The Falcon, later The Camden Falcon, was a pub and music venue located at 234 Royal College Street, in the London Borough of Camden, North London. The pub went from hosting low-key gigs in the late 1980s to becoming one of the most influential music venues of the 1990s, and a hub of London's Britpop and Shoegaze scenes. In November 1997 American music magazine Billboard referred to the pub as being one of a few in the area that can "arguably take some of the credit for the rebirth of British rock in the mid-'90s".
