    One of the staff was not polite to my husband. If bringing 2 pieces of chocolates is forbidden just say it politely. My husband put the chocolate outside anyways, so what’s the problem? She shout out to my husband and say “Anjing lo” in front of his face. I mean if your customer is making a mistake just say it politely. She even put her middle finger to my husband’s face. AND ALSO they eat the chocolate. LOL eat that policy

    Nice Vibes. Horrible service, I understand it’s Saturday night. But our table order 1 pitcher of beer 8 times, never got it. We had to walk up to their manager to ask for one. All the servers ignores us every time we ask to order. Never coming back here everrrrrr again!!

    It's a good place to have a drink and a meal or just a bar snack.Good music and a mixture of young and mature people. Service is quick also. Oh and the food is excellent. Prices are reasonable compared to other similar venues.i would definitely recommend it for couples who want to dine out and great for singles who might be looking for company.

    A cozy bar perfect to chill for a while. I went there on a weekday night so it wasn't crowded. The atmosphere is relaxing with the vintage decoration and the contemporary pop music. Service is fast and the staff is friendly. Wide variety of drinks (local and international beers, spirits) and food. I tried the thin crust pizza, didn't have to wait long and it was delicious. You can smoke indoors but there's good ventilation so it's not cloudy or annoying for non-smokers. Items on the menu are a bit pricey but they have promos depending on the weekday: shots, cocktails, bottles, etc. It offers seating in the bar, booths or in the "garden". Bathroom was super clean. Highly recommended to come with friends, family or a date. Cheers!

    Very nice and trendy for the Indonesian middle class youngsters . Food was good bi portions too. Nice friendly staff. There is a small cover charge but you receive a shot of Jim Beam and gigarettes. Not too good if you are a recovering alcoholic or non smoker. My one grumble people are allowed to smoke indoors.

    Pathetic experiences in my last 3 visits, every time I wanted to give them a benefit of doubt but they proved that I was wrong. They only look for an opportunity to milk money from the customers and misguide them. The entire bar was empty and they wanted us to sit outside stating that inside the entire tables were reserved, they took us outside and offered us to sit on a stools but not on chairs. Last time one waiter told that to get a table you need to bill 5mil and another waiter said that you have to order a bottle to get a table inside if that was the case then how come 2 different information coming from 2 different people. My advice is not to visit Camden Chikni if you want to enjoy your evening. I have visited here 7 times and have spent really well but This review is based on my last 3 visits which means everything they do is not situational but intentional .

    Cozy place to drink, also available Bar desk. Nice music. Ladies night every Wednesday. My favourite is Illusion Cocktail, Strawberry Surprise and Flavoured Beer Lychee. Food recomended is Pizza Cheese Lover and Fried Kwetiau.

    The live music is so good. Started sometime around 9.30- 10 pm. The food is just fine for me. The crowd is bigger on 10 PM onwards. Servers are responsive. Quite plenty chairs indoor and outdoor. The smoking smelk is quite strong indoor, however, the music is so much better there. The opposite for the outdoor. Will come again for the music.

  • 4/5 Douglas C. 9 months ago on Google • 36 reviews
    Very cool outdoor seating area with fun, strong drinks. Not the best place for a conversation but a great place for a fun night of drinking and dancing. Life music indoors but too much smoke for my taste. Outdoor area was better. Went on a Friday night and by 1am there were some folks passed out on their table and even one guy passed out at a standup urinal. Definitely go hard here.

  • 1/5 Zeki S. 7 months ago on Google
    Athmoshere was great. And the beer price in the menu was 51.000 rupiah for small Bintag draft beer. So i drank 3 beers. Then after i asked for the bill then in the recipe it was written that i drank 4 beers with 51.000 x 4= 204.000 rupiah. I asked them that i jut drank 3 beers. Then they talked each other and waited for me 5 minutes to calculate the bill again. If 4 beers are 204000 then 3 beers should be 153.000 rupiah. Then they charged me 184.000 rupiah. I said nothing. But i understood that they changed the bill(recipe) on purpose. It was not good for me think bad about this place although atmosphere was great.

    Another great place to chill BEFORE 9pm! Just because I do not like loud music and this place at night, is very very loud. Not a place to chat and catch up at night but if you come for sundown, it is just perfect. Great cocktails and very nice finger food. The tofu dishes are to die for!

  • 5/5 khaled M. 8 months ago on Google • 26 reviews
    Simple bar lounge and everyday 9 pm live music , i like candles and light , really I feel somewhere not in Jakarta, every time I visit Jakarta I must be here . Why I don’t know! Love this place so much

  • 4/5 BH (. 10 months ago on Google
    A bit of a dive bar, and so many people smoking. I forgot how much smoking is a major part if the culture in Indonesia. The drinks are good, the staff are welcoming. I'd go back with friends 😜

  • 4/5 Fitri Ratna I. 9 months ago on Google
    The food is good but just good enough, not special. This is a good choice if you want to hangout with friends while having drinks. Its outdoor area is recommended.

  • 5/5 Diki J. 1 year ago on Google

  • 5/5 Soraya I. 1 year ago on Google
    Ice cold beer served in an ice cold glass. Great selection of light bites. Nice staff and bartenders. Reasonably priced beers and cocktails too!

  • 5/5 Andhika H D. 1 year ago on Google
    had a great time with highschool friends and catching up good old times at camden. the live music are really good! reasonably priced booze and parking tariff.

  • 4/5 Ottis S. 1 year ago on Google
    Fairly good but weekends will be traffic so be prepared. Beer was fairly cold and good but prices higher than the Gandaria City location I used to go to.

  • 4/5 Steve H. 3 years ago on Google
    Great bar with atmosphere. Very busy when I visited. Good priced beer. The hamburger I ordered was a disappointment. Tasted fine but the beer pattie was mushy suggesting limited beef and more binding. Texture was like mashed potato but it still tasted good. A good pub.

  • 5/5 Kenzi P. 1 year ago on Google
    So damn nice place to hangout, drink, smoke, dance, etc. Good food, good price!

  • 5/5 sophia c. 1 year ago on Google

  • 4/5 Shyam K K. 2 years ago on Google
    A good bar, young crowd, outdoor dine in is good. Do try.

  • 1/5 Harry W. 2 years ago on Google
    Staff rude and unhelpful. Ordered 2 vodka redbull and got given 1 redbull no vodka. Tried ordering more drinks and she said they're closed, asked for my money back she said no. She was speaking to me like I was inconveniencing her by being there.

  • 5/5 Elok N. 5 years ago on Google
    Great place tohangout with after working. Promo buy 1 get 1 cocktail every weekday and get special proces for selected beer from 6 to 8 pm every weekday. Cheap, good service but lit bit needs improovement with the food. Their signature drink "predator" is my recomendation if ure able to being here.

  • 5/5 Bagustya R. 4 years ago on Google
    Probably the best casual hangout melting pot in Jakarta. Affordable with great selection of beers and drinks. They provide both finger foods and full-on meals. Try their signature sausage and truffle fries, finger-licking guarantee!! or try something heavier like nasi goreng kampung complete with a chicken skewer and sunny side up. Try to come earlier if you want to chill and hang out with your friends, come late if you want to have a fun night out with the hippest crowd in town. Remember it's always 01:30 at Camden.

😠 Terrible place. Waitress who wears glasses was just rude so much. Horrible service, unfriendly waitress. Seems no training for employees and customers are nothing for this pub. Finally I just left. Do not waste your time and gas. Just find another one. This one is yucky so much 🤮
