The best restaurants serving British food in Shepway South East

I don't know if I am allergic to fish, but I was on the coach trip today and coming home, I felt very sick and sore throat and hard to swallow now. I'll leave it till tomorrow but I don't feel well.

Classic boozer with a good vibe, lovely garden and hearty food offering.

The food at this pub is excellent, and great value for money. Very friendly staff, so popular you need to book in advance to guarantee a place.

Had a fantastic Sunday roast , very friendly, welcoming staff! Visited with our Basset hound walking group, 16 hounds & 15 owners, was made to feel very welcome, the food was tasty and great value, served by very friendly staff! Will definitely be returning

Great food and friendly staff.good value for money

Busy cafe. We waited for a table and were not disappointed. Food was to a very high standard. BLT sub for me and tuna mayo brown bread sandwich first class. Each was accompanied by a small side salad and tortilla chips.

Wow… this was a little gem… ate on a Friday, and ended up sharing a paté, 2 mains and a blackberry/apple crumble and all for £20. 2 course is £12 on a most days.. Friday is £10!! Every main meal looked amazing, whether on our table or others. it was certainly value for money and we both left very full. I had the chicken and bacon pie. Service was very kind.

I have to say since having my baby, I’ve been here twice, and it’s the most unwelcoming place I’ve felt being a Mum. The first experience, I had to change my baby on the floor of the toilets as there are no baby changing facilities available. (A mat you can place on the floor is kindly leant against the wall of the ladies toilets. That’s the extent of it). When booking with a high chair, there is no mention that there is no designated baby changing facilities. The second time I came I just didn’t bother trying, as I was advised that a table can be moved into the ladies loo if I don’t want to change her on the floor. We were kindly given a high chair as requested. However the type of high chair provided, my daughter is just ever so slightly still too small for (she is 13 months-the straps just don’t hold her in enough, not a fault of the pub, just a generic high chair that we aren’t quite ready for, in some places we’ve been the straps have been secure enough but sadly this one was not). So I decided to get my pushchair in and use that for her to sit and eat in so she’s safely secure. When it came to the attention of the staff that I was going to get the push chair, I have to say I have never been made to feel more of an inconvenience than I was today. Since having my child. I was met with comments “you’re going to get your push chair!?” Like it was a travesty. And then met with an enormous amount of comments, looks and whispers and fussing around me, about how this was going to take up too much room, we’d inconvenience other guests (may I add no one came to sit at the table we were next to at the time for the entirety of our stay!?), there was ample room for someone to sit and not be anywhere near the pram. But instead we had to take all our things and move…right in the doorway!? Where the pram was then right in the way of everyone coming in and out or passing to the main restaurant. I have never been treated so poorly in any establishment since becoming a Mum. It’s played on my mind all day and quite frankly I feel humiliated. I wish I’d known this before coming and I won’t be going again, and I want to as a Mum, let other Mums know. And give the restaurant a chance to accept my feedback and maybe make small changes to be more welcoming to mums with small children. There was another family with a baby in a pram across the way, I don’t think they received the same treatment, but I would stress this is not a baby friendly restaurant at all at the moment. My advice as a mother, is if someone calls to advise of a baby on the booking, advice them that there are no baby facilities, even if you have plans to add it in, it’s not there now and changing a baby on the floor is not acceptable or sanitary, bringing in a table without relevant safety features is equally not acceptable. In addition, be aware that some people may be bringing a pram as well as the need for a high chair. Every mother has a different scenario they bring when going out with their children.

Popped in here for food one Friday lunchtime, Don’t serve food. Shame. Nice atmosphere and lots of people in!

Great food in a charming environment. All for a good cause and v wholesome. I would thoroughly recommend!

The food was decent but the cheeseburger wasn’t as good but the ice cream was really nice all different foods there was I would recommend

We thoroughly enjoyed the honeycomb icecream , it had huge chunks of honeycomb you will never find elsewhere! AND the signature Amaretto flavour is just right, just enough flavour without being too strong. This little shop is perfectly located near the beach, train, fair & car parks. The owners are extremely friendly and helpful. Look forward to our next visit .

We are on holiday and stopped in for some lunch our puppy was crying outside they said he could come in and they gave him a treat nice people

We received a warm welcome as always. A pint of Abbot ale and Rattler cider accompanied a delicious Sunday lunch. There was even a little plate of tasty lunch morsels and bowl of water for our dog. The chef came over for a chat and the barmaid did everything to make sure we were happy. If you haven’t found this gem it’s well worth a visit. You can also visit the grave of E Nesbit, author of The Railway Children, who is buried in the churchyard nearby.

Have visited before and found the food reasonably good. Today however the fish and chips were poor. Cheap grey fish and “homefries” as the Americans would say ie chips with skin on like fried jacket potatoes not chunky chips. Bar lady friendly and obliging. Pretty fairy lights and plenty of dogs too. It is awkward to say anything when one is with friends.
