Wyatt & Jones in Thanet

The food was ok , but the roast dinner contained less than 30 grams of sirloin. The main course was too small for the bill. In my opinion it was not worth the money. We all left hungry !

Almost had went through the entire menu .not a bad dish

This restaurant is now called 27 Harbour Street & I could not recommended it more. We originally ate there as a family on 22nd Dec and loved it so much we returned with our extended family last night. Everything was delicious, but the bream and cod were particular favourites. The shrimp, clams and mushroom dishes were heavenly and you must order the delicious bread to soak up the sauces. The amazing food was only outshone by the incredible service. Truly some of the warmest and most professional service we have been lucky enough to enjoy. We can not wait to return to Broadstairs to eat at 27 Harbour Street again. Do not miss this gem.

Absolutely loved every dish. The food was phenomenal. Can't wait to come back.

Unfortunately, we left this restaurant still hungry . Even though most of the food had nice oils and flavours ,the dishes were so so small . If you like tiny meals that cost a fortune, then it will suit you . We had to fill ourselves with bread . The bill was over a hundred pounds for two people, so it was disappointing. We didn't drink alcohol only water . Have to say the sweet was delicious. Sorry not to give a better review. I only hope the restaurant reads the reviews and takes notice of what customers say . Staff were very helpful and friendly .

Think it’s changes it’s name now but we went on 4th November ‘23. Really great restaurant. Kind staff, food was clearly made with love. Well done to those in the kitchen. We loved it

What a lovely place food was excellent service excellent my wife is gluten free and it was a pleasure to be able to select most of the dishes as opposed to the odd one or two I would recommend this place very highly not cheap but if you enjoy good quality food we’ll worth a visit

We were lucky and found two seats at a very busy time. Everything was cooked beautifully and flavors were bold and delicious. Only downside is that some plates are incredibly small, even some mains. Yes, I know the description of the place says “small-plates”, but three thin slices of fish in the crudo or four slices of miso glazed swede for a 20 pound main dish, even with a Sunday roast trimming, can be surprisingly small. Would love to go back as food was delicious, service was very friendly, and wine offering was up to it, but hopefully portions could be slightly revised.

We had a delicious lunch today. We came across the restaurant by chance and we are so glad we did. Everything from the bread, the wine, small plates and desert was absolutely delicious. We had gilt head bream off the grill which was simply stunning. Some of the best fish we have eaten for many years. Well deserved reviews for a fabulous restaurant. If you haven’t tried this place, then go without hesitation!

This was a delicious find. Our waitress recommended six small plates for two people and she was absolutely right, we chose three cold, three hot, but start with a nibble of sour dough bread with (melted) shrimp butter. 😋 The food is lovingly prepared, a feast for the eyes and flavoursome. We left feeling satisfied but not too full. We didn't have dessert. There is a lovely atmosphere in the restaurant and we looked out on the water as the sun went down. This is not a cheap restaurant but that is because it is quality. A great experience. Sorry, no photos, we were too focused on the food!

Visited for a birthday meal and couldn't be more impressed! Exquisite food, exceptional service. We will be back!

Wonderful food and exceptional service

went here 3 days ago for my 18th and i wouldn't have wanted to spend my evening in any other place - such a memorable experience. the food was incredible; some of the best small dishes i've had - the flavours were delicious. the bartender was so lovely and recommended me a wine, and the rest of the staff were great too. such a nice vibe in there, i highly recommend! then you can go on a walk on the beach after ;)

Exceptional food in the very best spot in Broadstairs. Went on a the hottest Sunday of the year and in the face of sweltering temperatures and a broken card machine, the team went far out their way to ensure we were all attentively tended. The small plates on Sunday are a recent addition to the trad lunch menu and were all delicious and beautifully presented. Dinner for two, of exquisite quality, with oysters and a brutally cold Viognier for £135 including tip? Yes please! Highly recommend you all visit (but not all at once as I’m planning a return visit ASAP!)

We had an excellent dining experience here food was superb.The only comment I would like to make is that a little less oil on some of these dishes would be much better.

