Cafe lounge in Gravesham

Great place to eat and chat with friends. Friendly and efficient service. Love the new interior.

Very cosy lovely place, nice freshly made food and very tasty coffee. I would recommend visiting! 👍

Amazing food, service is alright but can be slow at times. Always worth the wait

Really probably the best food I’ve ever had. Great atmosphere, prices reasonable the standard of food 10/10

I drove about 25 mins to get to this highly recommended cafe, upon arrival the staff took their time to even acknowledge us at the door which already put me off but when we were eventually greeted, the staff were warm and friendly. The restaurant is on the smaller side but there was space for my friend and I with the pram. My friend ordered the pancakes. They weren’t light and fluffy unfortunately and she didn’t really enjoy it. The grilled chicken sandwich was ok it was tasty but nothing special, the french toast on the other hand was absolutely divine! I would drive 25 mins just for that. I also got the strawberry coconut protein shake which I enjoyed.

Food is good. But it’s got expensive. So I won’t be going back now. Can go to a good cafe in gravesend and get 2 good breakfasts with coffee for the price of one breakfast. 9 item breakfast has gone up nearly £5.

Great place for brunch on the weekend with a great menu. There is usually a waiting time but always managed to get a table. Very attentive waiting staff and food is really delicious!

Food was lovely but for the price you would expect the staff to ask if you would like another drink or if everything is ok with your meals.

Have been coming to cafe lounge since opening and I have never had a bad experience, visited over the bank holiday and was served by the lovely Sophie, who was more than accommodating, amazing food and amazing hospitality!

Obviously very popular as all tables were occupied, it was bank holiday Monday. People queueing for a table. Couple of tables outside were free which used. Coffee could be a bit stronger, or have less milk.

Excellent food, great service, friendly and helpful, and reasonably priced. Will definitely be going back.

I love the place, great food and service

We really enjoyed our lunch here. Great service! Our food and drinks arrived very quickly. The whole experience was efficient. And the staff were all polite and friendly too! We were told there would be around a 15-minute wait for a table but were seated sooner than that!

Great food and cocktails; brilliant service too!

Amazing place from breakfast, can highly recommend the big breakfast. Would recommend booking as it can fill up quickly.

Lovely food would definitely recommend this place

Brilliant service lovely staffed Food was absolutely delicious

Popped in for a sausage sandwich take away it was £6.50 thought bit pricey but it must be nice after waiting 20 minutes it arrived I opened the nice looking box and there it was a cocktail sandwich, a small sweaty sandwich which at best had 1 sausage in it wot a joke there just ripping people off

We’ve been meaning to come here for breakfast for a while as I often pop in for a takeaway coffee in the morning. We were not disappointed. The service is excellent, the cafe itself is spotless and the food was incredibly tasty.

Very pricey ok as a treat Don't like being told where to sit

Came here based on the reviews and I was not disappointed! The place itself is lovely and clean, the staff were nice and friendly, service was a little slow but it was very busy in there. The food arrived and my goodness it was lovely! You could tell everything was good quality and fresh, also my eggs were perfectly cooked and the portions were big. The only downside for me was the noise, it was incredibly loud in there with everyone shouting over eachother that I couldn't speak to my partner. It is a little on the pricey side but not the most expensive brunch i've had and I enjoyed the food. I would 100% come back and try other menu items!

Unbelievably slow /weak service. Shame as food is good.

Amazing place loved it.food was stunning staff went above and beyond.so busy Highly recommend.

Lovely place for lunch everything freshly made huge menu way too much choice great coffee will visit again

Excellent. My first visit as was recommended.

Atmosphere and food spot on,busy Sunday brunch delicious, advise you to book a table few day's beforehand 👍

Had a lovely brunch, you have the options to choose your items. Food was cooked well and the coffee was lovely. Would recommend!

Excellent food every time and it’s nice to see some unusual things on the menu. Staff were brilliant as always.

Lovely food and very friendly staff

Lots of people, little space, good food.

There was a great lunchtime vibe going on with great food, wide menu, and attentive staff.

Love this café for breakfast! The food is always delicious 😋 and they actually employ enough staff so the service is also brilliant!

We visited on mother's day and they did a great job considering how busy they were. All the food and drink we received was lovely and well proportioned. I felt the food was good vfm but the drinks a touch pricey.

Looks like a busy, trendy cafe from the outside. When we arrived we was greeted and seated, although the service wasn't bad it wasn't really enthusiastic or super welcoming. The food was pretty standard, nothing stood out to us. Overly priced. Not worth the hype or waiting around for a parking spot.

Love the food here. The drinks and service is amazing too.

We just moved into the area from London, a pleasant surprise and lovely discovery. We didn't book ahead of time, waited a bit for our table. Nevertheless, the food was colorful and delicious! Matcha latte was lovely. My husband got a flatwhite, also lovely. Will have to come back again to try them all.

