The Tiger Inn in Shepway

Wonderful meal for my birthday. Food was excellent and staff were very friendly. Was busy for a Monday night, but still staff were excellent under pressure

A wonderful experience, from the waiting service, to the excellent Sunday lunch The roast beef was served rare which was perfect, plus best puddings

What a lovely pub. Visited for dinner while on holiday in Kent. Really good attentive staff, delicious food (I’d recommend the ribs) and a relaxed atmosphere.

Oh wow! gorgeous food, lovely service and beautiful setting. We came for Sunday roast and were really impressed. Locally sourced meat - the waiter was knowledgeable when we asked about their suppliers. I had the pork belly and my partner had the chicken. We loved the way they served the cabbage and the cauliflower cheese was delicious. The pork and chicken were beautifully cooked. Very generous portions - I couldn’t eat lol my roast potatoes. We had the pannacotta for dessert. One of the best I’ve had

Another excellent evening’s dining . Staff attentive, knowledgeable and friendly. Food delicious and beautifully presented. Lovely warm welcoming atmosphere - a lively hub-hub and thank goodness no annoying unnecessary piped music.

My daughter took us out for my 60th Birthday on Sunday for lunch. We all had the chicken and pork roast’s which were delicious. We had desserts and because it was my birthday I had a special plate presented to me which was a nice touch. The staff were very attentive and the waitress we had was bubbly and friendly. Well worth a visit.

We had a lovely lunch today at the Tiger. The mussels were gorgeous and the liquor delicious. My partner had the pork bites which he loved. The dessert was also gorgeous and really well presented . I had the cherry cheesecake and cherry ice cream and could have eaten it again in Thea’s so delicious. My partner doesn’t usually have a dessert but he has the pancetta and thought it was delicious. I tried their Kentish kiss cider that I hadn’t seen before, also lovely and the waitress Sophie was friendly polite and really worth her weight in gold We shall definitely go there again and recommend to friends and family Thank you

Our wonderful local has been going a few years now since the new owners took over. So often quality suffers after the initial high of getting going. Not at The Tiger. An off-cuff Sunday lunch for the two of us today was just spectacular; service, food, atmosphere just great. Keep going Hugh, Tiegan and team! 👏

Recently re-opened after a major refit. We arrived to an almost full venue, creating a buzzing, welcoming atmosphere. We were greeted on arrival, despite the staff being ultra-busy, and shown to our table.Staff were attentive and our order was taken fairly quickly.The food (bread, oils and olives to start, fish n chips and pulled duck salad mains) was served quickly, so no hanging around waiting for ages (brilliant)!Good choice of beers, wines & spirits to accompany the food.Atmosphere was buzzing all evening - tremendous experience!Dickie the host is the perfect person for this venue; convivial, charming, engaging - brilliant!Only down-side is the limited parking, but the place itself, the staff and the food are amazing and well worth putting up with the parking!Back (very) soon…!

This place has been totally refurbished and looks lovely. The food is great and prices bit high but worth it. Unfortunately the barman has very little in the way of people skills and is somewhat rude and unhelpful by his lack of communication. He appeared to be ignoring us and was unhelpful. Other than that the pub is great.

We visited from Queensland, Australia and were really impressed with the very friendly staff. The food was excellent & good value for £ or $. Will definately visit again on our next trip.

Celebrated an anniversary as a couple here. Food was fantastic, service was attentive and friendly and the place is cosy. Will be back soon!

Had a lovely meal here last week. My husband and I were both very impressed, vast improvements since a couple of years ago; delicious menu and food and excellent service. Only reason for the 4* is that there isn't much parking but there's not too much that can be done about that. All in all, we very much enjoyed ourselves!

