I had a lovely festive evening out recently! The food was top-notch, especially the spaghetti carbonara and the baked chocolate cookie dough – both were delicious and presented beautifully. The atmosphere was exactly what I hoped for, really festive and welcoming. Although the service was generally warm and friendly, the speed could have been a tad quicker, but it didn’t ruin the experience. Overall, I can't wait to return for more of those tasty dishes!

I recently visited and had a brilliant time! The food was fantastic, and the atmosphere really made the evening special. The service was top-notch; the team was friendly and attentive, ensuring I had everything I needed. One area for improvement would be the drink menu – I’d love to see more sugar-free options added. Overall, it was a great experience, and I can't wait to return!

I booked this place for my partner’s birthday a couple of months ago. From the food to the atmosphere, everything was spot on. The starters as well as the mains were exquisite, and the service was impeccable. We did get slightly interrupted by an unwanted guest (a bee), but the staff handled it well! The food we ordered was: calamari and bruschetta (for the starter) and steak+fries as well as seafood risotto. I could not recommend this place more!

Food was excellent. The staff make it even more special. I had the seafood linguine which had so much seafood but just needed a bit more depth in flavour with the tomato sauce. Drink prices quite high but expected. As my daughter's birthday they also put a candle on her dessert.

The staff are so attentive and wonderful. I have been a number of times with either just my wife or the whole family. The kitchen produce some fantastic quality food at very reasonable prices. Well worth a visit.

Tried this place for the very first time and it won’t be the last. Food was lovely. Not greasy. We were first in on a Sunday morning and although it was chilly in there they soon warmed it up. I had the veggy breakfast as you cannot swap items and I don’t like bacon. Every set breakfast had bacon. That is my only complaint. Not bad eh? There were five of us and everyone’s food was hot, delicious and plentiful. Will definitely be back.

Always a pleasant experience! I've never known a cafe with such a varied menu. From toasted sandwiches to a full roast dinner and all at fair prices, and you are always treated like one of the family!

Simple yet extremely tasty and filling. This cafe hits the spot but does lack some ambience. The food is cooked to perfection and the iced coffee is fabulous! Would recommend to anyone in need of a pick me up or just hearty good food 👍🏼!

Great atmosphere as made welcome by the staff and when they celebrated a member of staffs birthday, they brought us some cake as part of the celebrations for free. Warm, genuine friendly people with a good breakfast discount card scheme.

Gorgeous decor, we were able to choose our table near the fireplace which was so cosy and warm. The pub wasn't overcrowded which makes us easy to chat with friends. FOH was very attentive, friendly and polite. The food was delicious but I found the portions a bit small. I would return back for sure.

Went here to celebrate my father-in-law's birthday, and we all enjoyed our food. The staff were very friendly and even wrote out a birthday card for him. Everyone had empty plates, even with sharing starters and having dessert. The food was filling and didn't make you feel like you'd eaten too much. Will definitely be returning in the near future.

A very pleasant country pub with comfortable seating in both the large restaurant and in the pub section. There is also plenty of seating outside and a good sized free car park. The menu is mainly English fare, fish and chips, various burgers but also meals with vegetables and potatoes. The food is mid priced eg. Fish and chips is around £17. I received good service from the waiting staff and my food came up in good time. I didn't feel rushed at all and after my meal I sat in the bar area for a coffee where there were some nice comfortable soft chairs. There are good options for vegetarians here. There is a weekday set menu offering 2 or 3 courses and there are some daily specials.

A brilliant pub, the staff are so friendly, attentive and helpful and the food is amazing. We had a buffet for my daughter's 18th celebration and family/friends who came were all raving about the food and the staff helped us decorate. Shout out to Millie, Vicky and Emily (I think!) But all staff so helpful. Highly recommend this place.

We've visited so many times over the past few years, and it never disappoints. My wife, daughter, and I enjoyed an incredible roast dinner. The staff here are always welcoming and go above and beyond to ensure a great experience. The warm atmosphere and consistently excellent food keep us coming back. A big thank you to the wonderful team.

We've known Chris many years. He installed a downstairs shower, toilet and basin, we've called on him a number of times for routine plumbing jobs; his skills also include tiling and floor installation and fitting a water softener. We have no qualms about recommending him for both plumbing and general installation work.

