If I could give 6 stars or more I would. We found the Marquis of Granby whilst looking for somewhere pet friendly to stay before travelling back to Europe via the channel tunnel. We arrived late on Thursday evening only to discover I'd booked the wrong date - the staff were incredibly accommodating in finding us a room and changing the booking. When we left I forgot my charger and Silva went out of his way to contact me & let me know, and offer to post the charger to me. Incredible service, and on top of that the food was outstanding, they have a wonderful selection of local wines and the place is truly dog friendly - they were even able to join us for breakfast.

Lovely Sunday lunch, with a wide choice of options on the menu. Everything was beautifully presented and perfectly cooked. The roast had a good selection of vegetables. The service was friendly and efficient, thank you Sam. Only observation, the dessert described as Clementine Mousse is mostly chocolate. If you are looking for an excellent meal we can recommend the Marquis of Grandby.

Our anniversary meal not great I'm sorry to say. We have eaten here several times and always found the quality of food and service to be of a high standard. The last two visits things seem to be changing. On the13th Feb we had a meal food was very good usual except my wife seem to wait for her main coarse quite I while after mine had been served. Also I was two thirds the way through eating my main coarse before my wine turned up. We returned with our daughter and son in law on our anniversary 27th Feb. This time service very good as usual but the food not up to scratch. My daughter had mac and cheese this being ok but not great. I had featherblade of beef. Unfortunately this was mainly gristle and inedible, also the gravy that came with it was very thick and gloopy. My desert of apple crumble was very sharp and the creme anglise quite thin. The beef was removed from the bill after asking. I hope this is not the start of the slippery slope that so many restaurants fall into. I must say that The Marquis of Granby has been brilliant in the past few years. I hope this was just a bad night and we will be going back.

We had a lovely stay and meal for my birthday. The food was fantastic and the service was spot on! Our room was lovely and had everything we needed. The bed was comfortable too. My only gripe is with the voucher system. Having to tell the waitress we have our food included in the stay, after receiving the bill. I could see we were not the only ones with this issue. A note on the system would surely suffice. Thank you for a lovely evening and stay.

Popped in here for lunch, 2 bottles of wine and £170. The toast was burnt and everything was salted despite saying when we booked we were salt intolerant and again when we ordered ! The Barnsley chop was salted so we left that as was the top of the terrine, as as a incredibly good gesture the reduced the price of the chop by 25%, so that was a fiver off the bill that would have been £175. I did eat some of the chop myself but it wasn't mine to eat, so about half was eaten, but everything that went with it including the broccoli (£4/5) was wasted and we had a disjoined lunch, what a waste of time. I couldn't be bothered to take issue about not being refunded the chop. I eat out a lot and wouldn't recommend this restaurant as the chef is off his game. I am sure this place gets plenty of good reviews, if it were me I'd get all my friends to leave good reviews and the staffs girlfriends for a little bonus. I've read sunday lunch with tough roast beef..honestly and over cooked fillet steak..come on, go back and get another star in McD's

Only dined so unable to comment on the rooms. Full disclosure that when the booking was made, we were advised it was for two-hours only. Greeted well by a friendly young waitress when we arrived at 12.30pm. As we were early, we ordered drinks at the bar. Unfortunately the Harveys was off – hadn’t been tapped was the excuse given. There was no other choice of real ale. We all were seated ready to order by our 1pm slot. Bottle of wine ordered. Food - delicious. Starters - three scotch eggs which were pronounced very good, and one whipped feta. Latter was vegan, which I'm not, so wrong choice on my part as it missed some of the depth of flavour. But that's just personal. We ordered a second bottle of wine to go with our main course, which we had to go and chase up as it was forgotten. Quite a wait between these two courses, but at the time that was ok. We then had a Sunday roast each - three pork and one beef. I'm particular about my beef and I couldn't fault it. Perfectly pink. Vegetables delicious. Finally - we were looking forward to a desert and coffee, so when the waiter/manager came to our table we were ready to order. However, he told us quite bluntly that the table was now needed and we needed to leave straight away. We pointed out that the service had been quite slow, which was blamed on someone being ill - was possibly a stroke? Terrible if so. There was no suggestion that we could order coffees to have in the bar/snug area – where there was room, just that we needed to leave. And sadly we now were disinclined to spend any further money. A waitress then came through with the bill, which was just over £300. In conclusion. Great food, but having been told we needed to leave swiftly afterwards we certainly won't return and certainly won't recommend it. Perhaps a little reminder during the meal that we were approaching our two-hour time slot would have prevented any bad feeling.

