London Restaurants within a 5 minute walk of Chalk Farm Station | Ratings, Reviews & Maps

I'm in London to visit friends, but had a day to myself. Because it was Sunday, I was searching for places that served a Sunday roast. So I walked a few miles to this place, through the pulsating Camden. I ended up in this nice and quiet area, at this extremely cozy place, which was neatly decorated for Christmas, and Christmas music playing, adding to the experience in a good way! At the bar, I was met by this lovely woman who showed me to my table. I need to specifically highlight her, as she showed me what great service is. It didn't take long for my roast and beer to arrive. As I dug in, I just started smiling. The food was so good, packed with flavor, some crunch from the vegetables. The carrot and potatoes were perfectly done. And the beer complimented it all really well. I LOVE doing random things like this, and everyone else going here after me, will not walk away disappointed. Thank you for having me!

Good food and drinks, if a bit slow service. Catches the sun nicely outside but big doors open to make the inside nice too. Came here for 7pm on a Thursday and waited an hour for any food to come out. Wasn't told upfront. Lady serving food was doing it all on her own and super busy, she was so happy when we checked in on her and said no-one ever asks how she is!! Dog friendly, loads of them! Didn't have to book either but was busy.

I was charged me £3 for a pint of a soda water and the vegetarian pizza which was suppose to have courgettes had 4 “slivers” across the whole pizza with a very few other ingredients on there too for £15. Staff super friendly, but the margin squeeze on customers is a bit of a joke.

Well known and well regarded pub. Letting it self down recently with loud music during the day but on plus side they have added a good beer to the taps

Came on a busy Saturday afternoon. Had the sharing platter which was basic but satisfying a pint. The crowd at the time was a nice mix of families and younger people. A nice change of pace if you don't want to go into the deep end of Camden market. The beer garden is cozy but well decorated and places together. We wanted to try the picnic menu but it has to be booked 2 days in advance so keep that in mind. Otherwise, we were satisfied with what we ordered and the staff were friendly

The Pembroke is easily my favourite pub in Primrose Hill. The staff are really friendly and always greet you with a smile, and work well together as a team. There is a great selection of beers and ales on tap, along with a wide variety of spirits. The food is lovely and I particularly recommend the pies - both the steak and venison and chicken and pancetta pies are delicious. The beer garden is a great sun spot and they welcome dogs. I would recommend this pub to anyone visiting the area. Keep up all the great work Pembroke Team

The food is quite good for a pub and I highly recommend the burgers. The service is what brings me in though. They have a very good team and most will take the time to get to know you better. And during good weather, the outdoor patio is perfect and certainly one of the best in the area. But again, it's the service that brings me back. Great team and management.

Very nice pub, less hectic than Camden! We had spicy chicken burgers which were lush, big variety of drinks and staff was very lovely and accommodating. Definitely recommend!

This place is a true gem! Though in a portentous neighbourhood this felt like a true English pup. The staff brought us complimentary champagne as seen on our reservation we were on our honeymoon! The staff were very attentive and the food through smaller portions it was still great food!

Was luckily enough to spend the afternoon at Cotton’s Camden this weekend with some friends for their brunch. A few things to note. Having never been here before I really felt I had been missing out on an absolute gem of a restaurant. The staff could not be more friendly and their rum collection is amazing. Food-wise, the brunch offer is fab. 3 courses and, if you are so inclined, bottomless rum punch or prosecco. And when I say bottomless, I am very serious. I went with the rum punch option and never saw the bottom of my glass. Having been lucky enough to have spent some time in the Caribbean I can also say that Cotton’s rum punch is as deceptively boozy as you’ll get at any beach shack. The food was beautiful. Their jerk is spicy but not too much and everything was beautifully cooked. We had the best couple of hours and will happily come back again. Go check it out.

Had some of the best jerk chicken this side of London! Food was absolutely delicious, the decor is so lovely and the atmosphere is so inviting. All the staff are so friendly and accommodating and ready to provide recommendations! Thank you to Shaka who was so friendly and helpful. We loved our experience here!

Just traveled in from Paris and had a welcoming experience at Cotton Camden. The flavors in our dishes were exactly what we needed and the delicious cocktails were what we wanted. I highly recommend the oxtail stew or jerk chicken with the Spiced Roots cocktail at a minimum. They even had some Jamaican curry vegetarian options if you’re not up for the oxtail. I forgot to take a picture before we ate but its still looks good.

Me and my partner came here for their birthday and had an amazing time! Atmosphere, food and staff were all perfect. We had crispy squid, jerk chicken and oxtail stew and highly recommend all of them. Drinks were delicious and strong and Chaka our server was so friendly and lovely all night - all in all had a great meal and will be visiting again!

