The best restaurants in Dover South East

Excellent place for a light lunch with a wide choice of savoury dishes, English Rarebit was superb, also puddings and lots of home made cakes,scones, etc.

Ein einzigartiges Cafe mit einer liebevollen Einrichtung und typisch britisch. Wir haben Gebäck und Kuchen Köstlichkeiten genossen und guten Tee getrunken. Wir kommen gerne wieder und können es nur empfehlen 💐

We decided after walking around the town and seafront to visit this cafe for a light snack for lunch. The food here is very good with an excellent menu serving up various dishes . Today we went for sandwiches and a panini , these come with a side salad . Staff are very friendly and the food is good value for money.

Tasty, very nice service. You feel at home when you enter this restaurant. I recommend to everyone.

Fantastic and warm welcome, excellent service with incredible pizzas! Restaurant is literally in front section of a house lit up like a fairytale - cosy and intimate and served with big smiles.

Great atmosphere complete with fab Halloween decorations. Superb menu with some delightful home made additions. Good attention to allergens, strongly recommended if you have any of these. Best of all? Stunning food, even the grandson was happy, rare 😎

Two of us went for a late mid week lunch and had an enjoyable meal. I had the roast veg and brie panini which was very tasty and came with a nice side salad. My husband had the Cajun chicken which came with cauliflower gratin and potatoes. The staff were lovely.

Visited a couple of times recently and numerous times in the 60s to collect Season Tickets! The coffee is excellent and should make an independent close by look to it's laurels and with the local butcher almost opposite showcasing their bacon and sausages in the Panini I had at The Waiting Room, it's a win-win for both businesses. As the toilet gets more than a mention in reviews, it's a shame that it's been allowed to get shabby as a lot of thought (and money?) obviously was behind it, some of the grouting cleverly referencing the East Kent Road Car Company livery: please give it the care it deserves? Nonetheless I wouldn't hesitate to return, or recommend, as the effort to transform this Arts and Crafts gem, at last, was worth the wait. (D'you see what I did there?)

Quite simply. The best omelette I've ever had. Cooked to perfection. Served with chips and a lovely fresh salad. Great staff. Friendly and welcoming. Will definitely be coming back soon.

My husband and I had the most perfect and amazing wedding at The Cider Works in September 2024; it was everything we dreamed of and more. Jodie, Guy and their fantastic team could not have made our day any better. From the first moment we viewed the venue and met Jodie we knew it was the one for us. Everything was relaxed and stress free and the food was outstanding, all of our guests have commented on what a gem of a venue we found. The shepherd huts were so comfortable and the milk for tea/coffee, orange juice and snacks provided were very welcomed. Being able to sit around the fire pit at the end of the night with our loved ones was another lovely addition. We will be returning for dinner very soon. Thank you all for making our wedding day so magical.

Very nice, friendly service, helpful and nothing too much trouble. Homemade quiche, hot sausage rolls, lovely.

I'm a local and I have now had breakfast, lunch, dinner and cocktails at the village kitchen. Quality food and excellent service and it's always been friendly. I'm very pleased to have thus business in our village.

Fabulous little boutique style coffee shop. A great service pre travel but lovely little bites to eat, great coffee etc. Staff always super quick and friendly

Located near the seafront & town centre this is an excellent clean & friendly Community Cafe offering good food at good prices with free internet access.

Superb, cheerful service, delicious (gluten free) homemade cake and coffee/tea at an astoundingly reasonable price. I highly recommend. Food is all cooked on the premises and served in light, airy, welcoming, clean café. Hidden gem.
