Trap Kitchen is a vibrant seafood and grill spot rooted in American, Caribbean, and African soul food traditions. With a moody, energetic Camden interior, it delivers bold flavours, hearty portions, and standout plating—especially its signature “bucket” of lobster, shrimp, crab and chicken.
🍽️ Cuisine & Atmosphere
Trap Kitchen serves indulgent comfort food in a lively, music-driven setting:
- The Bucket – Their signature platter loaded with lobster tails, bang bang prawns, Cajun chicken wings, crab legs and creamy mac & cheese—guaranteed to impress with sheer abundance.
- Bang Bang Prawns & Catfish – Crisply fried prawns tossed in Cajun sauce and catfish with rich mutambo sauce, both highlights of their seafood-led menu.
- BBQ Chicken & Mac & Cheese – Smoky, well-seasoned chicken thighs and standout mac & cheese praised as some of the best in London.
- Sides – Corn on the cob drizzled in butter sauce, Spanish rice, and plantain complete the indulgent experience.
The atmosphere is buzzy and inclusive: dimly lit, with sitting music like hip-hop and Afrobeats, communal booths and hands-on eating encouraged (gloves provided!). Ideal for celebrations and relaxed meals in a social clique.
