We booked a table for the 3 course £19.95 lunchtime menu after reading many positive reviews and we are so glad that we did. We had Brie and tempura prawns to start followed by liver with bacon and moussaka, finishing with chocolate fondue and biscoff cheesecake. Everything that we had was cooked to perfection and beautifully presented. The wine was well chilled and reasonably priced. All the staff were efficient and friendly and the service was attentive but not intrusive, just as it should be. We are already looking forward to our next visit.

We celebrated our Nans 90th birthday here today and the food and the service was first class . All the staff were so friendly and welcoming. There was no waiting for our starters or main meals or desserts they all come out together which was great service. All our food was very tasteful and my wife and myself will certainly return for a meal there .

Wow! What a wonderful first experience we had! 2 adults, 3 teenagers and 1 small. Everyone enjoyed their meal. Meze was AMAZING and great value. Service was top class, friendly, knowledgeable, polite and attentive. We went for a special occasion and felt we were really treated as such. Thank you for making my 45th birthday memorable for all of us. Oh and the Cherry crush cocktail, LUSH. Only 1 photo as we were too busy having a great time.

Friendly family run restaurant. Great food quick service. Only 3 stars for atmosphere because near the end of our meal at a table of 7 ladies. They seated 15 people next to us on one long, put together tables. The noise they made with seating then talking meant we couldn't hear ourselves talking. Fortunately we were chucked off the tables we were on to seat another party.

Relay Electrical Ltd
A6 Barnfield Rd, Folkestone CT19 5SG, UK | Electrician P: 01303 316336
Rating: 5 (31) Price Level:
I have used Relay at 5 different properties - varying roles, from running electrics round the garden for lighting and hot tubs, full re wires and then changing lights and moving sockets and switches. They always turn up when they say they are normally with a Text message reminder sent the day before arrival ,nothing is any hassle ( even if the plans / design change our end ) and all always polite and professional. I never hesitate to pass on their details to friends and family and everyone has the same view! I have dealt with alot of electricians in my time and these guys can do the lot. Also good in ‘urgent’ cases for my tenanted properties - they can always juggle something to get someone back on supply or to fix a fault So I will always recommend Relay to anyone

Marleys
Creative Quarter, 2-4 South Street, Folkestone CT20 1RW, UK | Restaurant P: Not available
Rating: 4.8 (720) Price Level:
Marley's is amazing. I have been here a couple of times with friends and family and I have never been disappointed. Both times I have been here have been for breakfast. The first time I had their version of a fry up and the second time I had pancakes. The fry up was amazing. Really nice sausages and eggs and it was all locally sourced. The pancakes were peanut butter and strawberry. The peanut butter was made at Marleys and I did ask if I could buy some. The price is fair as well and very good value as they make some of the food and buy locally. If you are coming for the pancakes it's worth knowing that they change the topping week to week so look at their Instagram.

We were lucky to get a table for early dinner and were not disappointed. The smashed burger was delicious and the service was fantastic and friendly. Food was hot and we hardly waited ten minutes. Great that it’s not overpriced and they don’t automatically add service charge to your bill. We shall definitely return soon. give the overpriced harbour arm a miss and visit this gem

Popped in here for a lite lunch before hitting the harbour. We were seated quickly without booking, which was great for a Sat. The food was good, but large portions, so be aware.
Rating: 5 / 5
Lovely meal, great service. The sharing platter for starters was really nice. For mains, I would highly recommend the pork belly or the steak. Went for an anniversary meal and every staff member to came to the table wished us a happy anniversary and had a little personal note on the table it was a nice touch 😊

🤩 Took a trip from Margate especially to revisit Marleys. Their service is fantastic and food is just delicious ! Excellent prices for the quality of the food you are getting. So much cheaper than Margate cafes 💰 🐶🛑 NOTE: the cafe js NOT dog friendly if you want to eat a meal (u can have a coffee at the front) so you have to leave your furry friend at home!