A classic fast food chain with great tasting food and a large menu. There is a good amount of seating and the staff are all friendly, providing efficient service.

Vicky was excellent, I had accidentally asked a customer if they did student discount and she made sure to send him my apology bottomless soft serve like a champ. I adored the friendly atmosphere here, it was so fun despite my silly blunder and accidental hot sauce snorting. The kids menu is so worth it you guys!! Again, big shout out to Vicky who was incredible and made my day brighter :)

It was a nice quaint little building wasn't a ton of space and it was quite loud downstairs however the upstairs was really comfortable and nice, the staff was all really friendly and welcoming and had really atmosphere, the food was what you were to expect from nando's but they were out of stock on a couple items.

This carbon neutral restaurant featuring food inspired by Mozambique was DELICIOUS. It tasted so fresh and was delicious. We ordered every appetizer and they were all excellent. Our very favorite was the sweet potato fries followed by the hummus. I got the chicken thighs and they were perfection!
Jessica Darling - a year ago

I love Nando's; it's one of my favourite places to eat out. I usually go for the lemon and herb sauce with half a chicken.

Lovely little place with delicious food and friendly service. It drops a star for the eye watering prices… a small burger with NO chops and a beer came to £24! How about £4.99 for the slider and £9.99 for a burger? I was also confused as to why the cheaper Slider was not available when there was no mention of this on the menu? Overall, very nice food but not for those on a budget.

Really awesome place. Staff came to greet and are very talkative and facilitating. Ensured I have been served well and went the extra mile to make sure I was having a great meal. Owner greets and has a nice chat with all the visitors, very personable service. The burger meat is of very high quality and presentation of my truffle oil fries was good. Milkshake was pretty nice too and they serve a peculiar east London beer called E1 Brew Co IPA. Overall great vibe and very clean! Highly recommend if you’re looking for a pick me up in the area! Better than all the chains and personable service is always the key to building communities. Very impressed and will be visiting again for afternoon tea!

We purchased a wowcher for this little gem in chalkfarm. We arrived just as the bar was opening. We was greeted by Andrew, who showed us to our table and immediately offered us a 🍺!! Which was brilliant as we thought we would be having bottomless prosecco!! Turned out we could have bottomless beer!!! Andrew went through what our options were with our wowcher. We decided to order 6 different types so we could share them. I must say these burgers 🍔 were absolutely gorgeous! We also got to pick which sweet we wanted with our afternoon tea. The venue itself was having a face-lift so was a little busy and up the wall. However we wasn't put off by this as we had a look around and spoke to the live music manager. It looks like it's going to be a fabulous place and we are looking forward to returning on our next trip to Camden ❤️

Great experience! Booked the burger afternoon tea and loved everything about it, the food is fantastic and the wide range of sliders (including several vegan options) all have their own unique flavours. The owner is very friendly and attentive. Will definitely be returning.

Me and my mum went down to London for a city break at the beginning of July and have to say the experience we had at Bite Me Burger was one of the major highlights of our trip! It was our first visit and we had booked the afternoon tea groupon with free flowing Prosecco! Firstly the food was excellent! We had a fantastic range of mini burgers to choose from and was offered a discount if we wanted to add extras. The burgers were cooked to perfection, were full of flavour and despite their smaller (rather cute) size, were actually quite filling! We loved how with the mini burgers you are able to try a range of different types such as chicken, beef or fish and you are not just limited to one style. I believe they also have a vegetarian option too. Our cakes were delicious and fresh with the novelty of some being shaped like a burger, one having a small hotdog made from icing on top and a recently new addition to the menu of a Kinda Bueno style cupcake which, were all gorgeous! We also added a truffle fries to our afternoon tea which, was a lavish portion size and was served piping hot! Of course the food was so good we had a second round of mini burgers that subsequently completely filled us up. The fabulous and also quite unique food is undoubtedly one enormous selling point for this lovely little independent restaurant in the heart of Camden but, what really made this special for us, was the incredible customer service we received from Andrew the owner. He could not have been more friendly, welcoming and helpful if he tried! After rushing around all week trying to fit lots in, what we really needed was somewhere nice to enjoy/relax and Andrew instantly makes you feel at ease. You can literally have a conversation with him like you’ve known him years. He was also very generous with the free flowing Prosecco and as soon as he saw our glasses were empty. He was straight over to top them up, always with a smile and super up beat attitude! Once the allotted time for the Prosecco had come to an end, we were also given the option to buy the remainder of the bottle for a discounted price which, was certainly an offer we couldn’t refuse. We definitely feel it’s quite rare to find a restaurant that offers so many personal touches as Bite Me Burger or find owners that put in as much care, effort and dedication to their customers as Andrew did for us! We personally whole heartedly recommend paying this little gem a visit and will definitely be returning in the future when we are back down in London! Thank you for making our trip and visit so wonderful!

