Kaya Meze Bar in Medway

I made a booking for a surprise birthday meal with a group of 15 people and staff were very accommodating, friendly and service was very swift. I definitely recommend this restaurant and will be returning back in the future!

amazing service with a group of 15

I really had a nice time here. I like that there is parking close by and the restaurant is just a few minutes walk from the car park. It was very easy to locate the restaurant. The staff were very friendly and receptive. The interior looked really nice, good lighting. I think the orders were timely, didn't have to wait forever to have my food served. The meat was sooooo tasty, and tasted really fresh. The cocktail drinks were spot on. I think the prices were fair as well. Will definitely be going back

Beautiful restaurant with great food and great staff!

The best food. We booked brunch and felt so welcome with our waitress Chantelle. The best food x

The food and atmosphere was fantastic. Really impressed by the service too. We were served by Debra who was excellent. Recommend it to anyone in the area who likes good quality Meze!

Amazing food, good service, really enjoyed valentines meal here, very relaxed amazing decor and you feel very welcome. Overall great restaurant.

Went for a bottomless brunch and had the best time ! Best music and DJ ! Maddie and Chantelle have really looked after us and has made the experience so Thankyou girls ♥️♥️

We popped in for lunch on a quiet wet Monday. The food was excellent and service very friendly.

Just been here for valentines and I was amazed by everything, the atmosphere was great, the food was outstanding and the service was perfect! We felt so welcome and will definitely come again, thank you 🌹 I also got given a rose for valentines and some shots on the house

food and drink were so lovely and delicious and reasonably priced!! definitely recommend

Very quick service, hostess was very polite. Food was DELICIOUS I had the Chicken Shish and the meat was so well seasoned and juicy the rice was very well cooked. The drinks were very fruity and tasty. The espresso martini was very creamy and smooth and the cocoa powder added a nice touch. Also all the employees were very sweet and charming.

firstly let me say I wish I came here sooner wowww what a resturant the decor was absolutely stunning erkan could not of been more helpful the bar man was a genius with the cocktails and the food was absolutely amazing and will be going back for valentines day and even after that 10 out of 10 for me 👌🏿I did take videos but can not upload them but take my word for it people getyourself down there

Literally the best lamb I have ever had. Moist and tender, so juicy and tasty. Would definitely recommend the Lamb Shish. Great service too.

First time here and we will definitely be back Food was fabulous, very tasty! The lamb chops were huge! Lovely atmosphere and very attentive and friendly staff

Delicious food, lovely ambience, fantastic service! Went there for my birthday and it was wonderful - would recommend!

Lunch menu delicious food, great staff very attentive

Outstanding food and great service.

Last week on Wednesday, New Years Eve lunchtime, my son, daughter in law and grandson, invited me to join them for lunch at your restaurant. The welcome from your staff was so friendly and the decor excellent. Although you were really busy prepping for the New Year’s Eve celebrations, nothing was too much trouble. The Service and food were excellent, cocktails superb and I can honestly say it was one of the best lunches I’ve experienced, for a very long time. Thank you. I thoroughly recommend your restaurant.

Went to this restaurant last night to celebrate a birthday, we were a table of 10 and couldn't fault any part of the evening, the food was absolutely delicious and plenty of it, the service was amazing, very friendly and nothing was too much trouble. I will definitely go again and would highly recommend 😊

Been a few time over the past year and have always been welcomed by their friendly staff. Food is unreal, atmosphere is great and the staff cater you well. Highly recommend if you are in the area and fancy a little meal, or even a more lively night out meal. The cocktails are the best!

Came here for a friends birthday. Food is exceptional. Service very friendly. Went above and beyond. Lovely atmosphere. Esi was especially brilliant. Will be returning. Thank you

Stunning restaurant with amazing staff and the best food in Medway! The guys here looked after us all extremely well and made sure we felt catered for and welcome. The food was absolutely unreal and the cocktails were fantastic. Also catered for children, my daughter loved her non alcoholic cocktail ❤️ Thanks Kaya Meze we’ll be back soon x

Great service and great food Would highly recommend Mixed grill is a must 👌🏻

Great food and staff. Restaurant atmosphere is modern and sleek. Went above and beyond for our table. Cocktails are 10/10 as well!

Such amazing service with our table of 10+ and amazing food and , especially the cocktails 🍸

Went for Christmas meal with work colleagues as place was booked. Very crowded. My chosen main meal was chicken casserole, which came already very late and it was without rice and salad. After finishing the meal we were asked to leave the place. Not re commending

They managed to fit us in without a booking on a busy Saturday night, letting us know we would only have an hour but that was perfect for us. The food and service was really great. I just had a chicken shish but the flavours were amazing, including the side salad. I’ve been craving it ever since, will definitely be back again.