Food was delicious. Staff very helpful and friendly. Definitely visit again.

Amazing place ! Such a nice and cozy coffee shop , delicious food and great service . Were greeted with a smile and a very positive attitude by Marianna and during breakfast Katie looked after us . Will be back!

First time for breakfast and it was superb !! Will coming by often - thank you !

My first time in Cafe Lounge and really enjoyed it! Great food, helpful staff and nice atmosphere

Over price for average quality of English breakfast , atmosphere too crowded , overall not recommended

Very clean and lovely atmosphere, food was amazing, there is parking , would be good to have car meet on field opposite

Went for brunch yesterday. Really busy as always but excellent service. A small problem with my meal which was very unusual as we dine in here often. Took meal away and cooked a fresh one. No trouble at all they could not have been more helpful. Best place for day time eating for miles!

Great food and service. Sometimes a bit of a wait for a table bit always worth it! A local favourite of mine.

Always a lovely breakfast/ brunch at cafe lounge. The staff are friendly and the food is so nice.

We had to wait 30 minutes for a table as it's walk in only but was lovely food, we were all very happy.

Incredible venue. Recommended by a friend. Food was well presented, so fresh and all food and drink went down a treat. Had pancakes, chicken sandwich and loaded fries. I will visit time and time again. I was blown away. Staff are a delight too. Easy to get to and parking available outside.

Sometimes it gets too busy so staff take long to bring bill or clear table. Food is great.

Lovely Food and Atmosphere. 10/10. Highly recommend this spot if you are in the area.

Second time I have been and unfortunately the service was poor this time, food as expected. It’s a shame when you have a great business that is popular, you take the customer for granted. How times do we say this to business’s, customer, customer, customer!!!

Nice place, lovely food nice experience

I had lunch with friends yesterday for the first time, It was recommended to me by a friend of mine and I wasn't disappointed the service was excellent, they explained all the dishes to me, atmosphere was really friendly, and the food was excellent and very delicious, would highly recommend, I'll be visiting again soon,

The only thing to let this place down is not letting an adult buy a kids size meal. My grandson is 26 with special needs and only eats small portions .

After being seated, which we reserved, the service took 15 minutes plus to take our order.

Good service and lovely food & drinks. Reasonably priced as well would recommend

Amazing staff, lovely atmosphere, will definitely be back!!!

Very nice food , reasonable priced and would recommend.

Amazing food and service. Thank you

Quick service, the staff are really polite and attentive. The decor is aesthetically pleasing. Would highly recommend a visit, you won’t be disappointed

Really lovely food. Great service. Parking very busy but worth it.

A nice little cafe with delicious food and good coffee. The portions are good and the staff were very friendly. It does get a little loud when its busy

Great cafe always have the English breakfast sausages are top drawer.

Came for breakfast and very much enjoyed it. The cafe was pretty busy but I was alone so got a table straight away. I ordered the sweet & Savoury breakfast and a cortado. The breakfast was excellent. The cortado however, whilst was a very good tasting coffee, was massive. Not what a cortado should be. It’s a small complaint, but worth mentioning as some might not want or expect a large drink. Table next to me had a milkshake which looked incredible. I’ll try one of those next time.

Ok but nothing brilliant service is slow

Excellent boutique cafe , with great service and amazing food . Must try place if in the area and by area I mean a 10 mile radius !!

Love this place. Amazing food and great service

Brilliant full English breakfast.

Been here a couple of times now, a nice find and despite going at weekends and busy, it’s been nice friendly service and a great choice of food & drinks. I’m fussy over my English tea and it is good here, it’s in bags but loose leaf and you can taste it’s better flavour. We’d recommend The ‘Meopham brunch’ option (photo) which was v tasty and quite good value but maybe not so much for my toastie (though that was nice enough). Coffee here is good and it’s great to see some Italian cannoli also 👍🏻. All in all it makes a nice change from your typical chain stuff & paninis/cake.

Great cafe and friendly staff. Highly recommend

Excellent food and staff. Can get very noisy but that’s means people are enjoying themselves.

Must visit. Good food, good portions and good service. So much choice on the menu.

Quick stop off while on a motorcycle ride. Cortado and a pecan tart had. Both good quality and friendly staff.

This is a slightly higher priced breakfast/all day cafe. But the higher prices are justified. The food is amazing. I've been a couple of times now and have plans to go back again soon. I'd recommend this place for a posh breakfast. Definitely recommend the Jammy eggs and the dirty omelette 😋

It is such a shame that I have to give it 3 stars because the food is wonderful and the menu is good. But the staff.. I've been a waitress, I've been a barista, I've even worked in a kitchen. So I get that it can be busy and tiring, I really do. But when I've been waiting almost 20 minutes on a not so busy day and I've been ignored for those that have come in after me I tend to get a bit miffed. It wasn't like the waitresses were rushed off their feet, one was just standing at the till chatting to another waitress. And this isn't the first time this has happened to myself or my partner. I feel with better training they could really turn it around. Other reviews say friendly staff, I however have been in here many times and have yet to meet anyone that friendly. Maybe it's me, but I'm a smiley person so to be met with frowns can be upsetting.

