“The world is changing. There’s a reason why aristocrats develop weak chins.”
And maybe that very reason is they’ve missed out on the thrill of a good old-fashioned train ride.
Forget private jets and fancy cars — if you’re a true fan of the Kingsman movies, you’ll want to experience their iconic filming locations the way a real adventurer would.
Think less “stuffy aristocrat” and more “stylish spy on a budget.” Plus, trains have way more legroom than those fancy underground lairs. Shall we begin?

Kingsman: The Secret Service (2014) filming locations
Eggsy’s Flat — Alexandra and Ainsworth Estate, Camden, London
If you’ve ever thought, “What would it be like to live in Eggsy’s world?”, here’s your chance. Eggsy’s gritty flat is located in the 1970s-style Alexandra and Ainsworth Estate, specifically at 90B Rowley Way. This modernist gem is just a hop from South Hampstead Underground Station.
The local pub — Black Prince, Kennington, Lambeth, London
This pub isn’t just any pub – it’s where Eggsy and Harry Hart had that unforgettable bar fight. The Black Prince in Kennington, just a short stroll from Kennington Tube Station, serves up pints, pies, and, if you’re (un)lucky, a side of espionage.

The Kingsman shop — 11 Savile Row, City of Westminster, London
You can’t be a Kingsman without a tailored suit, right? 11 Savile Row is the real-life location of the Kingsman tailor shop – though it’s Huntsman & Sons on the outside. Drop by to soak in the atmosphere (but maybe don’t ask about secret underground spy lairs, just in case).
Eggsy’s car crash — Corbridge Crescent, Tower Hamlets, London
Remember that high-octane car chase where Eggsy gets in a bit of a scrape? It all goes down along Corbridge Crescent, near the canal in Cambridge Heath. The spot is just as dramatic in real life — minus the flipped cars, of course.

Kingsman movies: all you need to know
Who directed the Kingsman movies?
Matthew Vaughn is the creative genius behind the Kingsman movies, blending action, humor, and style in a way that’s become his signature. He not only directed but also co-wrote the first two movies, and he continues to shape the franchise’s direction.
How many Kingsman movies did they make?
So far, there are three Kingsman movies: The Secret Service (2014), The Golden Circle (2017), and The King’s Man (2021). Each one brings its own flair to the spy genre, with the latest being a prequel exploring the origins of the Kingsman organization.
Who is in the cast of Kingsman 1 and 2?
The main cast features Taron Egerton as the street-smart Eggsy, Colin Firth as the sophisticated spy Harry Hart, and Samuel L. Jackson as the eccentric villain Valentine in the first film. Mark Strong also plays a key role as Merlin, the tech-savvy Kingsman operative.
Is Kingsman 3 Related to 1 and 2?
Not exactly. The King’s Man (2021) is a prequel that dives into the early days of the Kingsman agency, setting the stage for the events in The Secret Service. It’s more of a historical look at the origins rather than a direct continuation of Eggsy’s story.
Will there be a Kingsman 4?
It looks like it! Rumors suggest a fourth installment is in the pipeline, potentially titled Kingsman: The Blue Blood. This film is expected to wrap up the story between Harry and Eggsy, so more spy action is definitely on the horizon.

Where was The King’s Man (2021) filmed?
The King’s Man takes you on a visual adventure across some seriously stunning spots in England and Italy. Think sweeping shots of Hankley Common’s rugged landscapes, the quaint charm of White Waltham’s countryside, and the historic vibes of London and Oxford, all coming together to transport you back to the early 1900s. And let’s not forget Italy — filming in the grand Venaria Reale and the streets of Turin adds that extra layer of old-world elegance.

How is The King’s Man related to Kingsman?
The King’s Man is all about the origins of the Kingsman organization, giving us the backstory that leads to the events of the first two movies. It’s a deep dive into the history that shaped the spy agency we see later on.
How is Argylle connected to Kingsman?
While Argylle is another spy thriller directed by Matthew Vaughn, it’s actually separate from the Kingsman universe. That said, if you’re a fan of Vaughn’s style in Kingsman, Argylle is definitely one to watch. There are even hints that the two worlds might cross paths in some way in the future!