Nice food for a very cheap price. I couldn't get over how cheap it was for food here. The staff were very friendly and recommended the chicken wings. It's a lovely establishment and if I'm ever in Chalk Farm again, I'll be back.
tommy aquinas - 5 years ago

Food was hot and chips were crispy, however the service wasn’t as good as the food. The old guy serving was miserable, no smile at all, didn’t offer bag for take away and it was raining on that day and i had to carry the food in the rain so my food was wet.

Really kind staff and wonderful venue. Very easy to find and was really fun! I’m not 100% sure about accessibility because there were stairs leading to the upper floor where the venue was. P.S, make sure to bring your ID and ticket with you (if you paid for one!)

Nice Camden rocknroll pub. Great door staff, beers and vibe. Great venue for breaking bands.

Great Pub with great atmosphere and helpful staff. We also attend a music event upstairs. Security was helpful as were the bar staff. Would recommend. The food did look good. But we didn’t eat at the pub as we came for the gig upstairs.
Kate Pollard - 4 months ago

It's all okay I don't usually go to pubs but this place does do live music from time to time. So that was fun, didn't try the food or drink so can't really judge same with the service. So I'll say its okay the atmosphere was good so they definitely keep that in mind.

It was my second time here and still the burger doesn’t disappoint. Their smashed beef patties are grilled to perfection, coupled with their house sauce makes it so so good. Would definitely recommend it!

BUK is a hidden gem for burger lovers. The garlic aioli chicken burger and BUK truffle burger with truffle fries was simply outstanding, possibly the best in London. Their burgers are perfectly smashed or grilled to perfection, bursting with flavor. Similarly, the ambience is inviting and stylish, making it a great spot for any occasion. The customer service was top-notch—friendly, attentive, and made my experience even better. I can’t wait to bring my family back here. Highly recommended!

Pro: Amazing, super tasty, and juicy smashburger with perfect fries. Con: This place is tiny with a tiny entrance door and an even smaller toilet. No alcohol or bacon served as it's a halal food restaurant.
Somogyi Attila - 5 months ago

Chicken wings were and good and really loved the burgers, they were juicy, full of flavour, soft bun, cheese perfectly melted. Fries were also nice and actually the portion was really generous I couldn't finish them. Staff was really friendly but I need to drop 1 star because they took really long in giving our food. We were the only customers when we ordered and they didn't have any Deliveroo and it took about half an hour to get our food.

Delicious Truffle Mayo burger, cooked nicely with tasty meat. Really crispy chicken strips and very nice sweet potato fries too. Portions were all big and just about defeated me! Highly recommend for a burger in the area.

A fairly decent Thai restaurant. The food is certainly a westernised version of Thai food reminiscent of many Thai restaurants up and down the country and often attached to pubs. Menu has a wide variety of dishes. Service from the young waitress seemed a little haphazard, bringing out the wrong dish and saying ‘but this is what you ordered’ but eventually bringing us the correct dish.

First time trying this place after a quick search on google for Thai food in the area. I actually selected this place over another Thai restaurant just because of the tasty looking food pics from some previous diners and the clean authentic decor! Quick on the spot decisions! So I am really surprised when reading some of the reviews about the “rude lady” and mediocre food! Mine and my sister’s experience was a very different and pleasant one! We was first approached by a friendly waitress with limited English (Bless her!). I enquired about a dish but she had difficulty understanding but another lady came swiftly to assist (I assume this is the ‘rude lady’ that a few have mentioned). Assuming she is the owner, she answered my question and told me that the dish I was looking for is not served the same way in the restaurant, but she was very accommodating and added the extra ingredients to my dish (an fried egg on top! Easy on the spice!) to make it how I wanted it - although this may not have costed her a arm and a leg, it was very nice gesture to offer this complimentary as she didn’t have to. We ordered a starter mixed plate along with a couple of duck dishes with coconut rice which was divine! I tried the Thai ice tea which was made to perfection! Very yummy indeed! Throughout the meal, both waitresses came over to check that we were ok. I would say that the food was fresh, portions generous (I couldn’t even finish my main dish) and came quickly. We even had a nice chat with the owner lady about Thailand and recommendations on where to travel next! I honestly left the restaurant feeling really catered to and actually said to my sis “The lady is very nice! Food was nice too!” I will be visiting again! Had I read the reviews prior to heading to this restaurant, they might have put me off but I’m glad I didn’t and actually got to experience it myself with a very pleasant outcome!

