Great food, Wednesday night is burger night. 241 on the fab selection of burgers, with the meat from Soutars the butchers next door, really delicious . The best burgers around! Amazing service from May, virtually running the whole place! A relaxed and chilled out vibe. I love it❤️

Best burger ever! I had the Steak Out which consisted of beef patties, sirloin steak strips, onion rings and peppercorn sauce with a generous portion of chips on the side. The burger was gorgeously cooked to perfection and the sauce was lovely! :)

Rather a classy establishment, reassuringly pricey pints but not anything out the usual for a nicer place. Did not have any food so can’t comment on that aspect but the vibe was lovely alongside the cosy atmosphere with a beer garden to accompany.

Had a lovely late lunch there today. Interesting menu. I had a ribeye steak sandwich with rosemary and garlic fries. Steak cooked to perfection, medium rare, was so tender and tasty. Partner had the blue Monday burger with Cajun and chilli oil fries which he said was delicious, the burger was slightly pink which brought out the flavour, best burger he had tasted in ages! All in all had a great experience in The Camden. Staff were friendly and attentive. Thumbs up to the chef 👍 thank you.

We were only the second table in on a Saturday morning just after opening, arriving at 10:10. We ordered both food and coffees together soon after arriving. Coffees came out and then there was around 25 minutes between finishing these before any sign of food. The whole experience is just so slow. Too slow for a place that I wouldn’t describe as busy at all. The service is friendly enough, the food and prices are good and the bar itself is nice and chilled as a weekend breakfast/brunch place.

Experienced terrible customer service today at Camden in Poole. Me and my friend waited almost an hour for our food, when I asked the waitress where the food was, she vanished and never came back. Had to ask the manager who AGAIN failed to come back, despite me asking 2 additional times. Seemed too timid to advise us what was happening. Clearly the order was forgotten. When the food arrived, the poached eggs were terrible! So overcooked and basically boiled. Won’t be returning due to the appalling treatment!!

We came for Saturday lunch at 1.30 but were only offered a breakfast / brunch menu. We were told that they only started serving lunch from 3 pm!! Who wants porridge or pancakes at lunchtime? We were really puzzled by this. It was a shame as the lunch menu online looked great.

Despite being warned about the slow service upon entry (staffing issues), the atmosphere was pleasant, food delicious and the staff were accommodating, apologetic and friendly. We did have to wait a while for the food, but the atmosphere and ongoing quiz night kept us entertained. No appetiser, just the mains; didn't leave much room for the desert - as tempting as they sounded.

I have tried this bar for the first time, today. It is but 60 metres from my house, so I thought to be spontaneous. What I found was a busy yet relaxed atmosphere with friendly and professional staff, excellent quality food, and chilled drinks. The location is typically well-frequented, and a booking is highly recommended.

I have to agree with another reviewer that Camden is not enforcing the rules around households mixing. I visited on more than one occasion during tier 2 restrictions and there were clearly (mainly young men) sitting together who were not part of the same household or bubble. Not just one table either. Also not all ordering food but drinking plenty. I realise it’s taking away their revenues by enforcing the rules, which is regrettable and also could be difficult to spot or enforce under some circumstances, however it’s very blatant from where i’m sitting and other places are doing it correctly so why can’t Camden? Seems staff/management are probably turning a blind eye and don’t care as they are so young themselves so not worried about Covid, and are putting profits above safety and other customers. This place does great food but blatant disregard for enforcing the rules is disappointing, sorry.

I have been here a few times and always enjoy the laid back atmosphere. It's not expensive and we have had lunch here which was good value. Today we had 'chips in a box' and felt it worthy of mention. The chips are piled high with chicken bacon and cheese, in a box! Ridiculously good value for £5, very tasty and dare I say it.. probably amazing hangover food! I would recommend this place anytime but I felt the box chips were worthy of a post! Enjoy!!

Stopped here for a pre-dinner cocktail on Saturday night and selected a Long Island iced tea and a passion fruit mojito - both were only average in my experience. The bar however had a nice vibe and the staff were friendly. The bar was by no means full but presumably due to the acoustics, you literally had to shout to each other to be heard over the other customers.

We went for a quick breakfast at Camden's on Wednesday morning. Service was friendly but not silver, the restaurant although quiet, was full of atmosphere and the food was exceptional. The chef seemed wasted sending out plate after plate of perfectly cooked breakfast fayre without breaking sweat. Very enjoyable. Perfectly cooked bacon, spot on poached eggs, faultless. We weren't sure why there wasn't a queue for tables but, we'll certainly be first in line next time!

