Amalis Caffé (Greek Taste)
Amalis Caffe, 23 Lower Bridge St, Canterbury CT1 2LG, UK | Cafe P: 01227 531064
Rating: 4.8 (231) Price Level:
Everything was incredible. If you would like to experience Greek culture this is the perfect place to go to. The pastry and coffee have absolutely no difference of that of Greece. Lovely atmosphere, very chilled out place, service is excellent, extremely friendly people. I would highly recommend.

Literally our favourite place in the whole of Canterbury! We're here at least once a week. If we lived in town we'd be here every single day. The food is amazing, the coffee is perfect and the girls couldn't do enough for you. Please support a local family business

What a treat this was! Incredible food & drinks selection and even though the particular treat I came for had sold out, the wonderful staff there put something special together for me which was so delicious! Also made my husband another drink on the house as he had mistakenly ordered the wrong thing…no fuss what so ever and even when he insisted on paying for it, they said not to which was so lovely. Really went above and beyond for us and I can not wait to return many more times in the future. For the glorious food and drink, for the stunning layout and display of the restaurant and for the beautiful people working there and making it so warm and welcoming! Thank you very much 😊

Twas but a few years ago when I, accompanied by a few of my closest family members, took a trip to the utopian state of Greece. We enjoyed a remarkable stay, engaging in many a consummation of Greek foods. As soon as we returned, we felt a pang in our stomachs, nay, a yearning to return to the culinary delights of the country. The Amalis Caffé is the closest we have since come. Situated just outside the centre of Canterbury, the Caffé is a five minute walk from the nearest parking, and contains many an exciting option for breakfast, as well as many treats to indulge your guilty pleasures. (yummy) I have been many times, and there is a generally muted atmosphere, which is just what I was searching for, as it allows me to enjoy their culinary delights in peace. Food service is very fast, and water is provided to wash down all your continental gastronomic adventures. Would recommend to anyone searching for a slice of the Mediterranean in the south-east of England.

Love it here. The best Greek goodies I've had outside of Greece and the coffee is top notch. I always visit when I'm in Canterbury. Portions are generous and food is delicious and tastes so authentic. It's a lovely vibe in there too.

Phoebes Canterbury

My Wife and I had been going into Phoebes for quite some time, always enjoying the lovely lunch selection, afternoon tea and amazing cakes on offer. We loved it all so much we asked the wonderful owner (Lesley) if she could make our cakes for our wedding. She was more than happy to accept and provided us with the most wonderful wedding cake and cupcakes, they really stole the show on the big day. Lesley made the whole process really easy on us and was happy to work with whatever we wanted, we even got to do a little cake tasting! We are so grateful for everything Lesley has done for us and our big day, and we will always be happy customers returning back to Phoebes for more sandwiches and afternoon teas!

Just listen to all the 5 star reviews and come here. Friendly staff more than happy to indulge reasonable requests and the eggs Benedict is PHENOMENAL. Proper stuff, you can taste the butter in the hollandaise. Will always come back whenever we're in the area!

Wow! Great find for a gorgeous early breakfast after dropping in the car for a service. With partner plus dog, we were made very welcome, and dogs are treated royally, too. Lovely old building, with very nice terrace, great cakes and super range of food. Car parking a very short walk away. Will be back soon!

13/11/21- Another lovely lunch with with my daughter today. We’re always made to feel very welcome and the staff and service is always excellent. Loving the homemade cakes. 13/04/21- Lovely lunch at Phoebes. Good range on menu, large sandwiches/baguette/panini selection. Salads, omelette and jacket potato’s and breakfast menu before 11.30. All reasonably priced. Delicious homemade cakes, perfect with my Americano. Fantastic customer service and the owner was lovely. 14/04/21- My 7 year old daughter was so happy with yesterday’s visit, she insisted we came back again today. The food and service is excellent again and the space is Covid secure with a lovely sun trap court yard. Lots of space and social distance with a warm welcoming atmosphere. Highly recommended, well worth a visit.

Tyrone is very reliable and turned up on time whenever he came to our house. His work is of a high standard and he always leaves everything clean and tidy. Highly recommended.
Rating: 5 / 5
TT Electrical conducted domestic work for me to a high standard and gave me important safety advice around my current set up. They were able to fit a PIV and cooker extractor fan as well as multiple sockets without any issues. Ty and his colleague were professional and very knowledgeable. No problem was too large for him and I have booked him for further work. Nice guy and great business.
Rating: 5 / 5
Great service! Tyrone responded quickly to my enquiry and was even prepared to come out on a weekend. He dealt with the problem quickly and efficiently, explaining everything, and checking that I was happy. Excellent value for money and he left everything tidy afterwards too! Would definitely use TT Electrical again.

We have just recently added a garden building to our property which we required connecting to the mains electrics. Very pleased with both the service and quality of work from Tyrone and his team. Excellent communication throughout from initial contact, through to arranging a quotation visit and finally completing the work. Thoroughly recommended.

Excellent service from Tyrone and the rest of the team! As a property management company we have been working with Tyrone for a little while now. He has attended multiple properties and always provides an excellent service. Would recommend without hesitation !

