The best restaurants in Watling Swale South East

Their mixed salad/pickles bento box (available at Macknade) is a tasty and healthy delight!

Thought this place was going to close, but it didn’t. As good as our last visit a while ago. Food from the garden and an excellent team means another visit in the near future. A nice oasis. ****Unfortunately now closed. Owners have retired.

Best fish and chips in the area

Loved it. .Fabulous navel history on walls . Excellent ale selection..

The only good thing are the staff, they were lovely. The food on the other has really deteriorated unfortunately. Very sad indeed, it was once lovely place to go to.

The hotel is pretty new, and service is good. Rooms are nice as always in Premier Inn, restaurant and breakfast also as expected, good. The only thing I don't like is that the windows in the room are not opening. It was cold outside, but didn't have the best night sleep because it was to warm in the room. Tried the airco but didn't work. If the windows were opening, it was 5 out of 5 stars. Fresh air is important in the room.

What a great find! Service was outstanding - really warm welcome as we arrived and a great pub atmosphere. The food lived up to expectations - perfectly cooked, super tasty and a great portion size. And very reasonably priced. Highly recommend, you won't be disappointed.

Fab service, server faith was very helpful, polite and provided brilliant customer service. First class service.

Avoid. This Macknades open air outlet is a disgrace to a fine company. No indication on the menu that the baguettes were sourdough, and the bread was as tough as old boots - unchewable, and uncuttable with the wooden knives provided. Fillings were mean, and the ham no better than a supermarket’s. When we complained, our server offered to get them remade using pizza dough, which l hate, so we refused and asked for a refund. At first, offered a 50% refund “as we had eaten the filling” (in fact, the only edible component). It took a great deal of assertiveness, tenacity, and appeals to the manager that we eventually got a full refund. A really badly trained staff member. This experience is no reflection on the quality of the company’s great produce in general.
