The best restaurants in Canterbury South East

I had battered fish and chips with mushy peas and tartare sauce. The components were distinctly average and no better or worse than your average chippy. The portion of fish was probably the smallest I have ever been served and, despite the up market location, a rip off at £25. On the plus side, the staff were very pleasant.

Chloe-Marie was very professional and helpful. 5 stars to Chloe!

Nice place good atmosphere food and drink what more could you ask for

What a treat!! Can’t wait to come back!!!

We all had a nice meal, a nice environment and a great atmosphere. Staff were spot on.

We visited friends in Whitstable and decided to go for a meal. We did book a table. The staff were very accommodating and attentive. We ordered our meals and they arrived hot and steaming. Didn't have to wait too long. The food was exceptional. The restaurant is only small and was very clean. We can't fault this little gem.

Lovely pub in a great location. Standard shepherd neame beers on sale. Food was of a good standard.

Nice for a beer, but the food wasn’t great at all … the pizza in particular was probably the worst “restaurant“ pizza I ever had, with (what tasted like) a shop bought crust, totally devoid of any seasoning, and a somewhat stale aftertaste. Have a drink and save your appetite for somewhere else!

Stayed here for the weekend to look at Canterbury cathedral and Christmas market. Beds were good no problem sleeping. Rooms very clean. Staff lovey couldn't do enough for us.

This is my favourite pub. Everyone is so friendly. Always busy at weekends, then usually have a band on either Friday or Saturday. Never any trouble.

Staff very helpful rooms good beds comfy as usual with premier inn will be back again

Madam, madam, madam, it’s delicious! ! ! ! ! My brother and I eat there every week!

We used to enjoy this place thirty years ago, and returned in 2024 to find it's just as magical as we remember. A hidden gem in Whitstable. Great staff, and a lovely range of simple food and drink deliciously made. They don't sell papers and magazines any more, as the 'times' have moved on!

This is one of my fav places to go, there is a fantastic selection of places to eat and some beautiful little shops, where you will get good quality merchandise and friendly staff. If you need a present for your nearest and dearest, this is a good place to start your search as there are plenty of different shops to choose from. All the food here in South Quay is amazing, and today I had the katsu loaded fries from Rad Burger, and I was not disappointed, totally recommend this!

Food is wonderful. The people are so helpful and friendly. Setting is gorgeous. You do need to pre book a table.
