Kitch in Canterbury

horrible experience, food items were missing, food was spilling out, asked for cutlery didn't get any. overall terrible experience

Last few orders has been late despite ordering well in advance. (Sometimes even ordering the night before or at least 4-5 hours in advance. Food is great but on-time delivery has been deteriorating as of late. Will continue to order from them though

We had a late breakfast at Kitch. The coffees were good, though not very hot. The avocado, tomato bruschetta was super. The omelette with onion and peppers and that with spinach and feta were really delicious. Their bloomer bread is tasty. It is very well located on the High Street.

Follow up review - this is now my go to cafe in Canterbury, it’s bloody fantastic!!! Popped in for breakfast and a coffee and it was absolutely brilliant- coffee was really tasty and the eggs Benedict was a masterpiece - the bacon was thick and cooked to perfection!

Gorgeous cake and hot chocolate!!

Wonderful freshly prepared food and very good quality ingredients.

Just so you know I hate balsamic vinegar glazes. So for next time please don’t offer any or include it. Other than that awesome thanks

Quite busy when we visited but the staff were very pleasant. Food arrived quickly once ordered. We all enjoyed the breakfasts very much

Surprisingly, one of the most delicious coffee shops that serve breakfast, especially the waffle dish with eggs and avocado

The food and atmosphere is amazing. Very friendly and kind staff. The owners are very friendly and always open to conversation and to share a laugh. Kitch us very much worth a visit if you're in Canterbury. You cannot miss it. Forget the other coffee shops or cafe. Go to Kitch. You will not be disappointed. 5 stars 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

What an amazing gem this place is! Found it based on recommendations and so glad I got to try it on my visit to Canterbury. I got the veggie breakfast which has got to be up there with one of the best I’ve had. Special mention to the falafel balls and hummus. The ingredients were high quality and fresh and a lot of care and attention had gone into the breakfast. The coffee was lovely and it’s a great space with upstairs seating also available and if you’re lucky to get a window seat you can overlook the town.

Kitch is a very nice place in Canterbury. We had super tasty brunch, delicious veggie juice and tea. (And some cake for take away.) The quality, the service was also really high level. If you are in Canterbury, I recommend to try something from the menu.

Good food, for lunch or brunch, pleasant service

Fantastic range of food. Two of our party have coeliac Disease and virtually all the menu was suitable. Very attentive service. Highly recommended the Eggs Royal was superb.

Deserts 10 of 10!!!! Very cozy place 🤍

We loved it. No refined sugar, only good things

Excellent quality service the food was wonderful I had an amazing experience I really enjoyed my dessert which was lemon and coconut with icing it was the best dessert I have ever tasted the flavours work together really well I would say it's five star quality made and the best coffee shop which I have visited was in Canterbury

Ordered black coffee which was like bitter dishwater

Great quality breakfasts and decent atmosphere. Staff and cooks are so friendly.

Great little cafe/brunch spot. Had the Bacon Benedict with Avocado and freshly squeezed orange juice, which were both very good! All the staff were friendly and attentive. Overall, an enjoyable brunch and we’d definitely go again when visiting Canterbury.

Loads of vegan options on the menu. We went at around 2pm on a busy bank holiday but were seated immediately. The next two groups who entered after us were asked to come back 30 mins later and given free drink vouchers for the inconvenience. Our waitress (didn’t get her name but she was Canadian) was so friendly and welcoming, perfect service despite being rushed off her feet and looking like she was doing most of the meeting & greeting and taking orders. I ordered a turmeric cauliflower and hummus bagel. After about 20 minutes a different waitress came over and said the system had deleted our orders and asked us to repeat them. Another 20 minutes later the food arrived but my order was wrong, the sandwich was on toasted brown bread instead of a bagel. Because of the long time taken to make the food I agreed to keep it instead of asking for a replacement, but remarked upon other customers being given free drinks for their inconvenience and (unusually for me) asked for a discount. To her credit, the manager gave us a very generous 50% discount on the entire bill. The drinks were insanely expensive - £5.50 for an orange juice, £3+ for a small soft drink. The food is also very expensive for what you get. My sandwich (£11) was dry and didn’t taste of much. Not worth the high prices and long waits IMO but our waitress was lovely.

Great food, great customer service. Upstairs has air con, only downside is it can get cramped when busy.

What a delicious breakfast. Pancakes and smoothies were amazing!

