The Hawley Arms has a reputation being full of celeb spotters and trendy indie types and its desevered. It is an OK pub though. It's not a plastic place but it has charm and character.

The Hawley serves a good selection of drinks and the best bit is you can buy a sweets from behind the bar. With a rep it has, it has to play good music and it hits the mark here as you’d expect.

It's back up and running! The Hawley Arms with its new lick of paint and cramped smokers den has finally swung open its doors. Hectic as always and teeming with the skinny-jean masses, Hawley Arms completes a night out - without a doubt the boozing landmark of Camden.

cool pub, traditional in a sense, serves a good line of ale (green king) and the owner supports west ham - which goes down a stomper if you're in to those sort of things. the last few years has granted this little boozer a tumultuous time, having become a celeb hangout and then burning to the ground. though i'm glad to report that it's now reopen and the ale is flowing in a plentiful manner.

Featured ColumnistA very busy evening pub with pop-punk-rock anthems being pumped through the walls. When you enter you are faced directly with a bar which rounds off to the left and right feeling much like a posh hallway with quality decor, paintings (and star wars memorabilia) and large light fixtures but almost in an exotic darkness. The bar itself is well stocked and even serves sweets at 60p for a cup of their most tradional cola cubes, jelly beans, jelly babaies etc. The service is also fast and friendly. The crowd was very however and you get the feeling it is not a very strict place on ID but then it does have a young feel about it with Willy Wonka soundtrack being played in the toilets and mouthfuls of sweets between chugs of the �2.90 a pint lager. We are even convinced that the odd celebrity can be spotted in the surging crowds.Overall I only wish this place was bigger but a pub with sweets and as inviting as this one was deserves no less than a 7/10.

Hello, I'm on a mission to visit and rate every pub, club and bar in the UK. I know what your thinking but don't worry- i've got an artificial liver on standby.read about Gregory Cristal's progress on his blog http://barblog.lastminuteliving.com/
