The food here is always good and reasonably priced. Expect queues during the weekend (especially when the weather is good) but we were happy to wait for a table.

Food was great! Speed was decent. Location was good. Service was decent. They had options for kids for food. The ambience was fancy modern layout for building and food presentation but a bit loud with the pumping music for families. A couple of the workers seemed unhappy to be there but our server did fine.

Recommended to us by a friend and so happy we visited. We all enjoyed our breakfast the waffles,pancakes and french toast are so good we didn’t want it to end. We cleared our plates the food was so delicious. They do great coffees too and we will definately revisit here more regularly. Staff were all so friendly and made our experience all the more enjoyable. Best place for Breakfast,Brunch or Lunch lots of different things on the menu that other places don’t have and at a reasonable prices.

This place was recommended to me by an acquaintance - and I am so glad they did. The food was divine. Best brunch ever. Had the scrambled tofu - and needed to pig out be adding lemon & paprika potatoes. Staff were friendly, service was prompt. Good range of hot drinks. And a vegan menu is also available. Definitely worth a visit.

This place is amazing!!! we went here for breakfast after head night. The staff are super friendly. The decor is beautifully clean and well appointed and had the most wonderful breakfast. I would absolutely recommend it if you are visiting Canterbury and wouldn’t hesitate to visit again.

Had the ‘Grill Up’ and it was wonderful. Served by friendly, highly efficient, young staff, who seat you, and serve you with great skill and attention. So why not 5 stars? Simple. It doesn’t come with black pudding as standard, and to get a triangular (yes really) not particularly thick slice, as an extra, costs £1.50. This took the edge of a great start to the day a little, and is clearly the worst kind of discrimination against me, and my fellow Northerners. Whilst tempted to sit outside, with a placard, singing ‘We Shall Overcome’, instead I’ll probably go back again, as soon as I can, and try the Rancher. Great place, great food, super staff. Go!!

You simply can't go wrong opting to go here for lunch or breakfast. It's so incredibly tasty! No mistake, I'm partial to a dirty fry-up with all your essentials at a greasy spoon, but this isn't that. This is quality food cooked beautifully. The menu isn't too excessive and they play to their strengths - get eggs! No matter what you opt for make sure it includes eggs. I've been here a number of times now and I'm a huge fan of the Refectory Grill-Up, which I strongly recommend. However. More recent visits I've been a sucker for The Rancher, which is poached eggs, sausage patty and holllandaise sauce is up there with my favourite breakfast in canterbury (only rivalled by the Eggs Chaucer at Tiny Tim's). On this visit me and partner both got it and with a side of paprika potatoes to share, which weren't spicy but had lots of flavour. The price was around £40 with a chai latte and cappuccino, which for what you get is good value for money. The restaurant can get very busy, so I encourage you to book in advance during key times. If you do find yourself waiting, it's worth it, and I've never had to wait more than 15 mins. Don't leave, be patient. The service is great and you will leave incredibly satisfied!

What a great find for breakfast/lunch. Menu was quite different to the run of the mill restaurants you find in Canterbury. Staff were very friendly and efficient. A lovely log fire was burning to warm us up. Loved the peacamole. Wish it was on my doorstep.

A bustly place with very professional staff and fun art on the walls. Most important, though, the food was excellent. There was nothing on the breakfast menu we didn't fancy, not least because there were so many imaginative and creative ideas. A great experience.

We had a very tasty late lunch/brunch at this establishment recently. Unfortunately, my wife wasn’t able to have a milkshake as the ‘milkshake machine’ was broken…didn’t know you needed one to make a milkshake… However, the Rancher (with a zing of chipotle) and the stack of Buttermilk Pancakes (sweet with the balance of salty crispy bacon) were both very nice washed down with ginger ale & lemony lemonade respectively. A good place to have good food.

Ordered 2 x Eggs Royale with extra spinach and 1 x Refectory Grilled Breakfast with one of their amazing hash browns as an extra. Totally scrumptious, exactly the right amount of food, homemade baked beans and everything. Really impressed. Highly recommend.

Loved this place! The service was impeccable. We had to wait about 10 minutes to be seated, but waitresses were keen to get us in. There is a wide range to choose from for breakfast (which is served all day), and a lot of combinations that I have not seen before. The waitresses were polite and friendly and really looked after us, despite it being a full restaurant. The food tasted amazing. I cannot wait to go back!

2 stars for the location and terrace. Lost one star for food, one star for price and one star for service. Overrated breakfast indeed. Expensive for the ridiculously small portions. The avo and smoked salmon toast is quite small. The merguez and egg dish has 3 tiny merguez, and 1/2 a piece of bread of the side, disappointing. The coffee is all right. The service is extremely slow. Bottom line don’t walk in based on their reputation. 4 years ago it was better. There are other places for breakfast in Canterbury.

Under the previous owners from Essex this pub was amazing after the revamp, the food and atmosphere was fantastic and they got better clientele in. I've been back since under new ownership and the place is disgusting and full of drinks and louts that have ruined what was a lovely pub. I wouldn't set foot inside here again as it's full of drug taking lager louts who will ruin the expensive revamped decor. When I visited for a drink there was lads waiting to get in the toilet to have a sniff! Avoid!!
