We came here for my step daughter’s 21st and it was epic. Returned as just a couple yesterday and food and drink are still wonderful. Must return one evening in the week to try the regular menu.

Food centred, but just wanted a couple of drinks. Lots of people not sure whether to sit down and wait for table service or stand by the door or go to the bar. Offered two stools against the wall, ordered drinks, and waited. Eventually left because we had better things to do

I had such a nice moment with my friends for a Saturday lunch. The food was incredible, from the salads to the beef pie, everything tasted fresh and high quality. On top of that the service was a 10/10, the waitress paid attention to any details which are rare in London nowadays so we appreciated the lunch even more.

Can’t believe it took me so long to try this South London gem which also happens to be local to us. It was recommended by a colleague to my chef partner particularly for their Sunday roast and I have to say we were not disappointed. We went for dinner on a Saturday night, it was busy and buzzy but the service was friendly and absolutely impeccable which -given current standards in London for my experience- it came almost as a surprise. Food was delicious, a melt-in-the mouth Hot Cured Salmon with a creamy beetroot Russian salad, Cavolo nero, blood orange and watermelon radish, truly refreshing and a steak to share as a main, juicy and perfectly medium rare. Let’s not forget the best chips I have ever had, clearly home made. We got back the following Sunday for the roast and shared a juicy chicken, coming with greens and an extra side of roast potatoes (maybe not as outstanding as the chips but still really good). The service, again, super friendly and flawless. The wine liste by the bottle is quite interesting (but not mind blowing), perhaps they could have more choices by the glass but still a decent selection. They don’t really need my recommendation as they’re always fully booked but for once I can happily say that it’s worth the hype

We could not have chosen a better venue for our post-wedding lunch and evening reception. We had a fantastic time, the food was excellent, and all the bar staff were lovely and provided a great service to us and all of our guests. The vegetarian meals were delicious and didn't feel like an afterthought, as can often be the case with vegetarian options. We loved that the meal ingredients were seasonal and even the non-vegetarian meals were very veg forward. The ginger cake and custard dessert was also excellent and everyone loved it. They were very accommodating of our last-minute changes and our party turning up earlier than expected. We cannot thank them enough, they made our day so special. We would highly recommend them to anyone.

A warm room filled with the friendly bustle of a neighbourhood pub. The food is excellent for a pub, but my one gripe is that it is gratuitously greasy. The „pork-fat” toast is soaked in lard by design. But then, the „buttered” greens, noodles, fish… all swim in pools of melted butter as well. The salad vinaigrette has the thickness of mayonnaise, smothering out any mustardy tang; the horseradish sauce is creamed to the point of being a thick white blob with no bite. Adding lashings of fat is a shortcut to make meat and vegetables look shiny and taste indulgent, but it’s a trick that then leaves the eater feeling heavy and groggy after a single plate of food. Please consider being a bit more balanced to let proper cooking shine through. (Or offer the sauces on the side…)

I can't say I was terribly impressed with this place. Wanted to book drinks here for my 21st and we had a table because that seemed to be the only way to reserve seats. One member of staff definitely dampened the evening, seemed quite passive aggressive about the fact we weren't all buying food and just a bit judgemental in general. Hospitality is a draining job and I understand it might have seemed odd when we had a table, but I didn't understand the controversy of going to a pub and just getting drinks. We were students behaving respectfully and, although we didn't get a meal we DID buy food and drinks. There was just an odd energy and definitely not welcoming, although this does not apply to all members of staff and I'm sure no harm was meant. Just a shame we all picked up on it. Funnily enough, the bits we did order involved a mix up where we seemed to receive a rogue pot of oil that no one ordered! We also wanted chips however it was soon revealed to us that there were none. Gutted paha

At our meeting point at the round table, much like the last supper, we were judged by a higher power, out of our control - what ever happened to eating communion in peace. additionally, despite being a vegetarian, i felt a chasm open in my very core once i heard that, the kitchen was indeed out of roast chicken. poor showing. though we apologise deeply to the diva who was confused enough to question what we ordered - we understand that its hard to understand why people booked a table and then only drank and ate minimally, as it is clear her business to inquire. clearly. i must admit, it was nice to be fully immersed in the highly coveted aesthetic of starving victorian street urchin eating the last rations - especially when the chips we were told were no longer able to be created - it was thrilling to see what was stolen go to the deserving. it also felt like a re-enactment of the spanish inquisition when asking for the bill, keep being playful divas, never let the customers know your next move xx i don’t think i’ll be running into your Camberwell arms again, but, i was amused do know, that Morley’s was far more enjoyable

