Food is average and pre prepared and heated in microwave , staff just grumpy and rude , awful. The worst bit, overcharged. Make sure you ask for itemised bill or breakdown as they like to just give you a total to pay with no detail. Make sure you check what they tell you the total is against what they put into the credit card machine , we were overcharged £5.70 once the confirmation from bank came through a few minutes after paying . Terrible service and dishonest on the bill

Well what can I say, this is probably the worst cafe I’ve ever been to in my 55 years. Should have read the reviews before going. I had the smoke salmon with scrambled egg on toast. Don’t know what the egg was, but I can honestly I can say it was not egg. The toast must have been waved at the toaster, was more like bread. My daughters had burger and chips, The burgers where very greasy. I can honestly say I will never go again

Filthy dirty place. We all know many cafes full up ketchup bottles with cheap ketchup, but haven't changed the actual bottles for many years. The ketchup and brown sauce were presented in filthy dirty bodies, bottles with peeling labels and scum all around. Beware. This place is cash only despite clearly advertising, they take cards in the window. Why does a busy cafe in this 21st century not want to take cards?

Some old bald man was very rude and just horrible! We walked out after sitting there for 20 minutes and daring to ask for at least a drink when people were coming in after us getting served. They had clearly missed us but too rude to apologise and serve us.

Having seen varying reviews, I took the plunge and went at tea time (rush hour) mid-week; and I was pleasantly suprised. There were two male staff on duty, very attentive, polite; and good at their jobs. I had the beef strogonoff that comes with rice and salad, it was well cooked, hot, well presented; and tasty. Pudding was bread and butter pudding with custard, and again, it was well cooked, hot, and tasty. 2 mugs of tea, plus main course and desert came to £20.20, I guess that's about average nowadays. The whole place, tables, seats, toilets, crockery, and cutlery etc were all very clean. I was the only person in for the whole time I was there, about 1 hour, so I cannot really comment on how well the staff cope/what the food is like when they're busy. The menu is a bit generic, not too exciting, bar what I've written earlier, and if your a vegan/ vegetarian your choices, I have to say are very limited; apart from the usual omlette etc! The 'chefs special' board, with a few food options listed; are on the walls and easy to read. There is a large wrap round conservatory there, and signs indicate that dogs are allowed, but only in the conservatory, which is sensbile I think. Would I recommend the place, yes. would I go again; yes.

Decent amount of parking and short queue. I ordered a coffee instead of a cappuccino and, within seconds a strong, instant coffee was pretty much slopped onto the counter! Not much of a bedside manner from my server but generally they looked friendly enough. The knick-knacks add character and the red/black decor is appropriate. The venue looked clean.

Good portions, good prices, I liked that they do two slices of toast one with baked beans one with scrambled egg. In other cafes it's usually two slices of toast with the same topping. The coffee was nice and hot, the service was really quick. Two vegetarian set cooked breakfast options and the veggie sausage was tasty.

Always had good food and served well but today was dreadful. We saw two men at a table with a dog on the bench furniture, then they put food on the table and allowed the DOG TO EAT OFF THE TABLE!! We complained to the waitress who shrugged her shoulders and said it’s ok as dogs are allowed in. Later, we saw the man feeding the dog using his own cutlery. YUCH!!! I complained again to who I guessed was the manager, and got the same reply that dogs are allowed in and that sort of thing is ok. I complained a third time when I paid the bill, and was just ignored and blanked out. I heard other customers complaining also but don’t know if they fared better than we did. We’ve been many times before, but definitely never again

I have seen this diner for years and allways fancied going in, so today i made the effort and im so glad i did.I usually stop at maidstone, folkestone or ashford or some other services that are on the way back from Dover or Eurotunnel, but they are just so busy. You wait for ages for food thats over priced and the people serving you really dont care about you or your food one bit.At Mickeys diner the minute you walk in your greeted by a charming young lady who is ready to take your order once you have sat down or at the bar for takeaway.If your lucky enough you may get to meet the legendary Mickey himself just as i did and what a character he is, such a lovely man.There is a lot of food to offer at this diner and its all freshly prepared. Whilst your wsiting you can admire the memorabilia all over the walls and hanging off the ceilings.There is plenty of seats for singles couples or families with children, its an ideal place to stop if your hungry and travelling that way. If your not passing then take a detour because Mickeys diner beats all the high priced junk food you get at the services hands down.I strongly recommend you visit this diner its convenient and fun and an experience you wont forget.I make a lot of journeys over the channel and back but i know where i will be stopping from now on !!!