Very fresh and delicious seafood 🦞 The service is also perfect 👍 Highly recommend the Lindisfarne oyster, prawn ceviche and tuna tartare! Best oysters and prawn I have ever eaten in UK. Other dishes were also fresh and delicious 😋

Great tapas style food. Steak and fish was excellent while the coquette flower was exquisite

Enjoyed a restaurant that was Different

We were a bit worried about the whole small plates thing in case we didn't get enough to eat! We needn't have been. It's actually a great way to eat as it allows you to try a greater range of the fabulous food this restaurant has to offer (particular favs were the devilled mackerel and pommel anna). Also they are very generous about letting you try the wine before you buy and you can buy wine by the glass without the markup which most restaurants apply which meant my husband and I got to choose what we really wanted rather than compromise on bottle of wine we could both drink. Staff were friendly and helpful too. We'll definitely be back.

Great location and wonderful food. The team were really knowledgeable and helpful about allergens and the gluten free options were superb. The heritage tomato salad made us both smile so much, the flavours were exquisite. We were very lucky to get a last minute booking because the team at Wyatt and Jones really know their stuff, from the delicious ginger switchel to the decadent chocolate palet the meal was divine (although the sauce with the gilt head bream tasted oddly of mashed potatoes it still complimented the nuttiness of the fish so no complaints) and I can't wait to see the seasonal changes reflected in the menus.

A deserving Michelin lister, a great wine list, interesting flavours, fresh, delicious. Must book. Amazing view.

Book, book, book. Jan and the team do an incredible job. The flavours are beautiful, as is the presentation, a very interesting wine list. A very deserving place in the Michelin list. The sea view is perfect. Young chefs cooking wonders.

Finally managed to get a table here. Google online booking does not allow booking for solo diners but the girls were kind enough to accommodate me at the bar area. I had a wonderful lunch and chatted with a local family who were so friendly. Jersey oysters, tuna tartar, clams and special lobster were all delicious. Especially the tomato salad. I was too busy enjoying the dishes and didn't end up taking pics for other dishes. Great wine by the glasses option. Tips: you can make an online booking for 2 pp but make a note if it's for a single dinner. The restaurant would make adjustments on their end.

Prompt and courteous service with very helpful free advice about seagulls. Enjoyed a lovely rhubarb and custard ice-cream in a substantial waffle cone!

My friend and I have both been coming to this fabulously located restaurant for nearly 10 years and it has never failed. Particularly on our visit last Sunday (09/07) where everything we ate was perfection. Haven’t had such good courgette flowers outside Italy, the Shrimp Bread perfectly seasoned. Tuna Tartare so perfectly balanced with its accompanying Japanese seasoning and the Bream deliciously char grilled with another perfect accompaniment. The squid ink paella was probably the best of anything that I’ve ever eaten with Squid Ink in (and that includes dishes at the River Cafe) and a piece of perfection with clam and mussel in it as well. And a huge thank you to Mr Wyatt/Jones for squeezing us in and keeping us informed. The service was slick and spot on and our many plates perfectly timed so we never felt hurried. Very much appreciated and we hope to return soon.

Really enjoyed our lunch here - the food was delicious and I loved trying out the English wines. Definitely coming back again!

whenever near always make an effort to eat here. this has been our best experience at this restaurant, service was impeccable, great detailed knowledge about every plate of food. I am gluten intolerant and I have rarely seen menus with so many choices for me. drinks list was very good also. this experience will stay with us for a long while and looking forward to dine here again, hopefully this year again.

Wow. What a great place ! Imagine the best wine bar crossed with an amazing small bites restaurant where you will want to order every single thing on the menu. Where the service is world class. And where the vibe is the perfect blend of intimate and relaxed. We’ll that’s Wyatt and Jones. Go there now and you won’t have to imagine it !!!

Terrible customer service, very poorly run business. I would highly recommend NOT to give money to this business. What an enormous shame.

Very nice place food very good service excellent expensive but worth it dogs are also welcome Busy popular place highly recommended will go back

Nice spot, we enjoyed the small plates but with our Sunday roast it was a bit over cooked our fish as you can see in the picture half of the fish was burnt. Did mention to the staff but they didn’t bother to help or change the dish. Also I prefer your ala cart menu than your Sunday roast.

