Kentish Town Area Guide:
Less than four miles north of central London, Kentish Town sits between Chalk Farm to the west, Holloway to the east, Camden Town to the south and Highgate to the north, with the 800 acres of Hampstead Heath within walking distance.
Residents in NW5 tend to be young professionals or couples commuting to work in the West End or the City, who favour the area for its quiet streets, great transport connections and its proximity to the vast open spaces of Hampstead Heath.
Kentish Town has always been noted for its pubs and bars. The music scene can be traced back to the 'Tally Ho'- a former jazz pub, while other venues including The Bull and Gate hosted early performances by Blur, The Housemartins, The Libertines and Coldplay, amongst others.
In more recent years the area has become noted as leading the trend for 'back-to-basics' and real ale pubs, like the CAMRA award-winning Southampton Arms, The Pineapple and Tapping the Admiral, which was the CAMRA North London Pub of the Year in 2013. Many of these are stocked with keg and bottled beers from the Camden Town Brewery, located in the arches under Kentish Town West London Overground station. A new bar opened on the brewery premises in March 2012.
Kentish Town has come a long way up in the gastronomy stakes since the area was known for cheap chippies and best-avoided boozers. The Bull & Last is regularly regarded as one of the capitals best gastropubs, while Pizza East, Chicken Shop and Dirty Burger turned a single building into a cathedral of high-class fast food. Coffee has raised its game with The Fields Beneath and Two Doors Down. Te Amo and E. Mono keep customers happy with kebabs that are far too good to be used as alcohol-absorbers. And Anima e Cuore, a tiny space in the lower reaches of Kentish Town Road, serves some of the best Italian cooking in town.
Kentish Town has its own tube station (Northern line) with trains to the City and West End. Kentish Town train station is on the Thameslink line, with trains to Farringdon (9 minutes) and Blackfriars. Kentish Town West is on the Overground network, with trains to Highbury & Islington (connecting to the Victoria line) and Stratford. All stations are in Zone 2. The main thoroughfare for Kentish Town is the A400, just a short hop off of the A1 linking North to South.
