The Chamberlayne Gastropub Kensal Rise

Food and pints were a good value for quality. Mixed drinks were a bit on the pricey side (£11 for an Aperol Spritz). Kind of worth it for the outdoor seating though.

The food is pretty good, the drinks are pretty good - the dude at the bar wasn’t really helpful and kinda rude. I give every place 5 stars tbh so this is quite telling of how this interaction ruined the vibe.

Was there on a quiet Monday night. Good was exceptional. Had the chicken pie and have to say it was the best looking chicken pie I’ve ever seen and it was bloody delicious too. Mash and veg also great and the chicken jus/gravy was a delight. Bravo.

Great place to meet and have a drink, not so sure about the food as service becomes a little pushed when its busy and the wait increases significantly. Ordered two meals and whilst they were both fine it was disappointing one arrived about 10 minutes before the other, which spoilt the experience somewhat. Pub is clean, efficient bar staff but can get busy so getting a table probably means booking to be certain. Toilets clean. Be aware the pub is card only. In terms of cost I'd say theres a 10 -15% premium on other pubs in the area, none of which claim to be a "gastropub" as The Chamberlayne does, so bear that in mind. My advice, if you want to eat, book a table for early evening and then enjoy a few drinks post meal as if it does get busy the service may suffer.

"Absolutely phenomenal experience at the Chamberlayne Pub in Kensal Rise, all thanks to Nate! From his warm welcome to his impeccable service throughout the evening, Nate truly made our visit memorable. His knowledge of the menu and recommendations were spot-on, ensuring we had the most delicious meal. Not to mention, his cheerful demeanor and attentiveness made us feel right at home. If you're looking for top-notch service and a delightful dining experience, ask for Nate at the Chamberlayne Pub. 5 stars all the way!"

Me and my partner work in the area and we must say out of all the gastro pubs nearby this has to be our favourite! From the amazing food to the stylish decor the service from both the bar staff and the kitchen team are always outstanding. I often speak to both of the chefs and I must say talking with Chef Nate is consistently refreshing. Chef Nate is always upbeat and clearly loves what he does, he is always smiling and makes it a great vibe every time. Not to mention he makes the best Chocolate fondant! The food is always amazing—I couldn't recommend him and this place enough!

I had a Sunday roast here, at £27.50, for the beef roast I was expecting a good plate of food..... the meat was still mooing... (raw). I love medium rare... however this was completely rare. The potatoes were triple fried and hollow.. 1 carrot.. a tiny bit of savoy cabbage and 1 brocoli stem... I definitely will not be back for a roast, The staff are welcoming and helpful... toilets are a pain to get to...

It’s like Soho house but cooler!! Super cosy, lighting just perfect and staff/service warm, attentive and friendly. The roast we had was just perfect. Every aspect of it, presentation to taste was spot on. When you think the place can’t get any better, the Diet Coke turned to Guinness and it complimented the most delicious chocolate fondant. Most tasty Guinness I’ve had in a long time. Even the chefs are just as chirpy when I came back from the toilet. Clearly a very well ran establishment and can’t wait to come back.
