The best restaurants in Tankerton Canterbury South East

Quite Contrary is my favourite local cafe. Scrumptious cakes and scones baked in the cafe . Today I choose the delicious Chocolate and Orange Cake . Kim and Sue are always polite and cheerful.

Brilliant fresh and tasty bread. Get there early though as they sell out quickly. They also do bacon or sausage baps now for the commute! Epic.

An absolute gem! Wish we’d been sooner as it was the best meal we’ve ever had in Whitstable. The service was faultless. Can’t wait to try the rest of the menu.

I wouldn’t normally write a Google review but the food was so fantastic that I had to. We ordered multiple tapas style dishes and I liked every one so much I wouldn’t have been able to pick a favourite. They flavours are imaginative and the food is well presented. The staff were also very attentive and welcoming. I would definitely recommend Land and sea!

Went. Here for the first time last weekend, very impressed with the fish and chips we had freshly cooked and great value would recommend very strongly we sat in there small restaurant great service and very clean. Will definitely be returning soon

Excellent Italian food in a charming restaurant with lovely ambiance. Attentive service, delicious dishes, good portions and good value. Easy parking. Perfect!

We had another fab brunch at the cafe. Top breakfast, the best in Whitstable, and a fabulous chicken and bacon salad! Highly recommend this place.

Was in Whitstable for the day and we stumbled across this place for lunch. I had the pulled pork sandwich which came with crisps and salad. The pork was tasty and the bread was lovely! I also did a takeaway with the orange and chocolate cake, that was amazing! I wish I lived nearer so that I could go back again!

I know it’s just a minute away from the sea front and does not have a sea view, but if you want to get a great cup of tea or coffee in a real tea cup with a saucer, (unlike M&S), and a piece of cake in perfect surroundings then this has to be the place. A clean, modern, niche cafe with inside and outside seating and right next to Tankertons lovely selection of independent shops.

My review is for a takeaway. We have a Chinese from the China chef about once a month, sometimes there is a longer gap, especially after I’ve been disappointed by what we received. It’s a shame because it’s only the little things that let this place down, last night it was the chips they were all brown, not normal chip coloured. They seem to have been re-cooked, The noodles and ribs that my husband gets from here all the time are excellent, but I am a curry person and I have given up on the chicken curry because it’s basically chicken in a curry flavoured water. The sauce is not thick enough. Oddly enough, if you buy a pot of curry sauce, it is thick and really nice, it’s just sad they can’t do the same thing for a curry. So it looks like they’ll be a gap before we buy another one from here. Such a shame, because their delivery is always on time and their delivery people are excellent.

No way to communicate with restaurant when ordering apart from that decent place

My girlfriend reported that her ice cream was excellent, and she knows her ice creams!

Lunch was fabulous. Sorry he's leaving for Spain.

What a surprising little cafe, it shares its space with curio shop “Polkadot”. Great welcome, space to sit amongst the curios. We had hot chocolate and a latte together with a toasted tea cake. Whilst relaxing we browsed the items around us, and found a couple of little “stocking fillers” for Christmas Well worth a visit.