Lovely food and lovely friendly service. Very healthy and we like to support small , local businesses. I had already researched Canterbury and we wanted a tasty, not too pricey brunch, sitting on a pretty street -which was exactly what we got.

Another regular spot for my wife and I on 6 visits from New Zealand over the years. Nice ambience, nice service, nice food & drinks. Very nice all round.

Healthy food options and attentive service from the owner of the cafe. Tried the Hungarian beef stew, which was nice and the home made almond matcha cake. Will recommend a visit.

Very slow service, mediocre food.

White possibly one if the nicest breakfasts I've had! Pretty, bright and airy cafe with fresh looking and feeling decor. Coffee was rich and smooth and served in a substantial cup. I ordered the spinach and feta omelette with smoked salmon - and what a pretty plate that was. It looked so inviting....and tasted amazing. Perfect start to my day. I will be visiting again.

Great avocado toast! It’s a comfortable place to relax and chat with friends.

Brunch was our of this world. Great food and friendly service. Highly recommended.

missing smoked salmon from the omelette.

An awesome little find in the centre of Canterbury. As a pre-booked party of 20, they literally couldn’t have been more welcoming. The service, ambience and food were all amazing. And a lovely little extra of Ferrero Rocher and Kinder Eggs for the members of our party with a nut allergy were just lovely. Thank you Monika!

Lovely friendly cafe. Food is absolutely lovely. Imaginative menu and extremely tasty!! Decor is lovely. Made very welcome.

The best and most unusual choices for breakfast, brunch and lunch! Another review described the menu as vibrant and it really is . We had the nicest smoothies ever ( such lovely and different ingredients) and a delicious waffle brunch. It was so hard to choose as I wanted everything on the menu. There are so many excellent ( and healthy) choices of food and also drinks. The cafe is bigger than it looks so don’t worry if it seems full. The service is great too - very friendly and efficient. We are already planning to go back . Recommend!

Lovely little cafe. Healthy food and very tasty. I had the Goddess Bowl with Chicken which left me full, but I still managed to fit in a slice of rose and pistachio cake . Beautiful. The staff were professional and attentive and allowed me to read my book and drink my tea in peace once I’d finished . A lovely experience.

100/10, absolutely great. Love the atmosphere and decor and the food is phenomenal! Dishes I would absolutely recommend include: Bruschetta, Club Sandwich, Eggs Florentine, Banana and Peanut Butter Pancakes, Avocado Waffle Sandwich

Terrific lunch served quickly and delicious!

I was really surprised by how good this was. The panels were fantastic, the sandwich was great. And I was especially surprised to get poached eggs that were well poached but also survived the trip! Great teas and coffees too!

Such a lovely cafe in Canterbury in city centre,the staff is really friendly and helpful..the food is delicious! They also have a lot of gf and vegan options,plenty of hot drinks as well as smoothies and veggie juices everything is freshly made! Highly recommended:)

Little mishap with drinks on previous order but staff sent them over with a lovely cake. Lovely food and drink as always in store and online. Perfect place for breakfast/lunch.

Tasty food and coffee. Good portion as well. There’s a bit of wait and the best part is no pressure given by staff to go when we finish our food. Had a nice brunch that.

Almost perfect but only because it doesn’t exist! Pouring with rain in Canterbury. Kitch was the perfect antidote - welcoming, seated immediately and great coffee and food. Very attentive and relaxed service. Full range of vegan milks and superb coffee with double shots in large coffees. Well worth the visit. Really nice offers omelette with seeded salad on the side. I eat keto and this was easy to do here. Going to the cathedral? Grab lunch here.

Honestly expected more service was bad for me specifically and food was so underwhelming honestly disappointed maybe they had a off day or something but not a good first impression.

delicious breakfast, will visit again!

Excellent coffee very beautiful place and fantastic food

We had a really lovely time at this Cafe, it’s bright & airy & really clean. We were made very welcome inside with our 2 dogs in tow & all staff were friendly and helpful when it came to our menu choices. Our oat milk coffees were excellent (no overheated milk here) & the Vegan Breakfast & Vegan Benedict were SO GOOD. It wasn’t cheap but really worth every penny & we will definitely return if we find ourselves In Canterbury centre again. 5 stars.

