The best restaurants serving British food in Dover South East

Lady working there 23.8 at night is a nightmare. Is lack of people to work that bad? She is just acting like it was a punishment to work there.

We happened on this place for breakfast on a Thursday morning. We had wanted to go somewhere else, but hadn't booked. It was big and deserted at 10am. We had two standard full English and a bacon buttie and a sausage sandwich and a hot chocolate and a latte. Everything was nice and the breakfasts were a sensible size. The food arrived fairly quickly.

Food was delivered. My son found a long grey hair in his battered sausage underneath the batter. The food was awful normally ok. We phoned the take away to speak to someone they didn't care less about it. Just said ok bye. NEVER use them again...now both kids are complaining of stomach pains and visited toilet..

We decided to go here for coffee and cake on our way home. It is clear millions of pounds has been spent on the Battle of Britain Memorial Flight Visitor Centre, and it is in a stunning location with fabulous sea views. It was a beautiful warm sunny day in the school Summer holidays, and should have been full, but I can see why no one would want to return to the Cockpit Cafe, given the dismal range of cheap bought in cakes they had on offer. There were 3 full cakes on display, 2 were gluten free and 1 was vegan, the plastic wrapped Bakewell tarts were also gluten free. Now given that this probably represents probably less than 5-10% of the population, it begs the question why these were the only cakes on offer? There were 3 staff behind the counter who seemed to have nothing much to do, why not bake a couple of fresh cakes and some scones every day, then the place might become more popular and get repeat visitors. Ask each customer if they would choose vegan or gluten free options to give them an idea of how in demand they actually are. The coffee was also very poor, a definite non repeat, though we did enjoy wondering around the Battle of Memorial Flight grounds in the sunshine.

Absolutely disgusting behaviour from staff owner/manager completely avoid this place they are scammers they say they have deals on and then try and charge you full price. Please avoid please please please avoid