Met up with some friends for a brunch, all of us really enjoyed our food. Only downside was the inability to take one item off a meal (a sausage) and substitute with something else (mushrooms or grilled tomato) due to the person not eating sausages.

Great food, not too expensive and great service. Could have more Vegan options. Gets busy at the weekends.

Have been here a few times since moving and I can’t recommend it enough. Great service, great food.

Fantastic cafe. Had the best breakfast around!

5.03.23 Where has original team gone their missed. Food excellent. Service poor updated July 2023 price they charge Service definitely needs to improve

Fabulous food and a creative menu. Worth the queue!

Great coffee, thousand times better than Costa next door. Very busy on a Friday morning, took more than 5mins just to get a take away coffee.

Friendly and welcoming staff, even when they see a sweaty cyclist!! They have couple of tables outside which is perfect for the morning sun. I didn’t check out the menu, only picked from what was showing behind the counter(my choice) The pastry was heated, freshly squeezed orange juice chilled with ice and nicely presented mocha coffee. All served by a smiling waitress. The interior looks fresh and inviting although I needed to stay outside to keep an eye on my bike. There is a lay-by for parking, just be mindful it can be busy to park as there are other shops besides the cafe lounge. The cost of the 3 items came to just over £9 I’d say this cafe is worth a visit 🥰

Food is absolutely stunning! Best breakfast for miles. Quite expensive but you certainly get what you pay for!

No flexibility in the menu. Unhelpful service.

Amazing as always. The staff were lovely as always and the food was delicious !!

First time coming here, food was absolutely delicious. Definitely will be coming back :)

Love their fruity salad and food choices they have!

OMG what is not to like! Coffee is outstanding, food is divine, service is good and cannot wait to return. Only thing that would be better is if you could book tables at the weekend.

Very busy and good survice all the time

Disappointed. Took the waiter 10+ minutes to take our order and clear the table. Didn't wipe the table. Didn't offer water with the food.

Oh dear! This place is a shambles. The coffee machine apparently wasn't working, although there seemed to be 2 machines on the counter. There was no attempt to offer an alternative (instant coffee?) There was hot water available as there was tea. Anyway, the staff are young, there is a definite training issue as they are awkward, surly and irritable. The food was ok, the main complaint being fried eggs were overcooked. The table was cleared without being asked if we had finished or if we wanted anything else. It is very cramped, with a lot of tables in a small space, we were a party of 5 crammed onto a table for 4. It is a shame because this has the potential of being a great place but is let down by the staff.

Unbelievably busy local cafe and we could see why it was popular. Friendly, efficient staff and good food. It's on a busyish road and isn't very picturesque, but we were very glad to have found it and woukd go again. There's usually a good reason why people queue!

This place is literally a little gem.....especially coming from London where I'm used to these type of cafe's all around me. 10/10, definitely worth it if ur looking for something with quality and taste.

Had a gluten free sandwich and was probably one of the best I have had - friendly helpful staff good vibe inside

The best breakfast in all of Meopham.

Although we had to wait for a table it was worth the wait. The food was delicious. Milk shake and mocktails were tasty too. We will be back.

Lovely food and surroundings.Staff were very happy and professional.Lovely little cafe

Chilled out vibe, friendly staff, comfortable and delicious inventive menu. Can't wait to go here again. Undiscovered gem of a place.

I was refused the option of ordering scrambled eggs on toast as it is on the kids menu. I was told that I needed to order and pay for 5 items. But I was not ordering 5 items, I was physically unable to eat that much. Nonetheless, I was refused the same. It’s unfortunate to say the least. I won’t be coming back.

Have visit here on numerous occasions with friends and family. Lovely clean cafe, extensive menu and excellent quality of food. Could be improved if we were allowed a little more time as you do feel rushed, a table of 3 people and only allowed 1hr 15 mins, by the time you order and eat it’s close to 45/50mins, so not really the place to go for a catch up with friends. Shame really as we would have ordered extra drinks. New review since my last visit. Food is still as tasty as ever, but really don’t understand why their landline don’t work, constantly states the mailbox is full and no one seems interested in fixing this! As a business owner, I would think this is something that needs looking into asap! I have tried calling for 3 days. It’s appalling literally. Visited during half term, the service has gone downhill, but the reason for 2 star is the awful smell in the toilet. It is so bad. I had a table at the end and it is definitely a sewage issue, I have heard ppl say this but it has never affected me as I have been seated at the front. This time it put me off my food and I couldn’t wait to get out of there. We left quickly and went to Costa. The toilet needs addressing asap, it’s very bad for business.
