Weald Community Shop and Cafe in Sevenoaks

Lovely place in picturesque surroundings, delicious food well presented with efficient and friendly staff.

We thoroughly enjoyed our evening here. I took my husband here for part of his 50th birthday celebrations. Food was fantastic. We chose the 8 course tasting menu and their Old Bank Billionaires champagne was really nice and very affordable at £70! The snacks at the beginning are amazing!! Each course was great. The only one that was a let down was my husbands 2nd dessert. You can choose between a soufflé and a crème caramel. The texture of the crème caramel was not as expected and had not a nice texture or taste. I tried it too and didn’t like it. But out of how many courses we had, it’s good it was just 1 that was disliked. We weren’t rushed at all, our table was at 6.45 and we left at 10.15pm absolutely stuffed! Between some courses there seemed to be quite a long wait and then suddenly our 2nd dessert arrived and the waitress had to nod to somebody to remove our 1st dessert plates so that was a bit quick for our liking so could be timed a bit better I guess. The staff were all fantastic. Luciano chats to you like you’re old friends and he’s great to chat with and so funny. The young blonde girl was brilliant and so polite and friendly. We loved the way she very clearly explained every dish, that makes a big difference and was really appreciated. One downfall of this place was the loos. One toilet was in a bit of a mess and the loo I used didn’t flush! They really could do with being upgraded seeing this is a Michelin starred restaurant. There are no hooks or shelves in the loo so you have to decide where to put your bag! On the floor? On the toilet cistern? Please put a hook on the door as I’m sure I can’t be the only lady who doesn’t really want to place a nice evening bag on a toilet floor. That’s the reason for the missing star so 4 stars. I would definitely recommend The Old Bank.

The perfect pub! Excellent homemade food and generous portions ✅ Kind and attentive staff ✅ Welcomes dogs ✅ Nice patrons ✅ Great value ✅ Excellent selection of drinks including non-alcoholic beers ✅ Lovely location ✅ We loved our visit and can’t wait to return.

Friendly staff, be prepared for large portions. Sundaes yummy!

Busy restaurant within garden centre. Proper good quality food, perfectly cooked and beautifully presented. I arrived without a booking (essential to book) and the lovely waitress made me welcome and managed to squeeze me in during a very busy service. A hidden gem.
