Martin is a thorough professional. He is well-informed and efficient, and his attention to detail is exceptional. He is an extremely tidy worker and very reliable. I am particularly grateful for the time he gives to talking through the issues and options involved in making decisions. On this occasion I was putting in an infrared heating system for the first time where I needed to talk though some unfamiliar details and I always felt his approach was un-rushed and thoughtful.

Martin is fantastic, care, quality and cleanliness of work is brilliant. Martins communication during the whole process has been faultless, he response really quickly with excellent detail and always happy to answer questions. The work completed during our EV charger install is perfect, we’re really happy. Thank again!

I highly recommend Martin. He did a great job and went the extra mile to ensure that I was up and running as soon as possible with my new charger. He is very knowledgeable about fitting EV chargers and I was highly satisfied with his work. I can’t praise him enough! PS. He is a really nice person as well!

Martin fitted a new battery back-up system to compliment our Solar PV Array. Martin is a very experienced, knowledgeable Electrician who takes good care over the quality of his work. Martin discusses and explains everything he does before commencing work and at all stages. His paperwork is excellent too - all certification produced promptly. Highly recommended.

We decided to spend a day out at Herne Bay and came across this place whilst looking somewhere to have lunch. On first impression, the Café has a calming and cosy atmosphere. Love the colour and décor of the café. Staff are friendly, polite and helpful. Always a bonus and makes the experience more pleasant. I ordered a crab and cheese toastie with chips and salad and my husband had cod fish and chips. Nice portion size and the food was tasty and quite delightful. Homemade chips, it was delicious. I thoroughly enjoyed my toastie, it was delicious. Lovely bright colours in the salad, appealing to the eye. A mix of peppers, mixed leaves, cucumber and tomatoes, nice texture, a bit of crunch and simply yum! The batter was beautifully cooked. Not too heavy nor thick. A nice thin crispy crunchy batter and it did not retained too much oil after frying. The fish was not over cooked, succulent, juicy and cooked to perfection. The cappuccino was beautifully made. Nice hot milk, just how I like it. Makes a nice change from using very cold milk leaving the coffee luke warm. there is one toilet room available for customers to use. Also have changing station that cater for parent and baby. The facility is kept nice and clean. Always a bonus. Overall, a rather enjoyable and delightful experience. Thank you Salt and Light.

Came across this lovely little café this morning and stopped in for some lunch. Firstly, the staff were phenomenal, some of the most pleasant and welcoming ladies a true blessing to be around! The atmosphere was warm and cosy despite being a popular café it didn't feel crowded. Most importantly the food was delicious, I have a diary allergy and went safe with their vegan all day breakfast which is now going to be a regular for me, was some of the tastiest vegan food I've had. My mother-in-law whom is one of the fussiest eaters I've ever known practically licked her plate after her eggs Benedict (Its rare I've ever seen this women finish a meal in the 14 years I've known her, even her own cooking lol). My 3 year old would highly recommend her baby chino, made to the perfect temp which is not easy! All in all we feel like we've found the gem of a café and I couldn't help but share so that others can enjoy too. Highly recommend ⭐

Open 2 evenings a week. We visited on a Friday evening. An interesting menu. I was tempted by the venison cottage pie but had mackerel with a mango sauce, very tasty. I couldn't resist a dessert - deep fried bread and butter pudding! Amazing!

I recently dined at Ambee's Kitchen, and it was a fantastic experience. The food was rich and aromatic, with freshly baked naan to complement it. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, with tasteful decor and soft lighting that created a relaxed, cozy vibe. A great spot for anyone craving authentic South Asian cuisine in a comfortable setting. Highly recommended!

What a fantastic spot for authentic Indian flavors with a family-friendly vibe!!! The Butter Chicken and Lamb Nihari are rich and flavorful, while vegetarian options like Paneer Tikka are equally satisfying. Don’t miss their Gulab Jamun and Kashmiri Chai for a sweet finish. With a kids’ menu and warm, welcoming staff, it’s a perfect choice for families and food lovers alike. Highly highly highly recommended!

We went in last night as a group of friends. As we are from Asian backgrounds we know what an authentic Pakistani food should taste like and we were not disappointed. The food was fantastic, cooked to perfection, authentic taste and good size portions. It was good value for money and we were served by a very polite member of staff. Will definitely go back

Excellent food and beautiful restaurant. Staff are lovely and very attentive. I had the king prawn curry and was recommended the green beans side- phenomenal. The khotu is amazing too. Sadly the singer arrived just as we were leaving but she was lovely too.

