Old fashioned pub next to canal, there is a raised area to the street windows. One roomed bare boarded with wood bar. Pool table and darts take up a bit of space. All nice enough & 4 real ales

The last time I came here about seven years ago, a weird local's dog pretty much attacked me - the idiot barman thought that this was the funniest thing he'd ever seen. My excoriating review was greeted a couple of weeks later with a sign on the door saying 'No Dogs'; a coincidence? Sadly the buggers have returned.
Actually this pub isn't that bad. It initially seems to be a scruffy locals' pub but there's a younger Camdenite crowd in here, some possibly students from the Royal Veterinary College a few hundred yards from here on Royal College Street. This is something of an abandoned backwater with just the attractive golden Courage cockerel standing sentinel over the area, though from his position he can't see the Regent's Canal, over which the pub's attractive partially covered beer garden looks.
The pub has quite a live music bent and there's a dartboard, pool table and games machines (not so good). The panelled wooden bar is to the rear and has an attractive stained leaded glass 'window' to the pot shelf. It's mainly bare boarded with some carpeting to a raised area; furniture is basic and conventional.
Ales: as below with my half of Junction being fine.
This isn't a bad pub, but I'm going to break with tradition and nail my colours to the Prince Albert across the water.

A proper boozer,sitting above the Regents Canal with a walled beer garden which overlooks the water and boats.The main room is square with the bar running down one wall,with a darts board to the side.There is a raised section infront of the large plate glass window at the front,while to the side is a pool table infront of a Victorian tiled fireplace.There is a Sky Sports flatscreen above the corner door,while the corridor leads to the large beer garden.Down some steps here is the entrance to a cellar bar,closed on my Saturday lunchtime visit.
There are 4 handpumps drawing Sambrooks Junction,Dark Star Hophead,Oakham Citra (tasted good but a little cloudy,£4) on my trip with a Sharp's Atlantic clip reversed.The keg selection included Beavertown Neck Oil and some imported lagers.
It's a community local,so expect some bar blockers but the atmosphere was friendly and I could settle in here for quite a while.A marked improvement on the nearby Prince Albert,with this pub correctly featuring in the 2018 GBG.
