Hot Toddy's

You're walking down Camden High Street and duck into Hot Toddy's expecting the usual tourist trap nonsense—instead you find yourself in a proper neighbourhood bar where locals actually drink. It's the kind of place where the staff remember what you ordered last week and don't judge you for asking for a Guinness neat. The vibe is refreshingly no-nonsense: dark wood, dim lighting, and a drinks list that proves you don't need molecular mixology or fifteen ingredients to make something worth ordering. Think classic cocktails done right, shots that won't empty your wallet, and the sort of crowd that's here because they genuinely enjoy a drink, not because Instagram told them to be.