It was near empty but it took so long for an order to be taken I had to remind them I was there. I did't get the breakfast I ordered so I had to remind them what I did order. In between waiting for the full order to come no salt or pepper provided so I had to remind them. I asked 'if this was wind-up-a-customer day' and was told that there's no need to be rude because I was getting 'great service' and the tea and soft drink I had I wouldn't have to pay for. I didn't ask for anything more than what I ordered and I like to pay for what I ordered and I also like to tip. The only tip I can give is work harder on customer service because someone needs to remind them of those two words. Thinking you're providing 'great service' is delusional if it's plain to a customer it's anything but.

Shameful to see such a great looking place being let down by poor order processing and a tremendous amount of people getting the wrong food brought to their tables, or in some cases, not arriving until the other diner had finished their food. I will NOT be returning to either the Ashley cross or Westbourne premises due to bad experiences at both establishments.Something is going very very wrong when you can't even bring two full English breakfast orders to the table at the same time!

I visited with 4 friends for Sunday breakfast. We were welcomed at the door and seated in a booth. It's nice and spacious inside and tables aren't packed in, so you don't feel as though you're sitting on top of the people next to you. The decor is bright and creates a good ambience. Our drinks order was taken quickly and then our food order. We thought it was a bit odd that our waitress requested we didn't make too many changes to the menu, as they were expecting a rush of orders in the kitchen in the next 5 minutes.........but the place was only about half full.......but anyway we placed our order (changing a couple of things with no problem!). The Eggs Benedict were to die for, with perfect poached eggs and crispy bacon. The Breakfast Burrito was also a hit. The menu isn't vast, but it seems what they do, they do very well. Prices are pretty good too, a great place for a delicious breakfast. Will definitely be going back.

We have been frequenting Camden Bar for a couple of years now, and one which we enjoy going to very much. However in recent months my partner and I have noticed a bit of a decline in service and occasionally food. However this Saturday to our pleasant surprise we were given a happy and friendly welcome by Kate (who used to work at the bar frequently). It was brilliant, she made us feel so welcome again and service was rapid and thorough. The attention to detail is what we had missed (and her coffees with the patterns)! Our friends were in the bar a few weeks ago when she made them a delicious mojito and margarita as well. We especially enjoy the burgers, they are delicious and the choices of toppings etc are very good. Overall we'd recommend this bar to all. We will be back once more!

Came here for breakfast, unfortunately the place was so busy that the service suffered.They had 1 person taking orders, whilst 2 young staff cleaned cutlery and another did the drinks.We had to get our own menus after waiting for 10 mins to be acknowledged we were there. Drinks took a further 20 mins to arrive and food arrived 45 mins after we sat down.We were informed there would be a short delay with food as there were a number of big tables in, but that shouldn't be an excuse. Have staff on with a bit more savvy than younger staff, that can't seem to cope under pressure or know how to deal with difficult situations or be supervised by an experienced staff member at least.When the food arrived, the poached eggs were cold and had to be sent back and the 2nd round of drinks we ordered, we had to remind them at least 3 times.To be fair the person in charge of the ordering, reduced our total bill because of the error with the eggs.These issues marred what would have been a good meal. I would go back, but they can't seem to cope when it's busy, even more so since they extended the venue.

I have been here before on my birthday and there was a very cosy and friendly atmosphere. The menu was quite reasonable, different choices than most restaurants, but quite overpriced for what were actually small portions. There were no special offers and the actual menu was just pieces of paper that had no professional aspect at all. My friend and I went for the home-made burgers with fries which were just under ten pounds each. We waited about 35 minutes and we were getting quite frustrated as there were only four other people in the place.The burgers, however, were worth the wait. Succulent and presentation was lovely. The white house wine was lovely and the service was good. I don't think I would rush back as the small aspects that I have criticised have put me off as I have been there before and I was quite disappointed. However, it was worth trying for the burgers!

A warm welcome and great service await you at the Camden! Contemporary feel with scrubbed wooden tables and exposed bricks , candlelight and great food. I can recommend the chorizo and prawn skewer and the bruschetta with shallots and goats cheese, but the menu is varied with good portion sizes. If you want a quiet, intimate evening this is not for you. There is a young vibe to Camden and the music is a little loud, but the staff are fun, helpful and offer prompt service with a smile! Definitely one to return to and if you haven t been give it a go!