We ate here one lunch time , overall looked very nice , friendly staff , nice lay out . Smelt a bit funny but think that might be the hops hanging up . Me and my husband shared the baked Camembert ( as it said a whole one ) they gave us extra bread which was nice , it was lovely ! . Then my husband had the belly pork looked amazing big potion too ! He couldn’t eat it all . I had the fish n chips omg the dish was huge and so many said home made chips but they weren’t couldn’t eat them all fish was nice but didn’t know where to start as it was plonked on top of all these chips got a side plate and put the peas on there , was lovely but disappointed at the home made not home made chips but other then this was nice , couldn’t fit a pudding in but the person opposite us had cheese cake n it was like HUGE ! .

We seems to come here every few years when we are staying nearby. It is a wonderful, dog friendly, country pub, tucked away in a quiet valley. The food was good rather than excellent. My wife enjoyed her waffle desert but I felt my cheesecake felt the same as I could get in a chain pub just about anywhere. I expect better when I am paying more than average. However all in all a pleasant pub with good food and beer.

It was the first time my partner and I had dined here and everything was excellent. Lovely greeting on the windiest day of the year and we were offered drinks at the bar prior to dinner so there's no rush to get to the table.That means you're not going to be rushed through your meal for another booking. There's a choice of three real ales and the wine list is extensive enough to include English wine. We both opted for the mixed meat roast and boy what a serving! Four different meats and a lovely seperate dish of mixed vegetables to share. Sort of glad I didnt order a starter because I would never have eaten as much of my main meal as I did. Desserts looked good but couldn't fit one of those in either. We'll definitely be back as The Tiger Inn has been put firmly at the top of our best Sunday lunch list.

We went for a family today as my sister was visiting.It was a bit of a last minute booking as we were struggling to find a nice country pub that catered for vegans but then I remembered the Tiger Inn was always very good although a few years since my last visit. I checked their website and the menu had dishes marked as vegan friendly - awesome but will have a table - luckily yes.On arrival we were given a warm welcome and given a choice of tables.The service was friendly and informative but not rushed.We ordered a local bitter and a decent Chablis before then ordering our food.Three of us had starters and all were good. Again good service but not rushed so after finishing our starters and a short break the mains arrived - sea bass, seafood platter, belly pork and vegetable pie - all delicious and good sizes portions.Unfortunately we were too full to fit in a desert!Well done and thank you to all the team there - you're doing a stellar job.Will certainly be back again.

Lovely country inn, very welcoming, Lovely staff and wonderful food. 3 of our party were vegetarian and there were 2 vege choices of Sunday lunch to cater for their needs. Booking for Sunday lunch is essential- was busy.

Good service food good staff great very clean would go again everything great plenty of food the only thing was no crayfish but plenty of prawns kids menu big enough for a adult I would give this meal 100 per cent

Went here on a Friday evening for an end of the week night out with friends. We ate from the Christmas menu and were not disappointed. All the courses were well presented and tasty. The prawn starter that one of us had was amazing and the Turkey dinner that three of us had was hot and really lovely. No complaints at all about the food or the service. Staff were welcoming and very helpful. The port that was recommended with the cheese and biscuits finished the meal off a treat. Will definitely be returning.

Supported this place many times & always had good food... But yesterdays christmas lunch with my Dad was awful!Asked for Crayfish cocktail..Got rubbery Prawn cocktail floating in sauce on a manky bit of lettuce served in a desert bowl2 roast turkey main courses were not much better than a school lunch! Yorkshires were dry & like cardboard.. Roasts were dry & over cooked.. Turkey tasteless.. Dad had scallops which the presentation was not great.. looked like Scallop Soup! Dad said chips were awful again dry some not cooked through.What i dont understand is that we were there by 1230 midday so surely our roast turkeys would have been freshly out of the oven not been left under a heat warmer as ours had clearly been!One postive note Staff always friendly & attentive.. Message to cook...dont give up the day job!!

There was 12 of us in total and we had already pre ordered our meals a few days prior.

Arrivé ici par hasard..tres bon déjeuné du dimanche. Personnel sympa servi rapidement repas super copieux cadre vraiment mignon et sympa..le serveur avait vecu en France et etait vraiment sympa..unebelle decouverte au milieu de nul part..mais tres belle découverte..on reviendra

Fantastic food and friendly service. Duck orange pate, two roasts, and a crumble, all excellent. A lovely stop in the middle of a long walk

We are here last night for the first time...and it won't be the last.

