Restaurants, shops and a brilliant tattoo parlour
Camden resident and punk Anderson Garcia Rodrigues gives us a guide to London’s most indie neighbourhood.
‘I like this street next to the station because you can eat different things – Mexican, Portuguese, Brazilian, Spanish – not just the classic fish and chips. I really like the restaurant Made in Brasil.’

‘Sai Sai sells punk- and goth-style clothes. When I go in, I always see things I’ve never seen before anywhere else. It’s a really special place for goths and punks and underground cultures. I have a belt and a corset from here that I really like.’
26 Chalk Farm Rd, NW1 8AH.
‘This is really important: when people go to Camden Town they always ask me where they can get their guitar fixed or buy an instrument. This is the one. I have a T-shirt, a guitar, a lot of things from here from whenever I walk past.’
23 Chalk Farm Rd, NW1 8AG.
‘They have everything in Camden Market. You can find vinyl records, see shows at Shaka Zulu, take pictures with the statue of Amy Winehouse, eat so many different types of food. I love sweet foods and there’s a lot of them there.’

‘This is the pub Amy Winehouse played in. I like it because you don’t just see pictures of Amy here, you see old photos of the Sex Pistols, The Clash, The Rolling Stones, plus all of their autographs. You feel like time’s stopped. The architecture inside is also really amazing.’
2 Castlehaven Rd, NW1 8QU.
‘Everything in there is so futuristic. I have never seen clothes like this in my life. It’s got really incredible things you only see in movies, and amazing displays.’
Stables Market, Chalk Farm Rd, NW1 8AH.
