We visited the Fat Ox in Tenterden today, having won a meal for two on a facebook competition.. we would have happily paid for the meal as it was all amazing. We both had the pork belly with crackling, pigs in blankets on the side, one portion was plenty for two to share, and a Biscoff cheesecake for pudding. We both had clean plates and were really impressed. The pub was busy and had a lovely atmosphere.. Landlady Amy and her barmaid Hannah were really friendly and provided fantastic service. Would definitely go back!

The food was great with very generous portions. The staff were lovely. My only slightly negative comment was the overpowering smell of bleach which was a bit off putting. If we were in the area again we would certainly return.

Good food and prices, conveniently located close to the city centre. I went to The Beano Cafe for a late morning breakfast consisting of scrambled eggs, two slices of toast, a portion of chips and a can of fizzy pop. The cost was only £7.00. The chips were particularly nice, crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. I would recommend this cafe. If you found this review helpful, please click on the heart icon, thanks.

Best place for breakfast, absolutely brilliant every time I visit. The coffee is the best I've tried in canterbury, not sure why it's so good but it is. I've been to most cafes in canterbury now and this is by far the best. The food is always hot and fresh, very little wait time, service is always spot on and one of the best places for prices. Seriously, try this place, at least for a fry-up if nothing else.

my go-to for a good cooked breakfast. Never disappoints, always with great service and delicious food. Clean inside too. 5/5 I tried all the cooked breakfasts I could find in Canterbury over the last year or so, to see what’s best. Beano wins :)

Canterbury is brimming with history and charm, but sometimes a hungry tourist needs a good breakfast to fuel their adventures. That's where the Beano Cafe swoops in, saving the day with a breakfast spread that's as mighty as Dennis the Menace' scraper bike. My inner child did a little jig when I saw the name, and the menu did not disappoint. I opted for the classic English brekkie, and let me tell you, it was a full-on feast for a champion. The sausage were juicy and plump, they burst with flavour in every bite. The egg was cooked as expected, their golden yolks begging to be mopped up with the accompanying toast. The bacon added a salty touch, while the baked beans offered a welcome touch of sweetness. But the real surprise was the fried bread. Golden and fluffy on the inside, it had a satisfyingly crispy exterior. It was the perfect vessel for scooping up beans, mopping up egg yolk, or simply savoring on its own. The toast, perfectly toasted and generously buttered, provided a more traditional option for those who prefer a less adventurous approach. The Beano Cafe isn't just about the food. The entire experience is a delightful homage to the world of Beano comic books. From the quirky decor to the friendly staff who seem to have stepped straight out of the pages, it injects a playful energy into the breakfast routine. Whether you're a Beano enthusiast or simply looking for a hearty and delicious breakfast in Canterbury, the Beano Cafe is a must-visit. The food is fantastic, the atmosphere is fun, and it's the perfect way to start your day with a smile. Just be warned, this breakfast is fit for a hero, so come hungry!

I have been here many times and always had a good experience. The food is delicious and staff helpful and friendly. The outside seating is on loose stone with some shade and inside are a few large tables for a big group. The venue is varied and GF and vegans are catered for.

Heavenly cakes. Happy & friendly staff. Tadpole makes a great meeting place for walks and is dog-friendly. [Update] Croque madame to die for and the most gorgeous lemon drizzle cake.

We had a wonderful, early evening tour of the vineyard. Andrew was a fun and knowledgeable tour guide and we thoroughly enjoyed the wine-tasting and delicious 3-course meal in The Swan on-site restaurant afterwards. Would thoroughly recommend the Luxury Dining Experience as we also came home with a complimentary bottle of bubbly!

Just could not wait to savour their lovely food this this not so insta ready pics 🤣🤣🤣 We LOVE the food at This Ancient Boro and they never disappoint! So far our favourites are the salt & pepper squid, bavette steak in yummy sauce, garlic gambas, garlic mushrooms, pardon peppers, créma catalans, lemon tart, sticky toffee pudding & more. Sarah’s team is super nice with a special thank you to Freya & Rosie last Sunday. Oh, and they’re 100% dog friendly too 😊 Highly & wholeheartedly recommended!!!

This Ancient Boro The best roast and tapas we’ve had for YEARS!! We were lucky enough to be treated to a delicious Sunday lunch by Sarah, the owner of the pub, while we’re taking care of Raffles and Florence for her & Mark. OMG WHAT A TREAT!!! It was really like being in Spain ☀️ Our neighbours at the table next to us were laughing because we just couldn’t stop saying how good it all was 😅 As a bonus, the whole staff was brilliant: attentive, helpful, kind. HIGHLY recommended. If you’re local to Tenderden: book your table now! If you’re coming from further afield: it’s 100% worth the drive!