We recently visited Spice Lounge in Coxheath, and while it didn’t blow us away, it offered a pleasant evening overall. The food was decent, with a few highlights. We tried the Chicken Tikka Masala (Madras Hot), Chicken Tikka Dhansak, and the Chicken Chadga – the latter being a house special. The Chadga stood out with its vindaloo-level heat balanced by layered flavors that offered more than just spice/heat. The rest of the dishes were nice, nothing extraordinary but also nothing to criticise. The service, however, was excellent. The waiters were polite, attentive, and friendly, striking the perfect balance of being helpful without interrupting conversations. It made the meal feel relaxed and enjoyable. The ambiance was comfortable, with pleasant music and tasteful decor that added to the atmosphere. Unfortunately, the restaurant's single toilet, located near the dining area, detracted from the experience. It felt awkwardly placed and a little intrusive, which could use some rethinking. Overall, Spice Lounge provided good value for money. The friendly service and solid house special make it worth a visit if you're in the area. Rating: 4.4 out of 6 Six Poppadoms Please #6PP

It was a nice experience. We only went to the restaurant for food and didn't stay in the rooms so cannot comment on those. The staff were friendly and attentive. Service was really quick. The food was presented nicely, tasted good, and portions were a good size. There was a varied menu so you could find something to eat for most dietary requirements. It was a tad on the expensive side in my opinion, which is why the rating is 4/5*. We went for the 5 plates for £32 between 2 of us which was a good amount of food. There was lots of free parking available. Inside the restaurant was clean and rustic. Quite pretty with the decor. There is a nice outside area too. It was busy but not too loud that we couldn't hear what members of our group were saying. There were kids there so I'd say yes it's family-friendly.

First visit to the Potting Shed, a large indoor restaurant with plenty of seating inside and out in the garden. Plenty of parking too. Waitress was very friendly and efficient. I ordered the pizza Caesar, which came with a smoked salmon, anchovies and rocket topping. I ordered extra anchovies for a small price. I was not disappointed, the pizza was lovely and it was a good size too. My friends both ordered the steak ciabatta but both were disappointed at the amount of cheese which sat on top of the steak. They considered the price a little on the high side. The bill included a 12.5% service charge too. I would definitely visit again to enjoy one of their pizzas. The menu was quite extensive and it was difficult to make a choice.

We ate here last night as the food at our hotel wasn't very good. The parking was great and it waa easy to find We had the best pizza we've had for a long time and the value for money was brilliant. It cost half what we paid at our hotel the night before and the quality of the food and service was far superior at the potting shed. If we're in the area again we will definitely be back.

Excellent service which is what I've come to expect at all the Elite pubs. Good value food and drink and nothing is too much trouble. Stayed 2 nights here which were very clean and felt very luxurious for the money.

A nice place to go for some food and a coffee. We went on a late Sunday morning for brunch and it was my first time going. I was not sure what the setup was with going to order your food/drink yourself. Could have had a little sign or one of the staff just letting me know but I figured it out in the end. The food and drink I don't have any complaints with as it was great. The apple juice tasted like I just put a straw in an apple. And the full English was lovely and fresh also with some amazing bacon. I would have liked to have a fried egg but they could only offer scrambled on the day. Overall a great place to eat and get a coffee. Would recommend.

Employees were very nice and welcoming. I ordered an almond milk latte and toast which was good (it’s kinda hard to f up toast). The latte tastes a lot like the one from Costa, not very strong

I visited Zizzi in Maidstone East with friends for a birthday celebration, and it turned out to be a delightful experience overall. We had pre-booked a table and arrived around 6 PM. The atmosphere was inviting and aesthetic, perfectly suited for a celebratory evening. The food was delicious, and everyone in our group enjoyed the dishes we ordered. However, I personally felt that the main course took slightly longer than expected to arrive – about 30 minutes – which tested our patience a bit. Despite this, the staff were friendly and attentive, ensuring we were comfortable throughout our meal. Zizzi offers a lovely setting for gatherings with friends, blending great food with a warm, pleasant ambiance. While the service timing could improve, it's still a place I would recommend for a relaxed and enjoyable dining experience.