The Camberwell Arms is a delightful gastropub that effortlessly blends a cozy, laid-back atmosphere with elevated cuisine. Located in the heart of Camberwell, this spot is perfect for those who appreciate simple, high-quality food in a relaxed yet refined setting. Ambience The moment you step in, you’re greeted by a warm and inviting space with rustic wooden tables, dimmed lighting, and an unmistakable neighborhood charm. The buzzing chatter of happy diners and the friendly staff make you feel instantly at home. It’s a place where you can unwind without any pretense. Food & Drinks The menu is seasonal and thoughtfully curated, emphasizing fresh, locally sourced ingredients. It’s not overly long, but every dish feels like a standout. Their roast dinners, particularly the beef or lamb, are a must-try—succulent, perfectly cooked, and served with all the trimmings. The smaller plates, like their house-made terrines and inventive salads, are excellent for sharing and showcase a keen eye for flavor combinations. The wine list is equally impressive, with a selection that complements the menu beautifully. There are also some great craft beers and classic cocktails for those seeking variety. Service The staff at Camberwell Arms are attentive, knowledgeable, and clearly passionate about what they do. They’re more than happy to recommend dishes or pairings, adding a personal touch to the experience. Value For the quality of food and service, the pricing is more than reasonable. It strikes a great balance between being indulgent and affordable, making it a fantastic choice for both casual meals and special occasions. Final Thoughts Camberwell Arms is a testament to what a gastropub should be: great food, excellent service, and an atmosphere that keeps you coming back. Whether you’re a local or just

I held my birthday/baby party in the upstairs room at the Camberwell Arms on Saturday lunchtime. Everything about it was excellent. The correspondence with Josefin who works in the events team prior was very consistent and she was incredibly helpful with arranging everything to ensure it all went to plan. The staff on the day were very friendly and did a fantastic job setting up the room to make it look beautiful. The food was absolutely phenomenal. Every single bit of it was delicious and a lot of my friends said they hadn't tasted food that good in a pub for as long as they could remember. Although I was too full to eat it, my fiancee said that the cheese that was provided was all of a very high quality. All in all, a fantastic afternoon and I would highly recommend to anyone wanting to hold a private party.

I used to be a regular at The Camberwell Arms, but I stopped until recently, I went for Sunday lunch this week and was thoroughly disappointed. Unfortunately, it seems to be living off its past glory. The only options available were "dishes for two," which lacked any freshness and tasted as though they had been pre-cooked well in advance. The pork was tough and unappealing, the gravy was watery and completely tasteless, and the carrots were overcooked and over-salted to the point of being inedible. Even the roast potatoes, which should be the highlight of any Sunday roast, were rubbery and unappetising. The overall experience was lacklustre, and the food felt rushed and uninspired. I expected much better for the price and the reputation of this establishment. Sadly, I won’t be returning.

Sunday at the Camberwell Arms lunch was a major disappointment. The limited "dishes for two" on offer lacked freshness and tasted as though they had been pre-prepared. The meat was tough and flavourless, the roast potatoes were rubbery and cold, and the overall meal felt uninspired and poorly executed. The experience fell far short of the standard one would expect for the price and the venue’s reputation. I personally wouldn’t revisit as there are so many other pubs like the Canton Arms offering better quality food at a similar price point

We had our wedding reception at The Camberwell Arms back in September, and we couldn’t have been happier with the entire experience. From the start, Josefin was fantastic in helping us plan the day. She was responsive, attentive to every detail, and went above and beyond to bring our vision to life. The food was exceptional. Wedding meals can often be a bit underwhelming, but Mike and his team created a menu that our guests are still talking about. The dishes were full of flavour, beautifully presented, and exactly the kind of food people wanted to eat—seasonal, hearty, and delicious. The venue worked perfectly for our celebration. We used the downstairs for our drinks reception and dinner, which was cosy and intimate, and then we moved upstairs for dancing. The team made sure the day flowed smoothly, making it all feel effortless. The Camberwell Arms is perfect if you're looking for a welcoming, relaxed atmosphere, a fantastic team and incredible food and drink. It was exactly the kind of unpretentious yet special wedding we had hoped for. We’re so grateful to the team for making our day so memorable and would 100% recommend it to anyone planning a wedding or event!

