Dartmouth Arms, The

Tucked away in York Rise, Camden in North London is The Dartmouth Arms - a friendly, local pub that has its share of faithful following from the area and even beyond. As a local pub, it lends a unique character to the place of course. Football fans find the Sunday roast available at the pub, a great accompaniment for the game. It's the kind of place you want to come to with your noisy bunch of friends or even for a quiet meal with just your book or newspaper in a secluded corner.

The traditional Scotch broth, salmon and dill fishcakes, marinated chicken kebabs and the French apple tart are top of the charts, though it's safe to go with the gut and make a different choice. Service at The Dartmouth Arms is great, the ambience warm and lively and the mood is that of one big happy family gathering.
