Le Hatch in Dover

£100 parking fine for parking for 1 h and 12 mins. The car park was empty. Impossible to have a meal with a young family in that time

A very disappointing experience. The fish batter was greasy and not very crisp. The chips were not the best, thin and, again, greasy; the portion was too big for a normal appetite. I suspect the cooking oil was not as hot as it should have been as it was a quiet time, late afternoon. The price was top of the range at £10.30 for a medium cod and (too many) chips so I would have expected better. They could quite easily reduce the portion size and take the cost under £10. The staff were friendly and welcoming however, so an extra point for that.

Ordered through Uber eats and food arrived freezing cold and stale, called up restaurant and they refused to send any hot food out and told me it wasn’t their fault and was very unhelpful and rude. Won’t be ordering again save your money and go somewhere else

With big chains nearby it is easy to overlook this little place, but please don’t! It has a lovely atmosphere and a good selection of lunchtime foods and plenty of different drinks. Every one of our party was able to try a different flavour milkshake!
