Recommend to pre-book a table. It's very popular for Sunday Roast. Large car park. Nice countryside location. Traditional English pub. Very friendly and helpful staff. Arrange a table at short notice. Had a very nice Traditional Sunday Roast. Well cooked and nicely presented. Would definitely return when we are next in the area. 😊

I booked this pub/restaurant on the hoof as I was attending a conference with colleagues from Germany, Holland, Poland & France in Sittingbourne and wanted my team mates to experience a typical country pub. The Sun Inn did not disappoint. The staff were incredible, patient and extremely courteous. Nothing was too much trouble. The food was fresh, very tasty and typically English, my colleagues left in a very good mood. Karen, Kim and the team were fantastic, I will return!!!

Managed to get a table last minute on a Sunday and had the lovely kim looking after us, very polite and friendly, nothing was too much and probably one of the best roast dinners in Sittingbourne! If you're hungry and fancy a big roast dinner ask for all meats, it does not disappoint! :)

We had a wonderful meal, great food, lovely staff, good atmosphere. The waitress made a mistake with our order, but dealt with it superbly. The loss of one star is actually for only having one ale on tap. This is a fairly busy pub, one ale is a fairly poor show.

Lovely place for food and the service is amazing. I phoned in advance to see if they could accommodate me and my wife for a meal for our wedding anniversary and kirsty answered the phone and was polite and friendly and couldn't be more helpful and welcoming.... kirsty greeted us when we arrived and again couldn't be more welcoming and helpful... the service was amazing as was the food...

Located in the village if Bredgar near Sittingbourne,Kent. The pub is primarily a restaurant inside with lots muted seating for those who just want a drink. There have a lot of outdoor seating with some in a courtyard and the rest on the grass. There is a good sized free car park. Inside the pub has a good feeling and is in good order with nice tables and chairs. I've eaten there a couple of times and the food is good. Prices are moderate but there are some cheaper items like jacket potatoes which are nice and filling. It would make a good place to go for a special occasion as it is a cut above the average pub. It's in a nice location at the edge of the village.

We've been a few times but our visit last Saturday lunch time didn't go too well. First, despite having booked a week ahead we were seated outside the restaurant in the bar area. Food was good as usual, generous portions, tasty and hot, but the service was appalling where we repeatedly had to search for staff to place drinks orders and then had to wait 15m for a coffee. Shame, as it's usually better than this.

The food was ok but, for the price, we were expecting something much better. You could tell that very little was cooked fresh, probably all cooked from frozen - even the chicken pieces for the salad weren’t fresh (quite hard and dry). The staff were friendly and pleasant enough, although a bit forgetful as we had to go to the bar to ask what we were waiting for. It was only when I got home that I realised I had been overcharged on drinks - this was my fault as I should have checked the bill and queried it at the time.

We have ate and visited here a few times and each time the staff have excelled in ruining the experience. My advice if you’re not a local save the journey. We have regularly been overlooked, had people served who were waiting behind us at the bar, had others who are clearly locals been served first, offered tables when we were told there were none and generally received a better service. It’s such a shame.

Arrived on time for a 1.00pm reservation, 3 adults, 2 young children. Friendly greeting but were told there would be a half hour wait for food. The food arrived at 2.00pm by which time the children had understandably become very restless. The food was fine except my wife's portion of sea bass was very small. There was no apology for the delay in delivery of our meals.

I’ve eaten at The Sun Inn on a couple of occasions and the food has always been excellent. Mother’s Day however was a different story. £39.95 for three courses!! The potatoes were hard and not roasted properly. The cauliflower cheese was but on top and watery liquid in the bottom of the dish. The gravy was like water. The custard was cold. The service was excellent and that’s the only reason we didn’t complain.

This would be a great pub if it weren't for the owners' dismal taste in music. It's like they're trying to drive customers away - each time I've visited I've had to leave early as I've been unable to bare the interminable dirge blaring out of their pub-wide sound system. To make it even worse, they insist on pumping this aural assault out of speakers in the garden too, ruining anyone's chance to have a relaxing pint in the sun. Perhaps it's a member of staff that thinks the general public enjoy hearing 'Sam Smith Live' on repeat and at ear-bleedingly loud volume; if it is, I think the proprietors should seriously consider having them forcefully removed and serving free drinks for a month to make amends with the customers whose ears they have so heinously violated.

We’ve been to The Sun Inn a few times and very much enjoy the ambiance, the friendly staff and delicious food but sadly our visit last night was very disappointing. We were celebrating our wedding anniversary with our family. We were the first in the restaurant area when ordering our food. The starter took 20mins to arrive which was very tasty. The restaurant area was now very busy. Our food then took an hour/1hr 20mins to arrive and other people had received their food before us. We complained with regard to length of time which we were told they would chase up. No apology for the delay. After our first drink we had to go to the bar! This lady was attentive and brought our drinks to the table. When our food eventually arrived, we still had to wait a further 15mins for the last meal to arrive at our table! The meals we had were delicious but I can’t say it was worth waiting for because of such a delay in receiving it! Sadly in ruined our evening! We won’t be going back. We don’t feel the staff dealt with the problem correctly. When we left my husband said we were very disappointed for which a member of staff replied saying it wasn’t her fault!

Booked a 7 pm table. Arrived and were shown straight to our table in the restaurant. The drinks order was taken immediately and arrived in good time. we ordered the sea bass and the pie of the day, Steak and ale. The food took a while, but they were busy, so there was nothing to moan about there. when it arrived it looked and smelt amazing. My wife took two bites of the sea bass and said it was beautiful, in fact I think it is the best bass I have ever tasted. I had the pie with veg and mash, the pie was full of large chunks of meat and the gravy was full of flavour. By the time we were finished, we had just enough room for an Eton mess and some ice cream. The staff were polite and attentive, in fact, the whole experience was the perfect way to celebrate my wife's birthday. Thank you.

If I could have given less than one star I would. Utter waste of money. Booked 2 weeks in advance for my dads birthday. Ordered & were then told that half the food on the menu wasn’t available including ALL the specials still being displayed on the specials board (and given the place was empty I doubt they’d had a sudden rush of customers). Serving staff got the food wrong, threw cutlery down on the table in a pile for us to lay our own places, spilled the drinks on the table & didn’t mop up & chatted with their friends at the bar whilst we were waiting to pay. A total lack of customer service and a waste of £200