Lovely place! Me and my boyfriend came here for breakfast on a weekday. We had no plans to go anywhere but saw this place and liked how unique it looked! We both had the full breakfast which was very yummy and different to a normal fry up. The waitress serving us was very friendly and made us feel very welcome :) :)

Lovely friendly place, relaxed atmosphere, plenty of vegetarian and vegan options. Good big glasses of juice and my Sri Lankan breakfast was excellent. If I lived in Herne Bay I'd come for one of those every day! Be aware that they close the kitchen at 4 & reopen later for dinners.

Really friendly place, great to pop in for a main at lunch time or a full-on meal for a special occasion. Prices are very reasonable and the quality of the food is superb. We went for a quick lunch with friends this time but looking forward to going back soon for starters as well with the family - looking forward to those garlic prawns. Lovely!

This is a lovely Japanese restaurant with a brilliant takeaway service. We have only tried the Katsu Curry with noodles so far but I’m sure the rest of the menu is equally excellent. The ambiance of the restaurant is excellent and the staff are equally so friendly that they gave me a complimentary dessert of marshmallow fritter with ice-cream. Delicious!!

Nice restaurant and good service. The Thai green curry was very tasty (slightly different form traditional version, more creamy) and comes with rice so good value. Complimentary Thai crackers and the complimentary dessert was a nice touch. Will definitely visit again. A lively lunch.

A superb little place in Herne Bay. If someone prefers to eat delicious Asian foods for reasonable prices, Coconut Tree is a perfect choice. We had crispy aromatic ducks, noodles with mixed seafoods, and Thai green chicken curry. Everything was tasty, and we had good portions. We are going to visit again

Our first visit to Casa Mia and were greeted as though we were their only customers. We hadn't booked, but they did everything to find my wife and I a table given they were fully booked, so on that front, it was excellent service. The restaurant was run very well given the unusual layout and, again, treated us very well indeed. Food was of excellent quality and well presented but surprisingly not too expensive, so even better. If a fault had to be found, then I might say a little salty, although that might just be the type of chosen pizza. Still, the pizza was excellent, and all was consumed. It is most definitely a place to return to when we visit Herne Bay again. Thank you, Casa Mia We live nearly 200 miles away, so whilst visiting family again, my wife and I decided to pop back in to Casa Mia, given that we remembered what it like the last time, and we were not disappointed. Great service and superb pizza. The flavours evoked memories of when we were in Italy, so that would surely tell you something. Not much else to add other than a thank you to the staff there and again, a great pizza restaurant with plenty of accolades and recommendations from professionals, and that surely says something. I'd recommend this place and we'll certainly return for another meal there. Ps, my added photo of a slice of pizza doesn't do it justice. I nearly forgot to get a photo as I was keen to tuck in.

What a gem of a restaurant overlooking Herne Bay sea front. We had a lovely meal comprising pate with onion chutney; chicken with king prawns in a rich creamy sauce with Jersey Royal potatoes and salad; chocolate Truffle cake for dessert: I had cream and Hubby opted for Salted Caramel ice cream. All courses beautifully presented and absolutely delicious.

Me and my wife were given vouchers for Charlie’s back in 2017, we were looking forward to the food as it sounded so good on their website, and they did not fail to please. We plan on coming back here and have told many of our friends about this place. Just looking at the food right now is making me hungry, and I’ve got to crash in bed in a min lol

Dined at Charlie’s on a Sunday afternoon with my partner and two young daughters. Situated just off the seafront, with plenty of parking nearby, Charlie’s is a convenient place to stop and grab a bite. Staff were friendly and efficient and the menu had plenty to choose from at very reasonable prices. My partner and children went for the Carvery, while I opted for the roast beef ciabatta. All very nice, although my roast beef was a little on the gristly side. Would certainly recommend, the outdoor seating area would be very nice on a warm day.

The service was fantastic, amazing and friendly waitresses and the owner came out for a chat too. We used a Groupon voucher and unlike other places where you get treated like second class citizens we were treated like royalty - kudos to the staff. Again even with a Groupon deal the food was really high quality and delicious. The hot fish platter and scallops are must orders!

Gingerbreads is the best cafe around. Our business is based round the corner from Gingerbreads and we often visit for lunch/brunch and afternoon snacks! Food is scrumptious. I would personally recommend their chicken caesar salad. The cakes and cookies they have are delcious! High end service the staff always go the extra mile and are super friendly. I have also had their grazing boxes for a girls day out - quality produce and reasonable prices i would never use anywhere else if i needed an event catered for. Thank you Gingerbreads!

I often phone ahead when I'm out walking my dog Barnaby, holly always has a nice big bacon bap and flat white ready for me and my B. We sit outside and watch the world go by. If I've had a particularly productive week I'll teat myself to one of the home made cakes or loaded cookies -delicious!! Stick to the independents, this place is so much better than the chains
