The best restaurants serving Brasserie food in Canterbury South East

Called in for the first and last time today, been waiting to get into the town to try them, table just inside the door for 2, went to sit, one of the owners was standing near the table he looked right at us, pulled put a chair from a table near to the one we were going to sit on and block the way to sitting in one of the chairs, we turned and walked out, feeling really uncomfortable.... just hope they make it through the winter when they can't rely on summer trade. !!

Saint Smokey’s BBQ House in Canterbury offers a delicious mix of Caribbean and BBQ cuisine, highlighted by their signature homemade BBQ sauce. The menu features classic dishes like grilled BBQ chicken, chicken stew, jerk chicken, and sides such as rice and peas. Customers consistently praise the friendly, welcoming staff and the relaxed, vibrant atmosphere, which is enhanced by great music. The restaurant has moved to larger premises, allowing for a more spacious dining experience, but it still retains its local, family-run charm . If you’re a fan of bold, smoky flavors and a laid-back environment, Saint Smokey’s is a great choice for a hearty meal.

£30 worth of food left off the order, told to claim a refund through just eat- the customer service is as good as the food, 1 star abysmal. If you want decent BBQ come to my house and I’ll cook for you. You could buy this rubbish in a packet at M&S.

Very friendly staff and amazing food. Simple but really good.

I had the beef brisket for £35, which has no go withs, so added chips and a very small mac and cheese, which came to £45 in total. The brisket was dry, chewy and extremely salty. For £45 in Canterbury I’m expecting a spot on meal, which this was not!

I went here as a second option and was so glad the other restaurant was booked up. The food was amazing. Staff were lovely. Definitely would go here again.