Our party of 4 arrived on a wet November Thursday night, we received a very warm welcome from the staff and were seated near a lovely coal fire.

Very close to where we were staying so just had to try it , especially reading all the reviews in the book in the cottage.

I visited here recently with family. Booking was easy & requests for our individual seating needs accommodated which made the whole visit relaxed & easier for us all. Staff were friendly & patient which goes a long way. At no point were we rushed which meant we were able to eat & spend time talking together which doesnt always happen & so so important in our world.

I had lunch here with friends, and admittedly there were a lot of us! This is a very picturesque setting and beautifully furnished.

Love this place and the food is wonderful. Had pork belly which is divine and chicken pie and everything was delicious but the service needs a shake up.

Our son took us for a lovely meal at the tiger inn, we all had mussels to share as a starter and it was so good....always a must at the tiger, my husband and son both had the porterhouse steak which was cooked to perfection, I had the fillet which sadly was overcooked and a bit tough, the lovely Mille couldn't have been any kinder about the situation (even though the kitchen tried to blame her which was very unfair) what a wonderful waitress, she said that she Hope's this had not left a bad taste and hoped that the this would not put us off from coming back, which because of how lovely and professional she was will definitely not be the case, if only all waitresses would be as wonderful as Mille....we will be back very soon. Thank you

We visited here for a birthday and had good expectations. However, would not return.

Last night my partner treated me to a meal at the Tiger, on Thursdays they do candlelit dinners. I’ve been wanting to go for a while and it did not disappoint. The menu was Asian themed, I thoroughly enjoyed the tasting platter, the crispy chilli beef was delicious. Dare I say better than from the Chinese! The pub was beautifully set up and created a lovely romantic atmosphere, I definitely will be trying to get my partner to bring me again!

Unfortunately I did not have a good experience with the Tiger Inn, I would never go there again and certainly DO NOT recommend it! The waitress was lovely but kept hiding in the kitchen chatting to the chef and she forgot to bring our drink!

I don’t normally tend to use trip advisor but what I witnessed on Friday afternoon was shocking. My partner and I had just come in for a quick drink to hear an argument happening in the bar by what seemed a rather frustrated customer about a comment made to one of the young ladies working in the bar. The gentleman stood on the bar seemed to be rather arrogant and up himself, refusing to apologise. About 30 minutes later, a young girl comes out the door absolutely distraught! The pub itself is a gorgeous place and the food is exceptional. However, if this is how staff are treated here, I will seriously contemplate coming back.

It had dropped off the radar after a couple of mediocre meals, even dropped the birthday bike ride and moved to another venue, but a chance lunch has changed all that. The food the service, all back on top, we had a great meal and will be returning in future

My hubby and I decided to visit the Tiger Inn (a lovely village local) for Sunday Lunch after walking the dog across the North Downs. Unfortunately it didn't live up to it's reputation. The staff were friendly enough but the food and the service were sadly lacking especially as it didn't appear to be that busy. We waited quite a while for our food so expected it to be freshly cooked however when it arrived my hubby was so disappointed with his Lamb Roast. The meat (had dried out) and potatoes (if you could call them potatoes and not rocks, hubby nearly broke a tooth on one of them which meant the rest got left on the plate) turned up first with a 10 min wait for veg!! When the veg arrived it was mushy and tepid, had seen better days and had obviously been standing for a while before being brought to the table. Following our meal, we ordered coffee, hubby went to the bar to order and also mentioned the problem with the roasties and the veg which had been left on his plate, he was met with a non-committal shrug of the shoulders and a conciliatory "I'm sorry about that sir". We waited 15 mins for coffee, then went and checked where it was... it arrived 5 mins later, luke warm!!! On a happier note, I ordered a meat platter that didn't need cooking so when it arrived it was fine. It's such a shame, when I read reviews I try to look at it from both the side of the customer and the establishment and I'll make a judgement decision before deciding to go or not (we all know that some bad reviews are over-inflated for dramatic effect). Unfortunately, we decided to ignore the reviews and go the Tiger Inn, which turned our to be the wrong decision.

