About The Camberwell Arms

An independent gastropub on Camberwell Church Street with an open kitchen and a daily-changing, produce-led menu, regularly ranked among the UK’s best gastropubs.

The Camberwell Arms occupies a corner site on Camberwell Church Street and has built a serious food reputation while staying true to the shape of a proper pub — a working bar at the front, an open kitchen visible from the dining room, and a menu that changes daily depending on what's good that morning. It has repeatedly featured in national best-gastropub rankings, drawing diners from well beyond Camberwell for its confident, seasonal British cooking, while remaining independently run rather than tied to a group, with a genuinely local following for a straightforward pint at the bar as well.
