So glad that this bar is doing well as we've seen bars come and go in this arcade. Great dirty burgers and chips at good prices, just be aware it can take a while. Friendly staff and fantastic to have a bar playing a great selection of rock music.

A lovely bar in Maidstone selling great food also. Visited on Thursday night which wasn’t very busy so had our pick of which table to sit at. Ordered burger & fries. Was absolutely delicious. & finished it off with a Tinkie winkie cocktail in a skull glass. Rock music playing in the background & lots of skull decor.

We had a lovely and very tasty breakfast at Jels Cafe. The milkshake was amazing. The staff are all nice and friendly and happily provided a bowl of water for our puppy. We sat outside under the awning and enjoyed our food. Would recommend.

Such a lovely homely cafe. The breakfast was just what we wanted. A classic greasy spoon, with speedy service and a smile. Highly recommend if you’re in the area, great spot for a quick bite with family/friends/children etc.

I came in for lunch with family I hadn't seen in a while as we'd heard good things about Jel's Cafe. A good number of options to choose from, I had a large English breakfast and a sanpellegrino lemon, whereas everyone else had jacket potatoes. I got hash browns and black pudding as extra as it didn't come as standard, but the meal still was reasonably priced. My aunt commented saying the jacket potato was the best one she's ever had outside of home cooking, so will be back to try that myself!

St Leonard's

Rating: 4.8 (164) Price Level:
Another stunning meal at St Leonard’s! I come here every time they change the menu and it just keeps getting better. The food is seasonal, beautifully presented, and tastes amazing. They also have a really good wine selection and elegant cocktails. I’d recommend the Bloody Mary or the chocolate and hazelnut martini (this is really nice for dessert too). 10/10, definitely recommend.

Well, this was a great surprise. I'd been working in West Malling all day filming, and my mother in law booked us in for dinner. She is rather discerning, and this was to be her third visit in a couple of weeks, so I had high hopes. We had the taster menu. See the attached pics and what a wonderful gastronomic journey it was. The kitchen team has obviously honed this menu to a level of layered brilliant flavour bombs. We loved this meal and every course was interesting and delicious. We had a nice, well priced Malbec, and I'll be back it it was a great meal. The staff and venue were attentive and yet relaxed. Thanks very much, and keep up the great work!

Fantastic!! My wife and I had a rare date night without the children. We have wanted to try St Leonard’s since moving to West Malling a few months ago. We decided to have a cocktail before we headed to our table and it was the best margarita we have had in a very long time. We went for the tasting menu , each dish was really tasty and well presented. The monkfish was my favourite. Wine was very reasonably priced and the service was on point. We will be back again very soon!!

We booked a private dining room for a family Sunday Lunch and opted for a lamb sharer. We were served beautiful warm bread rolls with a selection of butter and oil and a superb starter. The main Sunday roast meal was delicious with lamb that was so tender and tasty served with onions, garlic and herbs and a selection of vegetables, cauliflower cheese, roast potatoes and massive Yorkshire puds. Absolutely fantastic meal with sticky toffee pudding and clotted cream to follow. The private room was spacious and set out for our family lunch and it was just what we wanted. We were able to eat in relaxing surroundings with our family. The staff were professional, polite and made are lunch very special. In the words of my granddaughter ‘we are in a super special room’. All in all a wonderful lunch and afternoon.

We have used Smart Home AV Ltd for a number of years now and always found Scott to be friendly, reliable, knowledgeable and efficient. As installers of high end landscaping projects we install numerous garden buildings, swimming pools, hot tubs etc that require Scott's input and expertise. Our clients have very high expectations and Scott meets them every time. Highly recommended, you can't go wrong.

A great experience of using Smart Home AV for CCTV installation and improving my home WiFi infrastructure. Scott and Andy are very professional, explained clearly (and simply!) what needed to be done and completed the job on time despite a few challenges. Would fully recommend.
Rating: 5 / 5
We first thought that Smart Home were just about high-end 'smart home' installations - which is why initially asked Andy and Scott to cable TV and internet throughout our new home. But we soon realised they do much more than that - meaning we then asked them to install/update sockets and lights, and to take on a range of 'hidden challenges'. They solved everything - and have been a delight to work with. Highly recommended.

We have just purchased first Smart TV and not being great technicians decided to use a Company Services to set this up. It was easy to contact them and we got a response quickly and were able to arrange date. Toby from Smart Home arrived on time and proceeded with setting up Smart TV. It took longer than expected as issue with slow internet! Very patient and helpful assisted with set up of Netflix/Amazon account and went on to explain how use different functions. Kindly took old TV away which was helpful. Would recommend a friendly, professional and more important local company.

Scott at Smart Home AV has installed a wireless security system in our home. He’s also helped us with numerous electrical issues and has made some excellent recommendations on how we can brighten our dark kitchen. I will use Smart Home AV for future projects. Thank you Scott!