Our friends recommended Antonio to us. Antonio is extremely professional and reliable. He has academic and professional knowledge in his field. He plans his work in detail and always offers best solution. He leaves the work place spotlessly clean. He offers competitive prices. We have used Antonio’s services 4 times now and we have recommended his services to our neighbours and friends. We cannot thank Antonio enough. Amazing guy! Excellent work ethics! Excellent standards of work! Highly recommend!
Rating: 5 / 5
All the work carried out by Antonio has been done with 100% commitment, professionalism and consideration.We are so glad to have found a tradesman happy in his work that you can rely on and trust.
Rating: 5 / 5
Antonio came recommended by a colleague, its not hard to see why. He is always on time, nothing is too much and charges very reasonable rates. There are several jobs that need to be done throughout the house but the first job he did was to replace our switchboard. The work is to a very high standard, he leaves things clean and tidy when he is done. It's very hard these days to find a reliable craftsman and I am very pleased to have come across Antonio. Don't look further if you are looking for a very skilled and punctual electrician who is a top guy to boot!
Rating: 5 / 5
Antonio did a great job doing the electrics in my flat, he is easy to get on with and someone you can trust. He has brought the electrics up to date at a price I was more than happy with. I would highly recommend Antonio and if I need an electrician in the future I would definitely use him again.
Rating: 5 / 5
I have used Antonio on numerous occasions, most recently to rewire my house and add new outdoor electrical outlets for security cameras and lighting. It was a large job due to its complexity and the need to add consumer units to different parts of the property. Antonio's price was very competitive, but most importantly he was professional, polite and flexible. My frequent mind changes did not phase him at all, and he did not show any annoyance (I would not have been so accomodating). His workmanship and knowledge was top notch, likely from his teaching background. I have included a picture of how neat his wiring was for a consumer unit installation. If you are looking for a professional and dependable electrician, I could not reccommend Antonio highly enough.

Had a great Sunday dinner loved the food and staff we very helpful 😊
Rating: 5 / 5
Amazing place - a real hidden treasure! I dream of their full English breakfast and its ham. You can order a small portion of full English breakfast plus a single waffle for a decadent breakfast. The cappuccino comes with real chocolate dust. Attentive staff, pleasant environment, soft music. A feel of a friendly neighborhood cafe for a perfect lazy weekend brunch or a relaxed lunch during the week.

Great breakfast location, food is quality, and good value. Paid £12 for a large breakfast and a flat white. Lovely service, staff are chatty and welcoming. Was fairly quiet on a Friday morning, and a few regulars popped in. Ingredients are good and cooked well.

Great place for breakfast. The staff is very friendly and helpful, and the place looks gorgeous! Their food is very tasty and cooked with fresh ingredients when ordered - true enough, it adds some more waiting time before you can eat, but trust me, you won't regret it! Freshness and quality justify it with no doubt.

We visited here after looking around town for somewhere to have dessert. We really lucked out. The place is newly decorated and is really cute. The passion fruit and mango chiller was delicious and our desserts not only looked good but were delicious! The service was perfect and we really loved the music which set a nice chilled vibe. Will definitely visit again when in the area.

My husband and I visited Folkestone for a mini break and came to Mocka for breakfast. We'd seen good reviews and thought we'd give it a try. Spectacular! The breakfasts were beautifully presented and of high quality. We'd recommend this place highly. Wishing the owners a lot of success in your venture.
Rating: 5 / 5
Nice looking restaurant. The savoury part of the waffle 🧇 is a bit bland, but I like the combo of savoury and sweet in one plate. The burger is good. One of the friends ordered the sandwich which seems to be the best. :)

This cafe has all the 'true' quiltlies of a traditional cafe. I personally love the experience when visiting, it's simply comfortable. I go alone on luch breaks when working near by. Discovered this only a few weeks back. I Think it's family run, and the guy who serves just seems really nice. Will always support such establishments. food is great, the price is great, and coffee is better than most coffee shops. £7.50-£8 for a solid breakfast w/coffee can't be beaten. I do many reviews on google and will always make a point of showcasing exceptional establishments with detailed reviews. Well done, guys. I hope you are here for many, many years to come.

Highly Recommended Joe and Lewis installed new circuits for our kitchen recently, including various lighting solutions, plus a new consumer unit and an EV charger. They are highly professional, punctual, tidy, arrive when they say they are going to and nothing is too much trouble. I like the fact that Joe has a can-do attitude and rather than just taking the easy route he works with you to develop your own ideas, suggesting alternatives to consider and helps to save costs where possible. I will definitely be using Parker Electrical for any future requirements.

Joe & team have helped us with a number of jobs over the years, the latest being our Tesla EV charger. We’re always pleased with the service and nothing ever seems too much. Will always recommend. Thank you.

Joe came out straightaway to replace the shower isolation switch & was his usual brilliant, friendly self. We go to him for all our electrical work which is completed to the highest standards.
