Taste of Chamberlayne in Brent - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Taste cafe in Kensal Rise is a gem of a place to eat and enjoy chilling. I had the delicious halloumi and roasted veg ciabatta toasted sandwich and a double macchiato. The sandwich was delicious and the coffee strong as I like it. The decor is a kind of distressed , antique furniture look which I also liked as they had not bought the furniture and chairs new, but had probably sourced from local antique shops. It has a really nice, chilled vibe and the service was excellent. Highly recommended and will definitely go back as I live locally.

Everything was just beautiful, food was fresh, crunchy and luscious. Service was with a smile, would recommend to anyone!

This cafe has the most gorgeous food with lots of veggie options. The service was great and has a stunning interior. Will defintley be back here and recommending to my friend’s

No he estado aquí durante mucho tiempo porque ya no vivo localmente y este era el único lugar abierto en Kensal Rise para tomar un café, así que pedí un blanco plano que era muy agradable, fuerte pero cremoso.

El desayuno era bueno, teníamos huevos revueltos con tocino en tostadas y huevos Benedict. Los huevos estaban líquidos. . . tal como deberían ser. . . El lugar es lindo y el servicio fue rápido y puntual para dos personas hambrientas. Sí. . . En realidad fue muy agradable. . . Volveremos Gracias.

I've been here a few times for breakfast and always leave feeling satisfied. I usually order the eggs benedict and add bacon to it. I've taken friends here as well and they've been happy with it. I've had lunch here once and got the toasted sandwich which was fairly average but not bad for £6.

Come succede in Inghilterra Londra tutto è molto più caro che nelle nostre zone ma almeno qui abbiamo mangiato bene. Buoni dolci e cappuccino ottimo da far concorrenza a molti italiani. Il caffè preso dopo ha lasciato un pò a desiderare ma il resto è stato ottimo.

Came for a breakfast. Ordered Americano and Eggs Benedict with ham - £12.05 Coffee is very good and atmoshere is nice, however, Eggs Benedict arrived cold and it's really average..made from cheap products (bun & ham), really not worth paying £9.75 for the eggs...get a sandwich instead!

I love this new service with Dilveroo . Havent had such a good Club Sandwich that I remember . Fresh and homemade . The side mixed Salad was delicious too . Great stuff . only missing dessert menu from Massipica ... that would be heaven .. the cake made of Chocolate and Almonds ....... :)

It may be inappropriate to say, but I tend to visit this little place when I've been at the wine too heavily the night before. Thursdays have taken over Friday's, dangerous territories etc but help is at hand because TOC do delicious toasted sandwiches, in which case the Mozzarella, Avocado & Sun dried Tomatoes is particularly hard to beat. With lashings of black pepper and delicious coffee on tap (make mine an Americano), well I'm pretty much set for the day.

Breakfast with my wife and son was very tasty. The quality was superb and coffee very good too. A little pricey but you get what you pay for. I real treat.

I'm a regular here and enjoy the friendly Mediterranean vibe and quirky country cafe decor as much as the great coffee and nice treats. My favourite for lunch is the chicken shawarma wrap or salad but also partial to the bacon and egg sandwich for a late breakfast bite or brunch. The owners are very personable and I almost feel like a member of the family now after coming here for the past 5 years since moving into the neighbourhood. It's generally a great place to meet friends for a quiet natter away from the madding crowd, or otherwise to come and blog (as I often do) using the good Wifi they have there

Too noisy to enjoy the food or drinks and poor choices of beer - it used to be good for real ales but the choices now are poor - think a bit of homework needs to be done by the pub on this - we used to love coming here but it is not the quality it used to be - hard to get a decent pint

A basic cafe serving tasty cappuccinos with a good selection of scones and cakes. Especially try the cheesecake quite yummy!

The first thing that needs to be clarified is that Taste is not, as one reviewer mistakenly suggests, a gastro pub that specialises in steaks, but a cafe that specialises in snacks and light meals. The gastro pub in question is The Chamberlayne, which is situated further up Kensal Rise nearer to the station. Taste itself is a relatively recent addition to the many eateries that Kensal Rise and Queens Park are blessed with, and has quickly become one of personal favourites. First, it serves decent coffee (though the portions could be more generous for the price). Second, it offers a good range of sweet and savoury snacks and light meals, in addition to a variety of squeezed-to-order juices and an Italian-inspired range of other soft drinks. Third, it has a pleasant, welcoming ‘rustic’ ambience. Fourth, service is prompt and friendly and nobody tries to hurry you out – so a good place for itinerant lap-top users! Fifth, though it’s a relatively small place you can nearly always find a seat. (There are also seats outside, on the road.) Sixth, they play a lot of ‘sixties music: not to everyone’s taste, I know, but the volume is sufficiently low as to go unnoticed if you’re working, reading or having a conversation. Prices are as high as you’d expect in this neck of the woods, but the food is tasty and prepared with care. It’s probably good to know that the place has a Food Hygiene rating of 3 - which might not sound great but which is perfectly acceptable and higher than a number of other eateries in the area.