We came for a get together yesterday after another restaurant had cancelled on us so came here after hearing really good reviews. Disappointed to say I dont share the same views. Only after many of us ordered the pork belly did the waitress forget to tell us that it had changed with the menu and came with kale. She couldn't tell us really what was in it. We ordered some more bread with the camembert which came after we had finished our starters. The special was much to creamy for many to eat I'm sure that's personal taste however one steak was not nearly as nice as the other even though both cooked rare. Had to wait a long time for the sauce to come out with the steak and other simple sauces such as ketchup. Side of chips was forgotten which we then had to wait again a long time for (granted these were taken off the bill) but dinner was nearly over by the time they came out. The burgers were very lovely however no salad in the burger not asked if wanted salad or pickles just assumed salad which looked like it had better days no sauce in the burger literally just a plain cheese burger and chips but as stayed as above the burger meat itself was lovely however the only main that got compliments. The chicken pate tasted more of tuna and most people agreed couldn't taste any chorizo in. The waitress kept admitting she was very tired and keeps forgetting things not very professional I must add! Overall had high hopes for this place but unfortunately would probably not return due to many mistakes and the food I would say not above average. Shame really

The last time we visited this country pub/restaurant was before we had children, some fourteen years ago.

Great country rural pub, decent range of drinks, very good bright cheerful young barman and lovely beer garden.

We ate here early evening and it was warm enough to sit outside in the pretty courtyard. I had the seafood platter, which was delicious and varied, and my husband had haddock and chips. Both meals were really nicely presented and freshly cooked - lovely light batter. The children’s menu had a good selection of ‘proper’ food - my son had the haddock and chips, which was just a smaller version of my husbands - nice to see properly home-cooked kids meals rather than frozen things! The menu is very reasonably priced for the quality and service was excellent. We really enjoyed our meal and will return .

Went here for the second time and ordered garlic chicken with cous cous and sweet chilli sauce on this occasion. It was amazing, so tasty. My date had sea bass and insists this is the best place to come for it. Staff are amazing, so helpful and friendly. My new favourite place

We had a very pleasant evening here. We went to try out the food was not disappointed. It was excellent. Very helpful staff . Very clean . Lovely atmosphere. Will definitely go back again but will book first as the restaurant was fully booked so will ate in the bar area which was ok but I prefer to eat in restaurant .

Very disappointed as went for my birthday lunch and asked before booking if they could cater for gluten free and was assured they could. However when we got there the staff had no idea what gluten free was and there was no gf bread which the menu stated was ALWAYS available!! Chef couldn't even be bothered to come and talk to us to reassure us which made me feel he was also unsure of allergies and dietary restrictions? Wouldn't recommend if you have specific diet needs!

We went here last night without a reservation, however, the friendly bartender was able to accommodate us in the restaurant, after a short wait in the bar. We had delicious sea bass and a ribeye steak which were both cooked perfectly, the staff were very attentive and smiley and all in all a lovely dinner.

Food was lovely, nice looking place inside and out, service was average...seemed to wait ages for the food.

