Highly Recommend!Had an absolutely delicious afternoon tea today with my husband and his mum. Tearoom is adorable with a really nice view of the church, almost feels like you are no longer in the town! Staff are super friendly! so helpful and eager to please, fantastic with children... the gent serving us had a good chat with our 6 month old! All the staff are so down to earth and genuine, asking about the meals not as a protocol but with genuine interest at how their cooking was.The afternoon tea itself was brilliant, it was my husband and mother in laws first and they were thoroughly impressed with the choice of sandwiches they could have which were all delicious (my husband isn't a fan of egg mayo or coronation chicken but you have changed his mind and that isn't easy to do!) Scones were lovely and fresh with PLENTY of butter and cream, again pleasantly surprised by choice of jams as well.As for the cake, we didn't have enough room to eat it but I have it waiting for me later I'm sure it tastes as good as it looks!Speaking as someone who works in a tearoom and makes afternoon teas I can honestly say I would love to be a part of your team because you were all brilliant. You're afternoon tea also out performs ours (wont say where because I don't want to be fired lol)Well done to you all and we will all definitely be back because those curries smelt amazing! We will also be spreading the word, expect to see this review on every platform I can find!

Although I live in Ashford I’m ashamed to say this was my first visit. My friend and I walked along the river and popped in for tea and cake. It was a lovely day so we sat outside overlooking the church. The cake was delicious and so nice to have tea in bone China cups. The people sitting next to us had the full afternoon tea and to say we were envious is an understatement! The staff are really friendly and we’re looking forward to our next walk and full afternoon tea although we may have to walk a little further to walk it off!

We picked up a takeaway afternoon tea from Trevor. We requested a takeaway afternoon tea due to one person being in a wheelchair for walking distances so couldn’t make it into town. It was amazing. Soft white buttered bread with a selection of fillings of your choice (we opted for egg mayo, ham+mustard, chicken mayo and cheese and pickle). Wasn’t too keen on the chicken mayo but liked the other 3. The victoria sponge cake was also nice but the best part of the afternoon tea was definitely the scones!! I don’t think I’ve ever had such a tasty scone.

We live locally and visited Church View Tea Rooms for the first time, after a recommendation from a family member who had afternoon tea there.The greeting we received upon arrival was very friendly and nothing seemed too much trouble.There was a good selection of food available and the sandwiches we chose were very tasty, with fresh bread and quality fillings. Tea was plentiful with 3 cups each from one pot and extra hot water offered. Great atmosphere and never felt rushed at any point.We will definitely be returning and would thoroughly recommend to anybody looking for quality food and great service.

Used to always pop in here when it was chilli bite. It was always delicious food and generous portions. Today, sadly, it was a real let down. The sandwiches were on bog standard white ‘plastic’ bread. The salad garnish was really pathetic - they shouldn’t have bothered. £12 for two sandwiches, pot of tea and a Diet Coke. The young lady who served us was very friendly, smiley and chatty. Sadly won’t revisit and will have now find another place to find in Ashford for a decent sandwich. On the plus side, the coleslaw is still the best!!

A family group of 4 booked for afternoon tea. There was copious amounts of tea and a good variety of freshly prepared sandwiches. There's something tasty about sandwiches without crusts! The scones were huge and fresh from the oven....I think the tastiest I've ever eaten!! Choice of jams and plenty of clotted cream. A decent slice of cake of which we took some home as we were to full up!! Would definitely return.

Received a groupon for chilli bite for Mother’s Day. Reserved a table for lunchtime. Turned up, table not reserved, tables hadn’t been cleared away from previous customers. The order was taken, but took ages to arrive (possibly as scones were fresh).We were advised there was only carrot cake available on the pre-booked afternoon tea! The sandwiches were nice, scones (plain) were great with lashings of clotted cream but the cake was dry with no cream cheese frosting or any frosting at all!Disappointed but the staff were nice. Unfortunately can’t recommend and will not return.

In the past two weeks I have had two full afternoon teas! (As the first one was so delicious!) The cakes are so yum, the Victoria sponge are absolutely huge wedges and beautiful jam and cream and so soft. The scones....I usually wouldn't choose to eat a scone but I'm so glad I did, they were sublime, the sandwiches also very nice! All in all a win win. The staff are very pleasant, the owner came and found us and had a chat which was nice. Glad to hear this place is getting busier and busier as it is tucked away and I hadn't been there all the time I have lived in Ashford, definitely worth a visit.