‘Nuevo tapas’; delicious small plates of food. Great service from a small friendly team. Most tables have a view of the bay. Whilst the food was mouthwatering, it was a shame that the prices were so eye-watering ! Bread, 5 plates & a couple of non/a drinks: £122. A great place for a special occasion, but next time we lunch in Broadstairs it’ll be back to fish & chips.

I have got to say we ordered 6 dishes, and every one was excellent, and really tasty. Will be going back the next time we visit Broadstairs.

One of the best seafood restaurant in south east.

We were recommended to to go here & it didn't disappoint. Very friendly staff, couldn't do enough for you (Esp. Liz from Kent). The menu is based around small & large plates which are ideal for sharing. We (being gluttons) had oysters, then shared another 6 dishes. It's a bit pricey (but you know that before you go in!) and good food is worth paying for.

Very good food, reasonable service, but prices very high for really small portions. Board menu made no mention of 12.5% "optional" service charge on top of already high prices.

This place didn’t disappoint. Thank You Alice, effortless FOH. Sarah & Aaron, food was outstanding. Flourless in every way.

The food here is wonderful and I can understand the price as its clear a lot of thought and effort goes into the food. The only thing I feel is unreasonable is the price of their mocktail. £10 for a non alcoholic cocktail is extortionate.

The restaurant is in a lovely location by the sea, and the staff are friendly and attentive. It got chilly at times because the door was open to let out smoke from the kitchen, there was also a lot of food smells. The food was disappointing. I love the idea of small plates, but tiny plates are not what we were expecting, especially at the prices! I am sorry to say it is not good value for money and we wouldn't go back nor would we recommend going.

Fantastic seafood meal on a sunny May Bank Holiday. Super friendly service and relaxed vibe. The interior is really well decorated and we spent many happy hours here making our way through the menu and drinking some great wine. Would highly recommend!

Lovely experience. They were welcoming and have so much pride in what they do. The food was superb. The wine list includes so many excellent English wines. We were blown away by the layered potato dish. The service and attentiveness was a real treat. It’s also a lovely location and dog friendly!

Excellent but to little portions considering prices

Incredible meal from start to finish. Amazing food, attentive service & a buzzy atmosphere - can't recommend this place enough! Will definitely be back.

Enjoyed a great sunday lunch today, roast beef and all the trimmings. Starter of the prawn ceviche was outstanding. The chocolate mouse was delicious. Presentation of the food was creative, original and inspired. Reasonable portions. Stylish decor and lovely ambience. Service was second to none. Fabulous location across the road from the beach, which is perfect for an after lunch stroll. Highly recommended and we will go back.

I was expecting better. I'm disappointed. A bit expensive and not enough in the plate. 12 pounds for 2 prawns, 4 pounds for one oyster. The veggie roast was swede. What an idea !!! At least the food was good but i'm still underwhelmed.

Probably caught this place on a bad night, ran out of bread, ran out of wine, staff friendly but seemed like they’d had a long hard day, oysters were delicious. Not the sort of place you should visit if you have a healthy appetite as the small plates are small! Much prefer the Jetty or Samworth & Me for value for money.

We were recommended this place by friends. The staff could not be more lovely and accommodating. I annoyingly wasn’t feeling well and they did everything to make me comfortable for a special evening we had booked. The food is incredible. Beautiful interior. Amazing staff. Thank you :)

Entirely underwhelming..not eating would have been more satisfying..never said or felt that before. The flagging staff were amazing... positive yet aware of what they were bringing to the table. I think the owner was there..a rotund,beefy bearded guy dressed as a chef..doubt he knew where the kitchen was or what it was for..youngsters cooking and serving up the fare at around the minimum wage. The highlight was the bread...but they ran out of it.. it's a small plates establishment..and that's being generous..the £16 paella saucer of tastelessness took gold..at least it was not offensive to taste buds. What followed was a late night highlight in a local pub..a Boy George tribute followed by a gourmet dirty doner courtesy of Queens Kebab in Ramsgate. Kebbles or The Jetty are the places I'd recommend in Broadstairs for good grub.