The food was good, hot and plenty. However the owner bought a scratty little dog in and put it down on the bench seat next to me whilst I was eating to take a phone call!! There was also a strong aroma of bleach everytime the main door or toilet opened. Wont be going back. Wondering if the dog is allowed to roam around the kitchen and food prep area. Most probably is.

Visited here when travelling back home from a day visit to Maidstone.We saw this 'American diner' after a quick drive-by view when we were travelling to Maidstone and decided to visit it for lunch on the way back.As soon as we entered we realised that it was not so much an American diner and more of an old fashioned road side cafe. Cheap tables and chairs crammed together and a menu that was very truck stop.There were three of us and I had a cheeseburger and chips and the others were served fairly quickly. It soon became obvious that they had forgotten mine (my widfe and son had nearly finished theirs) and when i looked over to the kitchen area they started to look at the orders and then mine was quickly cooked. When it was delivered (without me saying a word) the cook said "we didn't forget you" which I took to mean yes we did.The food itself was very average with slightly soggy chips and cheap thin burgers with grated cheese on top.Overall a very under whelming experience and wished we had found somewhere else.

We stopped here (2 adults & 2 children) for lunch on a Saturday. It wasn't that busy & service was exceptionally quick. I wouldn't say that we received the warmest of welcomes & the staff though polite weren't overly friendly & there was a slight language barrier. I couldn't really fault the food, we had typical English breakfasts which were good & were served with decent beans (not nasty cheap ones) fried eggs were a little overcooked & with 2 kids meals of jackets & nuggets which the kids loved. I thought that for cafe/diner food it worked out a little expensive at over £40, I've eaten in similar places for less but all in all it was good food.

We only finished the chips and left the rest, We were charged nearly 25 pounds for the slop and all but the chips were left on the plate. As we paid I said to the the server “that was the worst meal I have ever had” he then smiled and said thanks very much.

Came today (4th may) with my dad for brekkie as it's one of his favourite places to eat breakfast or lunch before his bike rides with his friends. The place was absolutely packed out! Really busy no where to park, so need a bigger car park. But walked in and went to sit at an empty table only to be told nocant sit there sit in the corner, so had to squeeze past other eaters to get into the seat as the tables are quite close together. The staff after that seemed friendly enough, I asked for a redbull it didn't come in the can and didn't taste like real redbull either.. The menu has a little bit of everything on it, breakfast, sandwiches, burgers, baked potatoes which is nice as then it's not just fatty food.

We were told about this eatery by the proprietor of our B&B; who didn't happen to be doing B when we stayed. You head north from the M20 for a mile or two & then there's a filling-station on the left, & that's where Mickey's is, too. It seems to have started life as a Little Chef, but is now a sort of quasi-American diner, with English food. We got a decent breakfast, which was just what we wanted. The lady who served us was a little harrassed, but very pleasant. The price was OK, at £15 for the two of us, & we've been in both better & far worse places. Take it as you find it, we'd say.

Went in Sunday morning 8th Oct for a spot of brunch. The waitress asked us to grab a table and she'd be straight over. Yes there was only the two of us but as the restaurant was half empty we sat on a four seater so we could sit on a bench next to each other rather than on a tiny table opposite. When the waitress came over to take our order the little rude man (who I can only assume was the duty manager) instructed her to get us to move on to a smaller table. My girlfriend didn't mind but I'd never felt so embarrassed so asked her if we could go eat somewhere else, which we did do in a better ambience. Won't be going back.

We love this place and have been here loads of times. We visited yesterday lunchtime (Sunday) most recently - we already knew we wanted to try the giant Yorkshire pudding filled with mashed potato, veg and three different roast meats (beef, pork and turkey) with gravy. It didn't disappoint. This is a no frills diner and the food is always very good and lots of it - it's not expensive either, always very good value, I would thoroughly recommend it.