A very cozy pub. We stayed there for one night on our return journey from England to Germany. The room was comfortably furnished. The bed was very comfortable. We slept very well. The bathroom was super chic. The food in the pub was very tasty and filling. The staff was extremely nice and helpful. Because we had to check out very early, we asked for a doggy bag. This consisted of a croissant, jam, juice and a green banana. Compared to the breakfast offerings on the menu, it's rather disappointing.

We were disappointed with our meal tonight. A real shame, as we do like to support local restaurants. No-one came to ask us whether everything was ok. Maybe, our waitress needed more training? The fillet steak was over cooked, and my main wasn’t very hot. When commenting on our meal, we just got an apology, a shrug of the shoulders, and that was it. A good wine menu, though. Not sure we will be back.

We booked online on their website a table for Easter Monday for dinner. We got a reservation confirmation by e-mail by their booking engine. When we arrived, we were surprised that the parking lot was empty. Inside we learned: it was closed due to the public holiday and they did not honor our reservation since the kitchen was closed. We had the best memories in 2015. So we were looking forward to dining here again. At least they helped to find a restaurant which was open for guests. They promised to give us a free meal, but since we are in Dover maybe every 3-5 years only, I do not expect them that they will keep their promise if we show up in a couple of years. We also tried to book a room, but e-mails were not attended.

I wanted to leave a review because the team here were exceptionally helpful and considerate. I can't eat dairy, but I had booked the Christmas lunch with my friends and planned just to take some lactase tablets with my food, as I'd rather not be a pain. However, I got there early and ordered a coffee at the bar with soya milk. The waitress asked about my lunch choices, and I explained I'd planned on just having lactase. She offered me a non dairy main alternative, and the chef also made my pudding without dairy.

Visited with friends for Sunday lunch having booked for 12:30. Arrived a bit early and waited for friends in the lounge and were offered drinks but decided to wait until we were seated. When we went to our table rather surprised to see we were the only people in the restaurant although it did fill up later, The Sunday lunch menu offer three or four choices, including vegetarian, and is not just the traditional roast. I had soused and torched mackerel to start which was excellent. followed by a fillet of hake on a bed of crushed new potatoes and curried cauliflower which was really tasty and perfectly cooked. All the others did go for the roast beef and it was absolutely superb, with all the traditional trimmings. Two of us managed to cram a dessert in and coffee to follow. All in all with excellent quality and choice of food and a bill of £30 each tis represents very good value. Service was friendly and professional, so probably the best offer for Sunday lunch in the Folkestone/Dover area.

We called to see if they would honour as wanted to celebrate our anniversary with lunch but we’re told “Definitely No!”. Apparently it is under new management and would not be honoured.

As for portion sizes, as I read other reviews I completely disagree, my partner and I aren’t the skinniest of people nor the largest so when the food came out, in my head I thought (oh I could eat more than that) as you do, but the sizes were perfect, I couldn’t eat more! The appearance was as good as the taste and it did indeed fill me up. Not enough to try the cheesecake of course ;) even that was out of this world. Service was perfect, price was acceptable, food was out of this world. All staff deserve a pat on the back!

