The Victoria, Camden

I cannot believe that this pub is now shut and planning permission has been put in for flats. This was a lovely pub - wood panelled with a airy upstairs room and a sweet little beer garden. Was rammed on Thursdays and Fridays. Clearly there have been some problems with beer quality over the years, and for a free house the choice of beers was perhaps unimaginative, but pizzas were great (and popular). As
someone who is currently looking for a pub to operate, I would have been delighted to have taken this one on. Hoping that change of use permission will be denied by Camden Council and the Victoria will rise again, because the current state of affairs is pretty heartbreaking.