I came in on Thursday with my family, we came in for a late lunch. The pub is such a lovely building, as soon as we came through the door we got a beaming smile from the waitress who then sat us down at our table, which was laid very lovely. The young waitress told us about what was on today and the specials. Once we settled my son in law decided he wanted to go to the bar to see what he would like to drink. A few minutes later he came back very infuriated and explained to us that he went to the bar and the ‘manager’ was standing there just staring Out the door, he didn’t even acknowledge my son in law was standing there to ask about the drinks, so we waited for the young lady to come back. A few moments later she came back to the table and we explained to her what had happened and she apologised on his behalf and took our food and drink order. Our food came within 15 minutes and we was very impressed by the presentation. The young waitress kept checking to see if we was alright and if we would like anymore drinks or a jug of water for the table, once she came back with the jug of water we asked if she was alone and she said it was just her and the manager behind the bar and we asked her name and I belive it was Deana? The poor young lady was running around catering to other guests aswell as keeping us happy while the ‘manager’ Was just standing behind the bar waving his arms around when he spoke to customers at the bar. Once we finished our food she came within a few minutes to take our plates and once again the manager was standing behind the bar chatting while she was running around alone. I’m feel terrible for the young lady as she has been working very hard and once she walked behind the bar he seemed to give her a bollocking for a glass? (All I could hear) we then got our bill, wished her good luck and Thankyou for ge service and left. The experience was great the management was awful and I won’t be returning is this continues.

Was undecided on where to go for our food, so we thought we’d swing by the Tiger Inn last minute and check it out for ourselves as we’d heard nothing but good things about the food and people up there, it did not disappoint!

I came to the tiger inn for a lovely roast dinner, they never fail to amaze me, the food the staff just excellent. Very friendly, my dog was welcomed and given a bone and a bowl of water. We was allowed to sit outside for our lovely meal and they still had a table for us just incase the weather turned. I will be the new regular to the pub, you will be seeing a lot of me. Thank you.

We stopped here on it off chance that they had a free table. It can be hard finding places that cater for a vegan and a allow a dog. Not only did they do both but they were very welcoming. Explaining the vegan options and providing a biscuit and bowl of fresh water for our dog. I had a tasty Sunday lunch too :)

Recently visited for a celebratory meal. Fillet Steak very very nice, generous servings of peppercorn. Food fine, cannot complain

Having just finished a late lunch with family here, the food was so bad that I need to write the review immediately.

We have visited this place before and the food has been great. Today on the other hand we were very disappointed with the service and the food! The waitress had no clue of what was on the menu and there was no manager in sight to deal with the problems! The food was disgraceful... Couscous which was stuck together like glue and a chicken breast which was rock hard! The meals had no flavour and the chef thought putting sweet chilli sauce over everything would mask the lack of taste.

We visited tonight for a family meal, we intended to go else where but it was fully booked (tried ringing to book a table but got no answer so chanced it). We decided to carry on driving and seeing where the roads took us to find a pub and literally stumbled across this place in the middle of no where! (We dont know the area so wasnt sure where we were going)

Was looking for somewhere different to eat out and discovered Tiger Inn.

Enjoyed a very nice meal here last Saturday night [6th July). The food was well presented and hot. The staff were attentive and Casey-Jayne was very helpful.

Just wanted to thank the Tiger Inn for the pleasant service and lovely food. We enjoyed the evening and found staff on this Friday to be in great spirits, friendly and very helpful. Will be there again soon!

Popped in last minute for dinner. A lovely friendly, local pub. Food was great, service was spot on. Good selection of local drinks. I thoroughly enjoyed a Chapel Down gin and tonic!

I retired at the end of January and my wife and I have been going out to lunch once a week, usually Friday, We've been touring pubs in the area and The Tiger Inn is the the first place we've been back to for a second visit. My wife and I went again on Wednesday this week (3 July) to celebrate her birthday We were very happy with the food and service the first time we went and the experience was repeated this week. However, we thought we were having a very nice lunch until we got to dessert... then it really took off! Rhubarb and Custard Cheesecake served with a rhubarb coulis and vanilla ice cream. Unbelievable! Very light, flavoursome and a lovely crumbly bottom! Exceptionally Yum Yum!

Went here with family for a birthday meal. The service was great and food was out in a reasonable time. Good atmosphere highly recommend

We visited the Tiger this evening for a celebratory meal - to say we were disappointed was an understatement! The service was rubbish, the food was disgusting (echoes the comments below - SCROLL DOWN) and music was blaring from the kitchen! It was so bad we refused to pay. We will be putting in a formal complaint as places like this should be banned from trading! This place needs shutting down ... such a disappointment after a 45 minute drive.