Visited about an hour before closing time. The cafe was still relatively busy with lots of takeaway orders and several people sitting in. Staff were very pleasant and service was quick. Many of the cakes had sold out by the time I arrived but I could see from the labels left on the counter that they had an excellent range for vegans and gluten-free diets. I had a tea and a slice of the vegan chocolate cake. I think it cost aroung £8 for a tea with plant milk and the cake. Cafe is easy to spot on the main high street and in a good spot for people-watching!

Really homegrown and pure food , loved the every bite of my breakfast and carrot cake 🤤.

Lovely food and staff, but £3.90 for a can of Coke leaves a bad taste.

Really good coffee Nice choice of cakes including a lot of gluten free choices. Knowledgeable about coeliacs. Nice homemade mint lemonade. Friendly place

Cosy cute setting in a central location. Good range of vegetarian and even vegan brunch options. The Croque Pardon sandwich with courgette filling was delicious and quite filling. Also had a slice of lemon cake which was tasty but a bit too sweet for me.

Delicious sandwiches - we had the Salmon and Cream Cheese sandwich and the the Kitch Club Sandwich. Both were excellent: fresh ingredients and portions. The sourdough bread was crunchy and flavourful. The prices are higher than one would normally expect for a sandwich, but considering you’re in the heart of touristy Canterbury, you can’t be too surprised!

My favourite place in Canterbury! Food is amazing, fresh and healthy. I’m coeliac and the whole menu is adaptable for gluten free. They have extra care for cross contamination. Also vegan options.

Awesome breakfast, lots of GF options food is fresh and tastes awesome, had a full English and did not regret it!

Had a lovely coffee & veggie breakfast here this morning. All the ingredients tasted so fresh. I decided to try a turmeric latte as I have never had that before and so pleased I did as I really enjoyed it. Everything was made perfectly and with attention to detail. I would highly recommend Kitch and am looking forward to visiting again the next time I’m in Canterbury. Thank you to the friendly staff for a nice relaxing morning for me :)

Cute little breakfast and brunch place. Food and drinks were delicious.

Unique and special place among large restaurants in the downtown. Kind, enthusiastic and dedicated staff, beautiful and rich plates, healthy drinks. Must visit when you are in Canterbury :)

My bf took me away for a relaxing weekend and we had our breakfast here. The food was delicious and the service was first class. We will be back

Really enjoyed breakfast. Bacon Benedict on croissant

Lovely food & fast service. The cakes were a particular highlight. It's a relaxed cafe vibe but with fresh food and friendly service

Picked up a slice of cake and an earl grey tea to go - SUCH lovely takeaway service where you can add your own milk, tea was filled to leave room for milk and carrying so it didn't spill and the cake came with disposable, eco-friendly cutlery and a napkin. The cake was delicious and the service could not have been more thoughtful and kind.

Lovely little cafe, serving a very varied menu. Host was very attentive and friendly. Service was prompt.Food was amazing!

Had a great breakfast today. Really high quality food and lovely staff

Kitch is a quaint small cafe right in the center of the town. Food is delicious with decent portion size and enough options. Service provided at the cafe is quick and ambience is relaxed. Must try - English breakfast

Delicious vegan brunch and great service. Highly recommend it!

Kitch is THE place to treat yourself to a fresh and vibrant brunch/lunch in Canterbury! It's my 3rd time there and I've never been disappointed. I love their vegan breakfast and especially their GF bread. I even asked the chef how he makes it 😅 Definitely worth a visit! Their cakes look yummy too, but we were both stuffed after our veggie and vegan breakfasts...

One of the best place in town food was absolutely delicious really enjoyed it very friendly staff! will be back soon definitely

Great latte, very friendly staff I will be going back definitely 👌

Visited for lunch today, the food was amazing & lovely staff too! Looking forward to visiting again soon!

Very cute place with a great atmosphere. Staff was amazing and the food delicious. They have some amazing vegetarian and vegan options. We had an amazing experience eating breakfast here.

I‘m very impressed by the veggie Breakfast and the coffee is amazing as well. The staff is super friendly. Overall a great place.

Great gluten free options for coeliacs. I recommend the breakfast pancake

Lovely place to eat real food. Fresh and delicious breakfast/brunchy meals, cakes and snacks and lovingly crafted coffee. We had a tasty breakfast here on a weekend visit to Canterbury. Welcoming and friendly staff. Cosy atmosphere.

Excellent service! Food was perfect. Maybe the best poached eggs I ever had (perfectly cooked). 👌

Nice place for breakfast and coffee. Good service.