I came in to camden yesterday (Friday) to do some work and grab something to eat. The waitress and the waiter were friendly right from the moment I got in to when I left, could not fault them at all, smiley and helpful! I decided to have a burger and cannot fault it either, really delicious!If you are ever in the Ashley cross area and want something tasty with a nice atmosphere, then I would recommend here. I will definitely be coming back!

Lazy Sunday afternoon - went to Camden for lunch and a couple of drinks. Food was variable - I enjoyed the burger but my wife had a wrap which had little in it and was fridge cold despite being char grilled. Nice surroundings but spoiled somewhat by immature attitude of the waitress. Maybe we just caught them on a bad day - will try them again and hopefully have a more positive review next time

My Friends and I have been coming to Camden ever since it first opened. We loved the banana pancakes and location - We used to enjoy the quiz night and are all for supporting local businesses. Every time we came in there was always one thing that would be a little hit and miss, the chef would have toyed with a new pancake recipe, different size and texture, bananas coming and going, sides changing. Someday's we'd have syrup and cinnamon butter, other days no cinnamon butter. Was this on purpose? Or had the waitresses forgot? Regardless, trivial matter really so we still come along.Once I came in with my mum and ordered the full breakfast only to be disappointed that it looked like half of it was missing. Perhaps this is the trendy way to eat breakfast now, in half portions. No biggy, just remember not to order it the next time - Still we come again.Another time we sat to breakfast and it took 45 minutes for my friend to get toast! The waitress had no explanation for it and couldn't seem to hurry the process up, she just apologised for the delay. Still, we're not unreasonable people - We get that things happen, perhaps it was a busy day, so we carry on politely and still we come again.Often the food will take 45 mins to get to us, but me and my friends love getting together for a chat and so we tend to just turn a blind eye to the fact that it takes longer than what realistically is acceptable. The point of all this being that despite there always being something worthy of complaint, we continue to come and provide good custom because we are descent people and well probably because were British, and only know how to be polite.However today's experience has tipped it. After first being told that we couldn't be seated together as it was so busy (despite having expanded your premise), my friends and I split into two groups. No real biggy again, we are happy to be accommodating. After waiting 20 mins for our drinks, they arrive, but we're given one single teapot between 4 of us because you apparently haven't anticipated the increased volume of customers the expansion of your premises would have caused. But again, we overlook. The waitress asks to take our order and this is where the aforementioned last straw is about to strike.At the request of my fiend who was having the Camden breakfast to not have black pudding but instead replace it with a hash brown, (a simple enough request especially given we had already asked for an extra side order as well) your waitress turned and asked us "If you could try not to be so fussy with your orders, you know cus we're really busy and I don't want to give the chef a seizure". "I'm sorry, what?" We ask - to which she repeats her statement.I would love to know why your ability to run a restaurant or your chefs ability to cater to a simple request has to weigh on our paying shoulders? We can't make a simple request due to the fragile structuring of your business? Perhaps your chefs mental well-being should have been established before you sort to expand your premises and put undue pressure on him that in turn would be blamed on us, your polite customers. I'm not sure if she was being brave or hideously stupid but how dare she make that request of us. Not even politely either - She inferred that we, the overly accommodating customer, had been fussy.We have been model customers for such a long time, really being more polite than we maybe needed to be on occasion but with her comment it suddenly dawned on me that your really not that great a place and its only because we let so many irritations slide that we've been allowing you to take our money from us for so long.But thanks to your infuriating waitress, the rose tinted glasses have been lifted and I don't think any of us are under the illusion that Camden is worth giving money to any more so we wont be coming back - And it will be this final experience that we share with colleagues and friends. The fact the beans on all 3 veggie breakfast were cold when it finally came out, we couldn't even be bothered to comment on - Don't want to be seen to be making a fuss now do we. Oh and the fact the waitress also forgot to bring the extra order of hash browns out as well! Well this will just be known from now on as Classic Camden.

Come here often just for their breakfast; they do the best eggs benedict in town and a flat white to die for! Haven't had much of their other food as this is enough to make me come back again and again on its own! Great atmosphere and staff make this a great choice for the morning after!

We wanted Pina Poke take away, we were prepared to collect but they only do delivery which was great, less than half an hour and the food was great. Had a salmon meal and the fresh fish was gorgeous

Disclaimer. I have never been to this museum. I've been to Poole many times in the past but not for a few decades. So why am I posting a review? See the attached image which appeared on Reddit today and I'm doing my best to distribute the awesome wholesomeness this museum promotes. When I do go to Poole next, this museum will be my first port of call.