Dimly lit pub with an open kitchen, with very much a restaurant feel. The food was very good. Cocktails and wines were also good. Unfortunately the service was poor on the evening we visited. It was a quiet Monday evening but the waitress got some of our order wrong, seemed to forget about us on several occasions and we were frequently having to look around to get attention from the staff despite them being quiet and overstaffed. Hope to try again, with improved service!

Encontré The Camberwell Arms en un par de listas de los 100 mejores gastropubios, con menciones específicas sobre su asado dominical no tradicional a precios razonables. Reservé asientos en el bar para 2 aproximadamente un mes de antelación en línea, lo cual es muy recomendable porque obtener una reserva parece difícil y el comedor no es enorme. Viajar a The Camberwell requiere planificación. Está a media hora en autobús al sur del mercado del condado, así que el restaurante no está en un barrio que muchos turistas se aventuran. Está en una zona residencial, y tendrás que estar atento a la señalización del restaurante o te la perderás. El viaje a este barrio definitivamente vale la pena el trekking. Este fue literalmente uno de los 2 mejores restaurantes en los que comí durante una estancia de 5 días en Londres. La comida era genial; pedimos el asado dominical de cordero, que estaba elegantemente sazonado y tenía un sabor tan abundante, y venía con 2 lados - - col con alcaparras, y patatas que eran esponjosas por dentro y deliciosamente crujientes por fuera. El menú dice que este domingo el asado alimenta 2 - 3, pero posiblemente podría alimentar más; comimos tanto que no tuvimos espacio para el postre, así que tendremos que esperar hasta nuestra próxima visita. Otros aspectos destacados: El servicio era acogedor y amable. El ambiente era sin pretensiones, fresco y limpio, y tenían una lista de reproducción impresionante. En el bar, vimos al personal zumbando para elaborar todos los lados sabrosos, postres y ensaladas. Las familias estaban allí con niños, y los amigos con perros.

I was treated to dinner here on a busy Saturday night. The service was exceptionally good, the food original and inventive and the wine delicious. As a bumpkin from Yorkshire I was staggered by the bill. I think £65 per head was a shock for simple delicious two (not always three) courses of food, one (or two) puds, and a few glasses of wine (no bottles). But the clientele was young, gifted and moneyed. It was a pleasure to be a part of their world!

Service: The staff were friendly, approachable and were helpful when it came to answering questions about the dishes. Main: We ordered the lamb sharer for two. The meat itself was tasty, and the flavour profile was lovely. We were told that it was lamb leg, however it was very fatty and I found it hard to believe it was leg. The portion of lamb was small, definitely not enough for two, so when factoring in the fat there was even less meat. The lamb was sat atop leeks and peas, which were nice, but they were swimming in a very thin watery stock. Sides: The beans with flaked nuts were delicious but overpriced at ~£11. Similarly the heritage tomato dish was overpriced for the size of the portion. I would have been happier paying ~£9 for each dish. Again flavours great, but portions underwhelming. Wine: Excellent selection! Value for money: Poor. £122 for a few small cuts of tasty yet fatty lamb, some beans and tomatoes and a couple of glasses of wine. Left unsatisfied and not full. I personally wouldn’t revisit as there are so many other pubs like the Canton Arms offering similar quality food at a similar price point - yet the offerings are larger.

We were lucky enough to have our wedding here and every single little detail of the day was well considered and executed with ease and total style. We thought the communication leading up the day was great, we had lots of information and appreciated being allowed to get in earlier to set up the room. Every person we met or came into contact with was helpful, kind, accommodating and really knowledgeable. Given that we were on a bit of a budget, at no point did we feel we were being pressured to spend more or unnecessarily upgrade wines etc and we really liked that we had a variety of different price options so we could stick within our budget. The fact that we chose the house white for a very reasonable price and everyone still commented on how nice it was demonstrates how well every part of the menu is designed. On the day itself, the food went way beyond expectations and almost every single guest commented on the amazing quality of ingredients ...."how have they made lettuce taste so nice?!". This is some of the best food you can have in London and it is served in a welcoming, familial surroundings which was exactly what we wanted for our wedding. The day and service felt relaxed and warm, it was organised but didn't feel overly regimented and we were so well looked after by everyone. Having a sound system and being allowed to have a low key party into the evening was really nice.

