Went here to get a cuppa, before we got our coach home. Had a chat and laugh with the manager, didn't mind us sitting for a while. Good range of foods on offer, and caters for all tastes. Very friendly.

I came here for lunch based on the overwhelmingly positive reviews and the fact they cater to different dietary requirements and they did not disappoint in the least! I got the warmest welcome, Gary and Tara are possibly the friendliest and funniest couple! They obviously take great pride in their shop and work hard to keep it that way. I got a delicious mackerel salad made for me by Tara.

We went to Gilbert’s for lunch and was very impressed by the service and food. To quote my husband “this is the best breakfast bap I have ever had” I had pancakes with bacon and maple syrup. It was amazing!!!

Sat outside with my dogs. Inside the building a delicious selection of eclectic food stuffs from around the world. I chose for my breakfast a bacon, black pudding and pea ketchup baguette with a mug of Yorkshire tea and sausages for the dogs . Totally delicious and unique.

I have ventured down to Whitstable on quite a few occasions from London. Love the place but find eating out difficult. Lots of choice but little imagination & value. Then I stumbled across this gem. Great selection of food & the hosts are extremely warm & hospitable. I chose the Ruben on a Kent Huffkin. Never heard of a Huffkin before but there you go. Extremely satisfying, good price & excellent service. Great selection of unusual but tasty ingredients on sale too. Cannot cook my roast potatoes now without adding a sprinkle of Mrs Ts of Whitstable seasoning mix. It's so good. Good Luck Gary & Tara. You have a great business here & I look forward to repeat

I escaped London to live in Whitstable for a year during lockdown and would regularly treat myself to a jacket potato at Gilberts as a midweek lunch. Gary and Tara always greeted me with a smile, and are so friendly and warm to everyone. You can tell they're a big part of the local community. And as for the potato - I say this with all honesty - best jacket potato ever. The handmade coleslaw is 10/10. They also do a wide selection of veggie and vegan food, and lots of lovely deli bits. You won't be disappointed if you pop in for lunch or breakfast!

Quick lunch here today resulted in me experiencing the best baked potato I’ve ever eaten, sounds trivial but this place needs recognition. From the exterior it looks very unassuming, I will definitely be returning and would recommend to anyone.

This was our second visit and we were not disappointed. We had the granary Huffkin ploughmans and these were delicious. The coleslaw and condiments were delicious, as was the coffee. The service is friendly and the owners clearly take pride in their food. It’s well worth the walk to the other end of the high street.

Our expectations of the food we took away from Gilberts were pretty high, seeing as the owners were so immediately warm and friendly to us and our grumpy baby, but were exceeded the minute we bit into our sandwich. The menu is fun, creative and...

Was offered a sample of Blue Aurora blueberry wine, then bought a bottle and some of their cider and other bits including Belgian choc custard! Charming and interesting interior, arranged with a lot of thought and superb customer service. Will be visiting again soon.

Just had an amazing Valentine's meal for two at the Wallflower. Fine dining at its very best, comparable to any London restaurants we have visited. This is the star of vegan fine dining, three course
