The best restaurants in Canterbury South East

Great place to stay. Friendly, polite staff. Spacious, relaxing bar/restaurant area. Very comfortable quiet bedroom with all the usual facilities. Large car park. A perfect venue for sightseeing or attending local events. Will definitely stay here again.

Lovely traditional pub serving a good selection of cask ales. Very friendly staff, especially Helen, who served us up a fantastic Sunday roast. As it's my local now, I can comfortably recommend this particular pub to anyone who happens to be in the area and to try out the food as it's the best I've tried in and around Canterbury. Edit...12/07/22. Closed permanently. Oh shit!

Stunning dinner at Wild Goose Canterbury, beautiful tasty small plate style food, excellent service, great cocktails and good wine, a really really enjoyable experience

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!

The food was excellent, especially the butter chicken. The HK waitress was very nice. Good value for money. I recommend this restaurant.

Pure class start to finish, great location, Most friendly team who clearly love what they do, extremly good food not a place but an experience. First time wont be the last. 50th Birthday celebration just perfection. 👌

We found Posillipo on TikTok and it did not disappoint! The food was delicious and the staff were lovely. Definitely recommend if you are in Canterbury for dinner. We had our 5 month old with us and they were very accommodating. There’s enough space for a pram if you have one. Great all round! Xx

I recently attended a Christmas gathering with my work colleagues, and it was truly a night to remember. Dorota’s exceptional service made the evening seamless and enjoyable. She was attentive, professional, and brought a warm, festive spirit to the event. The food was lovely and perfect for the occasion. The live music was the icing on the cake, adding a magical touch to the atmosphere and making the experience all the more special. A huge thank you to Dorota for making our celebration unforgettable! Highly recommend!

We brought a take a way tonight food was hot and excellent. Tried here for first time. Nice staff too. Very pleased 👍

Stop! Not only a gorgeous tearoom, but haunted! A fabulous array of cakes and treats for afternoon tea. Staff are friendly too! Definitely go😊

Have enjoyed the old Ambrette at various venues in the past but I think this is the only survivor post-covid, which is a shame. Went on a 2 for 1 deal but was pleasantly surprised at choice of dishes available, including complimentary items at start and finish. Lovely ambience and attentive waiter was knowledgeable and proactive. Each dish was exquisitely presented and every mouthful had different flavours and textures. A short walk from the high street so little chance of attracting passing trade but definitely well worth a visit..or two!

Excellent freshly prepared seafood meals with homemade bread and a selection of wonderful deserts. Super service with a homely feel. It has become a regular weekly visit. You must go! Book first as its very popular.

The place has a great vibe, great selection of food and drinks. Its our go to place in Canterbury now.

I had a nice dinner there on a Friday night. In the evenings the lights are quite low.