This diner is literally on our doorstep, and in the past few years we have enjoyed a lot of meals here, a quick lunch, or a treat for the kids. But so much has changed. It has been updated internally, and looks a lot more spacious, and welcoming, but that is where the praise ends. We were surprised at how quiet it was, only 5 tables occupied so we thought we would be in and out with no hold ups. Wrong. Took our order for drinks which arrived, then we had to sit and wait for the food order to be taken. Those before us had had no orders taken, so it was a complete farce as no one knew who to see to first. Then the couple next to us found hairs in his meal, whilst hers was cold and greasy. They left without paying. Our meal took ages to arrive and when it did it was ok. About 30 minutes wait for two burger meals and an omelette. Then the couple across from us returned one meal as the food was not what was ordered, and the partner ate his food and then told them that his order was incorrect too. What has happened here? Was always busy, always good service, and would have recommended to others. Only 3 staff, no system, complete dissorganised, and will not be returning.

Waiter had a fake Rolex, enjoyed picking and wiping his nose in front of customers. Had one eye looking at you, the other, for you. His customer service skills was appalling. The food was disgusting and had been under a heat bulb for way too long. His personal hygiene was atrocious, and I imagine broke many many regulations. The only good thing I can say about this dive, is when you leave, you never have to experience it again.AVOID AVOID AVOID

A group of 14 of us met for breakfast here one Saturday morning. It was busy so pleased that we had booked. I have passed this diner hundreds of times but never thought that it would be serving such good quality food. Our friends who regularly go to the diner recommended it.All 14 of us had different breakfast options with most of us having a variation on the full English breakfast - including a lovely, vegetarian full English. Everywhere in the diner is spotlessly clean and the service is very efficient and I love that it is family-run rather than a chain.We will definitely be going back!

We visited after the Kent Garden Show in Detling. The diner was quiet with only a couple of people in the conservatory. On entering one of the waitresses was feeding the two African grey parrots that are in the entrance, she greeted us as we went in. We found a table and had a look at the menu, I ordered a burger & chips, my dad had the shepherds pie. We had a little wait while the food was prepared but drinks were bought out promptly. The burger was nice and freshly cooked exactly as I ordered it, the shepherds pie was also really nice. The price is reasonable for a good meal and the staff we encountered were friendly.

I made the mistake of stopping here one sunday lunchtime, the owner was arguing with a customer who had returned his plate of food. That was enough for me

Great Service and Food, even when it gets busy. Excellent for a quick bite to eat, or a Family Meal. Sunday Lunch is good too.

I was looking for a simple place to have a simple meal with family.I have passed Mickeys a thousand times on the way UP Bluebell Hill, Chatham, but what a little gem this turned out to be!Lets lok at the positives; The food is all home cooked, no frills but hot, hearty and loads of it! The place is spotlessly clean and although the decor is eclectic at best I loved looking at all the different "stuff" on the walls.The negatives; service is functional and sporadic and you don't get addressed as "guys". All staff wear logoed poloshirts and were clean and tidy.Back to positives, this restaurant offers such a wide arrangement of dishes, I think everyone should be catered for breakfasts are hearty, in fact not one meal we saw was rubbish or sparing on content.The beer is cold, the tea is strong, Sundays is a carvery as well, and the puddings, good old fashioned!!But don't take it from me, if you are in rhe area do your self and your wallet a favour and visit. We will certainly be back!

Always good service and good food. Even the beef burger for the dog! We call in every week and have never had a bad meal.

My partner had a Monroe breakfast (scrambled egg on toast, bacon, sausage and baked beans) while I had beans on toast. All the ingredients were good quality and the service was friendly and efficient.

We have been here 3 or 4 times because everyone loves a diner so we come back once we've forgotten the previous visit! Not again. The owner and his staff are surly and inattentive and have the attitude they're doing you a favour.Food is ok but is overpriced but they lost me at the door with their lack of anything approaching friendliness or civility. Bunch of money grabbing clowns. Don't line their pockets.
