The Coachworks, the Yard and the Hothouse in Ashford

Networking business women event

Consistently great food, events and atmosphere. A hidden gem in Ashford and keeps on getting better and better.

wonderful experience, nice place and the music was incredible, Dj Manny really rocked the set 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼😍

Yesterday I had a lot of fun at Coachworks, a beautiful place, a really cool vibe, and the music, one of the best sets, DJ Manny played very well, one track better than the other, making the afternoon even more enjoyable 😍 I'm already looking forward to the next one👏👏✨

Great place in Ashford, nice venue clean and tidy super friendly staff … there is always something going on. Sound system is great.

Such a nice outside area to enjoy with your friends and have something to eat and drink without the hustle and bustle of the town centre

Always an a great time. Caters for everything. Awesome atmosphere with a great ale and food. Great space to be in

Had a fun couple of hours here when we attended the ABBA & Grease bottomless brunch tribute on Saturday. Not the most glamorous setting but it served a purpose. Basically you pay £35 each for 2 hours drinking with lunch & a DJ included. Of the 64 revellers there were only 2 men. Fancy dress is encouraged & most people made the effort to dress up. When you are let in you grab a table that has a bottle of Prosecco, a jug of Woo woo & a jug of Pimms on it. When empty take the jugs or bottle to the bar & they replace the empties for you to carry on drinking. Bottles of beer are available but you have to pay if you want shots. Lunch is a choice of a burger, pizza or wrap. Be warned there can be a long wait for food that can eat into your drinking time. Good fun though. Really enjoyed it. Got very loud towards the end. Would I go again? Of course.

Love the atmosphere here day and night. Came here for a Mamma Mia vs Grease bottomless brunch and it was amazing. Lots of different events here, food spots and good times. Highly recommend visiting.

Well-intentioned but typically brain-dead beer 'festival' with beer in plastic cups, exorbitant street food that no-one's eating , and about 30 people inhabiting a windy shed. With a band trying hard ;if they'd been any good you'd feel sorry for them. So yeah, hotwired for failure in all respects. 500 yards away, is a jam packed Spoons with about 300 people in it. **** Proving my point -management replies to review in 30 minutes? One of the upsides of only having twenty customers I guess. Just wish I coulda got a table in Spoons. Oh well🙃

Love, love, love this place!!! Perfect in the nice weather, with an eclectic range of sumptuous food to suit all palettes and dietary requirements, refreshing drinks for all ages, outside and inside seating and welcoming staff! What more could you want? Close to local amenities? TICK! Close to public transport links? TICK! Live music during the week? TICK TICK! Don't waste your hard earned cash anywhere else, (especially in this glorious weather!)

Lovely bar and beautiful pellet stove upstairs 😍 🔥🔥🔥

Thank you for making my birthday celebration perfect. Organising a party from New Zealand was a really easy experience thanks to Lucy. All staff were incredibly helpful and friendly, including the lovely security lady. Great range of beers etc. Venue was perfect. A very welcoming and accommodating venue, highly recommend.

Fancy Dress 60th party Great value..fab staff especially the security Lady who ordered my partners boys back to thier hotel to get changed into fancy dress lol and they did ! Great Street food until 9.30pm Fabulous choice for a get together.

Visited coachwork for a party beginning of December. Nice space, but very very very cold due to inadequate heating. Need to take a coat.

Hidden away near Ashford International station, good selection of street food vendors (Nepalese, Pizza, Greek, burgers etc) and a couple of bars, great when the sun is out, occasionally has live music

Me and a colleague came to the coachworks for a networking event and really enjoyed this place.

Loved it here. Great drinks from tmi, amazing pizza and asian food. Perfect end to a beautiful sunny day. Will be back!

I’m so happy we have a wonderful place like this in Ashford! Lovely company, delicious street food, nice drinks. It was an extraordinary surprise to find Lucy there, one of the nicest people I’ve met/work for. I can’t wait to go back again… and again…and…. Thank you!!💕💕💕

This was a a lovely place to visit and didn’t really know it existed until I came along for a very special event. There was food and drinks on offer, and above and special event as mentioned. Was part of the Ashford art celebration, well done to the artists who where involved as well as the organisers, this was truly amazing. I got the experience an African dance taster session if you can call it that. The venue if designed in a simple and effective way

Perfect place to meet and relax

Visited the bar inside the Coachworks, fab little place, several bottles and cans to buy and take away. Also some beer and ciders on tap which you can drink on site. Friendly and knowledgeable bar man.

Inside down the stairs... find The Made In n.. thank me later

Good vibes and lovely atmosphere. Good selection of drinks. Really nice and friendly staff. Nice food and nibbles...

The staff told us, a group of three come after work, to be quiet whilst sat in the bar area because a comedian had started a show. Told us we couldn’t talk whilst it was on. Bizarre

Great live music, lovely Pinot Grigio, delicious pizza and tiramisu. Great afternoon in the sun. Will definitely return!

Great local community area, kid friendly Great food

A sorely needed space for live music in Ashford. Plenty of room and decent sound. Excellent food stalls outside and the bar has decent prices on the mezzanine.

Not a bad live music venue in Ashford , some of bars have limited range of stock, not cheepest but not bad

Great place and noodle bar is amazing

Great street food vendors and lots of interesting beers

Here for a wedding reception, amazing staff, great drinks, ping pong/table tennis! The food vans smell amazing, and the GF and DF pizza was fantastic.

This is such a great place. Been a few times for quieter daytime pints and noisier gigs in the evenings - the service is always on point and the selection of food & drink is great. Ashford is so lucky to have this place, and while it’s physically near the high street it is culturally on a different level. Use it or lose it!

Great outdoor venue, chilled atmosphere. Great cocktails. Food caters for allergies.