Five stars or one star? I hate negative reviews and never give them but this one has me in a quandary. I have dined at this restaurant on numerous occasions and friends have stayed here a couple of times. Without exception we have always been happy. On this occasion the meal and service were excellent as always. My problem, if it is one in other people's eyes, came when I was presented with the bill. Without exception when paying by credit card I always enquire if I put the gratuity on the cc do the actual staff receive the money. invariably the answer is yes they do but not on this occasion. I was told that the staff would receive nothing if I paid this way. I then proceeded to provide the gratuity in cash but I was very annoyed by this. I thought this practice had been outlawed in the UK over the last couple of years and restaurants could not now do this. For a restaurant of this standing to indulge in this practice is not acceptable and I have little doubt some customers have been misled into thinking the staff have received a 10% gratuity when in fact it has gone to the management. Totally unacceptable in my eyes. I have not yet made up my mind whether I will return but if I do I will certainly be checking on their gratuity policy and I suggest others do the same.

Just had afternoon tea there – absolutely delicious with extra tea at no cost. The ladies are all very friendly. Should definitely be on your to do list.

A Sunday lunch to celebrate a family birthday just lacked the atmosphere and attention to detail that we would expect from The Marquis and also which did not match the highly professional manner in which our booking was taken. The food was good and nicely presented but the service was ..well adequate at best . The two waitresses were friendly enough and did their best but there did not seem to be anyone managing the restaurant and it all felt very ‘unloved’. We had to ask for accompanying sauces rather than being offered them as food delivered and then having to go out into reception to ask to have your table cleared after a very very long wait just is not the done thing. The bar/lounge was cold and soulless, no fire lit on a bitterly cold winters day, and just none of the higher end service and finishing touches we have experienced here before and we were so under whelmed to the extent that we would now not be in any hurry to go back. We are lucky enough to have so many really good places to eat in the vicinity that there is no need to re visit places that you could not honestly say met expectations. A real shame . After our visit we raised some specific issues with the management, it will be very interesting to see if we get any kind of response.

Had 3 course lunch. Everything was tasty, nicely presented, service was excellent. If you worry about your waist line then this place may not be for you as all 3 courses were rich, perhaps too rich ! 4 stars due to cleanliness of the place - my wine glass had fingerprint marks, one of the mirrors at the reception was filthy with bits of food (?!) stuck to it, one of the toilets had tissues all over the floor.

We upgraded to have a good room which turned out to be 'just ok'. Slightly tacky decor & furnishings. Room smelt of cigarette smoke so had to leave doors onto mini balcony open, not a good start! Plus side was the taster menu food in the restaurant was excellent & staff were pleasant.

Just back from NYE and husbands 70th at the marquis and what a truly wonderful night it was. From the moment we got there everything was perfect the room, the meal, especially the beef wellington, to the entertainment. Beds very comfortable and quiet. If anyone looking for this New Year’s Eve celebration then look no further than the marquis!

Meal just about warm and certainly not served on heated plates. Food not cooked to order. Potatoes grey and hard. Never again. Only good part was the happy pleasant service.

We had the tasting menu. A very unbalanced menu and we both actually felt ill eating it. Shame as it was a special treat. All too rich and unbalanced in terms of fine dining. In essence, if you are looking for fine dining, .... do not eat the tasting menu!

Was bought here for my birthday and overall was really impressed. On a groupon deal with 4 course taster and overnight stay. Room was lovely, no conditioner and facilities first class including Nespresso coffee and water and biscuits. Underfloor heating a bonus. Bed a little soft for us but comfy. Paid for deluxe upgrade. Food superb but thought cheese sharing platter a little stingy. Staff brilliant.

Had a great meal here as part of our stay in the hotel. Food was incredible, such fresh flavours and beautifully presented. All of the team we came across were professional and helpful in assisting with wine choices.

Enjoyed a four course meal here. Although I wasn’t keen on the soup the rest of the food was delicious. The soufflé dessert was one of the best I have tasted. Delicious.

Wonderful food and faultless service. Being a pub can be noisy, but that is to be expected as people just enjoying themselves

Hotel rooms were adequate, nice roll top bath, but no hot water!! Breakfast staff were surly and rude. Basically poor, I would not recommend this hotel to a friend.

Never go in cafe again . Why fo these places discriminate against dogs . I felt hurt and upset . My dog loves visiting cafes and was so excited only to be told I could go in even though we were going to sit outside . Rude and obnoxious lady . Don't deserve one star at all