Brilliant food. Really top quality and well worth paying a bit extra. Service, atmosphere all perfect.

Best quality food in Broadstairs and not too expensive. We really enjoyed this place and would go again without hesitation

Was good! Nice venue & service was friendly. Food was decent on a whole! Only real disappointment was the potted shrimp. Patatas bravas amazing along with the Bream & Pork.

We visited on a Sunday and we had the roast with vegetables. The meat was very good and the vegetables very tasty, overall an excellent roast. We had to wait and they offered us a glass of sparkling wine, a very nice gesture. Great service...

Had the most fabulous Sunday lunch. Starters great. Roast beef great and the puddings amazing. Served by really helpful and friendly staff.

Having been here a lot before the change to small plates I’ve got to say how disappointed I was. To get one courgette flower as a tapas for £7.50 was very expensive and not sure how you can share these between a table. The food...

The food and service were very good indeed. We took our 2 children (4 &19 months )they did everything that they could to accommodate their eating needs. Only thing that I was not overly happy about was I booked though a website called Remy which did not make it clear that Wyatt and Jones only serves roasts as a main course on a Sunday (website says roasts served on Sunday not only roasts served on Sunday)which as a fish lover and seeing the pictures of the fish dishes on the website I felt a little cheated. As I said the management and waiting team made up for the disappointment by being amazing all round.

Very lucky to get a table for lunch today and what an amazing lunch it was. The feel of the restaurant is contemporary and laid back. The music is chilled out and adds to the relaxed atmosphere. The open kitchen is great and it's a...

The food here is excellent, using absolutely top quality ingredients and prepared to perfection. It's a small plates sort of place, they recommend choosing around 3 per person, and each will be served as soon as it's ready. I found each dish to be perfectly balanced with herbs, garnishes and dressings, and it was nice to concentrate on each plate one at a time. The service was excellent. It's a small restaurant and booking is essential. In terms of downsides, it is quite expensive. Each dish costs approximately £8-£25, and I'd say for a decent evening meal you're looking at about £60 per person with a drink or two. The nature of the menu is also a little short on carbs, and the food can be quite rich.

Great atmosphere with wonderful host. Very attentive to our allergy requirements and helpful with selections and adaptions to the menu. All the dishes were beautifully presented and full of flavour. Dog friendly and welcoming, we were able to book a dog friendly table.

Utterly superb food with exceptional service in a beautiful space. Wish we’d taken photos of the food but it was too delicious to let it sit on our plates for even a second. Dog friendly and very kind to our slightly odd doggo.

Wonderful food, lovely staff and good value. Great view from the window and looking forward to returning.

Beautiful food and incredibly attentive and friendly staff. We visited on a Friday lunch time with our little one and the staff went out of their way to find us the best table for us. All the food was delicious but would specifically recommend: -...

Absolutely loved Wyatt and Jones, what a local gem. The team is so friendly and attentive, great choice of drinks (carefully curated wine list - including many local options), really interesting and delicious small plates with lots of veggie options as well. Everything is carefully, sustainably sourced. Thank you so much for a wonderful evening, we can’t wait to be back!

Excellent Sunday lunch with several twists. Great service.

Cosy lunch, delicious small plates and desserts.

Really like the concept of small plates. Restaurant recommends 5-6 plates between two people and it’s perfect amount to share. Sourdough bread is fantastic and really compliments some of the dishes. Our bread came with butter and salt, absolutely delicious. Jersey Rock Oysters - fresh,...

Really like the concept of small plates. Restaurant recommends 5-6 plates between two people and it’s perfect amount to share. Sourdough bread is fantastic and really compliments some of the dishes. Our bread came with butter and salt, absolutely delicious. Jersey Rock Oysters - fresh, clean and huge. I have never seen oysters that huge. My partner really enjoyed them. Scarlet prawn ceviche, garlic chilli, Kentish rateseed oil - one of the best plates we ordered. The prawn is tender and well seasoned. The crispy garlic and chilli just heavenly delicious and goes soo well with the sourdough bread. I cleaned my whole plate. Courgette flower, goats curd, honey - what a surprise. I have had courgette flower before but this is something else. The filling and crispy flower is just perfect match. Cornish mackerel, tiger prawns, mussels, sobrassada paella - full on flavours, generous with seafood, if anything maybe slightly dry. But it didnt stop us to finish it. UK ex dairy sirloin (medium rare), mushroom xo butter - really nice, tender, well seasoned and cooked stake. (Medium rare is the default way they cook their stake - can’t order any orther way) The whole dinner was very nice, all foods were nicely seasoned, well cooked from fresh produce and delicious. Atmosphere in the restaurant was lovely. It’s rather small and busy restaurant, so little tip is to turn up on time not earlier.

