The best restaurants serving British food in Sevenoaks South East

Dropped in on Sunday for a late lunch. Obviously busy but we were lucky to get a table for 2 and we were made to feel very welcome by the lady who seemed to be managing the restaurant that day. We ordered 2 roast chicken dinners, a small wine and a pint. £59 including service. I’m glad the service gets added on. We are generous anyway but nice to know nobody is getting away with being mean. Oli who served us was great. Very pleasant. Oli and the lady both asked if all was well With our meals. The portions were plentiful! Massive Yorkshire, delish red cabbage, I think a swede/carrot mash, cauliflower cheese. Really nice chicken breast rather than a cheap half chicken places serve. Stuffing. If that doesn’t fill you up you over eat 😂. 3 potatoes, my husband had to finish one of mine. Too full for desert. Really lovely place. A big family meal going on, seems ideal for that. A big garden. We got a space in the car park. Wish I could remember the lady’s name, she was really friendly and professional, as was Oli. Other people visiting were a nice crowd, well behaved kids etc. which you can guarantee but made for a really lovely visit after a walk at Chiddingstone

Waitress Paula was lovely...food was a bit of a wait due to popularity . Our Waitress was very attentive

Went here for a meal on Friday. Ordered our drinks and our food to be told it would be about 20 minutes. 45 minutes later another drink ordered, still waiting and finally one of the staff apologises for the delay and assures it will be no more than 20 minutes. Half an hour later, staff informed us that ‘chef’ is STILL stuck on M25 and there will be a further wait for food as there are a lot of takeaways going out of the kitchen! Why take our order if there’s no Thai chef? Why not inform customers BEFORE they hand over their money and buy 4 drinks in a below average social club? Nice bowling Green, not nice enough to make a return visit!

A very good cafe offering the usual very good standard National Trust menu (sandwiches, baked potatoes, other snack meals and cakes (one reservation is, on the cake side, there could more choice for Gluten Free diets)), served by friendly, helpful staff. There's plenty of seating, both inside and outside, and, a new innovation, there is now a room where dogs are welcome. A good place to drop into when you are walking round Chartwell.

Great food delivered in a fine dining room, Breakfast menu was a little light on the number of dishes and to be honest paying £15 for an English breakfast was very expensive. We therefore expected a breakfast of high quality so we wouldn't feel hungry. Sadly the food was lovely but wasn't enough to salve our appetite. Very disappointed.

Would be 4 star if ony they sold croissants to go with coffee. We'll try again in a few weeks to see if they've started selling them. If not we' ll go elsewhere.

Visited on a Friday morning and was struck by the friendliness of the team. Great location with lovely view across countryside.

We used to live in the village for many years and it seemed fitting to arrange our mothers wake at the pub we used to pop into for drinks or food over the years. Staff were so friendly and attentive, food was great and even had some left over! We were lucky to have amazing weather and we enjoyed all sitting outside in the garden where there was plenty of seating to seat 50 plus people. Highly recommend

Unfortunately the experience was not great, had to wait 20 mins for a pre booked table, another 20 mins for drinks to arrive. The waitress (joe) was rather rude and uncomfortable, seemed like she could not wait for us to leave. Rushing us to pay by blaming down the bill and huffing and puffing. A party member had a hair in her food and the waitress (joe) refused her to get a new meal. Unbelievable experiences from toby carvery. Will not be returning any time soon. Total shame as its our favourite toby carvery. However the food was fresh and hot, the gentleman over the food counter was very helpful and friendly. Parking spaces were available and accessible for all users.

We're booked at the hotel on a spa break and dinner was part of the package. Have just finished a really lovely meal at Genevieve's restaurant. Food was great - had the lamb shoulder and my daughter had the beef rendang, both were delicious, and really generous portions. We were served by Amy R, who did an excellent job and was really friendly and helpful. Would definitely come back.

Ended up sharing 3 finger sandwiches and a sausage roll (split into 3) between the two of us. This trip and afternoon tea was booked as a special treat but left me feeling embarrassed as we were dividing miniature cakes into two! The castle and gardens are indeed amazing but the afternoon tea was massive disappointment. For about £45 for two people this was a waste of money and should have asked for a refund. I would suggest going to the coffee shop instead.

This cafe goes really down the hill. I always love going there as food was tasty but from last year food is not great. 11.45am was no pizzas or anything really. No side salad ( in the beagining salad was sooo good but after they cut tomatoes and puting cucumbers and keep it all mix up! Is disgusting. , no onion rings, no pizzas,... Comeback at 12.20 only 2 pizzas... food gies down and prices go up. No wonder why is always empty.