We hired out the whole pub for our wedding, and eery part of the day felt perfect. So much care was taken to make it feel really personal to us. We felt we were in such capable and expert hands with Josefin helping plan and coordinate everything. On the day itself, we really couldn’t have asked for more. The food was absolutely delicious, the bar ran so efficiently that nobody had to wait for drinks. People particularly complimented the cocktails, and the delicious food throughout the day.

We hosted our wedding here in the upstairs private room having been regulars at the restaurant for a few years and couldn’t have asked for a better night! All our guests commented on how lovely the food was and how delicious the drinks were, plus the staff were so accommodating. Would recommend to anyone.

We had our wedding dinner / party at Camberwell Arms and it was an incredible experience from start to finish, I couldn't recommend it enough! Josefin and the events team were extremely professional, communicative, and accommodating over the course of our planning. On the day, everyone was raving about the food (we went for the lamb!), the service, and the atmosphere! We danced the whole night and had an amazing time. Major thank you to the Camberwell Arms team for making our big day so special!

My husband & I organised a lunch in the private dining room last Saturday & we had the most amazing time. The food was absolutely delicious & service was perfection. Special shout out to Flora, who went out of her way to ensure we were really well looked after. We'll definitely book another event in the future.

The best spot in Camberwell. The team are always lovely and the food is always impressively inspiring and nostalgic at the same time.

The perfect Sunday lunch. Lamb shoulder was full of flavour, the beer onions/scotch bonnet pork on toast were a particular highlight within the extremely high standard. Tall ceilings and old school building with a modern twist makes a chilled but classy vibe. Doesn’t get much better!

Been waiting to go here for a long time for a roast dinner. It was mid at best, especially for the price. Left very disappointed after craving a good roast. Wouldn't go for a roast here again but would be interested to try something else on their menu. Service was great though!

Food was nice enough, but the ordering policy is annoying and took a while to sort out due to most Sunday menu dishes only being offered for sharing between 2 or 3. This meant that some of our group had to choose something they didn't really want. What happens if you're eating alone? Or with one other person who wants something different?

Amazing venue for our wedding lunch this summer. The team were great to deal with before the event, and the day itself was absolutely brilliant - lovely room, amazing food (and generous portions), fab staff and service - all our guests mentioned how much they loved it. Thank you Camberwell Arms for making our day extra special ❤️

Great gastropub with an open kitchen and a lot of courage when it comes to seasoning, great!

We had a pre-wedding celebration meal here for 22 people with family and friends and so hired the private room which comes with its own bar (huge plus in South London as not many places do). The Camberwell Arms offered a great value set menu for groups and was perfectly set up for events - we filled out a form opting for a sparkling reception, liaised with us about a table plan and place cards and decorated the table with flowers free of charge. It was an amazing place for our event and we were looked after so well. The food in particular was amazing - everybody commented on it - and perfect for sharing. The staff were just lovely and we were so well looked after, they even provided a playlist for the event. I would really recommend considering the private room here for parties and celebrations if you want to make it special and memorable. Thank you Camberwell Arms - we will be back!

Store place, why did it take me so long to jump on an o ground and come here? Lamb ribs are a must! Great wine list, too. Extra thanks for the sound absorbing panels.

I thought I was just going to a pub in Camberwell. I can without reservation say that the experience I had was 5 star. Excellent beer( Flotzinger) , an excellent menu and the best focaccia I have ever had. Great staff and a great atmosphere. Treat yourself to the Camberwell Arms, you will not be disappointed.

Really lovely visit to the Camberwell arms! Arrived at 4:00pm to a few things already sold out on the menu so offered a glass of fizz as an apology ! Throughly enjoyed the recommendation of the Hebridean lamb to share! Great atmosphere, hospitality and food ! We will be back

We had our wedding reception at the Camberwell Arms and couldn’t have made a better choice. The lovely upstairs room was a perfect fit for our 35 guests (including 12 teens) and we were expertly looked after making it a very memorable day. Food was excellent, service smooth, and they were very accommodating to our individual requirements. Highly recommended for any special occasion.

Fish was tough and chips hard rather than crispy. Terrible food.

Very satisfied with the double smash burger (I’m a smash connoisseur). Fries are well executed with a touch of rosemary. Coke served with a slice of lemon by default, love attention to details.

Das Essen war großartig, das Personal freundlich und lustig. Dazu waren die Preise passend. Eventuell muss man etwas warten, um einen der wenigen Sitzplätze zu bekommen. Man kann das Essen aber auch mitnehmen.