Amazing and friendly staff with a great atmosphere when inside. I visited during a relaxed lockdown and had breakfast outside before, and now inside. The same problem still remains. Breakfast food items were cold when served? It’s lovely food, but would be so much better if it was hot when served.

Ate here on Sunday morning, 10/12 serve prompt, food outstanding and atmosphere great

A cutely decorated cafe, however the dishes were very underwhelming.

Can't wait to go back some time, the waitress was so wonderful with my grandchildren.xxx

Always good food and nice staff

Cafe muy malo, solo leche, casi sin café. Food poisoned. La comida, no ha provocado a todos descomposición (explosiva) a los 20 minutos de salir, así que supongo que no existieron cuidados higiénicos en elaboración de comida. ¡Fatal! Nos arruinó la mañana de paseo por Canterbury.

I’m going to give it five stars, but really it’s 4.5. My eggs Florentine was wonderful. But the cake was a little stale, and for the price I feel it should have been fresher. But it’s a wonderful place for breakfast and I recommend it.

Cute spot for brunch. Service was really the highlight here! Really friendly and welcoming team.

A win on all fronts; I had a marvellous experience! The staff was very kind, welcoming and attentive. It was a joy to watch them at work! And the food was delicious and simple, healthy and wholesome! Cute little cafe with a light interior gives it a charming atmosphere. Felt like I discovered a secret place!

A really welcoming and friendly cafe. The smoothies and breakfasts are really good. Lots of lovely cakes too.

Staff friendly and plenty of vegan and vegetarian options.

Food here is absolutely delicious with some of the best vegan/vegetarian and dairy-free options in Canterbury. So delicious you wouldn’t even know most of it is vegan/veggie! I recently tried the vegan chocolate orange cake which was one of the best I have ever eaten. Also a lovely spot to sit outside at the front on the high street, and you can sit out the front with your dog. Coffee is good too!

Amazing food and great hospitality.

We drove 1.5 hours just to do brunch @ Kitch. Worth every mouthful. The pancakes (fluffy and very moreish), the lattes (Mmmm), the breakfast bowls ( you must try this- the banana bread is freakin’ awesome) the smoothies and fresh juices… What’s not to like? Loads of seating out front, inside, out back and upstairs. We prefer upstairs near the kitchen - nothing quite like hearing a happy chef at work - makes it tasted even better. Wonder what excuse I can come up with so we can go next week?

Delicious brunch and deserts! Hungarian trifle was amazing!!

Had a delicious spicy chai and tumeric latte! Also had one of their bowls and aubergine dish! Both were tasty! Would definitely come back if I was to go back to Canterbury!

Had lunch today with friends. The vegetarian breakfast was gorgeous, one of the best I’ve had anywhere. The service was attentive but not rushed. Thoroughly recommend.

Lovely friendly local breakfast and lunch, will definitely come back!

Another delicious lunch at Kitchi Budapest. Thanks Chef Tomi 😋

For heaven's sake tell no one about this very unprepossessing looking caff. I have NEVER tasted sausages so GOOD in my life. The food on offer was limited in choice I suppose but I could have ate everything I had twice if not more, it was soooo tasty. And I am defo not veggie and they had lots of worthy looking stuff that I wouldn't touch with yours but what I DID touch was paradise on earth foodwise. Incroyable, mes vieux.

We hired Kitch to cater our Dad’s 70th for 70 people. As always, Monika and the Kitch team were fantastic. The service was second to none and the food was even better! All our guests loved the food and we will definitely continue to use Kitch for all our events!

A truly amazing cafe, with lovely staff who are so friendly. We both had the Kitch Club Sandwich and because my wife can't have pork (bacon) the swopped it for cheese. Excellent, perfectly cooked, and so flavoursome. The whole experience was superb 10/10.

A group of 12 booked for brunch - never been before and never been to Canterbury either. The food was absolutely amazing - I recommend the banana bread bowl!!! All the food came out near enough together. All drinks were hot and came out together. The service was amazing, nothing was too much! Would highly recommend going here, and would definitely return if I’m ever that way again! Thankyou :)

INCREDIBLE!!!! oh i loved it so much so yummy such great vegan options and amazing music it was fantastic it really did make my day♡♡ The food was oh so good and the atmosphere so cosy! I got the power bowl and they forgot my avocado but were so SO kind and brought me so much avocado it was delicious

Amazing vegan options. Highly recommended you come by with a big appetite 😂 lovely friendly staff too!
