Chameleon Cafe in Shepway

Service very slow, toilets not very clean Atmosphere was quite nice

What a fantastic place. Extremely friendly service. One of the best burgers ive had for a long time. What amazing value for money. We'll be back

Awesome place to eat when in the area. Chef is class. Staff are really helpful. Decor is dated.

Brilliant food, brilliant service and made us feel welcome! This cafe should not be so quiet as it is today!

That was a really good all day breakfast! Nice cuppa tea too. Nice people.

Really tasty food. Made fresh to order. Great prices. Handy location just of the foot path between folkestone and Hythe.

Had a wonderful meal at the restaurant, we had a selection of starters and a variety of curries, very delicious, staff lovely and we will definitely be coming back. Highly recommend this restaurant.

Just had an impromptu visit to this great place! Such a local gem and we didn't even know about it! There were six of us and two children. We all had a Masala Dosai with all the trimmings - so authentic and very tasty. The staff were just lovely too. I would highly recommend this restaurant and can't wait to go back!

Amazing food with friendly staff. Both in house Indian food and the take out menu is outstanding with such aromatic food.

We won a raffle prize! Dinner for four at the Chameleon Cafe. Cafe by day and fine Asian dining by night. Amazing tapas style dishes to share and larger main sized choices if you fancy. Four of us ordered around 12 dishes plus rice and breads and every one was delicious ! Well timed to keep the meal ticking along perfectly and the service from the waitress was lovely and attentive. The whole event was one of the most sociable meals we’ve experienced. If you’re tired of the usual curry house experience then this is the place to go! If not then still go!! You’ll be amazed! Thank you Satish for a superb evening 👏👏

Tasty and inexpensive. Convenient parking and good location.

Great cafe...reasonably priced and excellent quality fast food with other motorcycle riders and locals in a professional and friendly venue

The food and drinks at Chameleon restaurant were absolutely amazing! 🌟🍽️ The location near the beach with a stunning view added to the overall charm. The cozy atmosphere made it the perfect spot for a relaxing and enjoyable meal. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a memorable dining experience! Don't forget to try their mouthwatering Indian cuisine, especially the starters! 🌶️🍛😋

Had seen so many great reviews for the Chameleon Cafe that I had to try it! We absolutely enjoyed the delectable dishes and drinks. Highly recommend the Golgappa Chaat that has a burst of flavour yet good for those who are not good with spice! The hospitality we received was lovely. We hope to be back again!

We had the best food during our 14-day long trip in UK, at the Chameleon cafe. It was recommended by an Indian friend and I was told the Indian dishes (and the other ones) were to die for! Having had Indian food many times, because I'm from Singapore, I can promise that the Indian food here is AMAZING! The art of gastronomy was displayed - the Golgappa Chaat, a savoury dish, had pomegranate seeds sprinkled on the dish, and chutney on the plate for pairing as well. A very well thought out choice of ingredients by Chef Satish! The drinks were amazing as well - we had watermelon sherbet mocktails and they were so refreshing. Thank you for the amazing hospitality and for making my taste buds happy.

What an unexpected gem! Located next to a petrol station, so wasn't expecting much. But had the best chicken curry I can remember for a long time, and very good fish and chips. Interior is bright and relaxed and staff were lovely. Will definitely be back!

Unfortunately didn’t do much for gluten free and the food was ok, however right next to the sea and they have seating outside for nice days.

Absolutely tasteful authentic food. Truly so tasty can't praise the food presented. Best food I have tasted in years. Highly recommended

The Indian Tapas and foods are amazing. Probably best traditional Indian food we have eaten. Seems to be a well kept secret! Compliments to the chef. 100% will return

Amazing Indian Tapas and Indian food. Seems to be a well kept secret. Compliments to the chef

Had the best authentic Indian food here. This is an authentic southern Indian restaurant (evening menu) with the right menu and superb variety of Dosas ( Savoury Indian Lentil Pancake). I loved the starters Samosa Chaat and the Masala Vada. On top of all the delicious food, the chef greets all the customers and patrons adding to a homely feel.

Last day of our holiday, and we stopped for breakfast, it was great food very good the staff were brilliant, we wished we had seen it sooner, we look forward to going again next time we are there 😁

One of the best Indian food i have ever tasted. Thank you for serving us a healthy and yummy yummy food with all the care. The staff were so friendly :)

Had lunch today - first time at this venue. Delicious fish and chips - great and prompt service. Realistic pricing - will definitely come again. Happy days!

Visited here on a Saturday night, 6 of us on a ladies' weekend away in Sandgate, which is a pleasant 15 minute walk along the sea-front. We had a fabulous meal of Indian tapas. One of our party is vegan and we'd pre-ordered a non-spicy vegan burger which was declared delicious. We received excellent service, and the chef brought complimentary vegan ice cream for my friend. We will definitely return next time we visit Sandgate.

Lovely people and food. Right by the beach. Fantastic.

A wide variety of choices, a warm welcome, dishes cooked with love! Great feeling with the staff. Perfect after swimming. THANKS !

