Octagon Bar & Lounge in Dover

I'm a local and I have now had breakfast, lunch, dinner and cocktails at the village kitchen. Quality food and excellent service and it's always been friendly. I'm very pleased to have thus business in our village.

We recently spent a few nights at the adjacent campsite and went to The Grapevine for breakfast one morning. It was an excellent breakfast - possibly a little pricey but you don’t mind when you get a generous and tasty meal. Cosy little cafe which was very much appreciated on a rainy, windy morning and it also doubled up as a shop with essential items for campers.

What an absolute gem of a place. Ice cream and milk shakes superb. They also offer a very reasonable range of hot and tasty food. There is NO COMPETITION for hot food, at this price anywhere else in Sandwich.

Very sad to say that our experience of papa’s tonight was appalling. My 84 year old mother went in to order, she was snapped at because she couldn’t hear, she was tutted and commented at in a rude way because she adjusted her face covering, we were made to wait in the smelly alley way for the food , and when I asked if there were any napkins I was told “no” No explanation just a curt “no” Won’t be going back there again there is no excuse for rudeness !

Community outreach centre of the Beacon Church - free Sunday dinner for the needy and many helpful services available. For some reason Google seems to think that it is a commercial restaurant 🙄
