The Sportsman

We had a lovely stay overnight at the little chalet after arriving by ferry from Dover. Sholden is just a short drive away and the Sportsman has private parking, which was perfect. The room was furnished comfortably and we slept very well. Everything was clean and fresh linen and towels as well as some toiletries and tea were provided. The adjacent pub seemed lovely and seemed to host a trivia night when we arrived, unfortunately we were just too tired from the trip to join. There are corn fields just a few minutes away, which was perfect for walking our dog in the morning.

Lovely roast beef 😋 staff are very attentive, but watch out when ordering a bottle of wine. Make sure you make it clear that you are after a full-size bottle and not a small glass size one .

Often visit with the family for food and drinks when we are in the area. Today’s visit was just as good as always. Food was delicious - especially the new fish burger and the hot chocolate fudge cake! The teams hospitality are second to none and couldn’t recommend the pub more!!

Great friendly pub with accommodation. Rooms clean and tidy, staff extremely friendly, local pub with a family atmosphere and varied drink and food options. Very well prepared and served food for "pub grub" and a Sunday Roast. Prices very reasonable for the service, would recommend and will definitely use again for a weekend stay.

Excellent. Looked up "best bacon sandwich" and this place came up. It did not disappoint..... had a bacon bap and it was loaded with bacon on a soft lightly toasted bap. Wife had sausage and onion bap and was equally impressed. The dog loved his tit bits handed under the table. Coffee was beautiful too. Thank you.

Delightful little cafe with an incredibly attentive owner who's more than happy to make recommendations or alterations if required. The mango and stilton sausage roll was excellent (it's a more subtle flavour than it sounds like) and the toasties are very generously filled. A great find.

Birthday treat. I have never seen so much food! All delicious and fresh. One gluten free in our party and this was not a problem. Staff very friendly and helpful. Took pics of our little party for us. Such good value. Would definitely recommend and will definitely return. Thank you so much.

Came here with family on Christmas Eve and had the three course set menu. The food is really exceptional and everything is prepared onsite. Front of house are incredibly attentive and you have enough time between courses to relax. A really good selection of wines are available.

Hands down one of the best cafes I've been to. The mocha is AMAZING and the veggie breakfast and even the yoghurt bowl! Will need to visit again once in Deal. Thanks so much for two lovely experiences.

Vegetarian cafe. Breakfast was not huge but didn't leave me hungry, and was very well presented and tasty. Likewise with the coffee: a fairly small cup but extremely tasty. The staff were friendly and helpful.

This is a warm friendly place and the delicious coffee adds many points to it. Unfortunately, the curried lentil soup was far too spicy for us and the salad plate we didn’t enjoy- strong flavours that clashed, in my opinion. But the cheese toastie was lovely, dessert was amazing and so was the coffee. Staff are helpful and very friendly.

If you are in Deal, you must visit Bangkok Pavilion. If not for the amazing food, then to meet the restaurant owner. A family owned business full of atmospheric delightful authentic decorative feel. The Thai owner was our host, and i found him warm welcoming and funny character. This establishment is His passion, and it shows with his engagement with his customers. I ordered the prawns and broccoli with coconut rice and a Bingha beer. The aroma as the food was served made me want to get stuck in. But i had to take a few photos first. A really nice restaurant, a friendly atmosphere, well worth a visit. Highly recommended !! BOOK IN ADVANCE to secure a table, especially over the weekend.

My favourite restaurant in Deal. The food is always amazing and tasty, the staff are like family, so friendly and always have a smile for you. Love it here and always come to Bangkok Pavillion for special meals and evenings. We had mains, desserts and drinks/shots each persons bill was roughly £40-50!

This is such an amazing, authentic looking place. Staff were very friendly and helpful! The scaffolding out the front was a little eye-sore, but it's just external refurbishment going on at the time! The decor inside was exceptional and its like you've been transported to Thailand! The food was fantastic, I had Duck in Garlic and Chilli and the taste was exceptional! Would totally recommend to anyone!

It was so lovely, speedy service, incredible food and we had such a lovely man serving us, always bringing us more water and updating us on the euros! Such a lovely man and the food was incredible. Very tasty, good atmosphere and lovely presentation of the food. Large selection of drinks , starters, mains and deserts and everything was so lovely. 10/10 honestly one of the best restaurants I’ve been too!! And they offer take away service for leftovers! Really enjoyed it!! Also for what it’s worth we went as a group of 4 teens and they wern’t judging us or watching our every move as a lot of restaurant do. Best food in deal!!