Amazing food & service. You can’t leave without ordering the bravas & the bbq broccoli

An impromptu bike ride led the two of us here, and I am very glad we did. The staff was fantastic and the atmosphere was spot on, but the food, now that is in a league of its own. We both had roast pork, and every bite was a delight, the mixture of flavours all complemented each other. Same with the pudding. If you haven't been, I urge you to go immediately. We will be back and showing this place off to friends and family

Excellent dog friendly restaurant with amazing food! Last minute day trip to Broadstairs on a sunny Sunday and with some slots available managed to book a table. Sunday roast with a difference, and the cheesiest cauliflower dish ever!! 2nd visit and we will be back!

THE BEST FOOD AROUND! If you’re in the area you MUST visit Wyatt and Jones. Their staff are delightful and the food is incredible - even if you’re unfamiliar with something, don’t be afraid to give it a shot. We had the most incredible dish that was actually a kind of local turnip, and everything was amazing. The view and location is also stunning, very close to the beach. The chef was great with food allergies and made a gluten and dairy free menu just for me.

First visit highly recommended. Staff, food and venue all a very high standard. No one dish stood out as they were all great. Great for a special occasion.

Highly recommended. First visit and we were impressed with the staff, food and ambience. Great for a special occasion or lucky like we were to be gifted a birthday voucher by family. No stand out dish as they were all great.

THIEVES - As a local resident, I have supported this restaurant on numerous occasions and was due to eat there again in December 2022 with my wife. We had a £75 voucher for Wyatt & Jones bought for us by a family member and we were going to use this as part payment towards our evening. However, on the day leading up to our reservation, my Dad was taken seriously ill and was rushed into Medway Hospital, where sadly, he’s remained ever since. The voucher was due to expire, so I attempted to contact the restaurant directly by telephone to explain the situation. This wasn’t possible as they never answered the phone or provided a way of leaving a voice message. I therefore cancelled the booking in the method the restaurant suggested, to avoid losing our £50 deposit. I spent the next week or so focusing on visiting my Dad in hospital, but tried multiple times during this period and the following weeks to contact the restaurant to ask them if they would be willing to extend the expiry date, even just into January, due to the unforeseen circumstances of our cancellation. After about 20 phone calls and a several ignored emails, I finally got this response: “Unfortunately we are unable to redeem expired vouchers or extend vouchers beyond the 12 month period after their purchase date. This is a standard across the industry for vouchers but also after the expired period we are unable to enter the voucher codes due to expiration. My apologies. Jan Wyatt.” I was completely taken back by her response, as I’m well aware that Wyatt & Jones is a family run business and they could easily have shown sympathy and offered us a goodwill gesture, at least. There was no mention of my Dad’s ill health in her email, it was cold, selfish and uncaring. She says that it’s standard across the industry for vouchers not to be extended beyond their expiry date, but this is plainly a lie and I for one have had a hotel voucher and a restaurant voucher extended well past their initial expiry dates and this has become common practice since the pandemic. I cannot understand why Wyatt & Jones would lower themselves to “steal” that £75, which is basically what they’ve done. That voucher was bought and paid for by somebody dear to us in our family and we cannot bring ourselves to tell them what has happened. Wyatt & Jones clearly needs training as to how to treat their customers. This email, which you receive automatically after any correspondence you send them, very much sets the tone for the way they manage their business: “If you wish to bring a dog you can now book via our website, we have three options that are dog friendly, if you can not see a button for a dog friendly table they are all fully booked. Dogs will only be accepted if they are booked on the dog friendly tables. WE DO NOT ACCEPT CANCELLATIONS VIA EMAIL DUE TO THE EMAIL NOT BEING MONITORED 24 HRS A DAY. WE DO NOT TAKE BOOKINGS FOR MORE THAN 4 PEOPLE. MULTIPLE BOOKINGS FOR ONE PARTY WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED. CHILDREN AND ADULTS MUST BE INCLUDED IN THE BOOKING. WE DO NOT ACCEPT PRAMS AND PUSHCHAIRS AND DO NOT HAVE HIGHCHAIRS AVAILABLE.” I will NEVER step foot in this restaurant again and would kindly ask anybody reading this review to stay away too.

