First time at The Woolpack but it won't be the last! We booked for a family lunch for 9. The food, mains and dessert course, were, without exception, first class! Freshly cooked, ample portions, great flavours. We were served by friendly staff and the atmosphere was very relaxed. We moved into the garden after lunch, only to be very pleasantly surprised at a lovely, well maintained, open, green space with seating areas, crazy golf ( for a minimal clubs hire fee) and climbing frame for the kids...plus a fabulous outdoor pizza place! I can't rate it highly enough. It's a hidden gem and definitely a place to return to! Thankyou Woolpack team! We've had a fantastic English pub experience, best one in a long time and certainly the best pub food!🥰

Went on quiz night and had something to eat there as well . Menu was quite simple , sensible as there was a quiz , we both had scampi and chips ( £12 ) good value and quite tasty . The friend I went with is in a quiz team there so we joined and won the quiz which was nice . Found the quiz enjoyable . It was a little on the warm side in the pub but over all had a good night .

Visited the Royal Oak Sunday for their carvey. As far as carveys go, it was nice. Service was great, no complaints. Was early, so there wasn't much of an atmosphere. Will return to try other options on the menu, they seem to have some real hearty food available.

The first time I've been here in a few years ,it was ok. The food was abit pricey and I wasn't a fan of the chips because they seem like they were cooked in a fryer? (tasted fatty) but were ok . Unfortunately the 2 puddings I wanted to try (my 1st and 2nd choice, not 2 puddings at once) they were out of ,and I'm not a fan of nuts , so I missed out on the brownie . But my friends had it and it looked lovely (if you like nuts), the tart ta tan also looked lovely but I had eaten too much to fit that in by that point. What I didn't realise was the nachos (specials menu) was a sharer ....but me being me , I ate it all to myself . The cocktails looked good too 👌 Plenty of parking, nice outside area and toilets were clean and nice

I recently enjoyed a Christmas menu meal with some friends, and it was a wonderful experience.I was happy with the delicious vegan options on the menu and my friends thoroughly enjoyed their non vegan options. The food was cooked very well. The waitresses were attentive, cheerful, and incredibly helpful, ensuring we all felt welcome and well taken care of even with my requests of extra gravy! Each course arrived quickly at the perfect time, with no rush but a lovely flow to the evening. We all had a fantastic time.
Rating: 4 / 5
All in all, it was a pleasant experience. Food was nicer than expected and reasonably priced. Service was on point, although it was fairly quiet when we went.

Stopped in recently for a midweek meal with my partner and dog. Very friendly team who even fussed Tia (the dog) and brought her a bowl of fresh water. She loves them! The food was fantastic!!! Atmosphere was wonderful and I left with a big smile on my face and a very full tummy. Thank you all so much for a lovely midweek date night. Can't wait to do it again!

What a great place! A wonderful evening spent with friends. Good atmosphere, amazing food and welcoming staff. Duncan the owner is a real character and loves what he does! I would highly recommend the pizza selection, mine was the Hot Thing 🔥 Pizza base made with flour from the local windmill, deep in toppings and wonderful flavour! Live outdoor music made you feel like you were on holiday. Happy 50th Duncan! 🎂🍻🎊

Looking for a pub car park stop over in our 9 meter motorhome after crossing the tunnel, we had passed two that claimed “ample parking” but unaware you must be able to now buy smart car motorhome and not owning one we persevered, only to drop on this absolute gem of a place. Located on a very smart commercial / retail park, with massive parking, dog walks with foul bins, amazing views, the location was second to none. The venue was, as its name suggests dog friendly, the drinks were well selected and very welcome after 3 months in Europe ! The decor was as funky and inventive as it comes, and the street food was delicious. Well done everyone you have got every element correct on what customers expect, see you same time next year
Rating: 5 / 5
A great place to breakdown! Our motorhome starter motor packed in on site. The staff went out of their way to help us and put us in touch with a local mechanic who came out next day and fitted a replacement part to get us underway and onwards to France. It's a great venue for good food and beer and is dog friendly, as the name implies - but the quiz questions are too hard! So close to the tunnel too. Beware - all being well we will be visiting you again in early January 2025 (but we will avoid parking in the bosses parking space) !

Had the most amazing breakfast today, cool decor, good tunes and the staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming! Will definitely be coming back and recommending this place to everyone I know!! Can't wait to try the rest of the menu!

Lovely and lively little pub in the countryside near Ashford. Spent a few hours having a quick lunch and a drink while watching The Rec live. Very good beers (including one specially brewed for the pub), good food (including the icecream) and a big collection of vynil records.

Rating: 5 / 5
What a wonderful restaurant. Kenny and your staff should win awards for such excellent food and superb service. We visited on the first night after a friends recommendation and had a really wonderful meal. My wife left her sunglasses on the table so we returned on the second night we were in Ashford for another wonderful meal. Thank you so much for your service and attention to detail. Please, please support this fantastic establishment. You won't be disappointed, I promise.
Rating: 5 / 5
Brilliant service and amazing quality produce. The lunch set menu is a steal for the quality of food offered here. We were looked after very well and the place was quite clean. The Italian vegetarian options were offered well and enjoyed the lasagne. The wine option by glasses could cover quite a bit more options, that was the only blip. Other than that, everything was fab!
Rating: 5 / 5
Fantastic food and service, great choice. The only drawback is their deserts. Presentation fantastic but expected more from tiramisu ( my favourite desert ever) , it's sort of watery & tasteless. I've tried my hubby's cheesecake and would say the same - not much taste either. Everything else as I said just delicious