My wife and I have a long love affair with Thai food, after spending a few months in Thailand. The problem is, it never taste just like there. That is until we stumbled upon this beautiful place. A family business, Honest Thai food, base on the mother’s recipes. Nice people, very welcoming. Attention to detail, and ingredients are as close to Thai as you could possibly find in this part of the world. I would recommend eating at the restaurant, because it’s just so pleasant. Highly recommended.

Could this be one of the top entirely vegan restaurants in London based solely on taste alone?! In summary: yes! Surreptitiously exposed on a block corner facing a main road to Camden Town, Power Plant is a surprising eatery. It's a classic mix of bar and restaurant, with a little more emphasis on the former than the latter. You'll have the choice of eating al fresco in front of the aforementioned main road, or within the dive bar-like dark ambience of the interior which is punctuated by the occasional plant suited to the establishment's name. As noted with other reviewers it's difficult to know what to do when you arrive: there's no obvious 'please wait here to be seated' signage, and if you're really unlucky the few staff that are available will be busy serving existing customers. But be patient if you can because as already hinted, the food makes up for the shortcoming in experience. Sitting at the table, everything seemed clean. If you're visually sensitive, in the late afternoon and early evening of the summer, sunlight can shine very brightly through the west-facing windows. Without any blinds to block these, choosing where to sit becomes a strategic affair. Nevertheless, when you manage to get the friendly and apologetic waiter's rare attention, you can order. We chose a hummus dish with various sauces and bread to kick off our meal (a fantastic opener with a wide variety of taste experiences), followed by the Jerusalem mixed grill and skinny fries (the mince will blow you away if you're a (former) meat eater). All very well cooked and tantalising on the tastebuds! The savoury dishes were so good in fact, we wanted to see if dessert held up to the same standard - currently this is very limited to a single option: a filo pie with fruit, but it's a very worthy and unique dish that meets the exceptional standard found earlier - not overly sweet but very satisfying with a range of textures. What soon becomes clear is that Power Plant has a really talented chef - he even came out of the kitchen to gauge our opinion of the food - always a good sign of a chef that cares. We returned our opinions with big smiles. Overall, a fantastic food experience despite the minor hiccups with the earlier part of the customer journey. I'll be sure to return to try their brunch. Nevertheless, I can already see this restaurant launching into the top three vegan restaurant experiences in London thanks to its stellar fare. A credit to the culinary potential of vegan food everywhere, Power Plant comes highly recommended! ⭐

Second time here for dinner. The atmosphere is great, I love the venue! There was a live DJ when we arrived. The staff are super friendly but when I got there, it was not clear where to go to get seated. Everyone at the bar was busy and not paying attention. Other people arrived and were just standing around too! I called a waiter who was running around with drinks after a few minutes of this. They were super friendly after that, it would be great if someone could keep an eye on that to make sure customers don't feel lost or get the sense that staff are rude which is not then case. We took a while to order, and sadly 2 of the 3 items they had ran out of. Telling us about the items unavailable would have been a great place to start! The food that arrived was really good! We had the Jerusalem mixed grill, best dish, the "lamb" was great, the vegetables and pitta were delicious, well seasoned 5/5. The mushroom pate was very tasty, good texture and flavours. The apricot jam was pleasant and mild, good combination as well with the pickled mushrooms on top. Could have come with more bread, we literally had to spoon the pate into our mouths (which I'm not too bothered about). The last dish, the smoked aubergine was average. Very smokey, the best were the sauces with it. It would probably taste better on some bread too! Overall, pleasant experience, there are definitely some dishes id like to come back for (hopefully they have them !)

Vegan burger & chips were really nice, the beer was fine, service good. I could only find one ladies loo and I thought I was stuck in it because the lock was really odd. Also it was only 7.30 or so and the floor of the lavatory was awash with water, mostly because the taps stick out too far over tha basin. It seems a bit quibbly because the food, drink & service were fine.

Friendly staff service and food was very quick! We ordered the steak and burger, both tasted amazing. Both our first time trying Redefine Meat, I was impressed with the flavours and texture of how it breaks apart like slow cooked brisket.

A newcomer to the Camden scene and housed in the trendy new co-working space and hotel Selina. On a Tuesday night the atmosphere was buzzy and casual. The staff are friendly and service is quick and efficient. An electric mix of carb heaven vegan fusion tapas style dishes are perfecting for sharing. Be sure to leave room for desert as the peanut butter blondie with ice cream is absolutely delicious and the best vegan desert i’ve ever eaten! Powerplant is also open of breakfast and has some tasty things on the menu such as waffles and maple syrup! During the week and at the weekends you can attend one of their concept nights such as movie and jazz nights.
