The best restaurants in Longfield, New Barn and Southfleet Dartford South East

The Ship Inn is a fantastic pub with a great atmosphere, excellent food, and consistently good service. The menu is well thought out, with high-quality ingredients and generous portions. The Sunday roast is always a highlight, well-cooked and full of flavour. A recent Mexican night featured a brisket burrito that was particularly impressive—it would be a great addition to the main menu. The service is friendly and efficient, making each visit enjoyable. It’s also dog-friendly, which is a great bonus for those looking to bring their pets along. A well-run pub that’s definitely worth visiting!

Drinking a cappochino and a rock cake. Very clean, service friendly. They were busy making sandwiches etc to other customers. Everything looked delicious.

Just returned from Green Man. Have to say very disappointed. Calamari was probably the worst starter I've ever had, plate of grease basically followed by an overcooked burger. Staff running around like headless chickens. Massively overpriced. Another example of Rip Off Britain. I won't be returning.

We arrived early evening ordered food which was fine at 7.35 we were told kitchen was closed so we were unable to have a dessert website states that kitchen closes at 8pm no worries as none of the party wanted a dessert. Last orders was called at 9 pm what pub closes at 9? We were out for the evening looking at the website it says that the bar closes at 10.30 ! Don’t think we will be going for an evening out at the railway tavern again which is a shame .

Shame it doesn't offer blue light card discount. Toilets were disgusting. Not in a hurry to go back.

We visited today for my husbands birthday. There were 11 of us including our 4 grandchild. The food was good, the staff were great and looked after us very well.

Had a takeaway and it was awful and stone cold the chicken tikka main we had was just plain chicken not an fried onion in site the breads were cold and the curries were boring cold and tasteless they have gone off the boil won’t be back

This place is an expensive joke, had a mixed kebab got 2 bits of burnt chicken 2 slices of donor and a salad so small it's not worth mentioning. Ordered a salad was a tiny box just with cabbage and a whole onion to top it off rubbery chips obviously had been re cooked. Called for half the money back after alot of persuasion got offered extra donor meat the next time I said there won't be a next time. In the end got offered a fiver. Honestly this place is so expensive but not worth it at all

Been here a few times, food always amazing. Just had the Sunday banquet for 2 and their was more than enough food for both of us and was delicious. Service great! 10/10

I’ve been going here 10 years and it’s the best Cafe the food is lovely and the chef is lovely and can’t do enough for you. Service is quick and efficient, the cafe is clean and friendly. I go on my own and always feel comfortable, safe and welcome.

10 of us, including 4 children under 7, went to the Ship Inn for Sunday lunch to celebrate my birthday. The meals were lovely and even though they were very busy, the service was excellent. Would definitely recommend.

Kyla is the best waiter ever! Always here when we need something and lovely and polite ! Really recommended the place !!!!

Having eaten here on previous occasions and been very happy with the food, we were disappointed today. There were 5 of us and 2 people had fish and chips. The chips were cold and the fish poor standard. I had a piece of Frittata with salad.The Frittata was fine but the salad choice was very limited and uninspiring unlike the choice on previous visits. What has gone wrong ?

We’ve always ordered from here and always loved the food but the food was completely inedible, dry and tasted horrendous. We spent a good amount of money for all of it to go in the bin. A real shame. I won’t be ordering from there again.

Expensive, child noisy, screaming. My waffle was not a home made one and not warm. A family place not for quiet chat with Friends.
