The best restaurants in Maidstone South East

I have been a huge fan of KFC since the 70’s and have watched the steady decline in quality and taste over the years. KFC fries have been the worst available for a while, a fact accepted by themselves. They even sent emails announcing their new ‘seasoned fries’. We thought we would give them one last chance. Oh boy, big mistake. Food was fresh and hot so no excuses there. The two piece meal was the worst I’ve ever had. My son had a chicken popcorn meal. Both were tasteless and the fries? well they were just the old fries with some non descript seasoning. Hardly any of them and no flavour whatsoever. We both had an overwhelming taste of grease, so much so that we had to stop and buy something to take the awful taste away……without success. I could still taste it 4 hours later. I’ve now had my last KFC. Unless they return to their original fries, which were great, and the original colonel’s recipe, I won’t be returning. There are far better options out there and when KFC should be upping their game, they are doing the exact opposite.

Shockingly bad experience. Good Points.... The lady behind the counter was nice. Bad Points..... The Café had lots of dirty tables which needed cleaning, The food on display looked dry and unhealthy, and the 3 cappuccino's that we ordered were absolutely awful, very weak coffee and no taste. Avoid this place because you will only leave a negative review. There is such a big footfall in the area and they are missing a trick that they dont have a fantastic dining area for its shoppers. The Café is owned and run by a company called COMPASS but Asda should take all the responsibility because its in their store and reflects badly on ASDA.

Tried for first time. Not good. Chicken in black bean very bland. Shredded chilli beef soggy and not nice. Won't be going back

My family and I went for lunch and the girl serving us was very rude and even suggested we was racist. We ordered 3 cheese and onion bakes and she gave us meat ones I think sausage and bean. We are all vegetarian so when I approached her to ask why we had been given the wrong order she replied this was my mistake I had asked for what she had given me. And maybe I'm Racist because she is a foreigner....I am vegetarian, why would I ask for a meat product?? We won't be going there again. I have never been so upset.. Disgusting service and attitude...

Yo estaba comercial en la ciudad y pasamos un poco de tiempo para matar así que decidimos BHS cafe una prueba para el almuerzo. Solamente he comido aquí una vez antes en esa ocasión elegir una papa de la chaqueta. No fue la mejor, pero me pareció que cosas podrían haber mejorado después de todo este tiempo, así que pensé que me gustaría darle otra oportunidad. Gran error! Pedí una patata, brécol y queso torta del menú comidas calientes a un costo de £5.50 . Me dijeron que me podría haber dos lados con esto y me ofrecieron 'chips' o 'puré' (realmente! El plato ya o patata). Me decidí por guisantes y verduras variadas y pedimos una taza de té Earl Grey, por un costo total de 7,15 libras que es mucho para un almuerzo de calidad sub-estándar. La mayoría de las personas que pedimos comida, etc. estaban pagando en media de £7+. Me senté y comenzaron a comer mi comida pero descubrí que la comida estaba fría, y parecía haber sido colocados en un plato frío. Volví al mostrador para decir que la comida estaba fría, ni siquiera cálido, y ya que estaba en las comidas calientes menú, descripciones comerciales vienen a la mente! El miembro del personal que se ocupó de la reclamación se disculpó y me dijeron que lo 'calor que para mí". Supongo que meter en unos minutos, pero porque el papa, brécol y tarta de queso era en un plato individual, realmente no recogida mucho calor. ¡Qué calor había en las verduras no duró mucho. El miembro del personal que trajo mi re-climatizada comida a mi mesa otra vez se disculpó, pero la expresión de su rostro no estaba en el menos auténtico, sino más bien un aspecto de 'indiferencia'. Me sugirió que tal vez sus fogones no funcionaban adecuadamente. Tengo que decir que este café es una farsa de la industria del servicio de comida. No puedo decidir si es pobres los niveles de personal, la falta de formación/compromiso por parte del personal o complacencia de el personal pero sea lo que sea, es lo que sirven es de los más pobres calidad que he experimentado. Puede ser que sólo así comprar un sándwich frío de los panaderos cercanas y pagar mucho menos. Venga en BHS, dinero, esto podría ser una pequeña mina de oro pero estás dejándoos mucho. I am contactar Compass Group Reino Unido cuyo nombre aparece en el recibo, ya que puede que les interesaría saber cómo mal están siendo representados en esta excusa para un café en Maidstone. NUNCA me dan a esta cafetería mi negocio nuevo.

Amazing chicken balls - they were really crispy and seasoned well. Satay was a little tough but the sauce flavour was amazing.

I have visited this branch of Costa four or five times over the last month or so, and no matter what day or time or weather the front door is always wedged open with a purposely made block of wood. It's a small place, so nowhere to sit to avoid the inevitable cold breeze coming in. Makes me want to drink up quickly and leave.......next visit I may ask for the door to be shut and see what happens. ...and why is it the staff think it's OK to hold personal conversations between themselves whilst serving (and therefore ignoring) me? Visit today they were discussing their driving tests that were due and having 'bets' with each other over passing first. I get more attentive and professional service from a greasy spoon than I do in here where I'm paying 4 quid a cup!!

Shocking service here yet again, they cannot handle more than 2 customers. Food took an hour and cold, bar service took 20 minnutes a round... one time they had to change a keg! What a calamity that was, half an hour waiting!

I am beyond furious with the service I received from Pizza Hut. I ordered online and waited a staggering two hours for a delivery that never arrived! Despite numerous attempts to contact them, they either didn’t answer the phone or rudely hung up on me. They took my money without providing any explanation or apology, leaving us with no food on our night shift. This is absolutely unacceptable, especially from an international brand like Pizza Hut. I will never order from them again. Avoid this place at all costs!

Dirty! The floor by the entrance was dirty from mud from plants. Went to the cafe to have a breakfast. Sausage was burnt, bacon and mushrooms undercooked, the only decent thing on the plate was the egg and baked beans. I asked for green tea, but could only supply peppermint tea (in a supermarket!). When leaving we noticed loads of litter around the floor. Not a nice store at all. Won’t be going there again!

Just purchased Lunch have been told by the manager Laura that they do not accept the defence discount card anymore very sad day. Maidstone has been a Military town for many years and sad this company has chosen not to support veterans and serving military personnel.

Awful - Stay Away Rude Staff to Guests- Unhelpful and couldn't careless Overpriced Do not book your Wedding here and if you do - do not bother to complain because you wont get your money back

I don’t normally write reviews but I had too. Our whole family had food poisoning from this truck, not only was it unsanitary, the staff were rude and it’s the worst food experience I’ve ever had myself my wife and my three children were ill for days… do not eat from this truck it will be at your peril
