The new place won't be the same, and Camden really can do without yet another "authentic coffee " experience. I've been going to Marine Ices since I moved to Camden Town in 2000, and the charm was the proper italian family atmosphere. The tacky signed celeb pictures were funny, but even I was made to feel like a cherished regular when I bowled up for pizza and the best whitebait in london.
The ice-cream has noticeably gone downhill since they stopped making it on site. I know I'll still be there on sunny days, but I'll be very sad when the old place is knocked down and replaced with the inevitable flats.
