The Hawley Arms Pub Camden

The Hawley Arms pub was a favourite hang out of Amy Winehouse and also where she was renowned for hopping behind the bar to pull a pint. Allegedly Amy’s favorite tipple was a “Rickstasy,” a drink unique to this pub. It consists of vodka, banana liqueur, Southern Comfort, and Baileys. However when asking in the pub the staff say this was made up and never existed.

Anyhow, you can pop into this famous Camden pub and see memorabilia of Amy and many other famous people and bands all over the walls. Other celebrity’s such as Liam Gallagher, Kate Moss, and Pete Doherty all drank in the pub at some point, but the Hawley owed its fame to Amy Winehouse.

You can visit Camden Square where Amy lived. The Amy Winehouse house in Camden is on a quiet leafy street and is visited often by fans and tourists alike to pay their respects.