Lovely place to hold events for children and adults

Went today for the bottomless brunch with 3 friends. It was excellent Quinn looked after us well. Drinks were truly limitless. Food was fabulous from all the food stalls. We mixed and matched. Thoroughly recommend, great atmosphere.

Nice place good vibe food nice no frills you clear your own tables of plastic glasses and food containers

Great place for a bite to eat and few beers

Nice place to get together with a few different food and drink outlets. Good vibe

Only had a coffee there but the staff are really friendly and helpful.

Just had a drink here but its very cool and nice to have a drink somewhere a bit different for a change!

Great location, great idea, great food. For some strange reason though the entertainment and music seems to lean towards a older demographic. It's saturday evening and they are playing Tina Turner simply the best and bad 80s disco music. I've seen 2 groups of young people walk in and immediately out in the half hour I've been sat here lol.

Relaxed outside bar and food area. Plenty of choice to eat and drink and a suntrap on a sunny day. Usually has a dj playing in the background and plenty of space to meet up with others.

Central London prices… £8 for a single vodka lemonade!!! Way too expensive for the middle of Kent.

Great place, good selections of beers but could do with heating for the winter

A very cool place with different foods and drinks and some good live bands

pulled pork salad and chips good

Great place with a great selection of foods and drink, great atmosphere and lovely people that work there. Check it out for breakfast, brunch, lunch, dinner or drinks - places like this need to be supported

Lovely place to meet up with friends for a relaxed social. With 3 food vendors and a coffee shop there is no problem finding food options for everyone in your group. There's a bar with wines, spirits, beers, ciders and a small range on tap. For IPA and Bitter you just pop into the bottle shop down the steps inside the building to the left of the courtyard. We ate from the Pizzeria and TexMex units, all the food was delicious, hot and served in a good time frame (this was a Friday afternoon, I imagine that might be a longer wait on a busy Friday or Saturday evening). There's lots of space between the trestle tables, and lots of standing room too. So nice I'm going back in a day or two :)

Love it!! Great space, lovely traders - the beer is fantastic as is the food on offer!!

Amazing place gorgeous food will be back again

Average play area ok but not great

One of the more fun spots to go to for food and drink in Ashford

Great place to go with friends and family and the dog! Dog friendly inside and out! They have the best food (several independent choices) and bottle shop in Kent plus a lovely atmosphere with plants, lights, music and friendly people. A must visit!

Lovely atmosphere, delicious food and good beers. Had a great evening.

A London-style outdoor food park that serves a variety of street foods and beers. Perfect on a warm sunny afternoon.

Great place, great food. Highly recommended.

Really missing a trick with the food. I was charged £30 for two "sandwiches". The food came out in small burger buns and the medium sides of potato salad and coleslaw were at least double the size of the main. Really odd pricing and side portion sizes. Easy fix guys, you could be great!

Great little find and will be awesome in the summer. Definitely somewhere to go that is not a pub and hope it will stay open. It new and very welcome addition to the social scene of Ashford which has lost a few traditional pubs recently. Get out and check it out

Great food and fast service. All staff were polite and made sure our time there was well above satisfactory

Lovely time had great food and drinks.

So being accused of something that I didn't do that resulted in me getting kicked out of coach-work and poor security

Absolutely loved it! Great addition to Ashford! Pizza was great, as was the pulled pork and brisket place. Great vibes! Will definitely go back

Great take away food served here to eat in outdoor & indoor seated area plus bar from the Food Hub. They include Italian & American Food. They also have special events with some pop-up outlets on some weekends. I went to a great Vegan one on 26.9.20 & think they may do vegan ones once a month. Most of the fixed outlets (some from converted shipping containers) are open Thursday - Sunday from 10am or 12pm (depending on the day) & closing between 10pm & 12am (although this was before the new Covid-19 restrictions so worth a check... A great, vibrant place to go chill & enjoy good food

Great vegan market and the bare bazaar is based here. They offer great.coworlkng spaces. It's really nice and modern and very central

Goodnight overall! Would probably come back again, all thanks to Liz for making the night all smooth for me and my mates. 10/10!!

Great food, shame it was a reduced menu during the week as it wasn't advertised

Great atmosphere to meet friends, Boutilliers is great for beer

My husband is obsessed with their food and really loves it. Great outdoor venue as well as having a lovely i door space. This has a great community feel to it. I really enjoy all the stores there's pizza, burgers, a bar, coffee and cafe shop and several other spaces. New to the area and enjoying getting to know the place. I would absolutely recommend a visit here.

Good local place with ace Street food vendors. Could do with more variety of beer other than ipa cans.

Great atmosphere with friendly staff. Good social distancing with table layout etc. Lovely food. Doesn't feel like you're in Ashford!

Fantastic atmosphere and great food and beer

Still growing but a cool place to visit

Beer and food.... what more is there to ask. Street Kings Smoke Shack and Boutilliers for beer, my life is made. Very disappointed that the owners can't keep to the opening times - turned up this week to find an event on so not open at the normal time.

Street food market and bottle shop. Reminiscent of the box park in Camden, just on a smaller scale. A short walk from Ashford train station.

Lovely place, great art installation, great food and drink. Really enjoyed our afternoon in the sun with a few drinks.

Good food, well priced. And it doesn't feel like you are in Ashford!

Fantastic setup, amazing food, exceptional beer selection and sweet vibes to keep you going through the evening.

Seen better quality and prices at festivals and that saying something lol

Had some beautiful italian food by il pakko whilst here. A lovely authentic italian, family run mobile pasta bar. Fresh and well cooked pasta. Will definitely return!

Excellent venue and an amazing choice of food. Fun for all.

It is a great coworking area and an ideal place where to.go after work or Saturday night, drinking from the Hot House Bar and eat some food. Highly recommended
