The Southampton Arms review: Kentish town pub with a great range of craft ales

This pub set about equal distance between Gospel Oak, Tufnell Park and Kentish Town stations has resisted going too ‘craft’ despite stocking around 20 varieties just that — it still feels like a local boozer.

There’s a particular prevalence of brews from London’s smaller breweries as well as those from around the UK, while fans of craft cider are also well catered for with five or six on tap at all times. The pub's open fire also makes this one of the cosier pubs in the area.