Wonderful food and great wines, super friendly owner and charming team to look after you too. 👏👏

We had a really exceptional Sunday roast here at the weekend, every element was cooked and seasoned to perfection. Service is very good and friendly. We've also enjoyed the main menu and will absolutely be back soon.

Very nice interior with a cozy feel and sea view. The staff were all exceptionally friendly and helpful. The food was of a tapas style and came out as and when ready, irrespective of what else was on the table. Portions vary between minuscule (the...

Great food, particularly the layered potato and chocolate mousse we had for dessert. The service was also faultless.

Such wonderful staff, carefully curated wine and food. Love it.

First time back recently and enjoyed the new approach of smaller sharing plates. Food was great with lots of interesting dishes. Big on local too

I was taken by my mum Ella and the food was amazing!

Amazing amazing amazing! We come back every time we’re in the area. Such fab food, service and setting

Food was eat able. Just couldn't understand what we were eating,😂. This style of food is Not for everyone. But, yes, worth trying it out. Service was good.

Unbelievable food and first class service, especially Henry would highly recommend beyond all doubt one of the best

Michelin level food - incredible plate to plate

Awesome Sunday Roast - beautiful flavoursome produce cooked to perfection served by friendly and attentive staff team. Would recommend & will definitely return soon.

What a gem of a place. Each dish was unique in its own way, cozy setting and excellent service. I would give more stars if I could

What a wonderful meal. The restaurant, located close to the harbour, looks great and definitely invites you in (although you will need to book - even in November it was full). The menu consists of several small plates which are served when they are ready...

Fantastic restaurant with some of the best food we’ve had in years - well worth a trip out of London. More than happy to adapt the menu to create incredible vegan options and happy to let us bring our little dog along.

Food cooked to perfection paired with amazing service. Support this local business and book a table. You will not regret it!

Happened upon this place while walking the coast path , after a Sunday lunch and they managed to squeeze us in later in the afternoon and I’m very glad they did . Really very impressed with the whole operation , great decor with sea views...

We had a stand out meal here. Courgette in flowers stuffed with goats cheese and the layered fried potatoes were amazing and deserts to die for. Will be back

One of our favourite places. Now offering small plates rather than dinners but this is exciting because now you can try as much of the menu as you like :)

Everything perfect - great atmosphere, friendly welcome and all delicious!

Excellently balanced sharing plates menu. Ingredients and construction of each dish exceptional. Wine list also very impressive, virtually all by the glass and I was really pleased to try some Kent wines. Service was friendly, warm and unfussy, in a really lovely location too. Highly...

really didnt want to leave this review as i tried to contact owner who was far to busy to be bothered to listen to my complaint we had lunch there on saturday although very expensive and timing was of as my wifes meal was 5 minutes severed before mine the food tasted nice about a hour after we had eaten we both started to feel ill we both had symptons of food poisoning we were both very ill all night with sickness please be aware that this restaurant is really not bothered if they make you ill or not this matter is now being taken up by trading standards

Great locally sourced seasonal menu. Good selection of wine. Friendly staff, excellent service and great location. Love this dog friendly family run restaurant. Would highly recommend and will be returning the next time I’m at Viking Bay in Broadstairs.

Amazing food! This little restaurant can be found right at the head of the beach and it offers small sharing plates of which most people order 2-3 dishes each. We went here for a birthday lunch and the food was worthy of it being on the Michelin guide. Not quite Michelin stars level but more than enough to be listed. Obviously this does come at a cost though but still, 5 stars for the delicious food.
