The pork was lovely, but the vegetables were just to al dente /raw for my liking so could not eat them! The potatoes were nice. It says like most restaurants Gluten Free Option available!! No Yorkshire pudding, that’s not an option?’in my mind? The gravy was gluten free! That was lucky!

Where to start... My wife and I stayed the night before boarding a cruise in Dover. We arrived later than we expected (at the beginning of dinner service), and the restaurant was fully booked for the night. Nic said that he would seat us if we wanted and his food was delicious. I've traveled 1/2 the world and always want traditional local food, so when I saw Pigeon Salad, it was a no-brainer, Nic's culinary skills confirmed it. 5 Stars The next day we needed to get to Dover for our cruise and all the cabs were booked for the remembrance ceremony of the bombing of the Royal Marine barracks, so Eve gave us a ride to the port in her car. How are we supposed to rate their way above and beyond service?? In a short answer, you can't. 10 out of 10 Oh, I forgot about the traditional English breakfast Nic fixed for us in the morning. Everything was exactly what I had invisioned and more. Nic and Eve showed us why they are superhosts!!

A five minute stroll along from the pier on the seafront, lovely old building, welcoming and casual dining with local art on the walls, full bar available. This is such a relaxing family business, friendly and helpful service with home cooked food using local produce. We can only comment on the traditional Sunday lunch, which was absolutely perfect, followed by exceptional deserts. The restaurant offers, 2/3 course plat du jour options at a reasonable price. This is without doubt the best restaurant/ pub Sunday lunch we had had in years . Just exceptional, ambiance, food, service.

This is a favourite restaurant which has adapted to the Coronavirus lockdown by offering a weekend takeaway service with the option of delivery for the housebound. Finding myself alone for the Easter weekend I decided to treat myself for Sunday lunch, and this had proved to be a tonic beyond value. I chose a starter of local pigeon with a creamy cabbage sauce followed by lamb shank in red wine with vegetables and mash.It was delivered on the dot by a friendly lady - very important if one is isolated. The lamb was as tender as could be, the pigeon gamey and the seasonal vegetables cooked to perfection. It all arrived hot but I put the lamb in the microwave for a couple of minutes while I enjoyed the pigeon. Very generous helpings and excellent value. I congratulate the 3 Compasses for their initiative, wish them all the best in these difficult times and thank them for brightening my day.

My wife and I booked into this wonderful place for a Sunday lunch, we don't get many Sundays together so are always looking for somewhere extra special in which to spend some quality time together. The decor is nice and light and airy, unlike a lot of restaurants which are to be honest a bit gloomy. The tables are nicely spaced out and not crammed together to fit the maximum amount of people in. We were greeted with a smile by our waitress who gave us a choice of tables and invited us to choose. There are complimentary olives and lots of delicious 100% baked on the premises bread rolls on offer which shouldn't be missed. we both had Pigeon breast starter which was to die for, and a mix of short rib beef and roast beef mains which were melt in the mouth fantastic. We both had deserts too which rounded off a perfect afternoon. There were a good selection of beers and wines on offer and nobody in the whole place had to ask for a drink.We are definitely going to visit this place again soon and quite honestly cannot wait.The staff are all kind, considerate and attentive and I cannot understand how earlier reports are to the contrary.Thank you to everyone at TTC for making our visit so fabulously emjoyable.

We hadn't visited this restaurant for some years having been put off by poor customer service when 2 meals were overcooked and we received no apology nor were offered replacements. On this occasion we visited with friends, wishing to give it another go. We were not disappointed. The meal was one of the best we have had, lovely fresh vegetables which some places in town hardly offer. Our party of 5 all chose different mains, two had the same starter whilst the other three chose different items. The portions were very generous on both courses. The wine wasn't expensive either. The desserts didn't disappoint . We weren't hurried and the service was good. We will definately visit again, our faith in the Compasses was restored!

The food here is great however the service leaves a lot to be desired (my rating is reflective of the service and definitely not the quality of the food). It is slightly shambolic and frenetic which in turn makes you, as a diner, feel uncomfortable. Unfortunately on a couple of occasions the freneticism resulted in rather curt, bordering on rude, responses from our waiter when we were asking for things that had either already been asked for once or were simply required e.g. a knife and fork for one of the party to eat their main course. My advice would be - more haste, less speed!

This was our "big night out" in Deal. Staying in a hotel where we were underwhelmed by the dinner menu, this was the first night of our stay when the Three Compasses was open in the evening. Quiet trade, some drinkers at the bar and only another four or six diners, but super service, great food, good carafe of wine and although pretty empty I liked the ambiance. When we return to Deal, which we will, we will organise it so we can go here for more than one evening's dining....

The special menu gave a good selection of choices for each course and the food was delicious. We chose three courses and had non alcoholic drinks but the cost was under £35 for two - great value for money. The surroundings are elegant and fresh and the welcome and service warm and friendly. We booked for 12 noon and lingered over coffee until after 2 pm, not feeling rushed to leave. Sea views a bonus! Highly recommended.

Our third visit and again another triumph! Starters were scallops, crab linguini and pigeon followed by sea bass and confit de canard. Delicious food great service. Bonus is the freshly baked rolls (cheese our favourite) and the house wine (served in carafes) is very palatable and reasonably priced by the carafe. Deserts were syrup sponge and custard and plum and apple tart. Looking forward to our next visit!

Booked a table for four on a Thursday evening. Service was excellent but the meal was very disappointing. Ham hock terrine was fridge cold & although the egg was nicely poached the flavour was lost by the greasy 'straw' potato garnish. The lamb shanks were under seasoned and sat un-appetizingly on the plates with rice floating in a watery liquid. My plum tart, served cold, was stodgy. A further main course of fillet steak was, I am told, tasteless. Such a shame as the restaurant is in such a nice area overlooking the sea, central to Deal and is most comfortable.

Had a birthday meal with friends, Excellent food and service. Very reasonably priced. Attentive, friendly but unobtrusive staff.

Arrived at this friendly, intimate place after a long drive from Hampshire. We were so impressed with the knowledgeable, hands on service and the quality of the food. The sea bass and catch of the day were perfectly cooked. My son's steak was the exact temperature. It was so amazing to have the ability to eat as well as relax after our journey in the more than capable hands of the staff here at 81 Beach Street. Divine!

Delicious burger at Blake’s of Dover. A very friendly gentleman behind the bar serving lovely pints at affordable prices. A lovely evening out for anyone looking for a typical English Experience in Dover.
