The best restaurants in Sandwich Dover South East

Uncomfortable chairs, tables too close together, dogs allowed to sit on seats, tables not cleaned the whole time we were there, floor absolutely filthy and waitresses stroking dogs then going behind the counter to carry on serving without washing their hands. Totally unhygienic and unacceptable. Definitely will not be returning.

We had breakfast at this lovely cafe. The food was lovely and was served with a smile. I would definitely recommend this cafe for breakfast and coffee.

Very sad to say that our experience of papa’s tonight was appalling. My 84 year old mother went in to order, she was snapped at because she couldn’t hear, she was tutted and commented at in a rude way because she adjusted her face covering, we were made to wait in the smelly alley way for the food , and when I asked if there were any napkins I was told “no” No explanation just a curt “no” Won’t be going back there again there is no excuse for rudeness !

What an absolute gem of a place. Ice cream and milk shakes superb. They also offer a very reasonable range of hot and tasty food. There is NO COMPETITION for hot food, at this price anywhere else in Sandwich.

Friendly and efficient staff, interesting food and drink menu with an Italian vibe. The cocktails are great! Love the wooden shelving, mirrors and glass decor, based on the original shop decor but elevated.

Wandered in here planning to grab a coffee and was so impressed by the menu and service we stayed for dinner. Superb smashed burgers but the rest of the menu offered enough choice to satisfy everyone and yet was limited enough for the chefs to do everything really, really well. Offered gluten-free bun. Really friendly and helpful service; superb food.

Very good food . Though 'Tapas' it was definitely European , service was good , We had : Falafels , Chicken Skewers , Fish Croquetas, and the Merguez sausage. Could not fault any of them

Top notch haddock and chips. Generous portions even for the ‘small’ option

We came here from Margate on account of the good reviews and unfortunately were very disappointed. We had three dishes, a naan and some (lukewarm) rice. The food was incredibly bland. The prawn madras had no flavour, the sag aloo was a flavourless green mush and the kadai paneer had flavourless boiled paneer and uncooked hard chunks of pepper. We struggled to finish the dishes and I had stomach pains for two days afterwards. A real shame as the restaurant itself has a lovely atmosphere but sadly we would not recommend.

Came here at the weekend as a small group and we had a fabulous meal. From the meet and greet, to the host, the service and the food, everything was brilliant. Food wise, we all had different things and everyone ate everything that was on their plates. Really tasty, piping hot and well presented. Totally recommend, from a romantic dinner for 2 through to groups, great place to go. Totally recommend and we will certainly be back.

Superb Sunday lunch . Set in a quirky bar , with the most friendliest chap behind the bar . We were promptly served and food order taken . Wow , what a treat! Every veg was on my plate plus sides dishes of cauliflower cheese and red cabbage and an extra jug of gravy . All the elements had been thought about and flavoured enough not to overpower . Homemade yorkie too ! All well presented. Probably the best ‘out ‘ roast dinner I’ve had in long time . Defo be back . Thank you

A wonderful Italian restaurant with a wide range of options and menus.

Top food and service. It's a win win

Great breakfast had by all as usual, been twice recently and both times food and drinks great! Latest visit was a large booking of 14 of us from babies to older adults and everyone had a great time and enjoyed their food and drinks. Definitely recommend booking in advance as gets booked up at the weekends

Noticed this bijou shop as we were attracted initially by the Groovy illuminated sign in the window advertising cloths and coffee/tea. What a surprise! We were greeted warmly by a young lady behind the counter. The main surprise was it was incredibly small, 2 individual chairs, a 2 seater retro cloth settee and an additional small seating area immediately under the counter in front of the display of cakes (not ideal) customers would literally be sitting virtually upon each other although we were the only customers in attendance at that moment in time. We had tea and 2 rather small cakes and were charged over £12! To summarise, whilst the young lady serving was friendly she fell short on what pricing of the cloths and various items for sale were if not tagged and also was rather naive in knowledge about the local town area. Overall the experience was different and the products for sale were interesting albeit scant we would not choose to return over other more spacious and better value venues locally.