This is one of the best places to eat in Ashford. Not only is the food top quality, but also good value and freshly prepared by extremely polite, curteous and friendly staff. It is a charming place to have breakfast, lunch or afternoon tea. Everyone I know has nothing but praise for this excellent establishment and I’ve never had a poor experience on one of my many visits. I cannot understand how anyone can describe the Chilli Bite as ‘poor’! I certainly don’t agree with the single negative review recently left by another customer - is this the sane Chilli Bite that me and my friends visit regularly where we are only ever treated with the greatest respect and top customer service? I think the other positive reviews speak for themselves and potential customers are not put off by one negative review. This is definitely one of the finest eateries in Ashford! Excellent, freshly prepared food, good value for money, wonderfully friendly staff and fantastic customer service.

My partner and I had a Groupon voucher for afternoon tea at the Chilli Bite, and we loved it. We’ve had plenty of afternoon teas elsewhere but the Chilli Bite hands down was the best. Generous, fresh sandwiches and cakes with fresh warm scones. All made fresh. The groupon voucher deal was £15 for 2 people, but even full price (I think it’s around £25 for two people normally) the value for money is honestly brilliant. Friendly and attentive staff too, happy to accommodate to dietary preferences, we highly recommend!!

I've visited the chilli bite twice, and ordered a jacket potato each time. The younger staff didn't use gloves! I was totally appalled! How can a restaurant not know to use gloves? Unless they want to get reported. The second time I went, the lady wore gloves which I was happy about until she went up the stairs holding on to the railing with them on. What's the point of wearing them?? They should only be worn to touch food! I'm really appalled with this place. Also, prices are too much for what you get. Not going here again!

Often used The Chilli Bite a while back when Robert and Tania Lewin had place and the food was excellent, but whatever has happened in recent times, its a wonder he (the owner) has any custom at all. As I say, my wife and I always compliment the ladies there on the food and service, but often avoid the place when the old man is there. He is rude, scruffy and arrogant. Have heard him speaking badly to his staff. Never any stock. My friends at the hairdresser stopped going there after the mans appearance and in particular his nails were seen to be unappetising. Someone confirmed that the place is being taken over by someone who knows what they are doing pretty soon. Can't come soon enough as the man seemingly loses clientele built up from the Lewin's days.

Fantastic! Looking for lunch on a wet miserable day, stumbled upon The Chilli Bite which at first we thought was a take-away ... Very friendly warm welcome from the staff, extensive and interesting menu ... What to choose? Jacket potato with prawns and an amazing side salad was delicious (generous portion too), and a New York Deli baguette was equally delicious and satisfying. Will definitely come again and recommend to anyone.

We didn't know the shopping area and were looking for somewhere to have a late lunch snack. So glad we came across The Chilli Bite. All the staff were very pleasant and there was a good choice of the type of food we wanted. I ordered my all-time favourite lunch - a tuna jacket potato which included a salad garnish and it was one of the best I've tasted! All too often these days too much mayonnaise is mixed with the tuna but this was just perfect. The salad, too, was an interesting mixture of textures, including home-made coleslaw, sweetcorn, red peppers and an onion relish, which made a change from just lettuce and cucumber. Yummy!

I have heard some real good things about this Deli/Café, but I have two issues with it – Firstly the staff filling sandwiches with their bare hands and not using food handling gloves, this is usually a basic food hygiene out and out No No and therefore I was quite surprised to notice a blonde lady supervising a trainee in this procedure, which I believed to be a senior member of staff. Secondly at £6 a sandwich I would expect to be offered some kind of artisan bread choice not basic cheap brown or white breads and baguettes, god knows what their mark-up must be.

Me and. My family have been going to the chilli bite every Saturday for 6 years!! The foodies delicious and everyone who works there is very friendly they know are usuals and it is delicious every single time, all of their food Is amazing from the English or South African breakfasts to the hotdogs to the delicious New York deli baguette. Prices for the quality of the food is excellent!! I recommend this cafe to everyone and they all leave with happy faces. Overall the chilli bite is the best ever place to go.

What a delightful place to eat and fantastic service. Superb food and service, one of many independent traders in Ashford that is worthy of support. Marc and his team including Marc junior, Claire and Linda really create a great bite to eat. Nothing is every too much trouble, the cakes are fantastic too! Support the Chilli Bite in Ashford Kent, you wont be disappointed!

A great place to eat, my hat goes off to Marc and his team at the Chilli Bite, Ashford, Kent for beautifully prepared fresh, tasty and wholesome food. His friendly team compliment the food by the excellent service.