I went with a friend to the Grinch Afternoon tea. I've been to several of the afternoon teas.. not reviewed till now. I've made a point of doing it today as it was once again a 'can't stop smiling' experience. The staff are so welcoming and helpful. The menu is lovely and so creative. It's the attention to detail that I always love so much. Even down to things like the 'ice' shard and the little tart with the lane grinch logo on. Each afternoon tea is obviously well planned out and any dietary adjustments are made so they still fit the theme. You get so much for your money and I love that you can box up and take home the rest. The drinks are also never ending, very generous and you are never rushed even when you can tell they are getting ready for another sitting. (Happened on another occasion- a friend and I had chatted for so long we were the only ones left. The staff were still really friendly and chatty, answering random questions I had.) There is beautiful decorations everywhere which are hand painted and details galore. A really nice touch was a candy cane on the grinch plate and there is always a puzzle on every table. To the team, keep doing what you're doing, you're bringing a lot of joy, cleshay yes but true, its very much appreciated. To anyone else, pick a theme you like and get booked in.

I had breakfast at the Lane for the first time today after my partner had been with some friends for lunch and loved it, i was so excited and the breakfast definitely did not disappoint. The pancakes and coffee were delicious, the service was super quick and friendly and I would love to come and try some of the items on their new menu too !

Can't rate this restaurant any higher than 5 but the food was fabulous. If you go to Deal, this is a must visit restaurant if you love Italian cuisine. Everything we had was delicious and reasonably priced with wine. Can definitely recommend the spinach and ricotta cannelloni.

We were lucky to be squeezed in on a bank holiday Sunday. The food was wonderful. I’m not a vegan anymore but have to avoid dairy. This lovely little restaurant caters for everyone. My vegan pizza was heaven. The faux cheese, absolutely amazing 💯

My partner and I made a reservation last week, and have to say probably one of the nicest meals we’ve had out in a while! Really affordable prices, a great atmosphere and such lovely fresh food. We both had bruschetta and pizza, couldn’t fault neither. The skin on fries came lovely and seasoned too… the staff couldn’t have done enough to accommodate us. No surprise that the place didn’t have a single empty table this evening. We will definitely be booking again soon!

We were a table 7 and a toddler. We were served promptly by our lovely waiter vlad who was very helpful and a great knowledge on the menu. We had starters and mains and there was empty plates all round. All our food came together. We took puddings home which were also so good. Lovely family restaurant. We will definitely be returning. Well done margaritas what a great team you have 👏👏👏

Very rare to find an Italian style family restaurant outside of Italy. But this is one, and a very good one too. We started with the sharing board and there was plenty , various meats, four very good cheeses, sun dried tomatoes, olives and various pickles. We also shared a seafood pizza. It was beautifully crisp with clams,mussels, prawns and squid on a tomato base, a bit suprised there was cheese too but it worked well. We also had a handmade pasta dish each. Mine was tortoloni with black truffles and burratta, it was wonderful. My husband carried on with a seafood spaghetti dish. It looked and tasted great. By this time we were too full for the very attractive desserts, but we will be back to try them. The place is quite small and booking is essential. But there is a lovely atmosphere and we had a table at the front so we could see the sea . The staff were faultless and worked very hard to ensure everything was perfect. We both loved Margheritas, it is well worth a visit.

Popped in today for late lunch, service was excellent and food pretty good as well. Love the loaded chips here. Great location and a lot of history to this old building. Foods good but was disappointed on my last visit as they changed the menu again removing a couple of my favourites. Can get extremely busy in the bar so sometimes it's best to use the restaurant, Same menu and better service. Had a Nice breakfast there whilst staying at hotel. Serves food there till late every day. there's a small public car park outside the pub or you can pay and display along the sea front behind the hotel. Dogs welcome.

We went here a couple of times for a snack at lunchtime and also one evening. The menu is varied and the food was very tasty and enjoyable. A good system was in use to control the covid situation. Excellent choice of wines here and good views of the sea from the outside tables. We liked it here very much.

Nice seafront restaurant. Excellent food and wines. We had calamari and smoked duck to start and the traditional beef and ale pie. All were beautifully cooked. We chose an Italian wine Nero d Avola which we had before in Italy but from a different vinyard. This was much nicer.
