Makcaris in Swale

Went here with my husband and my dad, for the Sunday carvery, we arrived a bit early, but they was fine with that and was shown our table, then asked if we wanted drinks, which we did. Short time later we was asked what meats we would like, the hubby and me chose pork and beef, my dad chose gammon and beef. Now what I really liked about this carvery was, they got your meat ready on the plates then came and got you to go and get the rest of your food, this was done a table at a time, so no standing in a queue waving your plate around. Plenty of both meats was put on our plates, there was plenty of choice vegetable wise, ie cauliflower cheese, swede, brussel sprouts, carrots, cabbage, roast potatoes, Yorkshire puds, stuffing, and best crunchy pork crackling ever!! I ate everything on my plate, really really enjoyed my dinner. Pudding My hubby not a pudding person and my dad was too full up , I chose spotted dick, but I was full up as well so asked if I could take mine home. Which was not a problem, was nice and hot and put in a container for me. All in all, a lovely little pub, in a rural area, staff where lovely, polite and efficient. If you like great homemade food definitely worth a visit. Will definitely be going back again.

Had an order tonight it was not as nice as it normally is the doner meat was very greasy and the chips were hard as if they had been reheated it's a shame

Always a pleasure to visit this venue, portions too large though

The beano cafe is the best place on sheppey to get a exceptional filling meal. With a brilliant menu especially thier speciality thier range of all day breakfasts are a must. The staff are competent committed and friendly. Eat here and you won't be disappointed! Can't fault it.

Decided to try the abbey hotel as it was part of the eat out scheme, staff was absolutely amazing especially ajay and accommodating our family of 10 was no problem. Very spacious and very easy to maintain social distancing. Will definitely be returning in the future.