Have been to the Tiger many times and never been disappointed yet. No matter how busy they are and often fully booked the staff are always friendly and the food always good

Four of us booked to have an evening meal here recently and we were not disappointed. The place was very busy, the food coming out of the kitchen looked fab and the Staff very curteous and polite. The place is so quaint, areal old fashioned looking pub, with hops hanging from the beams. So pretty.

We were in the area, so popped in for a drink. This pub just gets better with each visit. Stunning views. New staff, and still very welcoming. We could sit here all day, if we had the time. We will be back for a lovely meal very soon.

Set in a lovely small hamlet this is an equally attractive local pub both inside and out. Serving traditional pub food, excellent quality, well cooked and presented. Staff were friendly and welcoming which was reflected in the overall atmosphere. As passing visitors we were made to feel very much at home.

Had heard great things. Sadly disappointed by the food. Old not fresh salad, old over cooked veg, & the seafood platter was really poor. The pork belly was good however.

Very nice interior , mediocre food, overlooked veggies, soggy chips . Dry chicken breast, had to ask for gravy. Not too expensive . Very good service!

we`re not people who like to hang about and we found the service here friendly and really fast. Popped in for lunch and there were a few people eating already. we got served at the bar straight away and food didnt take long to come out either. I had the steak and onion baguette which was so filling i could only eat half and the meat was cooked perfectly and tender. All the staff were friendly and attentive and we will be back for another visit .

Lovely meal and great staff. Again a good choice of pub to eat in. See you again, beautiful looking inside and out.

As my partners birthday we were really looking forward to having dinner at the Tiger as we had been before and knew how lovely the food was.

We popped into the Tiger Inn for a meal last weekend and it was lovely. They had some new items on the menu including roasted camembert, my absolute favourite, a little indulgent but so delicious. For main I was torn between the Roasted Chicken with Thyme or the slow cooked belly pork. After the rich cheesey starter I went for the chicken in the end. Luckily trying the belly pork just gives us an excuse to go back again very soon

What a lovely father's day out. As a vegetarian it can be difficult with very little beyond the veggie lasagna (as a veggie for 30 years I've gotten very bored with lasagna). They do have lasagna, but also so much more. I had the roasted camembert for starters and a veggie Wellington with all the roasted veggies. Superb. I can also recommend Young's Special ale. The waiter staff were very attentive as well. A real credit.

Went for a family meal. Staff friendly, venue very nice, but the food was very disappointing. Starters were fine but main courses were a let down. Pork belly was good; but vegetables very overcooked. Fish and chips satisfactory. Nachos tasted good, but once through the whole nachos at the top the rest appeared to be the broken remnants of the bottom of the packet. Worst by far were the ribs from the specials board; cold, tasteless and with extremely overcooked corn on the cob. I cannot actually think of a poorer meal I have been served. Because I tried to eat it, no refund offered. Will not be eating there again... it was just awful.

Firstly trying to book on line was a disaster, don’t bother there is no point.

Lunch on the terrace of The Tiger on a sunny Sunday was a perfect interlude to exploring the environs of Stone Street: Stelling Church and its ancient Yew in the morning, Wye, Crundale and Petham towards the end of the day.

We came away to Kent for the bank holiday and found this beautiful pub in the village in which we are staying. The menu online looked great, so we immediately booked a table. On arrival, we sat outside for a couple of drinks, before sitting down at our table in the bar. I ordered the tagliatelle with paprika prawns and my daughter and partner shared some garlic bread. I was served 1 1/2 shell on prawns, no paprika in sight and the sauce was clearly just tinned tomatoes with NO seasoning whatsoever. A family dining alongside us had ordered the prawn sizzler from the specials board, as did my partner. On seeing it arrive next to us, the gentleman immediately sent it back- a pile of plain white rice with chilli sauce drizzled round the edge, with a little dish of fried shrimps alongside. I couldn’t allow this to be served to my partner so I immediately cancelled the order, paid for drinks and starters, and left. Still £38 worse off and still needing an evening meal. The only positive is the building itself and the setting, and the FANTASTIC bar tender. I felt sorry for him having to deal with complaints, which he did so very well. The “chef” is, I’m afraid to say, totally incapable of creating anything beyond a very basic offering, and thus the menu and prices should reflect this, or he should be replaced. You would get better food at a Harvester or Wetherspoons.

