Such a lovely homely cafe. The breakfast was just what we wanted. A classic greasy spoon, with speedy service and a smile. Highly recommend if you’re in the area, great spot for a quick bite with family/friends/children etc.

We had a lovely and very tasty breakfast at Jels Cafe. The milkshake was amazing. The staff are all nice and friendly and happily provided a bowl of water for our puppy. We sat outside under the awning and enjoyed our food. Would recommend.

I came in for lunch with family I hadn't seen in a while as we'd heard good things about Jel's Cafe. A good number of options to choose from, I had a large English breakfast and a sanpellegrino lemon, whereas everyone else had jacket potatoes. I got hash browns and black pudding as extra as it didn't come as standard, but the meal still was reasonably priced. My aunt commented saying the jacket potato was the best one she's ever had outside of home cooking, so will be back to try that myself!

Jon is our go-to for things we need doing that are beyond our DIY capabilities. We've used his Me Time services 6 or 7 times now. He does a v professional, meticulous job of anything he turns his hand to. Definitely recommended!

Huge thanks to Jon at Me-Time for helping us out in a fix. Second time he's ridden to the rescue for work around our house. Quick, affordable and affable - what more could you ask for!

I have used Me Time on several occasions for electrical work and various other things including laying bathroom flooring. All the work Jon has carried out for me has been to a very high standard and always value for money, I would not hesitate in recommending Jon and his company as they are reliable, trustworthy and offer a standard of workmanship which is hard to find these days. It is so nice to be able to call one company that deal with many different aspects of home improvements and being able to deal the electrical side of things at the same time has been so helpful, no separate call out fees and having lots of different trade people at your home. So glad I found Jon, thank you so much.

Jon was really friendly, tidy and turned up on time and stayed a bit longer than planned to finish the work. I would happily recommend him.

First time visiting The View, it exceeded expectations! The food was so good you forgot that is was cooked by students. The services was fantastic and nothing was too much trouble. The décor is also of great quality and all topped of with a wonderful view! Will definitely be back.

P: 01732 360382

I have to give the Bakehouse 5 stars for their bread alone: their wholemeal and their light rye are (very consistently) the best sourdough I've had: excellent flavour, fluffy texture and a crispy, chewy crust. What is disappointing is that I can't eat more of their bread: they're only open until 2:30pm, 4 days a week (and not on Sunday) and they sell out of bread most days.

Decent Coffee here and nice inside but unfortunately Not Dog Friendly so you have to sit on the street.....real shame

Authentic and cosy, The Bakehouse is a lovely place to have a croissant with coffee or a tasty sourdough bread with poached eggs. Probably the most delicious sourdough I have ever had. Their espresso is impressively good. A few charging points for the laptop professionals are available on the 1st floor. If you visit Tonbridge, I would definitely recommend breakfast at The Bakehouse at 124.

Ridings Café

Seems to be the only cafe in Hildenborough. I love the vibe of a local place in its lovely light olive green decor. Staff is helpful and at ease, and I felt relaxed enjoying my lunch. Food and drink are good overall, and prices lower than Tonbridge and Tunbridge Wells, which is a plus and I come here quite often even I am not a local resident.

I've been wanting to visit here for some time, but hadn't got around to it, I'm glad I did and will not leave it long before revising, it is a lovely cafe. The space outside to take our little dog was excellent. Service was certainly with a smile, but the food hits the spot. Toasted falafel and humus wrap was lovely but the Super Strawberry milkshake a glorious indulgent treat. Not just a treat for us but we also noted a group of workmen tucking into some breakfast baps and the bacon and egg varieties did look delicious. It is great to have a place like this in Hildenborough, clearly popular and deserved so.

Gurkha Valley

First trip here and was pleasantly suprised. Definitely worth booking for 7pm on a Saturday because by 8pm it was full. Reasonable price too, £63 for two glasses of wine, momo veg and a mixed starter, all very tasty. Aloo Bodi Tama Tarkari was very tasty, and the Chicken Rogan was delicious but for the chicken being a little dry. The dish of the night was the Tarka dhal side which was lovely and creamy as it should be. Super nice staff, I imagine this place is going to get better too, I've been to more upmarket Indian/Nepalese restaurants that need to learn a thing or two from Gurkha Valley, both in terms of taste and price. Will revisit.

We’ve just had a delicious meal. I had the chicken dumplings starter which was delicious and then the traditional Nepalese meal that was a lamb curry, with lots of accompaniments and was really tasty…it was lovely to be advised about the different dishes…favourite restaurant! Thanks

Absolutely amazing food, especially the onion bhaji. Great to have the choice of Indian and Nepalese cuisines, a mixture ordered on our table of four. Everything was hot, well presented and the spice flavours defined each dish perfectly. Will definitely be back as it will now be our favourite place to eat in Tonbridge. Thank you for a lovely evening

New management & new restaurant so had waited a bit but now I know we shouldn't have. The restaurant was lovely and clean, lovely staff who helped me choose something I have never chosen. I had the lamb special and my husband got the mixed special and dumplings along with other side dishes. It was absolutely delicious! Generous portions, lovely and hot and the lamb was lush. The onion bajjis were enormous so obviously we ordered too much so we now have a delicious lunch for tomorrow too. Will definitely be coming back and telling everyone to visit too.

We visited The Old Fire Station Café in Tonbridge on a Saturday morning and had a delightful experience. From the moment we arrived, we were warmly welcomed, and our dog was made to feel just as at home as we were, with free dog treats on offer! The coffee was excellent, and the breakfast was equally impressive – fresh, tasty, and beautifully presented. The staff were friendly and attentive, creating a relaxed and inviting atmosphere. If you’re looking for a dog-friendly spot with great food and coffee, this café is a gem. We’ll definitely be back and highly recommend it to others!

A nice chill place for meet-ups and coffee. Unfortunately, there were no vegan or dairy-free options for savoury dishes (and for sweet-only a slice of fruit loaf which they said was milk-free), so I had a bag of crisps with my friends while they had nice toasties and cake for lunch. Would go again for coffee though.

Love this place! It's somewhere I'm happy to go into on my own. Tasty bacon rolls, toasted sandwiches, cakes (the best brownies) Lovely hot chocolate on a chilly day. It's welcoming. They also cater for functions. We had my daughters 50th birthday party here, we all had a good time, including the owners/staff. Thoroughly recommend!

Everything about Ela Bella deserves 5 stars. My companion has been twice before and upon arrival the maître d' and waitron recognised her with a warm hello and welcome back. We enjoyed the Sunday special which was delicious with generous portion sizes. The music was at the perfect volume; creating just the right ambiance. We all agreed that we will be back!
