The best restaurants in Shepway South East

Such lovely food yet the service let you down. The lamb was cooked well and fell apart. Naan bread thin, crispy and tasty. Great flavours all round, Sadly we seemed to have been overlooked during our dining. We were offered one drink in the 1 hour and 45 minutes we sat in the restaurant. We also didn’t receive the chef’s complimentary amuse bouches, despite seeing other tables having them. We weren’t offered dessert or coffees either. Upon payment of the bill we did mention the service to the waiter, he said they were understaffed. Such a shame!

Amazing hot dog 🌭 and a really nice person! Recommend to go to the beach front and get it yourself to find out, you won’t regret ☺️

Second time of dining at Sotirios Bar & Restaurant, absolutely first class service from all the serving staff friendly engaging, nothing is to much trouble. We were a table of four, everyone throughly enjoyed the experience the dishes were amazing starting with the seared scallops with coconut and for mains, Kleftico, Roasted Aubergine and Magret Oriental all excellent and beautifully presented. We shall return to try their Sunday roast after seeing and sampling a slice of beef which was kindly offered to us. Can't praise this Restaurant enough!!

Marley’s ambience is that of a hug, warm and welcoming. The food lives up to that promise - cajun-salted corn on the cob done rib-style, lime and chilli squid, succulent tuna steak and the creamiest cheesiest risotto you could ask for. The local beer and wine were delicious, too.

We went to Anna’s tearoom for my friends surprise 30th Birthday. It was fabulous!!!! We had the whole tearooms to ourselves and the staff were so lovely and went over and above to make it extra special for us. Nothing was too much trouble for them and the afternoon tea was beautiful best I’ve had, would definitely recommend this lovely tearoom xxxx

Lovely food well cooked and reasonably priced. Good service and very clean location. Variety of food was very good. Coffee very tasty and lovely and hot.

Popped in with a couple of friends for lunch but had a full English which was absolutely delicious. The guy who’s front of house is also the pastry chef and we tried 5 of his different homemade pastries and very much enjoyed them all. If you’re looking for a Sunday lunch, it’s the wrong place but for breakfast / lunch, it’s excellent. We will definitely pop in again.

After a stroll along the seafront we were ready for something to eat. Chose the mini fish and chip deal as we were planning on going out for dinner that evening! The mini meal was in fact huge- cod, chips and a large curry sauce - all for £8.99 each! Ate it overlooking the sea and it was delicious. Would definitely eat there again if in the area! ( And no, we didn't need dinner that evening!!)

We were cycling on a busy, sunny Saturday and came across this delightful cafe. The staff were warm and welcoming and offered us a secure place to park the bikes so that we could go inside to escape the sun (although there is also outside seating.) There is a good range of all day breakfast and lunch items, all of which are cooked fresh and our avocado, feta and egg on toast was perfect. Lovely coffee and cakes too!

Lovely, friendly staff and great ethos. Fresh, quality ingredients all presented very nicely on the small plates. However, unfortunately we found the food lacking in flavour, it tasted bland and therefore we were rather disappointed with the meal. I wouldn’t return but my other half said he would because of the fresh, local produce & the restaurant’s ethos

Was lovely but not enough snacks would have lik a toasted teacake but not on menu opted for cake it was delicious not too crowded staff friendly and helpful

swagat is a lovely restaurant to enjoy the most amazing food, between us all we tried all different variety from the menu…. And we were not disappointed the aroma from the food no words to describe, it was that good that we ended up ordering food to take back home, (we travelled from London) and Kieran our host was amazing with her lovely bubbly personality, she made sure we were well looked after. Well done to the chefs who cooked these amazing dishes……and let’s not forget about the amazing cocktails, definitely will be coming back especially to unwind from home.

Such a cute and cosy little coffee shop! We were warmly welcomed in by friendly staff and enjoyed delicious cakes and hot chocolate! After cycling all the way to Lydd from Camber sands this was just what we needed!

Fabulous little find, Gluten, Diary Free caterd for. On ordering order, double checked for allergies. I must say go on an empty stomach, plenty of food for you, had to ta takeaway some. Staff attentive, supportive and knowledgable.