Very food but when busy they take a lot of time

Eaten here twice now and both times did not disappoint. Delicious Indian food, great veggie and vegan options and lovely friendly staff

Fabulous food, lovely staff. Great value for authentic Indian food. Can't wait for my next visit x

Lovely little cafe with delightful service and tasty food. Couple things to improve…cleanliness of condiments, window sills and spider webs in toilets.

Best Fish and Chips ever! Great Cafe. We arrived just before closing time but were still served with great fish and chips at a really good price. The staff were just so friendly and made us feel very welcome despite us arriving so late. Really want to try the evening Indian menu

Great fish and chips, reasonably priced

Best Indian food in the area! Such an incredible selection of dishes and such a change from all the normal English style Indians! The samosa, the curry leaf fried chicken, the lamb kashmiri, and the paratha are just amazing, all the food is amazing! We go with the whole family and there is so much to choose from, we always have to share everything!

Worst place I’ve ever visited! No one said hello or greeted us at all when we walked in. Just looked at us. We sat for five minutes and then had to go and ask for a menu. We just ordered a few portions of chips when they were brought out not a single word from the waitress just put them down and walked off. I have never felt more awkward or unwanted somewhere ever. Chips were lovely but the service and atmosphere where a massive zero!

Really nice shop. We ordered different dishes so all four of us could try. Each of the dishes was delicious. Very nice service. When we are in the UK we will definitely go back.

The Vegan Dosa night was amazing. Each course was just delicious, especially the crispy dosa. We also loved the Vegan ice cream and crumble.

Not a bad curry at all. Place was a bit dead but the service was top notch.

Went for breakfast one day, went back the following day for Indian. Food was fabulous and good value for money plus they catered well for veggies/vegans. The chef explained the cafe is called Chameleon because they do English food by day and Indian by night.

Food was spot on even from ordering items not set on the menu. Very accommodating chef. We really enjoyed the food which was clearly freshly cooked. Although It wasn’t busy during our visit, think if it had been that may’ve been a little too much for the waiting staff whom I can only describe as below par! Think the music must’ve been wired up to their heads as that was equally dull. They did their best and were pleasant and inoffensive.

Excellent food,plesent staff very friendly and fantastic service

We really enjoy going to the Chameleon for lunch and were there again this week. Delighted to hear that it will be opening again soon for weekend evenings. If you haven't tried The Chameleon yet you should fit in a visit. Choose good weather and you can enjoy your meal at an outside table a stone's throw from the sea. Parking onsite too.

We visited today for lunch with my husband and my mum. Such polite ladies waiting tables. Orders taken quickly, lovely hot lattes made. Food was amazing. Chicken tikka wrap, flavoursome and succulent. Husband had the chilli con carne jacket potatoe, he was very impressed and...

Great location. Always busy but very slow service. Good food . Should increase staff during busy times . Takes at least 45min for the order to be delivered to your table . Been few times and has not changed ..

Just had a coffee and a tea, was nice and service was friendly. Looked after the dog too.

Excellent service & delicious food filled with flavour, highly recommended

Unexpected very welcome find after our walk along the prom. from Hythe. Excellent food, fish and chips and scampi and chips. Served with grace and courtesy. Even cooked and presented FOC sausage for our dogs. Highly recommended.

First visit to this place, had a brilliant breakfast, I chose the Demi breakfast, for £7.50, Well presented, cooked perfectly, thoroughly enjoyed, set me up for the day lol Staff very helpful and friendly. Looking forward to trying the indian street food soon.

First time visit to the cafe for breakfast, I chose the Demi breakfast at £7.50, which consisted of, 2 rashers of thick bacon, egg, mushrooms, fresh tomatoes, sausage, hash brown, a pot of baked beans & black pudding. & 2 slices of toast. The staff...

Stopped for lunch whilst walking along the front - so glad we did. This will now be a destination for us in future! Nice seating outside on wooden tables with umbrellas. The service was very friendly and attentive and the food was extremely tasty and presented well. We enjoyed every element of our visit and will definitely return. My son says he rates it as 10 stars! In the evenings I was told they serve Indian Tapas which I’m sure would be well worth a visit.

Nice breakfast. Friendly staff.

If you havent been before, you absolutely need to try The Chameleon Cafe. The food was exceptional ❤️ had a lovely atmosphere, and the staff were amazing. Thank you everyone at The Chameleon Cafe 🥳

I was served with rancid bacon for breakfast would not recommend

I recently had the pleasure of trying the jacket potato with vegetable curry at this restaurant, and I must say that it was absolutely delicious! The dish consisted of a perfectly baked jacket potato, topped with a generous serving of rich and flavorful vegetable curry. Had a nice chat with Chef as well. Highly Recommended

Lovely cafe with a good menu selection using tasty ingredients.

Stopped here for a bacon sandwich and tea great service good value and tasty

1 option for a breakfast that was half cooked and cold. Never again!

Visited on a Feb afternoon and luckily just before they closed. Food was awesome, service great and a good location. Not really anywhere else this end of town so a good restaurant/cafe with generous portions and attentive staff

First visit, really friendly great service and well presented tasty food. Definitely recommend and will return.Prices were great too!

