Great Mexican! Super yummy food & nice vibe. Been my fave spot for years while I lived in Canterbury. Came back 5 years later & it’s still the same great quality food, full of flavors. Funky art on the wall is for sale too! Thank you:)

Friendly staff, fun decor and delicious food. First time visiting and am new to Mexican foods so the staff helped me understand the menu items better to make my choice. Went for the spinach leek and cheese tacos and they were so good and paired wonderfully with the beans and guac. Excited to return and try more!

Great food, quick and friendly service with a cosy ambience. The Lamb Stew that I had was delicious and the accompanying salsa was fresh with the right amount of spice. Left feeling full and Happy!

Wow. The duck is just fantastic. The server asked me how I wanted to duck, which was the first time I’ve ever been asked that. He explained to me that the duck tastes better and has a nicer texture if it id a bit pink. And he was right. The duck was the highlight of my entire trip to Canterbury! There’s also a student discount, which is really nice. This place is very popular, so be sure to make a reservation. Luckily they were able to fit us in without needing to make one.

This is the best meal I’ve had in Canterbury and I understand why this restaurant has lasted so long. It’s one of the busiest restaurants too so you do have to book (it was packed even on a dreary February weekday ). The decor is colourful and wonderfully eccentric. Every member of the staff was warm and friendly despite the fact that they were very busy. I ordered a chicken fajita which came with generous, fresh portions of everything and deliciously cooked chicken. It’s worth noting that although the menu shows fajita for two that can also do single portions on request (I nearly didn’t have one at all because I don’t know this). Other members in the party all complemented the food. Overall it was excellent and I strongly recommend it.

Stag Coffee & Kitchen
Unit 10-11 Marlowe Arcade, Canterbury CT1 2TJ, UK | Brunch Restaurant P: 01227 908667

Have been here before and enjoyed it this time, not quite as good The ordering is easy, and drinks are delivered to your table when ready, disappointingly today these we tepid rather than hot. Nice ideas for three different bruschetta, we chose the mushroom one, and it looked great but again on the cool side. Previously excellent experience, so we have blended the rating

I recently visited Stag and was absolutely blown away by their breakfast options! Not only did they have an incredible variety of dishes, but they also had an impressive selection of drinks to choose from. The quality of the food was exceptional - everything was cooked to perfection and bursting with flavour. The atmosphere was also lovely, with friendly staff and a welcoming ambiance. I highly recommend this restaurant for anyone looking to enjoy a delicious breakfast in a cozy and inviting setting. Trust me, you won't be disappointed!

Nicely situated in the heart of Canterbury. Seating inside and out ( under cover) We had a very pleasant cup of Egyptian mint tea at a very affordable price. And the staff member was extremely efficient and pleasant.
Rating: 5 / 5
Nice location, and there are many options for cocktails 🍹. I loved the Halloween 🎃 decorations. They had 1+1 cocktails offer going on. Loved it. However taste of the food could've been a bit better. Didn't feel fresh.

The comedy night at the Stag was a great evening out! Decent drinks and a great bit of entertainment from the stand ups. Definitely recommend a visit for a chilled time and a good laugh.

