The Watering Hole Cafe & Outdoor Playground in Thanet - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Terrible service from the owners we got bacon sandwiches to eat out side in the garden were the on site park is for a seagull to come down a take it befor I even took a bite I told the owners and they didn't even offer to replace the food this is the second bad experience we have had there the first was moldy bread it's safe to say we will not be returning witch is unfortunate because the children love the park there

Jungle Jim’s was absolutely heaving so the wait to get in was ages . We chose to pay a visit to the Watering Hole absolutely loved our time spent £4.50.to spend as long as you wanted to play outside in the playground . Order tea for adults , drinks for two grandchildren, two slices or freshly made cake and a twisted long colourful rock on a stick £19 very reasonable . Even though it was very breezy and cold silly me did not have a coat only a fleece to keep me warm but still enjoyed watching the children thoroughly enjoying themselves. Fantastic atmosphere staff were wonderful. Such a wonderful clean welcoming place . Highly recommended.

Kids like it it's affordable to get in. Can stay all day for 4. 50 per child.. Has toilets. Sells food but we don't buy it we have food before we go quite expensive and my kids ain't bothered .

Another wonderful day at this park. The staff are lovely, the park is always clean and safe and never over crowded. Thank you to the watering hole cafe!! Stuart.

We had a wonderful day ,enjoyed wonderful food,the kids had a wonderful time playing! Brilliant value for money! Good size children’s hot lunch , amazing dairy free cake. They even do a special afternoon tea, The only downside is that I forgot to buy some cake to bring home! Always next time :-)

Visited today with family. Staff were friendly and welcoming and the kids loved the outside area even in the rain they were entertained. We ordered food which was cooked freshly for us and the home made cakes and iced coffee were lovely. Would recommend a visit

Ate here today, paid £6 for a tuna panini, nothing to shout about, £7 for the worst hotdog in the world - looked like it was straight from a can in a dry roll with some chips, it looked like something that would be served at 5yr olds birthday party. Had the world's smallest cup of tea served in a little glass cup that took about 4 mouthfuls to finish. Cakes looked delicious but the lunch food is overpriced for what it is and will definitely not be eating here again. Considering you've got the main quex cafe/restaurant around the corner and the food there is amazing, I'd be going there in the future. Really disappointing, feel like we've been had. On top of that we got overcharged to start with and when I questioned it they didn't seem interested, no eye contact, just looking down at whatever he was doing. Just didn't get a good feeling from the place overall.

I visited here today with family members and grandsons. Lovely play area but rudeness from Gentleman in the cafe towards my grandsons was awful on leaving. The boys walked through the restaurant to get to the car park and were looking at the ice creams on their own, he said if your not buying anything leave the shop. We had spent about £40 this afternoon altogether on an assortment of drinks and food and would tell them off if they were doing anything wrong. We feel really annoyed by his attitude.

Fabulous afternoon tea here - the price was reasonable and the proprietors made sure we had plenty of everything. Would definitely go there again. Highly recommended

My kids absolutely love it here and such good value for money. We have spent several days here over the summer :)

We were going to the jungle but was booked so came here instead as owned by the same people and they suggested it. I'm glad we did as it is a nice warm day and my girls are having a great time. The staff couldn't do more for us as my youngest has dairy and soya allergy so eating out is hard, but the staff went through all the food and gave me a list of what she can have. Would highly recommend to come here when the weather is warm or hot instead of the jungle, plus it is only £3 per child and adults are free

Brilliant play area with animals lots of seating but would be even better if there were some sun shades and a great well organised cafe we will return

Excellent value at £3, perfect couple of hours for our 3 year old grandchild. Lovely cafe and friendly staff. Lots of seating for adults, a large area with lots to do. Great value in these hard times

Great visit today with my family - worth the entry fee for children, lots of play equipment and good lunch choice in the cafe.

Absolutely brilliant I started off my 50th birthday with afternoon tea there staff were so friendly, my daughter who has autism / hearing impaired attended they were so engaging making her feel comfortable even wanting to sign to her. Would recommend 💯