Clean, tidy, good service and comfortable. Will definitely use again. Reasonable prices on food and drink. Alot cheaper than in Hythe high street.

Fantastic food, well priced and excellent service. Coffee is superb too. Very much appreciated and a great place to stop for some food and drink.

Fabulous place to go through the day. Excellent food.People very efficient.Spotlessly clean

I loved the burger, and the chips were lovely as well, salad dressing was nice. For the price you pay, cheap eating! Staff were polite, and service was quick. Cheers👍

Lovely food & service but oh so cold inside on 30th November when my friend & I went in for lunch. We had curry to warm us up but had to eat with our coats on!! Please put some heating on for the customers or you won't have any til summer!!

Had a breakfast with avocado and salmon. Nice presentation and good coffee. Very good friendly service I love personally colourful plates 🤣

First visit very quite. Just had a coffee.

Have the veggie curry jacket potato, excellent

My husband took me to Chameleon once and I fell in love with the food! So I made him take be back again for the best samosa chat everrrrrr! The mango lassi was too good and watermelon drink was the best in the hot weather!...

Wow... excellent experience....the service was fantastic and the food was delicious. Indian type of fusion with a twist. Would definitely go again

Exceptionally food Excellent chicken curry ad rice best ever Staff lovely, lovely atmosphere Can’t wait to go back

We had a wonderful meal at The Chameleon. The atmosphere is relaxed and the dishes are served as they are cooked, not all at once. This makes it easy for everyone to share and chat as they eat, making it a very sociable occasion. There...

Very pleasant staff , lovely good priced and tasty food .. our breakfast, lunch and dinner stop. . Tyr it you won't be disappointed. . and there's plenty of parking , normally .

Food and service very good will most certainly use again

Really well prepared food. Serving portions ideal and well priced

Good espresso and the cake of the day was chocolate fudge and it was surprisingly big and tasty. 🙌

One of the best Indian Tapas place in the area. Great food and excellent service! Would recommend for Indian food lovers.

we thoroughly enjoyed our meal. The delightful starters were delicious and so well created. The place has a comfortable ambiance. The service is kind and attentive. Parking is easy. The sea and walkway is 100 steps away for a pre or post dinner walk.

Cracking food and service, honestly would recommend.

Fantastic cooked breakfast, lovely staff and quick service. Definitely recommend for a breakfast stop.

Big portions and tasty! Had indian tapas. Look of the venue is deceiving - right next to a petrol station! But food is surprisingly good 👍

Good service, great food, just a little expensive

Great tasty food and pleasant staff. Décor has room for improvement, but clean and tidy.

Lush and great customer service

Was super impressed with our two take away burgers , great value for money , plenty of food , real chicken breast in the burger and plenty of fries. For a place that could capitalise on passing public and serve utter rubbish knowing they probably won't be back anytime soon , they surpassed all our expections . Well done .. from a fellow caterer .

excellent breakfast .there was 7 of us and the gentlemen serving us was on his own serving and cooking and did a great breakfast

Great breakfast, excellent service. Definitely recommend.

Fantastic breakfast for seven of us, the very polite helpful gentleman serving was on his own. What cracking service, very fast, well cooked. I hope this guy was the owner, if knot his employers should be well pleased. Very impressed family of seven. John family

The best fish n chips I've ever had. Cod was cooked to perfection in crispy batter. Not cheap. Amazing seaside location Low cost overnight marking in our motorhome

Food was good but the service today was awful. Food arrived before drinks after 20 minutes waiting. Two staff on and not very busy.

Lovely fish and chips along the coastal path.

The meal we had here was the best we’ve had during our holiday. My daughter is fussy yet ate all her burger and said it was delicious. I had an amazing chicken curry and rice the chicken was succulent and the sauce was tasty yet...

We just enjoyed great fish and chips. Great batter and tender, tasty chips. We must return for the evening Indian menu which looks very good and if the fish and chips are to go by, will be! Also essential for a café is the tea...

Very tasty, warm service and delightful presentation. Will definitely be going back

Awesome place, friendly staff and delicious food.Many Thanks to chef satish!!!

Absolutely outstanding food! Quality ingredients, cooked perfectly with a great choice of dishes and drinks. Really all about the great food!

Thank you so much for welcoming the children in Shark class from St Peter’s today. Your generosity is much appreciated and gave the children the energy they needed to continue on their sponsored walk.

Today , we arrived with 30 children , half way through our sponsored walk. The staff were amazing, extremely generous and kind. We were all made to feel welcome and the food and service was amazing! We couldn't have asked for more. Highly recommend

Popped in for lunch after walking from Hythe the young lady welcomed us in and allowed us to take our dog into the resteraunt. Food was great and very well cooked and prices very reasonable. Would really like to try the evening Indian food sometime.

Lovely staff great food and reasonable price,s.Hope to visit again soon..💚❤

We had 4 bottles of beer and some really tasty dishes (samosa chaat, chilli paneer, chilli prawns, rice and paratha) all for £25 each! Definitely recommend and will be back 🤩