The food was ok and reasonably priced. However the service really let the place down. Although the staff were nice enough, they really lacked speed, efficiency and an ability to take and deliver orders

Several people I know raved about this so booked a table for my 50th. The setting and venue was amazing. My son had to stir his coffee with a knife as there were no spoons with our coffees (I didn’t realise he had done this until after) the staff didn’t seems to be about much to ask, we also wanted extra gravy but gave up. The vegetables were cold when served and had to ask them to be reheated. My chicken was Luke warm as thought it had been coined and left for the other meals to be ready too. We had a nice time but feel that unfortunately it wasn’t the best meal we had, so sad as thought I would be singing it’s praises.

Really great local pub we discovered via Facebook. Responsive for bookings, accommodated a large group and were sympathetic about a last minute time change. Some amazing beers (try the Tiger Bitter) and some great roast dinners. Brownie was a little dry on the pudding choices but still very chocolaty and the pear tart all considered exceptional.

Attended for my fathers 88th birthday -family celebration - eight of us - a pub local to them.

This is another of my favourite local pubs. On my last visit we had a snack lunch but we have had many other meals here and none has ever diisappointed. Why is it called The Tiger? No idea, but there is a toy tiger near the bar.

Another lovely evening out at the Tiger Inn last night. We took some visiting family members out for drinks and dinner and had a wonderful relaxed evening. Our guests are from London, they wanted to go here after us previously telling them about the place. They loved the location, the building and it’s friendly atmosphere. They are so jealous not to have somewhere like this local to themselves - we guess we will see more of them now!..This evening I had Tomato & Garlic Tagliatelle starter followed by the best Fish and Chips I’ve had in ages. To top off my meal this time I had a chocolate dome! ... Mmm. Can’t wait for our next visit - dinners on our visitors next time. Thank you to the team at the Tiger Inn

I came to the Tiger last night with my family (7 in total) for an evening out. Several members of my family, including myself have intolerances the staff couldn’t have been more helpful when advising us with what to choose. My sister is a vegetarian and was very happy with the vegetarian options. Desserts were lovely and drinks perfect! Definitely will be back again!

Visited this lovely country pub again on Friday evening as we had such a delicious meal previously. We were not disappointed. Lovely welcoming atmosphere and good table service. I can’t recommend this place enough.

Well what a dreadful evening this was a special evening to celebrate two birthdays 6 adults and two children under 4 in the party. Table booked for 7pm whilst two of the party were 10 minutes late the service was appalling. Starters once ordered off the menu we were informed not available as the wrong menu then reordered 30 minutes later 2 starters missing drinks not delivered 2 hours later still no mains and informed another 10 minutes and actually we should have pre ordered as there was 6 off us really! We left at that point albeit there was no charge for the drinks and the starters that were delivered even though they were cold and greasy. The explanations was a new new chef and the Manager was not no duty? So disappointing will not go back again..

It doesn't take much to impress me, I have quite simple tastes. I liked the friendly service and the ambience of the place. And the beer is good. What isn't good is being presented with the lamest ploughman's lunch I've ever had and being charged £12 for it. For starters don't bring my food on a chopping board, put it on a plate. Chopping boards are for preparing food and wooden ones have hygiene issues, how do I know it's clean? A pinch is not a measure for salad. Four tiny wedges of cheddar do not make customers go wow. If I was a ploughman I would have been going back to work very pissed off. The food here is usually excellent to be fair but they definitely need to look at the ploughman's. How hard can it be?

