Just popped in for breakfast and had avocado on sourdough with poached egg and smoked salmon. Unprompted by me, the chef insisted on giving me a free runny egg (not pictured) when she came to check everything was ok. Sorry about the pic, I got stuck in before I thought about taking it. 😊 It was DELICIOUS!!! and the homemade harissa, pine nut, sun dried tomato paste was a great addition. Good oat milk flat white and friendly service. This is a great offering at a fair price. I’ll be back and treat myself again.

Wonderful restaurant! Family run by a local family. They were really friendly. The food is DELICIOUS! Think Asian tapas. We ordered 6 dishes and shared them. Oh my word! So good! And a good variety. It's slightly further up the high street so not as busy as other places and not as expensive. I highly recommend it!

What an amazing hidden gem in Whitstable! I was warmly welcomed by the owners of this delightful family, independent business😌Lauren & Tamsin went out of their way to make sure I was comfortable from where I sat, to the music and the temperature. I felt very looked after, like I was visiting friends🤗I opted for a selection of small plates. Each and every one was delightful! Being gluten & dairy free, Lauren went out of her way to adapt the dishes to my exact liking. They were all delicious with an authentic, south East Asian twist. From the Vietnamese prawn rolls, to the best chicken goujons I’ve ever had! The squid was👌🏽 I highly recommend this restaurant for locals and tourists alike! Thank you Lauren & Tamsin for your friendly conversation, care and excellent customer experience. I really enjoyed my dinner with you. I hope your business goes from strength to strength✨

Some of the best food we’ve ever eaten! We are devastated to have been just visiting the area, and would highly consider coming back just for this place! There were several gluten free/vegan options, and Lauren went above and beyond to accommodate my gluten allergy. Prices were fair, cocktails were amazing, and we had wonderful and prompt service from Roy. This level of hospitality cannot be beat, I would recommend to anyone.

Food took 40 minutes to make a burrito. No apology or management of the situation. Got up to ask twice. Same song playing on a loop the entire hour we were there. Completely empty place. Off duty staff talking at the back of the room. Nobody to pay at the end. Nearly 30 pounds for two Breakfast Burritos and a concentrated orange juice.

Could be great but not quite there yet. We’ve been in 3 times now as we want to support the local restaurants and bars. Each time, the service has been slow. Last time, we waited 5-10 mins to order and then my husband waited 15 minutes more for his 1 single beer to arrive. I didn’t review that time. But this week, we brought 6 people for food and drinks and the wait was very slow. We were told that 4 meals on the menu were not available. The drinks came at different times and so did the meals. 1 person had finished by the time another got their meal. Lovely decor and it’s in a great position so it could be better with improved service.

Visited for late lunch today, menu looked varied with a choice of small plates or 3 variety of burgers. Opted for the Pork Belly Board which was nice but very small for £15, small pieces of pork with a board covered in lettuce & spring onion, had Asian loaded fries with it which were very nice. Cocktails expensive at £9.50 each! The staff were friendly but service was slow and only two other tables in there.

Mixed feelings on this place. Predominately, the menu is a lot of ‘fried’ stuff. The Gochujang chicken wings were immense. It was really very tasty, and the chilli heat was hot as you’d expect nicely packed with fresh chilli. Wish we had just ordered 2 or 3 portions of these. Mac and cheese bites were ok but again ‘fried’. I think mac and cheese as it is “originally” is better. The loaded fries were very tasty, and a portion to share between 2 is plenty, but the chicken burger was a bit bland, and you guessed it, fried. The bottle of white wine wasn't chilled. We were given a wine cooler and a glass of ice to add but not the same as an already chilled bottle. Service was ok it was pretty much empty, so there was not much atmosphere when we visited but did spot the venue was packed with a band or disco the following evening. Would go back for the wings and dirty fries, but skip the rest.

Read some great reviews about “Thirty Nine” so had to try out what the praise was all about. Having lost a couple of decent Cafe’s in Ashford recently we reserved a table and travelled up. Service was welcoming and we were early from our reserved time which was no issue. Ordered our Coffee’s and food. 20 minutes or so for the food to arrive. Fisherman’s and an English Breakfast. Fisherman’s arrived complete and looked great and was enjoyed. English was Without Egg due to breaking during cooking and were preparing others meanwhile. Baked Beans were cold but the Tomatoes and Sausage were really nice. Coffees were good. Great potential but just need some minor improvements for 5 stars. Thank you. Extra Bacon and Mushrooms were deducted from the bill on account of cold beans. We’ll be back when passing. Thank You.

We all had a very tasty meal at Thirty Nine. It was especially nice for me, as a coeliac, to have so many gluten free options. We told the restaurant in advance about me being coeliac and they changed the oil in the fryer so it wouldn't have traces of gluten in which was amazing. They were very knowledgeable about which items I could eat and found alternatives. They use gluten-free soy sauce in the sauces which means I could eat most things anyway! The restaurant looks really nice inside, the staff are very friendly - we stayed for a few drinks afterwards. Will definitely be going back!

