The Camberwell Arms

Part of time outs Londons top Sunday roasts. Deserves to be in there. Food is excellent and at a high standard. Only drawback is it’s quite pricey.

Great food with the family. Good choice for meat eaters and veggies. Had the half spit chicken for 2, the beef rump for 2 and Farinata for 2. Friendly knowledgeable service. Did have a lush pudding but can't remember it's name...not much left as you see from pictures.

The food was really tasty, yet expensive, but if you are sharing you really should provide some serving spoons to the table, as it is designed to be shared? We arrived later, but there was no beef or lamb left by the point we sat down. I would suggest booking early for these. Speisekarte ansehen

We booked here on the recommendation of our Airbnb hosts for celebrating both a birthday and graduation. However there was nothing celebratory about it. The atmosphere was dead (only 1 other table with a young couple). The waiter was not particularly friendly. The food was good but a bit pretentious. Overpriced and not worth it.

Lovely food, prepared in front of us as we sat at the bar. Like having your own window into a masterclass on cooking and presenation. Wonderful staff serving us Flora, in particular, was great! with a positive, welcoming, knowledgeable attitude and approach. (Perhaps the music was a little loud, but it just meant that we leant our heads together to chat) Why haven't you been there, yet?

A popular SE5 pub in the middle of a terrace easy to miss but a mistake to do so. Sunday lunch had dab and other excellent intros. Four of us had roast chicken with a fabulously moreish spinach and yoghurt dressing which mingled with gravy and excellent spuds. No useless bulky unnecessary Yorkshires here. No 5 had an excellent lamb dish with veg. Gorgeous all round. We were at a 1 Star the week before (not reviewed) thinking of suggesting they come here for a flavour upgrade. Jolly and attentive staff. Speisekarte ansehen

Every single thing about the food was superb. We had fish to start and also the most amazing bread, cheese and tomato dish. We then shared the hoggart, and had masses to take home in doggy bags that then did for dinner as well. Dessert was also bang on the money. A really excellent martini to start and then a nice glass of house red and a decent selection of beer on tap. My only room for improvement comment is that the service was a little surly, but at that age I wasn’t exactly perky on a Sunday either. A thoroughly enjoyable meal, and I think currently the best traditional style roast in London at the moment. Excited to return.

We booked the Camberwell arms weeks in advance due to popularity. So before we arrived at the restaurant I had heard amazing reviews best roast in London and was extremely excited to visit. However, after my Sunday lunch visit to the restaurant I have never left a restaurant feeling more disappointed. First of all the staff were all looked like they wanted to be else where and poured are drink of the table. Secondly we had the chiefs roast not by choice as at 3pm in the afternoon youd sold out. What kind of restaurant runs out of Sunday lunch by 3pm. The chicken roast consisted of three items chicken without gravy, 4 roast potatoes which had been left under the heat lamp which ment they were...

We booked a table at 9:15. We were seated next to the bar. Some blokes were ordering pints of Guinness and lager at the bar. We had to ask them to move before seating down ad we literally didn’t have no space between them and our table. We felt we were place out there without any care. The waitress arrived and there wasn’t any steak or fillet or any meat. They didn’t have hake either. It was shocking as 1/2 of the menu was gone. Only small plates to combine with the non existent protein. Why offer tables after 9pm if you can’t offer the same service/ food as at 7pm? We felt like we were taking the left overs. We left. End up in FM Mangal. Not by choice but because we were hungry. It turns ou... Speisekarte ansehen
