Beeches Restaurant in Dover

Lunch for 2 hardly ever tastes this good. Spanish Hash and Chorizo, Eggs Bendedict both went down so well. Highly recommended

Visiting Sandwich over the bank holiday weekend, my wife and I stumbled across DiVino whilst looking for an after dinnner drink. Despite all of the tables being fully booked, Jason kindly found us room to sit at the bar, and I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the drinks menu. The wine list is very well curated, and has a great selection of local and international wines - including offerings from the excellent Kent winery Balfour. My wife, being Italian, often has some strong opinions about wine quality, but even she was highly complimentary about her glass of primitivo. Having devoured an amazing portion of homemade tiramisu (sourced by DiVino from a nearby local Italian restaurant, and also good enough to mret my wife's approval) I then switched to the cocktail menu. Chatting with bartender Jason, I was convinced to try my first Caipirinha, a classic Brazillian cocktail that he made properly from scratch in front of us, with fresh ingredients (not a drop of pre-made cocktail mix in sight) and no small amount of skill. This was followed by a Hugo Spritz, inspired by my desire to try some St Germain elderflower liquer. Both cocktails were beautifully balanced and presented, and match anything I have had at my usual favourite cocktail spot, Satan's Whiskers. It is also worth mentioning the vibe of the bar, which is both quirky and relaxed. Housed in a converted Victorian era general store (with many century old fittings and fixtured repurposed to store and display drinks and food), DiVino has a cozy, intimate atmosphere that would suit equally well for a romantic evening as for an after-work destressing tipple. I must also mention the quality of service, both drinks-wise but also in Jason making time to chat with us, about the area and about drinks in general, despite also running a busy bar. This review has gone on for far longer than I anticipated, but it is hard to do DiVino justice without talking about all of the things that make it such an amazing bar. In fact overall, the only thing about DiVino that doesn't scream high-end wine bar is the pricing, which for the extremely high quality, service and atmisphere is incredibly reasonable. If you are in (or even just near-ish) Sandwich, I would highly recommend a visit-you will not be disappointed.

We had a fantastic experience at this restaurant! From the moment we arrived, the atmosphere was warm, cheerful, and welcoming. The food was absolutely delicious – full of flavor and beautifully presented. We asked our server for recommendations for both vegetarian and chicken dishes, and they gave us excellent suggestions that turned out to be just perfect. Everything we tried was spot on! What made the experience even better was the service. Our server was incredibly kind, joyful, and attentive. They made us feel right at home with their friendly attitude and really enhanced the whole dining experience. It’s rare to come across someone who clearly enjoys their job and goes the extra mile to make guests feel special. The happy, relaxed vibe of the restaurant, paired with the great food and outstanding service, made for a truly memorable visit. We’ll definitely be coming back and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a delicious meal and a positive atmosphere!

We ate delicious, fresh fish and chips. The apple pie for dessert was also delicious! Typical English pub vibes, absolutely great! The lady who served us was also very nice!
