Restaurants in Kent in general

The Allotment Restaurant Dover. Made a booking for 12 for Lunch. This was supposed to be a nice meal before my Daughter went to London for her Hen Night. We arrived at the Restaurant and had to wait for two additional tables to be added to enable us all to sit down. The surroundings inside were not too bad. The area out the back is nice with several tables dotted around. On the walls they have put trellis up with mirrors behind. Looks attractive and different. Ordering the meals was a total shambles. There were two A4 sheets of paper with the menu on which obviously was not adequate. There was a Menu Board on the wall. I was sat at the end of ...  Read the complete review

Richard Phillips at Chapel Down, Tenterden

Went here fot the first time at the weekend, WOW what a find.

The setting is really great, the resturant is in the vinyard.

It's pretty clear that a lot of thought and creative input as been put into the interior design of this resturant to make a really cool atmosphere.

The food is really something else, lots of English produce combined with some quirky ideas that work. I had pollock coated in a light curry Chapel Down beer batter, with home made chunky chips cooked in goose fat....yummy.

The kitchen is open so you can see all the action, really good fun, the kids loved it.

Chapel Down wine is truly fantastic, I haven't drunk much English wine, but this was very nice, watch out you French producers.

Recommend you try, you will be pleasantly supprised, promise.

Terry Jones, Canterbury

My husband and I, plus a large group of friends, stumbled across this restaurant by accident. Faversham is a market town not too far from Canterbury. The history of the town is quite incredible! But the food and service in this small restaurant was even more impressive. It has a very cosy and homely feel and the freshest food around, which was served with great attention to detail and presentation, they have their own fisherman who brings the catch of the day directly to them, you can't get fresher than that!! The food is superb, and all local produce. We feel it was worth the trip, whilst visiting Kent. 10/10. Try and ...  Read the complete review

This a review of the Rusty Pelican in Tunbridge Wells Kent. It is a restaurant/bar open every evening and justifiably popular. The food is excellent, the menu features steaks, fajitas, chiken dishes, stir fries, kebabs, pasta dishes and such like. It is reasonably priced (between £6-£15, a decent sized steak is about £12), you get large portions and it is always of a very high standard. This is also a cocktail bar, so the bar itself is in the centre of the restaurant. There is a substantial cocktail menu, but you can request anything that isn't on there and they will endeavour to please! This is a lively, loud venue that feels ...  Read the complete review

I love eating out and try to go to as many different places as I can. I move to kent from London and the biggest shock was the lack of fun places to go. Then Bluewater opened and hooray!!!! It is food heaven, with loads of places to eat. It has the traditional fast food like md's and burger king yuk!! But it also has a range of wonderful places to try. My absolute favourite is sante fe. It is a south american place, not mexican, and does the most scrummy unusual food. THe menu is not very big and if you don't like spicy foods then don't go. I tried things like cornbread, roasted garlic mash and some other weird things that i ...  Read the complete review
