The Constitution is a long-established public house on St Pancras Way in Camden Town, London, owned by Young's Brewery. Opened in 1858 in what was then Agar Town, it overlooks Regent's Canal.[1][2][3]

It has been described as "cheap and cheerful" and a "lovely local backstreet boozer".[4][5]

Pubs of Distinction acquired the pub in 2015 before putting it up for sale in 2019.[6][7] In 2020, it was acquired by Young's Brewery, who suddenly closed it down.[8] It remained empty for three years until work began on restoring it in July 2023.[9]

Following the renovation work, it was reopened in 2024.[10][11]
