Review of Camden News

12 Aug 07, 08:00

Fairly overpriced, but alright. 3*

You think of a newsagent and you think 'random amount for something you want' when you go in. Camden News does follow this suit - but you end up paying more than you initially thought. You'll find things at 1.10 that you'd find 0.86p elsewhere. However, you can find my favourite drink there though (Arizona Green Tea with Ginseng and Honey). Again, this is 1.10 - so it's not as though as I can splurge and purchase it all the time. Although, it' a decent shop based on location.

The prices are high, as I've mentioned. Plus, for those with children/pushchairs, be mindful - it's a rather small shop. And yes, since it's right there on Camden High Street - it gets REALLY busy, especially on the weekends.

The staff seem to be in a hurry - but my only experiences there are fast-paced days (saturdays). So of course it only makes sense. They weren't disrespectful about me bringing in a huge buggy with my four year old in it - even though I could tell it was causing problems.
