The best restaurants in Maidstone South East

Another lovely Sunday roast and service by Carol our waitress and the team***** Thank you so much, we will be back again soon for sure :0)

A lot of the sauce had been spilt on the way from all the containers, it was very messy and has stained my worktop but the food was quite good.

Visited on a Friday lunchtime and had excellent service. Good drinks and food. Pub was clean and tidy.

Absolutely fabulous service from Deb's and Joe, Food was marvelous, We'll definitely be back, Highly recommend a visit 👌

Delivery driver was good, friendly and engaging. Deserved a tip.

We went to prezzo yesterday with our 18 month old Grandson. The young man who served us was so nice & nothing was to much trouble. It makes such a change these days to get good service. The young lady sorry I didn’t get either of your names was also lovely. Food was delicious & prompt. Music was fantastic right up our street. We will be back. Thank you.

I ordered a vegan salad ….. so disappointing ….. frugal and totally unimaginative ……. mostly leaves, with a few chunks of tomato, small amount of roasted peppers and onions, and a minimal amount of humus on the side ….. presentation was very poor and a complete lack of a balanced meal …… where were cold salad potatoes, avocado, cucumber, beetroot, couscous …. the options are endless ….. this was not a meal and should not have been charged as such ……

Pret A Manger has been my go-to spot for my daily coffee for a while now, and I can’t recommend it enough! The coffee is always spot on, just how I like it, and the food is always fresh and tasty. But what really makes this place special is the people. The staff are so friendly and always greet you with a smile, which really brightens up my mornings. You can tell the manager has built a great team here because they all work so well together and seem genuinely happy to be there. It’s not just a coffee shop to me—it’s a place where I feel welcomed every day. If you’re looking for a cozy spot with great coffee and even better people, this is it!

Very busy, very efficient, very varied a menu. I happened upon this eatery by chance and very welcome it was too - the food is well cooked and presented and from a big menu. I especially enjoyed the mushrooms, which were chunky-cut. You can barely find a large and comprehensive breakfast for under a tenner these days, but this place [just about] sells one

Staff were excellent. Food not. Mushrooms cold , beans warm , bacon not cooked properly very fatty. Overpriced for what we ate. Would I visit again. No.

First time visitors this evening. I purposely asked names of two people. Kate and reece who between them couldn't do more if they tried!! Both were conscientious and attentive literally the whole night. It was busy yet nothing was too much for either of them! Whatever they are being paid is not enough!!! Thank you both of you xxx

Tasty noodles, rice, chicken toppings for a great value.

Stayed here in one of the bed-and-breakfast rooms… whilst the staff were fabulous, polite and helpful. My room was directly next to the courtyard of the beer garden, and it was soooooo noisy . Yes, I understand it’s a public house but if they are going to offer accommodation, it should be well away from drinking areas. My window was literally 5 m away from the tables outside and everyone was screaming and shouting. Do not stay here if you want a peaceful night sleep.

Just came back from a Halloween party at The Hook and Hatchet in Hucking. Our kids, aged between seven and ten, had an amazing time. We booked dinner, and the party started at five with a high-quality disco and games for the kids. They gave our kids a party bag on arrival, which was a really nice touch, and the atmosphere was fantastic. The party games were brilliant. I would highly recommend this evening to anyone with kids who enjoy Halloween parties! Plenty of candy was given out throughout the evening, and even some at the bar. It’s great to see a pub host such a fun event for kids. At 8 o’clock, it turned into an adult Halloween party. We also come here often for breakfast on the weekends. It’s one of the best breakfasts I’ve ever had, offering great value for money and wonderful surroundings. If you have a dog, it’s completely dog-friendly, with great walks on your doorstep in the estate. I can’t recommend this place highly enough. Well done, guys!

I can’t rate this place highly enough. We went for lunch today with our two young toddlers. The people there were incredibly accommodating to us and even gave an extra portion of ice cream for free to my little ones! The food was very fresh, beautifully cooked, large portions for all. They were attentive, but not in your face (which we appreciate very much). Very kind and overall a lovely atmosphere. We’ve been several times before, but will definitely keep going. Thanks (By the way, lovely fresh and chunky chips! Better than a lot of chippies round here!)