To start, the service was appalling, they didn’t have any drinks and you could only drink what they have for you 😂. Food was simply okay at best but it came before the drinks and the waiter was in NO rush to fix this. Eventually saying all they had was corona and giving our table odd looks. It was clear that they had no interest in providing a good service and the entire experience was a lesson in frustration. I wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone who values a good service, save your time and go somewhere else. Abysmal, to say the least, ruined what should have been a lovely Christmas evening. I am not happy

Great food, great vibes, love the decor. Our favorite is sitting out in the glasshouse at the back. It's beautiful in there. The manager Esi is always so welcoming and helpful always able to solve any issues. There was 14 of us and all of us got out food no problems

Fabulous food great staff can't fault it

The food was absolutely delish and felt looked after and comfy straight away, the staff couldn't of been more helpful nice and chatty which I love xxx will definitely be recommending and most definitely be making this 1 of our best restaurants to go too. Btw I had the lamb sooooo soft n juicy x

Excellent service Great atmosphere Very friendly And the food was absolutely amazing Quality service and food Definitely recommend

We loved our visit today. The food was heavenly delicious 😇 I had grilled salmon, and it was the best grilled salmon I’ve had in a restaurant. They’ve got really nice staff, really nice to my children, good service and a nice atmosphere. Will definitely return. Thanks all

Just stopped buy as I’ve heard great things about this restaurant, very busy but done me a take away mixed grill for my cheat meal plus 2 free drinks, very welcoming

Went to the bottomless brunch, great food and flowing drinks. xx

Great food great atmosphere, sedo was a great host definitely would recommend

We chose Kaya Meze Bar for our wedding dinner, and overall, it was a lovely experience. The restaurant itself is beautiful, with a great atmosphere, and the staff were incredibly friendly, especially the female waitresses, who were attentive and kind throughout the evening. The food was absolutely delicious—everything we tried had amazing flavors, and our guests were impressed. However, the timing of the service left something to be desired. We were a party of 22, and while we understand the challenges of serving a large group, it took a bit longer than expected for the food to arrive. Unfortunately, not everyone received their meals at the same time, which led to some awkward moments where some guests were finishing their meals while others hadn’t even been served yet. That being said, the manager was very apologetic and accommodating, which we appreciated. If the food had all arrived together, it would have made the experience feel seamless and truly amazing. Thanks again to the team at Kaya Meze Bar for their hospitality!

Absolutely great time... sedo was the best

Visited with my family. Needed to use the baby change. Not the best experience as it was in the middle of the staircase and had a draft. Light is going off every 10secs so impossible for one person to change the nappies! Food is good and it is freshly cooked! The waiters were kind and happy to help with anything.

Fantastic service and food, G.G was lovely and took very good care of us. Would definitely recommend the restaurant and I’ll be back

Lunch menu very reasonable. 2 courses £16. Portions more than enough. Recommend.

one dinner took a while but compensated with a cocktail

Everything was 10/10 and the service from Sedo was amazing. Couldn't ask for better!! Highly recommend the Bottomless brunch, good vibes, good food and the cocktails are unreal.

Just went here for a friend's birthday. Really lively staff, great atmosphere and great food- ribs we're amazing. Definitely recommend

First time for me and second for my husband. Starter was really nice but my main was ok, nothing special. I was ordering king prawn something but they didn’t have delivery so I have prawn starter, and was order for 2x for my main, but they give me 3x instead. But unfortunately is not for my liking. It’s not their fault just not for me I guess

The food was absolutely fantastic and well presented. We ordered the hot meze and portions were of a good size. For the mains, we ordered the lamb and chicken, which was very moist and well flavoured. What really topped of our visit was the lady that served us. Gigi was very attentive to all our needs and was very helpful and friendly. We will definitely be returning.

Absolutely deliciously, always, fresh food, staff friendly and great service, love the place , thank you

A very warm welcome by the staff. My wife and I had lunch from the lunch menu (£15.99) for 2 courses. Absolutely delicious food. We'll presented, but for us, the quantity was far too much....quality was excellent. Definitely recommend this restaurant but be warned.....huge amount of food!!!!

Lovely staff and are very happy to answer any questions you have regarding their bottomless brunch.