Rating: 4.3 (881) Price Level:
OVERVIEW Korea marinades Texas on the grill; worth a try for the BBQ meat lover! ADVICE * The “Smokehouse BBQ Board” for two is really for 3! With a side dish each, it was more than enough to fulfil and satisfy. PLUS + Authentic, unique, and eclectic menu. + The “Smokehouse BBQ Board” was delicious at a 4* level. Each cut of meat had a distinct flavourful seasoning. + The “Korean BBQ Sausage” was the most flavourful and tender sausage I have ever had! + The “Cowgirl Salad” was at a 5* level. A dynamic crunch of fresh and crispy vegetables coated in a soy marinade, perfectly balanced with orange slices. + The “Award Winning Cherry Bbq St Louis Char Siu Ribs” tasted like an award, with its unique sweet and savoury flavour. + The “Spicy Miso Ramen” was just ok as it was bland but plentiful, table of two consensus. + The “Bao Doughnut” was a must try! An eclectic and surprising combination that worked delightfully well. + Formally welcoming and genuinely friendly staff, always smiling! + Modern intimate interior that complemented the type of food served. + Walk-in dinner time availability. MINUS - The meat board could have included side dishes to balance the “meatiness”. - The "Texas Style Smoked Turkey" was dry and underseasoned, table of two consensus. - Overpriced menu, in addition to a 12.5% service charge tops London prices. - They do not accommodate meal alterations. - The restaurant could benefit from a quick, hassle-free table QR code payment method, i.e., the "Sunday" payments app. ORDER HISTORY Mains: * Smokehouse BBQ Board (for two) * Award Winning Cherry Bbq St Louis Char Siu Ribs * Spicy Miso Ramen Sides: * Cowgirl Salad * Rice * Kimchi Dessert: * Bao Doughnut

Went for lunch with friends- ordered basically everything on the menu- highlight were the brisket and the burnt ends, and the burger! Service was flawless- always checking in and being attentive - it’s the first time in a long time that I’ve had such good service! Hats off to (I’m sorry I think their hand was Bryan!) either way- fantastic food! Fantastic service and a great atmosphere. (Please excuse the picture! It all looked to good and we couldn’t wait start!)

This place is a mixture of Korean and Texan barbecue and the food is awesome. They have blended both styles and created some fantastic food.The chicken wings are as a great the pulled pork. I would recommend trying the platter which gives you a selection of meats. One of the best restaurants I have been to anywhere. It all seems to just work.
Rating: 5 / 5
It was brilliant here. The staff were very kind and helpful and the atmosphere and design was really nice. The American smash burger was delicious and the fries were also lovely. In addition there was a lot of variety on the menu and it all sounded delicious. Overall I highly recommend coming here and hope to come back.

We were desperate for a good coffee and a local suggested this place. Located near the entrance to the cathedral (which was packed with students of all ages on excursions), we nestled into a table and ordered our long awaited our coffee. Looking at the soup a fellow diner was having I was somewhat jealous. Next time! Loved the quirkiness of this place with fun and interesting signage, cute decor and funky ambience. Wheelchair friendly. Kid friendly. Good location. Lovely staff. We will return.

Sat in a for a late lunch, ordered a gluten free pesto chicken sandwich and an iced oat chai latte. My friend got the grilled cheese with a flat white. Felt as though 15 quid was a bit expensive for my order - until the food was served! The sandwiches are massive and both my friend and I kept half for dinner. We both really enjoyed our meals! The staff were warm and welcoming, the cafe was relatively quiet for a Saturday at 12:45pm. There were a variety of cakes available as well, with a fair amount of gluten free and vegan options available. Staff clarified whether my gluten free sandwich order was due to an allergy or a preference. Overall, would recommend, especially for those with a gluten intolerance!

Really lovely place! A friend of mine recommended the place to me and I checked it out! Great coffee, I had a white mocha with hazelnut syrup and oat milk (amazingly made, and tasted great), and I had this really tasty granola bowl with yogurt, oats, strawberries, raspberries and some other tasty fruit (10/10 mix, I asked for some cinnamon and maple syrup to add and it was exceptional to me). Really cool vibe to the place, and was really impressed by the miniature train set they have towards the back. Shout out to rachel for her kind service and the male staff with glasses (he actually built the train set himself! Really impressive). I’ll definitely be back, highly recommend!

