The best restaurants serving British food in Ashford South East

Went for sunday lunch. The staff were very helpful and friendly, also can say this for the locals. The sunday lunch menu had a good choice of "carvery" style meals plus you could order from the full menu. Enjoyed it so much we are considering a return for an evening meal.

We love this litle place. Nice little ride out from St Marys Bay. I enjoyed the ham salad baguette with chips and salad (proper ham) and a slush cold drink. He had the burger which was really enjoyed. Owners look after their customers and always take the time to have a little chat. Looking forward to another trip there soon.

We thoroughly enjoyed visiting as part of a walk. A stunning pub, with an amazing garden, big fan of the range of events on offer.

Perfect service, perfect food. Lovely pleasant helpful staff. Came in for midday snack and came back next morning for breakfast. Very enjoyable.

The bistro was shut for a while, now they are back and it is worth coming to pay a visit.

Duncan & Claire have a very unique venue here offering a good selection of hot & cold beverages including craft ales plus tasty tucker served daily from the Menu at very reasonable prices. With extensive free parking, the Doghouse has the opportunity to hold several car 'meets' throughout the year, usually for a few hours on a Sunday morning and featuring Owners Clubs such as Porsche; American muscle cars; Classic cars etc. A chance to peruse amazing vehicles, chat to the owners and maybe pop inside for a bacon roll / veg altenative. The Doghouse has an excellent outside 'courtyard' area with many tables, some under cover and with a heater for those cooler summer evenings if needed. Live music can be performed outside too with a great view of the musicians from all tables. Inside, the recent 'knock thru' to the adjoining premises has more than doubled the floorspace with many more tables added plus a cool music stage surrounded by instruments and other music paraphernalia adding to the overall vibe. Music is the beating heart of the Doghouse and live music is offered most days of the week; featuring local, national and several international artists to grace the Doghouse stage! Without doubt the Doghouse offers more live music per week than any other venue in the Ashford area and, from what I understand, the plan is to provide even more in 2025 with a Doghouse Festival or two! Duncan, Claire and the Doghouse team strive to give every visitor a very warm welcome with an excellent level of service and I highly recommend you drop by.

Great pub with lovely food and fair on prices. The staff are what keep you going back as well, all of them are really friendly and personable. We have been a few times, the odd occasion at lunch time and also when the Euro’s were on, the atmosphere was buzzing and even though it was packed you didn't have to wait for more than a minute or two for drinks. Ethan is one staff member we know by name he's always very friendly and chatty, he's a top barman too! Highly recommended pub with gastro pub type menu.

A fantastic Micro Pub. The landlord is very friendly and so are the locals. A good choice of real ales. Well worth a visit

Amazing vegetarian taster menu. One of the best vegetarian meals I have ever eaten, so thank you for exceeding my expectations.

First time visit as a group of 11 on a packed Friday night. Great selection available on the menu, staff friendly and helpful particularly with two food allergies in our group. You get the feeling that nothing is too much trouble for them. Will definitely be back.

The food was delicious, as always, the service was so warm and friendly and the atmosphere perfect for a birthday night out. Really enjoyed it - thank you Boys Hall!

Amazing food Fabulous staff Beautiful garden Myself and my husband had a lovely lunch there this afternoon 💯 recommend

Came to revisit previous colleagues for a cappuccino and a slice of cake made by the talented young kitchen assistant, Catherine, helping out during the holidays!! I was certainly not disappointed with the quality of the cake, perfect and pardon the pun but her cakes are selling like hot cakes!! Everyone in the cafe and shop are always very friendly and had a great time when working there but it was time for me to move on. Great to see some loyal customers too who I hope to see again in my new place of work soon xx

The staff are absolutely amazing and the food is always great

We had a fantastic time The room was lovely and clean the food was brilliant you had different menus to choose from the staff was really kind and friendly nothing was too much trouble for them and the couple who ran it made you welcome from the moment you walked through the door until you left they made you feel like family and we think you get great value for money we are looking forward to visiting the print house inn again.