Great country pub. Really nice classic pub feel inside and super friendly staff. Great outside seating area and the food is brilliant too. If you’re in the area it’s well worth stopping by.
Rating: 5 / 5
Have been visiting the pub for many years but never reviewed it. A great place to stop for a drink (they brew their own beers), for a quick grab or for a nice meal in their pub area or restaurant area. Their menu changes regularly (while they have a core pub menu), with special tasting events (dishes paired with wines). The field at the back of the pub is perfect for the kids to play football. Overall, one of my favourite places in the area.
Rating: 5 / 5
What a friendly pub, greeted and treated like special guests. Food was delicious, short rib was the best ever eaten. We can't recommend highly enough. And the bonus was being able to park our motorhome overnight, and discovering this is community run, well done community! We'll be back

Set in the Kent countryside, in an idyllic farming village, the beer garden has green views and a picture book river with fish and two crossing footbridges into a paddock style area. Tables are laid out spaciously and there were shaded areas and under cover parts of the patio. Inside the restaurant is decorated to a high standard, with comfortable dining seats and tables dressed with a small from the garden style flower bouquet. There are a few traditional dried hops overhead in one or two places to remind you that you are in the garden of Kent, the once hop centre of the UK. The building is of some age with some low beams, cielings and frames in places. The bar is well stocked with a great variety of beers, lagers and wines, some of which are locally produced. The pub supports the local vineyards and it has a good community feel. The food was exceptional. Really exceptional. Classic food cooked in a way that makes me wish I could eat there every night. Initially put off by the lack of vegetarian options, but found something that worked for my 12 year old and all was good, in fact it was better than good, both children happily cleared their plates and rated the food 10/10. The food was sourced locally. It was full of flavour. Presented appetisingly with space on the plate. It was seasoned well. There wasn't a single issue with the food apart from it being so good that we didn't have room for the mouthwateringly tempting desserts. The customer service was fantastic. It really was a joy to dine there.

The Farrier Arms provided a delightful experience that exceeded all our expectations. A quick call to confirm they were open and dog-friendly turned out to be a fortuitous decision for our evening plans. Upon arrival, we were greeted warmly and immediately felt at home. The Hobgoblin ale and a fine selection of wine were just what we had been waiting for, perfectly complementing the relaxed atmosphere of this charming pub. The addition of two cups of peanuts made for a perfect snack. Sitting in the garden with our three dogs was a serene and enjoyable experience. The garden itself was beautifully maintained, offering a peaceful and welcoming environment for both us and our furry companions. The Farrier Arms is an absolute gem, and it provided the perfect setting for a cosy drink before settling in for the night in our VW campervan. We highly recommend this pub for anyone looking for a friendly, dog-welcoming spot with excellent drinks and a lovely garden to unwind in.

Very busy and well established cafe, all breakfast freshly made. Super friendly staff and great service.
Rating: 5 / 5
Visited the cafe today for some lunch with my family. As soon as we walked in, we were greeted by the lovely girls behind the counter. The cafe was extremely busy and we were made aware there may be a wait for the food, which we were fine about. I feel this is a very well run establishment and well done to to the girls in there for managing the cafe, whilst being so busy - all with smiles on their faces. Food was amazing and fair priced with huge portions! Had my little girl with us and the waitress was very attentive! Will definitely recommend to my friends and family and will most definitely be returning when next in Ashford!

I’m so glad my office moved to Ashford and this is now my fave place for lunch. The food is well prepared and tasty - some of the portions are huge. I always have the eggs royale which are impeccably cooked and the smoked salmon is beautifully flavoured and lean. It also does its own freshly squeezed orange juice, which goes down a treat.

Best cheese scone EVER!! No, really, it was awesome 😍 Good selection of food and drinks, both got and cold Funky decor with mismatched chairs, tables, benches and stools. Massive exposed beams that hint of the history of the building. So cool that dogs are welcomed, especially as people walk across the Downs with humans and dogs alike! Quite a serious member of staff, but attentive

We stopped off in the lovely little Wye after a morning walking on the North down Way. We had afternoon Tea and coffee, with a wedge of chocolate Tiffin in the lovely little Wye coffeeshop & Kitchen which is nicely set on the corner with nearby free parking. We loved it and definitely recommend a visit. Ps The thunder ⚡ and hale stones where a little suprise after walking in sunshine most of the morning

I recently had the pleasure of dining here, and it was an absolute delight. From the moment I walked in, the ambiance set the perfect tone for a memorable dining experience. The menu is a testament to culinary creativity, offering a diverse range of dishes that cater to various palates. Each dish I tried showcased the chef's skill and dedication to using fresh, high-quality ingredients. The service was impeccable, with attentive and friendly staff with Sri Lankan hospitality who made me feel welcomed throughout the evening. They were knowledgeable about the menu, providing helpful recommendations and ensuring a seamless dining experience. As for the food, every dish was a masterpiece of flavours and presentation. The attention to detail was evident, and each bite was a burst of taste that left me craving more. Whether you're looking for a romantic evening, a celebration, or just a fantastic meal, this is the ideal choice in Ashford. I left with a satisfied palate and a desire to return for another culinary adventure. Highly recommended!

I got the best South Indian and Srilankan food here. It's awesome quality and quantity at affordable prices. The only South Indian restaurant I love in Ashford. Especially this Saturday meal that was awesome. Will visit regularly. I think this meal combo is only available on Saturdays. South Indian people and Sri Lankan people should never miss this one.

I had fantastic Samosas that took me back when I was little, good amount of heat, although it's a bit pricey since I paid £7.45 for a little nibble but still gets a good review, I believe this place can stand out! :)

Best place for breakfast in town. The staff are always so welcoming and are ready to serve you as soon as your bum hits the chair. The tea here tastes excellent and I am a big fan of their sausages. They are normal unlike some of the herby ones you get in other places. The food is always piping hot too so you know its fresh. Highly recommend!
