we went here to eat dinner before a friday night out in camden. the food came pretty quickly but, having ordered a starter and mains, everything came out together. this was a little off-putting because three plates was almost all the table could handle and because our mains were going cold as we ploughed through the nachos.
however, the staff and clientele were friendly and the food tasted fine. the nachos needed a lot more cheese and were large enough to feed about 4 people! i dread to think how big the large portion is!!
we both ate veggie burgers which were pretty bland and watery but the great selection of toppings made them more than edible. drinks are pricey and in our opinion the cocktails weren't worth it.
Camden Belushi's is one of the best venues around!
It has something different nearly every night of the week and I've seen some AMAZING live bands there over the last few months with the new Rocktails Live night.
DJs are great, staff are great (particularly the manager who seems to do a great job running such a manic venue - I'm impressed!), food is great and drink specials are amazing.
Every time I've been there - which is A LOT - I've had the best nights. I would definitely highly recommend Belushi's to anyone for a great night out.
Oh, and if you're too pissed to get home - there is a hostel above the venue!!!!
What's with the bad reviews?I've been going there for years and only once had a problem with the security but he was dealt with and removed within a week, kinda proves that problem people are removed, weather it be punters or staff.
Saying that the staff are great and who are always great fun and great people and Djs who are always on the ball with the latest music.
Everything is of a high standard, drinks are good and well priced and the food is great. I love the food in there and have eaten there quite a few times and have never had any complaints.
I haven't stayed in the hostel but by the constant amount of people checking in there and being the reported "Place to stay" during The Camden Crawl, this kinda speaks for itself.
Love this place! Great nights... every day of the week something different! the staff are friendly and helpful and the drinks offers are amazing!
I held my last birthday celebration here and the management was nothing but helpful and professional.
Great dj's too, they have a good selection of music for all tastes, but my fave is Rocktails at the weekends!Food is surprisingly good too.
Best burgers in town!! :)
Seriously, what is wrong with all these people and their rubbish reviews?! Belushi's is an amazing bar with great staff, incredibly reasonable prices, a variety of different nights and a great atmosphere.
I am a very regular customer and have NEVER had a single problem with the bouncers - they're just doing their job after all when it comes to searching people on entry and checking IDs. It might not bother the regular punter but the venue could be shut down if they let people in under age - besides, people should be flattered that the door staff think they look under age anyway!! I would be! Tons of London venues have a no hoody/white trainers policy so I can't believe that these people who are whinging about it have never encountered it before.
The reviewers below clearly haven't been there in the last few weeks when you couldn't move for it being so rammed! Empty!? I don't think so.
I think it's great that a bar offers a different type of music on different nights of the week - rock one night, r&b etc another .. they even have a Guitar Hero competition one night too - you don't see many other places with so much choice.
I also cannot fault the staff - seriously - all of them are friendly and great fun! They're always willing to help and the Manager definitely runs the bar - not the bouncers as someone below said. He spends every weekend night by the front door making sure everything is ok and is the first one on the scene if a customer to the bar or hostel needs assistance.
I think these people who've reviewed below need their head checked. I will continue to go there for as long as I live close by. Without a doubt it's my favourite place in London .. and all my friends would agree.
It is with an extreme sense of sadness that I recently took the decision to no longer visit Belushi’s, which was a regular haunt for me and a number of my friends ever since we first moved to London to go to university around 8 years ago. Back then Belushi’s was always guaranteed to be a great place to go: cheap drinks in a place with a great atmosphere, cheesy music and happy vibe. Cheap, cheerful and good fun. We continued to frequent Belushi’s after we left University, as it reminded us of the good old days, and was still a good place to get a drink, catch up with friends and enjoy a fun night, inexpensive night out.
Around a year ago things changed for the worse. Perhaps I should preface the following comments by describing myself and my friends as it may put the inexplicable change in attitude in a better context. I am a 25 year old guy working in the city in a decent, respectable job. My friends are all in similar positions, after graduating from university we are now all working or training for professional qualifications. We all have money to spend, and we are all nice people, a mix of guys and girls.
Every time we go to Belushi’s we are well behaved (our getting paraletic drinking days are behind us now!) and are just there to have a good time. We regularly spend three figure sums at the bar over the course of an evening, and pump money into the quiz machine like pound coins were going out of fashion.
You would think that we are the exact kind of clientele that would be welcomed at a venue like Belushi’s, but for some reason around a year ago the attitude of the place changed, and it has been getting worse ever since.
We now have problems every time we visit the place, with inexplicable dress codes and incredibly rude bouncers. I was thrown out of the venue on a recent trip (probably to be my last) as I was very, very rudely told to leave the venue due to the fact that I was wearing white trainers. This is after I
What used to be one of my favourite bars for a cheap drink in Camden has taken a turn for the worse over the last 6 months. The atmosphere in the place has been completely destroyed by the ignorant and rude bouncers, who seem to impose another ridiculous regulation every time I visit the place (no white trainers etc).
This has caused the place to be next to empty, even at the weekends, a true shame when it used to be packed to the rafters with a mixed croud of students, backpackers and Camden regulars seeking £1.00 Jaegermeister shots.
Not only was the food poor at Belushis, the hostel upstairs means that this place is even more full of backpackers than the rest of London. Please, please, please could we either have a moritorium on them entering the country or, at the very least, a manditory course for those that do on how to behave in a public place, that isn't in Australia.