The venue was clean and not too noisy. Food was delicious and came out on time. The spacing between tables was good. Service could be improved as all the staff seemed a little flat. The bill was not bought to the table, we had to get up and pay at the bar. Not the end of the world but definitely an area to improve upon to get an excellent rating.

I visited last Wednesday with my mum, dad and girlfriend... we had read the reviews and drove down from Maidstone to eat there.

I visited last Wednesday with my mum, dad and girlfriend... we had read the reviews and drove down from Maidstone to eat there.

This little country pub is a true gem. The food was amazing. It was well presented, delicious and the portions were huge. The staff are lovely and helpful especially Micky (i think thats her name) well worth the money will be back

We visited The Tiger yesterday for the first time and will certainly return. The food, friendly service and atmosphere were delightful and the restaurant charming. Go and try it for yourself - you won’t be disappointed!

Visited with my mum and 2 children. We have the meat platter and camembert to start, then roast pork belly and roast lamb and finished with waffle and chocolate bomb-all was delicious! The staff were all friendly and it made the perfect mother's day!

We keep on coming back to this pub for the food and service, even with an hours drive round trip!

I've had countless Sunday pub lunches over the years and I can say this place is right up there with the best. Called in at the start of a country walk and booked a table for 3. They were pretty booked up but allocated a table in the front bar. Came back at 3pm and sure enough the place was busy but our table awaited. No sooner had we sat down and the attentive staff were taking our drinks order and explaining the specials. Pan fried Pigeon with black pudding drizzled with honey and balsamic glaze, and the biggest breaded Camembert we had ever seen were the starters. Main was Pan fried fillet of Salmon on crushed new potato cake, roasted lamb fillets with crust on dauphinois potato and a beef roast all accompanied with a lovely selection of veg (cauliflower cheese, swede, mange tout and asparagus)

We visited the tiger inn many times and food is consistently good and well presented. Staff is helpful, polite and friendly, I truly believe that food taste even better when served with a smile. can't wait to visit again soon.

We came for dinner and it was a really great meal in a real, old-fashioned village pub, with wooden floors and tables. The home-made food was excellent and delicious, whether it was meat or fish (our party had both) and good value for money. The service was very good and the staff friendly and helpful. This was our first visit but I will certainly not be our last.

I don't know how I haven't discovered this place before now.

Lovely meal and friendly staff. We shared the cold meat platter which was very generous and a gorgeous camembert which was nice and gooey. Followed by fish and chips and a seafood platter which was also really good. The only reason we didn't have puds (which sounded delish!) was because we were stuffed! Staff apologised for the wait but we were quite happy in our surroundings and we didn't actually wait that long, especially as the food was freshly cooked. Brilliant country pub - modern but cosy. Highly recommend.

We visited this restaurant for a couples meal. The pub has very countrified decor, with hops in abundance. The outside seating is very pleasant. The food was delicious and the restaurant had a really nice atmosphere about it. We later visited a second time with our small children for an evening meal and were not disappointed!

I don’t usually review places we visit but the Tiger Inn impressed me so much I felt compelled to - My wife and I were looking for a lovely country pub to relax, have a drink and eat some lunch together. We wanted to find a perfect Kentish country pub so decided to take drive out and see what we could find. Boy we hit the jackpot! We chanced upon this pub finding a really warm welcome from the staff and logs burning on the fire. The pub provides a traditional, friendly and warm environment and staff are very welcoming. We started with a tasting of the local ales on offer - my wife browsed the days papers as I watched the flames dance in the log burner, bliss. We then ordered lunch (a great selection on the menu too - I’d recommend the salmon, potatoes and artichoke - the best I’ve had in a long while), scrummy ! The Tiger Inn strikes me as one of those “best kept secrets” because there were walkers there who had chosen to base their day out around the pub as their start (with a walk) and finish (with a drink and bite to eat) trip, and locals relaxing with a pint. We chatted to a number of them in the bar - clearly people keep going back. It’s so nice to find a lovely clean well kept Kentish pub in such perfect surroundings. We will definitely be going back - and next time we will be taking friends along for evening dinner. Can’t wait!