The food here is wonderful. So much choice you would not get anywhere else and although little on the pricy side, you definitely get what you pay for. My gripe with them come with the service if you choose to sit at the back room. Staff often struggle to smile while handing you a £6 sandwich and I was there only yesterday (09/02/13) where one couple came in, waited 15 minutes and left as no one bothered to take their order. In conclusion, if your feeling a little rich, go there and you wont be disappointed yet may think twice before sitting inside for lunch.

It says alot about this place that if anyone in our office (just outside of ashford) ever mentions that they are going to town they are swamped with orders from people for Chillibite, food is brilliant fillings well filling and everything fresh, generally have to wait a bit for your order but that is just because they are so busy.

I visited this cafe last week and was met by fantastic and friendly service. It had a real home like feel to the cafe.Being a fussy eater wasn't a problem they made a sandwich to order without any trouble and it was beautiful, you could tell the quality and taste was well above average.This is certainly a cafe I would recommend to everybody.

Popped in for a rest during the Xmas shopping. Really welcoming & friendly staff, clean, great menu, reasonable prices.... And the foods itself was really good. I had a Thai Green curry, which was fresh and full of flavour. I'll definitely be returning to try some other items from the menu.

I have been coming to the Chilli bite for all my time since moving to Ashford 7 years ago. For someone who loves spicy food, this place is great! Never fails to impress with excellent service from a blonde haired lady who i believe makes THE BEST SAUSAGE ROLLS EVER! Very impressed with the new look of the restaurant and would recomment anyone who likes good home cooked food and their sandwiches filled to the brimThankyou once again!

I love this place. You gotta try the New York Deli sandwich or baguette... But make sure you're hungry first! One of the best sandwich place in Ashford, if not the best.

I've eaten at the Chilli Bite twice now and the ambience of the place is lovely - its in one of the oldest buildings in Ashford so has a lovely old style feel with a view of the church. The staff are friendly. The food is varied and sandwich fillings are generous and tasty. Dont be thrown by the name - the Chilli Bite is named after the relish you can add to add some spice to your food and there are loads of choices that suit the normal palette. Its not often you find somewhere to sit in the warmth and dry esp with this summer and enjoy some good food - the Chilli Bite provides all this.

I can't recommend the food there enough, something for everyone. If you like boerewors, then give the South Aftican breakfast a go, or grab a boerewors baguette. Portion sizes are generous and the staff are friendly.

I've been lucky enough to enjoy meals in the restaurant, takeaway sandwiches and delicious buffet food - all of which has been of an excellent standard! Every time I've been pleasantly surprised by just how much you get for your money! I've never come away hungry and the range that is offered is simply superb. Well worth a visit for anyone who is hungry and looking for somewhere that will tempt your tastebuds and satisfy your hunger.

I had the pleasure of experiencing a tremendous buffet supplied by the Chilli Bite for a birthday celebration.The sandwiches were stuffed to the top with delicious fillings and the assorted bites were full of flavour.There was so much food and so much choice that no one was disappointed and I for one will be recommending them to everyone.

An unusual blend in the best of British, Indian, New York and even South African influences.My usual staple at the chilli bite has been the awesome New York (skyscrapper tall) deli style sandwiches but on my last visit I opted for the equally as good Boerewors Special.A South African style sausage in a baguette with cheddar cheese, caramalised onions, chutney and a layer of their own chili bite spread. Incredible flavours and a little spicey kick on the way down. Very reasonably priced. The serivce was a little slow to be honest but as there was only one person serving and making the sandwiches, which she managed to do so with a smile it wasnt a problem. #Make sure you also grab one of there own made sausage rolls. You wont be disappointed.

We like this place, it is not grand, but the meat in the curries is of really good quality; no fat, no gristle, just solid meat... and the sauces are just right, fresh and gloopy - very satisfying on a cold day. Heartily recommended.

Dropped by on the 23rd December and had a lovely Beef Madras. If I'd have been served this standard of food in an indian restaurant I'd have been well impressed. In fact, it was actually a lot better than the food I have tasted in ALL the indian restaurants in Ashford.This establishment has recently changed ownership and is much improved with more choice and better quality of ingredients. Service was friendly and quick and served with a smile. I can't wait to return.I really do recommend you try the Chilli Bite.

Sorry it has taken so long to review the best roast dinner in Biddenden! Such a friendly warm place for a family meal. Don't go there expecting glitz and glamour, this is a proper countryside restaurant, you will not be disappointed!

The Kings Head Restaurantlocation-iconChurch StreetBritish

Our first visit in a while - pre-covid this place was absolutely sensational. Not sure if ownership or management has changed - all a bit flappy now though. The space is nice, and if the food can be moved back up a couple of notches The Kings Head will still be worth a visit. Work to do right now however, noticeably not as good as it has been in the past.
