The best restaurants serving Other cuisines food in Aylesford Tonbridge and Malling South East

We held a family wake here. The service and patience of the staff from begining to end was exceptionl. Catering: Exceptional Staff: Exceptional Venue: Exceptional. Easy parking and access for wheel chair users inside and out. Edenwood worked hard to make what was a hard day easy, they took away all the stress. I want the staff to know that their hard work and approach was very much apprtecuiated.

Its a shame because the food is really good, but the rules just get weirder and weirder… they have been limiting times to an hour for a while which ok, its not very big so I understand when its busy, however they insist on telling you this every time you arrive which I find really off putting. Surely a polite notice on the wall (its already written on the menu) is sufficient and then if people have stayed over that time and people are waiting you approach to tell people rather than announcing it before you even say hello. This is now accompanied by telling you which table you can sit on if you are a 2 and not a 4, they want u on the worst table as its easier to access the back tables if 2 people are sat at that table…. Now I asked specifically if I could sit at a back table and I was told no… within seconds of sitting down another 2 arrived and were sat at the very table I requested to sit on. This system is ludicrous as the worst positioned table that they insist you sit on still has 4 chairs around it, so surely it would only have 2 chairs, and you should fill tables on a first come first served basis the last in gets the rubbish table and after that people then either wait for a table or go else where, very bizarre. After the next couple arrived they allowed us move to another table as it was quite awkward, then another couple were told the same as us and walked out (good on them) so actually lost business over it. In the 45 mins we were there (very conscious of not over staying) 2/3 tables were free at all times so the system backfired and lost them custom. It is a shame as I always enjoy the food but I am afraid the customer service takes away from the experience and I will be trying new places instead.

Great cafe with a good selection of food. Two cosy back rooms, one with plenty of toys for children to play with. Friendly staff and pleasant atmosphere. Also outdoor seating a nice children's play area.

Lovely place to eat and drink. Would recommend this place to anyone for a nice meal with the other half or friends.

Fantastic pub great food very welcoming staff lovely to be sitting outside with friends after a long CTC Ride

Being local we thought we'd try for a Sunday lunch. It was excellent, good quality food excellent friendly service and a great atmosphere. Will certainly return!!!! New management has definitely bought this place into a great all round standard. Keep it up!!! Mark

Considering the crazy Xmas rush, staff seem to be handling things smoothly. Service isn't the fastest but order is correct every time which I appreciate. Thank you 😊

I have visited the Friars many times over the years, very rarely do I use the tea room as years ago I had an awful experience with the staff being rude to us there. After what must be 7 years I thought we would try again. Sadly the staff were still rude and disinterested. The food is basic and good, the environment is of course wonderful so it’s such a shame that the staff can’t make that little bit of effort to make someone’s day. This is a place with many visitors after all. Of a team of 4 that I could see, 3 were looking in their phones and the lady that served us could just about be bothered to talk to us. I’ll give it a go in another 7 years maybe 👎🏼
