• the best thing about kentish town has to be the (now sadly gone) rainbow centre, which was a church...mad people, mad parties, and altogether a fantastic place to hang out. unfortunately, it got a bit nasty and so it was reclaimed by the council and everyone booted out...but when it was alive it had such an atmosphere :)
• Camden feels only a short walk if you love it, but can also feel a long walk if you hate it.
• Its unpretentiousness. It's Camden without the endless leather shops and hordes of euro-teenagers. It has real shops selling real things. And, thank God, no New Age crap to be seen.
• Doubt there is a anything that could be qualified as "best stuff" around Kentish Town.
• The Guiness.
