About Chamberlayne
Pub and steakhouse using locally sourced meat from Smithfield Market, aged for 28 days.
23/03/24 - a visit showed no cask beers on sale - we do not know if this was a one off or is permanent - further news welcome.
28/03/23- open again with 2 cask beers and a selection of other beers such as Two Tribes Dream Pale Ale and Brooklyn Defender IPA
07/03/23 - Reverting to old name (see latest pic). Still in shopfit stages. Local word is the people who run The Island are taking over. Which by recent visits to both will be an improvement.
15/02/23 - just walked by the Rise in Kensal Rise and the place is clearly closed. Hopefully just a refurb and name change again. Interior has been cleared out. They say on Instagram they will reopen "early March".
On a visit in early Nov 2022 the GK IPA was not available, we do not know if this is just a temporary thing?
Renamed and refurbished from previous format 'The Chamberlayne' New food menu launched as 'Italian Kitchen' Three pumps, usually two on. Formerly the Chamberlayne and prior to that the Banker's Draught (previously a Barclay's bank branch), reopened in 2007 with the restoration of real ales after a long absence. One room with long bar at front, dining room at rear. Outside tables. Handy for Kensal Rise stations. The owner since 1999 is a company called Masseria Group set up by Rob Claassen, also running the Salusbury.

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.

Nice aesthetics, good pub with more formal restaurant to the back. Very nice staff and good menu. Despite it being exceptionally quiet (only people in dining room so athmos was limited!). Starter was tasty, we then waited well over an hour for our main course, which was okay when it arrived (burger was very pink, we weren’t asked how we like it). I think there was a mix up but the server didn’t say anything, nor was there an apology. Their white wine selection was a little spendy and the one we wanted wasn’t available. The dining room could do with better ventilation and on hot days with the…

Great atmosphere, my husband and I were served by a lovely lady called Lilly. We were extremely impressed with her professional service and friendly nature. Great food too! We will definitely be back!!

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.
