The Heritage Garden Kitchen in Ashford

I came for a Sunday breakfast with my wife and child last month and had a very poor meal unfortunately. I had the breakfast sandwich, the bacon was tough no hint of being crisp with a layer of unrendered almost raw fat and mostly all barely warm. My kids had the pancakes and were expecting something light and fluffy but they resembled a stodgey scone with no real taste. My wife had a cold poached egg. I dislike leaving a negative review but we were all looking forward to breakfast and at £70 ish not cheap and not worth it. One thing - I had a nice coffee and good service - just very poor food.

Very disappointing Sunday lunch. We had been several times before for lunch, coffee and cakes and had always been very impressed. We ate it because we were really hungry. But the beef was chewy, the roast potatoes felt hard and microwaved. No Yorkshire puddings and the restaurant was so freezing we all had to keep our coats on. We had planned on staying for a pudding but changed our mind. We left feeling very under whelmed.

A beautiful place to return to after a morning mushroom foraging course. Delicious 3 course lunch using the wild mushrooms collected. Lovely farm shop and apothecary too.

I booked myself, partner and son onto a foraging workshop followed by a 3 course meal here. I have to say we had the best day. I absolutely love the quirky feel of this country Instagram gem! It’s different and feels so warm and welcoming especially on a cold rainy day! The food was stunning. The staff and owners extremely friendly and made us feel so welcome. Family friendly with toys and colouring for my little boy. There’s a cute little apothecary on the side. And a shop selling local produce. I can’t wait to return in the spring and sit outside in the beautiful garden.

We held our wedding at Bloomsburys at Biddenden (which I've left a glowing review for) in June 2021 just before all the restrictions were lifted. We were absolutely delighted when Amy & Daniel came on board, we felt cared for, looked after in this incredibly stressful time, and that they were as excited as we were for this wedding to finally happen! We had gone through a few wedding planners during re-booking our wedding at Bloomsburys and can safely say - Amy is the best, she knows what she's doing! The guys provided a beautiful dinner for us all the night before, accommodating numerous dietary requirements and different arrival times and it was absolutely incredible. The canapes, wine and main dinner on the day were all using beautiful local produce (which we loved), Kent wine and locally sourced beer, and again, delicious food for different allergies - which we were so happy to present to our guests. I can't recommend or speak highly enough about the Heritage Garden team (and the Bloomsbury's team) and look forward to coming back in the future for anniversary celebrations!
