Real locals pub. By which I mean that upon entering, my wife and I received baleful, slightly hostile stares from the regulars round the bar. The barman didn't look up for 5 minutes while he served another customer. I had thought that being in the heart of Kent, there would be a plentiful selection of local Kentish ales on tap. No. Just Doom Bar (Cornwall) and several international lagers. Not a good pub.

This pub nestles in the Kent countryside peaceful and remote but in reality less than 20 minutes from either Canterbury or Dover. Great staff with a warm welcome for old and new customers plus a selection of drinks and even live music in the beautiful secluded garden.

Popped in as my sister has moved here. As its only garden service I didnt see the inside but its location next to a small green and from the outside looks good. Good size garden and car park. Food was limited to a cornish pastie, cheese and biscuits etc. This came in a paper bag which I think is a great idea. I had a steak pastie which was tasty and had quality ingredients, home made. Staff very attentive and chatty. Ill be back this week.

The Bell Inn is a handy place to stop to warm up by the open fire, have a coffee or a beer and it's only a ten minute walk to the train station. Hopefully more alcohol free beer will be added soon!

Its on a farm that prepares its own ice creams , the quality and range of flavours of which are excellent . Other foods are available like sandwiches which are equally good .The location is restful as its in the middle of the country side which makes the experience more pleasant

We cannot recommend the Belle Amalfi too highly. We were staying in Sandwich for our wedding anniversary and the Belle Amalfi didn't disappoint. All the staff were very friendly with time to talk even though the restaurant was full. Even the owner stopped to talk. He is such a great character. We were both recommended the selection of chargrilled seafood which was delicious. The Creme Brulee was superb. The Bella Amalfi was exactly the Italian restaurant we'd hoped to find. Thank you to the owner and your great staff.

Noticed this bijou shop as we were attracted initially by the Groovy illuminated sign in the window advertising cloths and coffee/tea. What a surprise! We were greeted warmly by a young lady behind the counter. The main surprise was it was incredibly small, 2 individual chairs, a 2 seater retro cloth settee and an additional small seating area immediately under the counter in front of the display of cakes (not ideal) customers would literally be sitting virtually upon each other although we were the only customers in attendance at that moment in time. We had tea and 2 rather small cakes and were charged over £12! To summarise, whilst the young lady serving was friendly she fell short on what pricing of the cloths and various items for sale were if not tagged and also was rather naive in knowledge about the local town area. Overall the experience was different and the products for sale were interesting albeit scant we would not choose to return over other more spacious and better value venues locally.