Popped in on a Sunday morning, it was just us and another couple only. The waitress was pleasant, however, she didn’t speak any English so the encounter was a little awkward. Drinks came quickly and were fine. We ordered a mocha and a flat white, nothing special but nothing to complain about. We ordered food at the same time, we had one avocado on toast with smoked salmon and a poached egg & one English breakfast with double sausage, egg and bacon; both of which came as were listed on the menu. We waited around 40 minutes for the food to come out. The avo/salmon/eggs was very generous with the avocado and the smoked salmon was good quality but unfortunately the toast was not toasted and the egg yolk was hard. The full English came with cold mushrooms and the sausages were void of any fat/juiciness. The rest was average. Overall, I can’t say we’d recommend. It cost £35 for two breakfasts and 2 coffees so would’ve expected it to be a bit better.

We arranged a regular community group coffee morning on a trial basis here. At first owner seemed lovely and friendly and accommodating. We were asked to arrive early the first time as we were a group to help avoid the lunchtime rush. We waited 30 minutes outside because they weren’t open. Then we got told staffing issues etc. the service was slow and some of our group left and cancelled their orders. Due to the place being nice and the menu being good we thought it was a few teething problems. The owner asked us if we could pre order or order as a group at the next meeting due to the kitchen being small and not being able to keep up with orders etc. Pre ordering was not an option for us as we don’t know who will come on the day so we asked all members to order as a group to make things easier. Service was still really slow even on the drinks which aren't made in the kitchen. When food finally arrived the order wasn’t right. One of our members was quite rightly a bit direct with the owner about waiting over an hour for a sausage sandwich which then wasn’t the right order. Unfortunately the owner became very defensive and didn’t handle the situation very well and was quite rude. She then called the leader of the group into the kitchen and said she would refuse to serve our members because they were being rude to her. It was pointed out that she had the right to refuse service but she would need to refund our members and we would postpone a third session with them pending us finding an alternative venue. The venue is quite large and a small kitchen is not an excuse for poor service and management skills especially when you wait over an hour for a drink. 3 months after not returning to run a group there the manager emailed us claiming that she was £150 out of pocket due to getting extra staff and food for our group and how disappointed she was we didn’t contact to say we weren’t coming…. Well given that we hadn’t returned for 3 months I’m not sure why she thought we would be coming back. Sadly I cannot recommend this place. The owner needs to address the poor service, excuse about size of the kitchen (it’s not your customers problem that you can’t cater to the number of covers you have space for) and bad attitude.

Twice I have ordered from this restaurant via JustEat, twice I have been made to wait ages for them to confirm my order only for them to cancel my order. What’s the point of offering delivery if you are just going to make people wait...

We booked a table of 10 for a birthday celebration and were required to pay a £10 per person deposit to secure the reservation. Upon arrival, the staff were accommodating, especially with our birthday cake, and greeted us warmly. The drinks order was taken promptly, and since we had pre-ordered our meals, there was no need to wait to place our food order. However, the food took a considerable amount of time to arrive. While some of our group enjoyed their meals, others were less satisfied. The least enjoyed dish was the steak, which was unfortunately very tough and chewy. The couple who ordered the Moules Frites found it decent, but they both felt unwell the following day. While this could be coincidental, it’s worth noting. On a more positive note, the meat platter was excellent—delicious and generously portioned, easily enough to share between two people. It was definitely a highlight of the menu. After our main courses, the staff brought out the cake, and they made the moment enjoyable, continuing their excellent service in that regard. Unfortunately, the experience was marred by incredibly slow service. We spent over three hours at the table, with long waits between courses, which really affected the evening. When it came time to pay, the waitress insisted that tips should be given in cash, so we complied. The venue has a policy of not allowing re-entry after 11 pm, and as it was 10:35 pm, we barely had time to grab a drink elsewhere and return for the entertainment. The bouncers were rude, as has been the case in previous visits. When we returned at 10:55 pm, despite having spoken to them earlier, they demanded ID again and were unnecessarily unpleasant to our group. After we left, I realized the £100 deposit had not been deducted from our bill. When we returned the next morning to collect the remainder of our cake (which had mysteriously lost all its chocolate truffles from the top), I inquired about the deposit. The staff member was polite and assured me it had been accounted for, but I wasn’t convinced. After emailing the restaurant, I received a response a week later confirming that the deposit had, in fact, not been deducted and would be refunded to the person who booked. After missing the call back, the booker attempted to contact the restaurant several times over the next few weeks. They returned our call once, but it took multiple failed calls on our end before we finally reached them. Overall, our experience was soured by the slow service, unpleasant door staff and the mishandling of the deposit. £100 is a significant amount to overlook, and had I not rechecked the bill, it would have added to what was already an expensive meal.

Arrived to a very loud and noisy bar to find out our table was next to the door, across from the bar and next to noisy drinkers. We waited 15 mins for a drink although the drinkers at the bar where served ahead of our drinks order.....we knew then we had made a mistake! The food was excellent we both cleared our plate but atmosphere, service and attention to detail was lacking. Would not return in the immediate future.

Visited today - quiet Saturday afternoon. No ales on draft. Really rather nasty Sauvignon Blanc. For some reason the music was very very loud. Maybe it’s going through a transitional phase, but it wasn’t much fun today.
