers and shoppers bustle below, with terrace seating ideal for people-watching. Come nightfall, resident DJs spin house, deep house, Latin beats, hip hop, RnB, 90s classics, funk and soul, filling the dancefloor until late. The sister venue 180 Club below adds darts for pre-game fun, fostering a playful party extension. The layout smartly separates lounge areas from the thumping club zone, allowing groups to choose their pace—intimate chats or full immersion in the beats.

Camden's Eclectic Pulse Captured

Lockside embodies Camden's fusion of cultures, sounds and tastes, where market aromas waft up from below and canal breezes cool heated dance sessions. Its dual personality caters to lunch crowds, romantic dinners and raucous nights out, making it a staple for locals and visitors chasing the neighborhood's unfiltered charisma. Whether nursing a cocktail at sunset or joining the midnight revelry, the venue pulses with the market's timeless allure.