Incredibly tasty food! I had the lamb chump and shared a camembert fritter with my partner. The food was amazing. Yes it is a tad pricy, but you definitely get what you pay for! The inside of the place is very quirky with loads of clocks on the walls, so a little cuckoo happens every now and then which is fun :) Staff was good and came around quickly when needed, and the cocktail I had was also very nice

This charming building built in 1500 AD, dinner did not disappoint. We were able to sit on the small terrace over looking the water. The roast beef is sliced thin but the Yorkshire pudding and thrice cooked roast potatoes were delicious.. They were served with the carrots, broccoli and peas cooked perfectly not sitting in soggy gravy. The lamb and rosemary meat pie was a blend of spices, savory with the delicate crust on top. Service was attentive and you did not feel rushed even though they were so busy. Loved watching the punting boats on the river.

We were in Canterbury for a two days, and usually we never go back to the same restaurant twice, but for this restaurant we did. In the afternoon we had 3 sets of appetizers who were delicious and for supper we had a chicken and cranberry pie, a salmon and cod pie and a Chicken & Bacon with white wine sauce, potatoes and mushrooms (Gluten Free). Our servers Izzy, Lizzie and Mo were really helpful and helped me figure out what I could eat, with the dishes that could be made Gluten Free. They were so nice and so helpful. We (all 3) recommend this restaurant. The garden in the back is super nice, near the river, and the inside has a rustic vibe that we all enjoyed!!

I just want to say thank you! Yesterday my family and I had a lovely time. :) We just popped in for a quick lunch, expecting a basic pud like service, but we were pleasantly surprised at how incredibly good everything was. Kind and welcoming service and delicious food. With my husband we shared a vegetable pie and a Nut roast and bought it was perfect! It's easily the best vegetarian lunch I had this year! My in-laws tried two of the fish dishes and they loved them. Can't recommend it enough! :)

We arrived at the Olive Grove after a hectic day and rather stressful day. It was a Friday evening, we hadn't booked but fortunately the lady who greeted us made us feel instantly at ease. The decor is superb and the staff were great, the food we ate was delicious. Will definitely visit again next time in town. Thank you very much guys!

I've been there yesterday for the very first time. The ambience is amazing - you have a plenty of sitting space. Quality of the food is decent enough. I'd rate 4/5. I've tried their Katsu Chicken with rice and gravy. Note: if you are looking for something spicy you might be disappointed. Overall a great experience I'd say.

Yeah, it's pretty good. Well priced food, good atmosphere and overall a decent place to study or eat. Wish they put the piano out more often though.

Good amount of food for only £3 you get a main and a side. Add a salad bowl for an extra quid. The quantity is great, the taste is great too. Food is fresh and hot. There are sachets for S&P if needed, and sauce bottles if you want them. Lots of space in the hall but does get busy during peak times. Chicken is Halal.

Here for a Sunday brunch with reservation. Though it seems to have occasional walk in seats. Greeted by friendly staff that checked on us several times during our meal. They also reminded us that food are made to order so it takes time, turns out all our dishes arrived within half an hour which I think is reasonable. Ordered anchovy pate as a starter which offered generous portion of pate for a really small but toasted perfectly bread. Smoked mackerel was decent but not excellent. The place is in a small food market which adds to the vibe.

I had dinner and breakfast here as a package and it was excellent. The dinner was three courses, wonderfully presented and tasted great. The service was very good and breakfast was equally enjoyable.
Rating: 5 / 5
I was a little bit hesitant going here as per the Google reviews but I'm pleased we gave it a chance. We chose the three courses and enjoyed some really nice food served by very attentive and friendly staff (Claudio was especially good). I had the asparagus, hake, and banana dishes and found all enjoyable with some nice touches (the hake, for example, was cooked beautifully with accompaniments full of flavour). We did notice that the restaurant was quiet at a peak period and wondered whether the online feedback had played a part in that - a real pity given that the staff clearly cared about the experience and wanted to see people walk away happy. We look forward to visiting again in the future 😊
Rating: 5 / 5
This was a real gem. We loved the concept with several smaller dishes to share, and the quality of the food was superb. Service was very attentive and top class. Maximum value for the money.
