We were staying in Canterbury for my wife's birthday and decided to visit this restaurant after seeing generally excellent online reviews. It is a little off the beaten track and has a fairly unprepossessing entrance but the upstairs dining room is pleasant and we were well looked after. The menu provided many interesting choices. For example, my seared tuna was presented on a bed of fruit salad, which seemed odd on paper but worked surprisingly well in practice! Both the tuna and my wife's red mullet were perfectly prepared, as were the accompanying vegetables. We would not hesitate to come here again.

This is a terrific little restaurant with a lovely ambience and delicious food. We enjoyed really well cooked, different Italian dishes which pushed us out of our comfort zone, but which were stunning. The restaurant isn't huge, which means it felt intimate and wasn't too noisy. Service was excellent - not too slow but giving us enough time between each course to enjoy a chat and some wine. The entrance to the restaurant is understated and unprepossessing, but please don't let that put you off. A lovely, relaxed experience. Highly recommend

Found this restaurant on the top 10 places to eat in canterbury. We had bread and oil and deep fried zucchini for starters which was lovely the bread was warm and the batter on the zucchini was light and fluffy. Then we shared the T-bone steak (this is only served medium rare) it was delicious. The potatoes we're the best I've ever eaten in a restaurant and the chilli spinach was delicious. A nice friendly atmosphere and service was great. My only bug bare (it's the same with all restaurants that don't have any beer on tap) £5.95 for a small bottle of beer. It does leave you feeling a little ripped off. But don't let that stop you from trying this wonderful restaurant.

We saw all the great reviews and were looking forward to eating here but it was very disappointing. We were served complementary cold hard deep fried pizza dough that was unpleasant and salty. The red mullet was over cooked and served on raw fennel. The scamorza croquette that accompanied the venison was cold in the middle. The fregola didn’t have any king prawns in it and was covered in rock samphire rather than samphire which was over powering. It was also drowning in squid ink. The kids had mini pizzas which arrived well before their starters. The food for the adults took a very long time to arrive. To be fair we were refunded for two meals, but it spoilt the night.

Really pretty dining room and nice and friendly environment. Classy but also comfortable. Very nice meal but we were waiting for almost 1 hour to get our food and had to order a couple of things twice because one of the waiters seemed a bit new and kept forgetting it. I highly recommend ordering desert, they are a true work of art and delicious as well.

This is a great restaurant. We stumbled across it while walking around Canterbury. the menu looked great so we booked it by email. When we got there that evening the service was exemplary and the food was excellent. We has three courses, all of them were great but the desert courses were an absolute standout. I'd definitely recommend you try it, you won't be disappointed.

Sadly, this is one of the worst meals I can ever remember having. Hugely disappointing. The menu looked okay and I ordered a pasta dish. The cold pasta was very undercooked, stiff, rubbery tubes, in a small amount of revolting, dark brown, slimy liquid. I told the waiter and he said it had been cooked 'al dente' - nonsense! It bore absolutely no resemblance to authentic Italian cooking. Then the dish was heated up and I only ate some of it as I was very hungry. I wish I had turned it away and left straightaway as it was really inedible. I certainly would not recommend this restaurant on the strength of that meal. I was incredulous that they have the nerve to serve that dish in the name of Italian cooking!

This has to be the best restaurant in Canterbury, if not one of the best Italian restaurants we have eaten in. WE enjoyed a superb meal our only regret being that it's not open for lunch anymore. Every dish was superb, there is an excellent choice of wine and the service is friendly but unobtrusive. The value for money beats any of the more lauded Canterbury restaurants. Diners should be queuing around the block to eat here.

We had the prawn starter and Tortolini main. Prawns were cold and not cooked fresh. The tortolina pasta was dry and looked warmed up as some had brown marks on them, the pasta was definately not fresh cooked. The plates were unbearably hot. The sauce was black and flavourless. Chocolate mousse desert did not taste of chocolate and was overpowered by sweet raspberry ice cream..overall not good quality for the price.£100.We wont be returning.

Good food but the restaurant feels confused. The menu appeals to a more refined palette with the likes of guinea fowl, wild boar, venison. We went to visit because they advertised a 1Kg t bone. Unfortunately they had sold the two they had and with no other steak alternative which was disappointing. Whilst the food we had was good I think this restaurant would benefit from offering some basics like a lasagne, sea food linguini, bolognaise etc the ambience is chilled but feels more pizzeria themed and I think if they threw a few white table cloths down it would make the quality of food and presentation match the theme...ie a bit more up market. The restaurant is a little on the outskirts of town which doesn't help. We left because some loud mouth sat next to us spoiled the atmosphere by swearing and being ignorant otherwise we might have had dessert. Worth a visit but I really think some small changes would benefit this restaurant and encourage more business.

The best Tuscan food I've outside of Tuscany ! (And I have been to Tuscany many times.) I used to come to this delightful little restaurant often when I lived nearby, but then I moved away and had not been back for several years. I appreciated the renewed menu and my companion and I both loved everything we tried. The perfectly fried polenta with a rich, dense sauce of wild mushrooms and taggiasche olives was an excellent starter and the honey glazed breast of guinea fowl with saffron potatoes was truly exquisite. For dessert, my espresso pannacotta with chocolate/coffee sauce and Tuscan almond biscuit crumbles was out of this world, and creatively served in an original Bialetti Moka coffee pot! My companion enjoyed tender tortelloni filled with braised wild boar, accompanied by blueberries, red wine reduction and shaves of truffle pecorino cheese followed by a mousse di cioccolato (dark chocolate , ginger and raspberries). We shared a bottle of lovely, light, Nero d'Avola (under £20), which was the ideal accompaniment. We will certainly come back here next time we have any kind of special occasion, because this fabulous food is definitely worthy of celebration. The extremely high quality of the food is obviously based on the best ingredients and most expert cooking, and more than justifies the slightly higher prices.

Went as a couple. Didn't realize they open at 18:30 so we were just a little early. So if you do want an early dinner do consider this. The sitting area is upstairs. I couldn't tell if they have a lift so something to consider if you have mobility issues. We got to pick the table as we were the first to arrive.Waiters were attentive throughout our meal. The meal itself was lovely and beautifully presented, but I would say portion wise you probably need a starter, main sides or deserts to fill you up. This does mean the bill adds up. So would recommend it but be prepared to dig a little deeper into your pockets if you want to go away satisfied

We recently had the pleasure of dining at Chapters Pizzeria in Canterbury, and I must say, it was an absolutely delightful experience from start to finish. The moment we walked in, we was greeted by the warm and inviting atmosphere that instantly made me feel at home. The staff at Chapters Pizzeria were nothing short of incredible. Izzy and Kate, in particular, went above and beyond to ensure that our visit was memorable. They were so lovely, helpful, and wonderful, making sure that every aspect of our meal was perfect. Their genuine smiles and attentive service and knowledge of the menu added a personal touch that is hard to find. The food was simply fantastic! The pizzas were cooked to perfection, with a deliciously crispy crust and a perfect balance of toppings. But what truly stood out was the ice cream that Izzy made. It was absolutely divine, and with some added personal flair. Overall, Chapters Pizzeria offers a fantastic dining experience. The quality of the food, combined with the outstanding service from Izzy and Kate, makes it a must-visit spot in Canterbury. If you're looking for a place with great food, a wonderful atmosphere, and exceptional staff, look no further than Chapters Pizzeria.