Canterbury Tails Cat Cafe
8 Mercery Ln, Canterbury CT1 2JJ, UK | Cat cafe P: Not available
Rating: 4.9 (576) Price Level:
One of the best decisions I’ve ever made was to spend two hours here during my trip to England last month. It starts with the perfect name, and things only get better from there. The staff are very friendly and helpful, and the cider and flapjack I had were delicious! Now we come to the cats. I spent most of my time with Waffle, a lovable Cornish Rex. He came right over and hopped in my lap. He stayed there for over an hour, which is basically my idea of heaven. I had the opportunity to meet or at least see most of the cats, and they are all wonderful! If you love cats, this is the place for you.
Rating: 5 / 5
I visited this dreamy cafe back in February and it was one of the most charming experiences I’ve ever had. The cafe was cosy, warm and in a wonderful location down a cobbled street towards the Cathedral. I had a lovely time meeting the playful and friendly cats. The plant based hot chocolate and cream tea I had was delicious and it was nice to be surrounded by a few peacefully sleeping cats for company as well. I very much recommend a visit if you are in Canterbury it’s a real treat. X
Rating: 5 / 5
I’ve been here a few times and they have only gotten better each time. The cats are in such good condition. It’s so lovely to see 28 cats living in a beautiful space. Not only that the food and drink is incredible. The staff are lovely and friendly. I cannot wait to go back again and enjoy looking at all the cute fluff balls. I fully support the owners of Canterbury Tails and what they are trying to do. 10 out of 10 with 100% recommend.

Visited with my friends for my birthday, in late August, & all of us absolutely loved it! The staff were super nice, the kitties were adorable & the chocolate cake is to die for! We got to look around and find the kitties hiding in different places, got to feed them, pet them and just look at them being adorable. Safe to say every single one of us walked out with a heart full of joy and planning when we will visit again! Thank you so much for having us!! ☺️

I went to the lovely cat cafe for my birthday in February, and for a general visit later in the year. And I loved every minute of it. The food and drinks were delicious, and seeing the sweet faces of all the cats was such an experience. Being at uni, I missed my cats back at home so it was so refreshing to see these gorgeous kitties. They are all so cared for by the team and I cannot wait to go again soon!

One Call Electrical Services
9 Hyde Pl, Aylesham, Canterbury CT3 3AN, UK | Electrician P: 01227 490028
Rating: 5 (16) Price Level:
A job completed absolutely on time and to order, with all points of it very professionally as well as punctually performed. We were struck by the care taken in the scoping out and, thanks to the clear explanations (and documentation) that we received, would have full confidence in the after-sales service which is available if needed. P.S. Six months after those sentences were posted, a second very satisfying recourse to this company enables us to reaffirm every word. The latest job, like the first one, was thoroughly scoped out and very tidily finished. It was an excellent service all the way from initial reconnaissance to installation, with valuable advice at either end of the process about what might best go where.

Thank you for fitting the new lighting and sockets in my kitchen today . As always your service was friendly and efficient. Will use you again on our next project. Thank you Les Baker.

One Call Electric installed Sockets in my shed (Man Cave) The work carried out was excellent, the armoured cable from the house to shed was installed along the bottom of the garden fence and barely visible. The sockets in the shed were installed exactly where I asked and the trim round the door was laid brilliantly. Super happy with everything they did. Would totally recommend this company.

Very tasty & juicy burger. Several fries styles. Very welcoming staff (as long as you close the door going in/out ;) ) Only ~7 seats to eat on-site.
Rating: 5 / 5
Our quest to find the ultimate burger bar may finally be over. The burgers were perfectly cooked and tasted amazing alongside a gorgeous portion of cheesy chips. The service was quick, and the staff were polite. If you're looking for awesome burgers, check this place out....Hopefully, they'll open a shop on Ashford soon.
Rating: 5 / 5
100% amazing!!!! Hands down, the best burger we ever had. Tasty, flavoursome, fresh ingredients. All flavours work well together, without one flavour, overpowering the other one. We ordered the blue cheese burger ,and the PIG /pulled pork, and two generous portions of chips ( skin on and cheese) . Plus a cider each. Staff were friendly and helpful. The place it self was very clean and tidy. We don’t live close ( rather quite far away near Leeds) but if we lived closer, we would be regulars. It’s a must visit place !
Rating: 5 / 5
This was genuinely one of the best burgers I’ve had in the UK (coming from an American). The burgers were juicy and the flavor was incredible. The duck fries were also amazing—perfectly crispy and delicious. The location is pretty small, so large parties should probably do take out, but as a group of 5, it worked out well. I’d wholeheartedly recommend this spot!
Rating: 5 / 5
Nice atmosphere, food and drink were served quickly. I was surprised the burger looked like the picture and it tasted so good. I got Cajun fries Regular, with BRG burger and a coke for around £18, £10 burger, £5 for fries, £2-3 for coke. Worth having a bite. Might be worth bringing cash as the electronic payments machine sometimes does not work.

We went to La Cabana on graduation day, and we were lucky that they had tables free for us and seated us very quickly. The staff were lovely and very accommodating. The food was really tasty and great portion sizes! The atmosphere was great, with a nice intimate restaurant with great music. We would definitely come again, and would absolutely recommend to go to!

Very warm and cozy location. Staff is very friendly and profesional. Amazing food and fair prices.
Rating: 5 / 5
Great food in an amazing location close to the Canterbury Cathedral. The restaurant is a fusion between classic dishes (you can find pizza, pasta, burgers) and Romanian cuisine. Romanian cuisine focuses on good meat and good quality ingredients, if you want to try some authentic dishes I would recommend the smoked aubergine salad, mititei and for dessert the Dracula's heart (actually called papanași, freshly made in the kitchen, the waiting is worthwhile). The service is very friendly and helpful and the restaurant looks amazing!
