Fifty Five’s (55’s) Cocktail Bar

just off of Inverness street tucked in the back of Camden in a part of the neighbourhood that hardly resembles Camden at all sits a trendy bar bustling bar with a similar atmosphere to old Hawley Arms.the venue is primarily a cocktail bar with drinks served at a normal bar speed and therefore a little on the slow side.the venue is a small l shaped room with toilets in the basement and another bar upstairs.out front there is chrome seating and friendly bouncers situated under cover to keep out of the rain. The music inside is quite underground alternative with a rock edge.there is just about enough seating to be comfortable with leathers and seating arranged in a booth like manner but i would expect to stand.perhaps the only problem is finding this bar but that comes as a gift as well since it is far enough back from the action to not get overcrowded with the average wait at the bar standing at about five minutes.

Overall quite inexpensive and not for metal-er types who normal commandeer the town but for trendies,i would expect to see the odd celebrity - 7/10

    I’m from Sydney but while living in London this was one of the best bars I could find anywhere. I miss the clients, the music, the drinks and the staff who are great people. Wish I could transport this great place to Sydney.
