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

Lovely cosy pub with friendly service. Food was excellent and no waiting. Waitress was friendly. Would love to go again. The vegetarian option I had was so delicious! The only negative I have isn’t much choice of vegetarian choices 1 on starter and about 2 on main. More choices would be lovely so I can go again.

Lovely historic pub that still retains a lot of centuries old character including cobbled floor and open fire. Plenty of parking and a large garden. Great food, Fantastic atmosphere, Brilliant owners and staff.

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.

Booked for a Sunday lunch with the family on the day and was surprised to receive a table for the 5 of us especially on a Sunday. Firstly the decor is stunning and such a great feeling the staff so upbeat and friendly. Secondly the food especially the Roast dinners was by the far one of the best Roast dinners I’ve had in such a long time everything was fresh and tasted on point. The homemade lemon cheesecake had so much flavour it was melt in the mouth. You have definitely created 5 more long term guests Keep it. Up

Given the reviews we were really looking forward to eating here, expecting hearty , proper pub food. There were 2 other couples in the pub, having drinks only. We got a drink and ordered our food, and waited… and waited. After half an hour I was mystified what the delay was, given nobody else had ordered food. After 50 MINUTES, I was on the verge of leaving when our food finally came. No apology for the delay either. I don’t mind a delay if a pub is busy but there were no other food orders! The food was hugely underwhelming. My fish was very average, small portion with decent chips. Partner’s sausage & mash looked like a microwave meal and he said the sausages were awful. No peas or veg with it, just an unappetising looking bowl of mash, 3 sausage on top, covered in mountains of gravy. A few hours later he had stomach pains and felt sick. The lady who served us was nice. I don’t generally write bad reviews but struggle to say anything good about the experience, especially given making my partner ill and ruining the rest of our day.

The food was well prepared, for the most part, but the portion size was inadequate for the price. We almost considered getting a fast food takeout afterwards. Pork belly was nice, but tiny. The "gnocchi" was nothing like gnocchi that we knew, it was more like mashed potatoes little cylinders (4 of them!). Disappointing, as this was a reunion dinner with an old friend.

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!
