This is part of the international(!) Belushi's chain of bar restaurants, the name clearly trying to give the impression of being some sort of New York Jewish-style deli-diner; believe me it's not, and the branding is horribly dated, the ventures looking as if they went up in the mid-1980s. Brewers' Tudor is an accurate description as this was The Wheatsheaf until 2002.
There's a dark interior which is bare boarded and has conventional furniture; there's some metal chequerplate flooring to the lavatory. There were sport TVs with the sound off and AC/DC's For Those About To Rock, We Salute You played at a low level over the gramophone. The wall displays some punk poster album covers and sauce bottles adorn the tables. Above, there are some ugly aircon ducts and to round up the unappealing interior, there's a flashing games machine.
Ale: just Robinson's Trooper at £1.90 a half which is quite cheap for the area but it wasn't good and I actually wonder if it was indeed Trooper.
Just as we were leaving, some East European backpackers turned up and were checked in.
Nope, I won't be returning.

Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about Belushis
A curious bit of brewer's Tudor on Camden High Street, housing a basic sports bar with limited furniture and decor. Backpackers hostel above. Surprisingly, perhaps, it does have a handpump that dispensed a drinkable pint of Deuchars IPA (£3.50).

I had to wait a while to be served so I did a quick scan of the place and decided to have a half. The barmaid was very pleasant when she finally arrived and proceeded to explain that the pints were almost half price. So I was supersized into having a pint and I had to stay longer. There is no real ale, but there is John Smiths Smoothflow, Guinness, Strongbow and plenty of standard lager. There are a few screens with the ability to show Sky and Setanta and there is also a pool table tucked around the corner at the rear of the pub.
It's basically an American themed pub full of Australian backpackers.
