Eversholt Street starts at Euston Road, between Euston Square Gardens and Euston Fire Station. It travels north, including Euston House, the grade-II listed Royal George, the grade-II listed 64 Eversholt Street, the grade-II listed Church of St Mary the Virgin, the grade-II listed Eversholt House, and Camden Council's The Crowndale Centre which includes Camden Town Library. It joins Camden High Street at Mornington Crescent station. It also includes a controversial strip bar that is the subject of many articles in local newspapers.

The road was called "Seymour Street", as shown in the map from 1837 to the right. The road was renamed in 1940 due to the World War II. It took its name from Eversholt which is a village in Bedfordshire near Ampthill, which gave its name to Ampthill Square nearby. It in turn gives its name to Eversholt Rail Group.