Thank you to all the staff who looked after us so well throughout our bottomless brunch, to celebrate my birthday - it was a whole vibe! Decor is lovely, ambience is perfect. Food was👌🏽and DJ jess_bee_official was 🔥🔥 Would highly recommend and will definitely be returning.

We had a lovely brunch, the food was brilliant and the service was amazing. The DJaaaayyy was fabulous.

I had an incredible dining experience at Kaya Meze Bar! The atmosphere is vibrant and welcoming, making it the perfect spot to eat . Every bite was a delightful The staff were attentiveI’ll definitely be coming back

Really hospitable staff, great selection and definitely among the best Meze I’ve had

Had a birthday dinner at this lovely restaurant, total of 9 people including kids, wonderful place. Food is very tasty, different choices, helpful staff members, definitely will go back to enjoy some more nice dishes!

The food and cocktails were really nice, but we realised after that they had not taken our booking fee of the total at the end so they got an extra £30 out of us as well as service charge. I don’t know whether they ware seeing if we wouldn’t realise but of course we didn’t until we after we left. Very disappointing.

Very slow service, took 20 minutes to order a drink, 30 minutes before starters were ordered. Main meal got mixed up and forgotten yet was still on the bill to be charged for. When asked for more prosecco for bottomless brunch was told no. Certain staff very argumentative! Music cut off at 6pm even though our 2 hour brunch hasn’t finished. Thoroughly disappointed

Girls night out, we've been couple of times before been great , this time complete shambles from start to finish. We arrived few mins after booked time had to wait a bit for table. Drinks ordered some arrived but no prosecco & had to ask for glasses for jug of water. After 20mins queried prosecco not arrived still not arrived 10mins later & told think weve run out. We then ordered bottle of pinot grigio after further 10mins prosecco arrived! Starters came probably at least 50mins after ordering had to ask for knives & forks as none forthcoming! Told mains ready as soon as we finished starters......ok....then no it was another tables mains.....mains were then long time coming....served in dribs & drabs & then nothing for 1 person. Chased missing meal twice then friend said no forget it everyone's nearly finished now, take off bill...course then it arrived but agreed not to charge. We complained further to waitress & manager came over. His attitude was terrible no real apology/empathy just excuses, wanted to give us all free shots, no were not all drinking and don't want shots anyway, he agreed to take prosecco off bill. Kept saying are you happy now, will you come back (no not happy spoilt evening & no won't be back). He then told off waitress in our view/earshot, very unprofessional. Its a real shame as food is very good but clearly not enough staff/business not managed well.

Every time I come here I’m never disappointed. The most friendliest staff who are always polite and make you feel at ease straight away. The food and service is outstanding…..one of my fave places ❤️

Great place to go for a group looking to enjoy the atmosphere and have fun. Service and energy were amazing. We had a great time.

Absolutely amazing food. Maddie was Absolutely amazing. Would reccomend Kaya 100% will def be back x

Great restaurant, food and service 5 star. Definitely recommend and cater for large parties. Thank you

Chantelle was amazing food great would definitely come back

We were seated by a lovely waiter but did ask to such seats as it was quite busy and another man (possibly manager/owner) made us feel that it was no problem at all. They moved us and another young woman asked us if we were ready to order, which we were. I asked if a dish could be slightly amended and the waitress said she wasn't sure but could find out. Another waitress came over and she, very aggressively said nothing could be changed. I accepted this and ordered something else from the menu. I had the lamb casserole and my friend had the portobello mushrooms. Mine was very bland and a little chewy. Not so bad that I sent it back though. The rice wasn't great either but it was edible. The small side salad was really lovely and tasty. The mushrooms were somewhat underwhelming too. No one asked how our meals were but I guess we had it better than the couple on the next table, who only got one main meal between them. Such a shame as the staff of the front part of the restaurant were so lovely, it might have been a better experience if they were all like that.

When we turned up we were originally told we couldn't be seated despite having a reservation, then waited over 90 minutes for food, it finally turned up as we were about to leave, tables seated after us were served an hour before we were, what we received I've had better with bigger portions for cheaper from my local.

Yummy food and reasonable portion sizes. Loads of staff who were a bit much at times and it did take a while for the mains after the starter. I had goats cheese marmalade to start which was basically breadcrumbed and deep fried goats cheese on a sea of strawberry jam. Slightly odd but it was tasty. Pide bread very good :)

Food ok. Service was poor and unruly drunk clientele

The waiters were amazing & the brunch was good fun!

Great place, best brunch ive had in rochester!!

