The Restaurant at London Beach Hotel in Ashford

Group of 10 for carvery. Excellent attentive service but we were only table for a while. Table booked at 1230, surprised it wasn't busier and we had to wait while carvery was laid out. We didn't opt for starters. We all had carvery for main course. Very big plates on offer. Meats were below average. Pork, lamb and beef and both lamb and beef were very pink. The joints generally needed longer but what we did eat was nice. Good selection of veg, I think 6 including cauliflower cheese. Potatoes and Yorkshire and gravy were excellent. Could happily have had a plate of that! For those of us with a smaller appetite would have liked to see a smaller plate option. £18 for main course carvery and around £8 for dessert seems on the dear side. Especially as I don't gave a big appetite. Desserts were nicely presented and even ice cream scoops were in a glass dish and appeared generous. A good place for a get together with family following remembrance service.
