The best restaurants serving Default food in Marden and Yalding Maidstone South East

A must visit when in yalding, the most delicious sandwiches freshly prepared for you, and divine brownies too. Customer service is excellent, friendly and welcoming. A real gem.

Proper social club. Lovely staff and keen prices.

Big child friendly garden . Friendly staff serving excellent real ale and good food

Beautiful food and lovely staff, pods are absolutely stunning and views are to die for, definately will be returning

What a wonderful pub!!! Made to feel welcome by staff and regulars. The food was amazing!! Arrived on Sunday and had Sunday lunch. Portions are huge and food was gorgeous . Had lunch the following day which was equally as tasty. Highly recommend.

Still great food. Tuesday and Sunday are discount nights with multiple dishes, starter, main, bread or rice plus side. Chicken tikka is still a favourite.

Me, my mother in law and my daughter had an absolutely amazing Carvery at The Hop Pole today. A huge portion of lovely food for a great price! We followed up lunch with a few drinks in the beer garden where my daughter thoroughly enjoyed the bouncy castle that they have at the top of the garden. Despite the issues with a burst water main early this morning meaning no running water in Yalding, Nettlestead & surrounding areas, the staff were so efficient with ensuring the pub had plenty of bottled water. And the Carvery was still one of the best I’ve ever had. Everyone was so welcoming and the pub has an amazing atmosphere to it. Would definitely recommend to family & friends! In fact we’ve booked in another table for next Sunday’s Carvery! Thank you to the entire team at The Hop Pole😊

Great service, great food and atmosphere. loved it! The decor and location give it that extra 'difference' - most definitely worth a visit!

We had a lovely Baby Shower at The Old Post Office Coffee House Marden. Delicious afternoon tea and great, helpful team who was very happy to accommodate all of our needs. Thank you again! All the best! Jana

Fantastic home cooked treats both savory and sweet. Coffee amazing and view of the river from your seats. Perfect scenario on summer's day

2024 October Review NEW AND UPDATED Back again at the Stile Bridge, with the previous chef who departed 6 months ago, it has been time to try the new menu again. At a glance the new menu has inspirations from Asian cuisine slashed with British classics. A very good choice for all palates of flavours. To start, the house bread and oils, the Focaccia style bread was delicious , crispy, fluffy and tasteful, most perfect bread you could ask for to start. The lamb meatballs, had an Indian inspired taste coated in crispy panko, I actually thought the additional aioli style sauce was not needed. Next up was the boneless chicken wings which was a let down, with its dry flavour, baseless and bland texture it felt like the wing was absolutely battered and butchered to create this flattened pancaked wing. Mains : Chicken salad - chicken was super juicy and tasteful, with a salad which isn’t drenched in dressing, the perfect amount for a main dish, with expedited pickles which were fab, and well seasoned dish. Pork sirloin, juicy, cooked well rather tender as welland had great accompaniments with it, the jus was flavourful and hit the spot. Scallops, cooked well, fresh, and plenty of spark. Overall the Stile Bridge did not disappoint again, will be back, and loved the service. Truly so far still one of my top recommendations for restaurants in Kent. Best for those who actually have an eye for food and an open palate. NOT for your typical boring clientele. 2023 Review - A MUST TRY hidden Resturant in the country side of Kent Food Quality 4.7/5 Presentation 4.5/5 Price 4.6/5 Service 4.7/5 Atmosphere / Ambiance 4.2/5 Stilebridge offers an South American fusion with British cuisine, utilising fresh and local ingredients of Kent and East Sussex. It is a show stopper of a restaurant to visit if you are in Kent. compared to other restaurants within Kent, which serves typical British classics and other delicate British style dishes it is good to see a pub serving a different variety of food from around the world, being a Michelin guide recommendation, the Stilebridge is certainly a place that is well worth on the Michelin guide. The food I would describe it as light South American heavily infused with British twist, this is definitely done to please the pallets of local clientele within Kent which are known for having less adventurous pallets, but as an individual who thrives on flavour, exoticNess and wonder, this may also be the place for you as it is especially for me it is. The octopus and pork belly was fragrance, light and packed full of simplistic flavours, which hit each flavour on the tongue perfectly. Had a small cake which enhances the flavour of the dish., I would say the octopus is a touch over done when I had it, but the pork belly was cooked perfectly. The lamb rump was cooked to perfection, after talking to the chef, and knowing that it was a dry aged lamb from Romley Marsh? Very well with the potato jus accompanying it very well with its lights and arrogant flavours. I would have liked more of the sweet potato jus upon my dish, the lentils works. Well I would’ve liked a bit more than those as well. The Korean style, Bimbap works well for local clienteles pallets, however, I would have preferred it a lot more crispy rice at the bottom of the bimbap, after discussing it with the chef, who was very polite and friendly, it was understandable why it was done in such a way. The side dishes of the potato, Bravas and the pickled salad was a very nice for the compliment to my main protein dishes. Overall, the Stilebridge is a great restaurant you should visit, as a reviewer, I never eats anywhere five stars restaurant wise, however, with my own personal recommendation, I recommend a rate Stilebridge very highly and would be back again to try the other menu items. I would love to see more South American dishes because it’s hard to find authentic dishes done right utilising British local projects which I highly enjoy. My compliments to the chef. Thank you

Perfect - and such a wide choice on the menu - we will be back (this was our second recent visit anyway)

Usually we love to order from here but lately I have not been enjoying it as much. There seems to be a lot of spice in the onion bhaji and a mild spice in the tikka masala. Saag paneer was not what we expected and again, very spicy. Boyfriend enjoyed his, but did say it tasted different. Not sure if I am disappointed this time around.

We have lived locally for a few years and we have had a take away meal from Zarda Cottage before, but never eaten in house. We did this Saturday and were very impressed with the service and the quality of the meal

Excellent good value full English breakfast