I had a super Breakfast Bagel. It was filled with bacon,egg and cheese,not the sliced plastic stuff either, and a pot of tea. My friend had smoked salmon and scrambled eggs on sourdough. We both made Mmmm noises as we appreciated the gorgeous breakfast. Very welcoming staff,but I understand it's best to book as it's become so popular. I'd give it 10/10 Well done Bojangles 👍🏻

Really lovley friendly people, dog friendly, and there's a nice little garden out back to sit in! I definitely recommend the fish finger sandwich! :)
Rating: 5 / 5
My husband and I were sleep deprived, we were so hungry and our two young children were kicking off…the owners couldn’t have been kinder and our New York sandwich was delicious. The croissant they made our children had a heart made out of cucumbers on the side which nearly made me cry which goes to show how burned out we were but how grateful we were too. It really is the small things that go a long way and I highly recommend Bojangles. The coffee was really nice with a decent foam. Even after my toddler having a meltdown, I don’t feel too embarrassed to go back which speaks volumes.

Rating: 4.7 (730) Price Level:
What a beautiful interior, what a beautiful building, am so looking forward to visiting again in the warmer months and sitting outside. We are fans of tapas and we're delighted to find them in Maidstone, we'd have visited sooner if we'd known La Taberna was on our doorstep. The restaurant is tucked away but is now no longer a secret as we will be revisiting many times. The menu is inviting, temping, vast and everything we ordered was delicious. Cannot praise it enough.

Loved it. As a Spanish person, I find it really hard to find good Spanish places in the UK (outside of London). Very pleased to find an actual Spanish-run one. WE LOVED IT! 🙂

A fantastic restaurant in Maidstone for tapas. A great array of dishes to suit everyone. Beautiful setting in a medieval building

Really good food and service. We found the chorizo a bit fat compared to what we usually get, but paella was delicious.
Rating: 5 / 5
I had dinner with my friends here and it was brilliant. The food was all delicious and hot, we had seven dishes between three of us and two side plates of bread and it was just right! Lovely and friendly service, and the building itself is absolutely beautiful. It has a real family restaurant feel to it and the tables are decorated beautifully. I will definitely return here.

Pop in here for lunch after visiting Teapot Island (see Seperate review). A beautiful day seating outside but we chose to sit in as it was too warm outside for us. A weekday lunch, not too busy, we quickly got our drinks, a good selection of beers, & took our menus. The food was freshly cooked & took around 45 minutes, but it was worth waiting for. Between us we had stir fry & more traditional "pub grub", chose against desert, although, so so tempting. Service was good & will certainly pay it a return visit
Rating: 5 / 5
Lovely village pub that invests in its community by holding local events and fundraising activities. The food is excellent and the menu diverse, look out for the specials too, always a gastronomic experience. Occasional live music in the marquee and the best beer festival around is held in April. Very large beer garden with play equipment to keep the children happy.

We visited on a Saturday evening for a family birthday. The food was great and good service. Desserts were nice and big, sadly I didn’t get a picture before we dug in! Lovely classic pub atmosphere. Would be good if they had menus as you have to read off the board which an older guest found difficult, but ultimately we had a lovely meal. Will be returning.

Lovely little cafe. Staff clearly are very proud of their cafe and very friendly. Great place for a drink and cake or a meal. Very reasonable priced. Look forward to going back. We ordered a latte, banana milkshake and both had the chicken wrap off the day with added halloumi and chips.

Pastry hits! I knew it with just a look 🤩 The apple pie (green with raspberry on top) calls me to order, seems perfect for the winter holiday. My sister loved the lemon pie. Would definitely come back to try a full meal x

Staff - friendly and accommodating. Took us as walk ins, and sat us away from the crowd as we had a sleeping baby with us. Food - served quickly and perfectly at lunch time. A french omelette and chips, amazing. Only personal improvement - could have had more blue cheese melted into it! Ha. Also, the pastries are heavenly. Well done and thank you.

Went for our wedding anniversary a week ago, had been years since we'd been so was nice to go again. Our food was mostly perfect with the exception of the Seabass, which was slightly over cooked and the plate was served with sauce over the sides. My Sole was fantastic, as was the rabbit tart, blue cheese and walnut salad and our Tart au citroens. We were given the choice of where we wanted to sit by a well-dressed gentlemen who couldn't have been nicer. A couple of gripes, though! If you want a soft drink then there is no drink menu for this and when asked it was Coke, lemonade, rhubarb press and one other which I can't remember. All again with lemonade if we wanted. I'd seen ginger ale and others in the fridge later on but was a bit disappointed not to be told this. Also, when our cutlery was cleared by the same waiter after our mains, he just put the cutlery in the middle of the table for us to sort ourselves. Little things may be, but make all the difference on a special night. Would definitely recommend and go back but won't be in a massive rush.