Amazing attentative stsff, nothing was too much hassle for the staff. Great food, delicious cocktails. Can’t wait until my next visit

Lovely brunch great food and good fun

Had a really lovely meal. Service was top notch and the food was well cooked and delicious. Would go there again.

Yummy Lunch at reasonable price served by warm and friendly manager. Really glad to go there and will surely come back again

Best restaurant in Rochester, with THE best service! 100% recommended.

Came here with my family and every disappointment with the service I complained about a meal that we waited for 45 minutes for a mains ,which we asked how long then was told a couple of minutes when my meal came out( lamb iskender) it was cold I complained and the service gentleman look at me as if he did have a clue of what to do. I repeated it's cold then he said the chef can reheat it or something. He then said ten mins to wait and when it came out second time round the food had SPIT in it I complained and he didn't say anything!!! Very disappointed how we were treated .

1st time here an the food was absolutely delicious, we had the lunch time special 2 course meal. Bargain😋🙂defo going again

Brilliant brunch, one of the best we have been to. Fabulous drinks. Fabulous service, fabulous food. We will definitely be back!

A lovely meal and great atmosphere

Had a lovely meal there. Food quality was spot on. And the lunchtime deal was good value. Would readily go back.

The food is so nice and the customer service is top tier! The staff are so lovely and the restaurant looks beautiful for pictures as well as to dine in. Would recommend and definitely will be returning.

One waiter for whole of upstairs area on a Saturday evening, 26 diners in total. Waited one hour for main, individual drinks arrived in dribs and drabs. Had to grab my friend's glass of white from next to the till in the end as it was getting warm. Our comments about the bad service were totally ignored. A request for a drink on the house for our patience was refused. I was one of a table of five and we all found the food to be mediocre. One seat had a broken back. Never again.

Atmosphere, food & drinks were decent! Service was good.

Pricey & understaffed (Friday night). Lots of big tables, they could not cope. 2 of our party waited 40 mins for their drinks, and chased their main course 4 times. Serve £9 Pinot Grigio Freixenet for £27.50. £5 for a bottle of water. Food pretty good, not massively fancy. Big table nearby barely touched their main course as it turned up so late they gad another venue to be at. The senior server was on the ball however and clearly deeply embarrased. Very good with food allergies.

Very friendly staff , very good quality food but very expensive £57 for x2 coke with a mixed shish and a chicken shish with chips and very small salad.

Great one for lunch with lots of set lunch options. So we ordered several dishes and shared food, so that we could try as many of them. Even if you are not a great fan of spice, you can find something from the menu. Attentive service. They changed the plates and cleaned your table after the appetiser, which I didn’t expect. However, it was really difficult to find a parking slot in Rochester during lunch hour.

Wow what can I say! what an absolute delight it was at Kaya Meze Bar. The staff couldn’t do enough for us, very professional at all times we were there for a bottomless brunch! And was not Disappointed at all, the food was excellent. Well done to the owner and his team. Definitely will be going back.

Such a good time! Bottomless brunch was brilliantb staff were incredibly attentive especially Sedo! Food was amazing great value for money!

This might be the best food available in Rochester!!! We had calamari rings, prawn cocktail and halloumi as starters, lamb casserole, lamb iskender, chicken shish as mains, and Baklava as dessert. Every single dish was amazing! The service was excellent (special shout to Siddharth), and the atmosphere was energetic!!!

Amazing staff, very fast and kind. Service was very speedy and staff were all very helpful. Very good place to go for any tourists and people in general who live within the area. Would definitely come back again.

Great Food, Great Service, Great Cocktails. Would Recommend 👍🏼

Amazing service from staff and great food.

The food was delicious and the service was so so lovely! Such a kind manager.

We had a celebratory meal here and it was amazing. The food was fantastic, the staff were all lovely and helpful. The ambience was relaxing( dined in the garden). Overall, it was an amazing experience.

The lunch menu offer a broad array of choice. Good portion sizes. Nicely marinated chicken and fantastic Falafel

Had a lovely Prosecco brunch (bottomless) great atmosphere lovely food, cocktails are amazing. Dj played some great tunes and the staff made my birthday special thank u 😊 5 stars plus

10/10 experience tonight at kaya meze. The staff have been incredible, the DJ was a really good touch, the staff couldn’t have done more for us. The food was incredible especially the baklava dessert. Can tell it was home made and was so good.

Absolutely amazing place, cocktails are amazing, food is the best food I've tasted. Thank you so much!

Food was absolutely amazing. Cocktails are lovely. Fantastic service
