The best restaurants serving Other cuisines food in North Downs Maidstone South East

Lovely little community pub, had tea and very very nice cake, staff were great and a credit to the pub and village. Highly recommend and can't wait to come back and try the food which looked amazing

My wife and I had a superb evening meal here. Top notch service, lovely setting, and the food was absolutely excellent. I would definitely book as (even on a Wednesday evening) it was busy.

Didn't eat, just a pint with old friends I had not seen for decades. The place now has inside toilets but it's otherwise very much as I remember it. A proper old village pub with a warm welcome. Must try the restaurant some time. The walls are decorated with old clocks and memorabilia, which are for sale.

Just came back from a Halloween party at The Hook and Hatchet in Hucking. Our kids, aged between seven and ten, had an amazing time. We booked dinner, and the party started at five with a high-quality disco and games for the kids. They gave our kids a party bag on arrival, which was a really nice touch, and the atmosphere was fantastic. The party games were brilliant. I would highly recommend this evening to anyone with kids who enjoy Halloween parties! Plenty of candy was given out throughout the evening, and even some at the bar. It’s great to see a pub host such a fun event for kids. At 8 o’clock, it turned into an adult Halloween party. We also come here often for breakfast on the weekends. It’s one of the best breakfasts I’ve ever had, offering great value for money and wonderful surroundings. If you have a dog, it’s completely dog-friendly, with great walks on your doorstep in the estate. I can’t recommend this place highly enough. Well done, guys!

After reading good reviews, gave this pub a try! Booked a table, in case it was busy. We were the only diners, they'd set us a table with a candle which was sweet! No wine menu, but wine offered was good, cold and fair price. Food took a while, but was lovely and tasty at a good price. Staff very friendly. A very 'locals' pub, would visit again if in the area.

Really happy with this choice in Maidstone. Quaint pub feel with upscale menu and wonderful bar and service. Fireplace; lots of ambience. Thanks for your very good service. Oh! Want surf and turf? Order in advance if you can for Thermidor Thursdays! It worked out for us which we were happy about. The menu can change and they explain that on their website. They also serve local winery; Balfour Wines, which were lovely (try a flight!). Husband was very happy with his Guinness. Great local spot.

Awful coffee. It was undrinkable so we returned 3 full cups (either burnt beans or a chemical taint in the water) and just got shrugs from the staff. Also. Also very expensive - you’d be better off visiting McDonald’s which is saying something!