This is an excellent little pub. The beers are well kept with a good selection that changes regularly and can be sampled as a tray of thirds. The same for ciders although I haven't tried those yet. The staff are very welcoming. As for the tapas...wow! We're gradually working our way through the menu and have not been disappointed once. Excellent real ales and authentic tapas, what more could you want.

Wow! What a little ray of Spanish sunshine in the middle of Kent. The food and service is absolutely perfect, I highly recommend the Gambas pil pil. The biggest and juiciest prawns I’ve ever eaten. All that was missing was the Mediterranean Sea. Thank you Ancient Boro.

Oriole Cafe

Perfect stop for coffee and a light lunch ☕️🥪 Tucked away in the corner of the Kent cricket ground Oriole Cafe next to the Sainsbury’s express. It’s a lively cafe with a good selection of brunch and light lunch options in addition to coffee, smoothies and chilled drinks. Parking is limited outside the cafe but there is additional space inside the cricket grounds.

Beautiful coffee shop with a cricket ground view. Sun is just facing the cafe. Planty of natural lights and lots of indoor plants inside. They have outdoor sitting and WiFi, too. They have allocated parking for the customers. Accessible toilate with separate baby change room . Also, a book shelf with books and a few toys and crayons for kids.

Oriole is the kind of find you selfishly feel you don’t want to share while wanting to shout about because they deserve to succeed. I spotted the discrete chalk board beyond Sainsbury’s car park beyond the cricket club doors and ventured forth. Walked in and felt …wow! What a breath of fresh air! Spacious seating looking out on Kent cricket green. Literally a small window cleverly left ajar keeping air circulation feeling fresh and covid safe. Loved my flat white with oat and tuna melt, served with small side salad. And where else gives you a glass of fresh water to wash it all down. If your local, be sure to get your Oriole loyalty card. Oriole is an welcome oasis on a busy day,

I was really impressed with cafe solo. We went there for breakfast and I really couldn't fault the food - I wanted a good fry up and that's exactly what I got. The milkshake here is also some of the best I've had around Canterbury, actually made using ice cream with a dollop of cream on top. The only reason I haven't put 5 stars for the food is because it didn't wow me like my other 5 star reviews, but it was still very decent. The staff were super friendly but gave us the space we wanted to eat together, the space was clean, and we were even surprised with complimentary Turkish delight. Overall, would recommend. They have a small carpark, but there are supermarkets nearby.

Me and my friends stopped by this lovely restaurant for lunch and it was absolutely amazing. The guy who served was so polite and the environment was so friendly. Cute interior giving out retro vibes.The food was in hearty portions and the cappuccino was out of my expectation! The froth was perfect and airy with the chocolate powder dusted evenly on top. I highly recommend this place if you want something simple but delicious.

My family and I had a lovely breakfast in this cafe. The staff are very friendly and welcoming, special shout out to Megan 1.0 for looking after us so beautifully.

If Google could do more than 5 stars this place would get it. Upon arriving I got welcomed at the front door and seated. I think it’s a family run business because they take pride in everything they do. Food was wonderful Staff polite Cafe very clean There’s only two cafe’s I would take my wife too and this is one of them.

Lazix café

P: Not available

Lovely cafe in the heart of Canterbury. The space inside is not a lot but there is a large covered terrace where it’s very pleasant to enjoy a meal or a drink. The food we ordered was nice, but the waiting time was quite long I would say (half an hour for some eggs). Nice cakes and teas too. I would stop again in a less busy day. Dog friendly.

Lazix has quickly become my favourite place to visit in Canterbury for a cake and a catch up with friends. For five visits I've had quick, friendly service every single time. The menu has a great range of choices, although the chocolate orange cake is so addictively gorgeous that I tend to get that most of the time. It tastes like jaffa cakes turned into a tiered cake and is amazing! The outside seating upstairs on the terrace is also lovely in sunny weather. Highly recommend!

Review: This café in Canterbury is clearly a local favorite, and it’s easy to see why! We visited during the early lunch hour, and it was buzzing with people, but there were plenty of tables available, including a cozy outdoor area with a covering. The service was excellent despite the busy atmosphere, and we had the best chai we’ve ever tasted—rich, aromatic, and perfectly spiced. Although we didn’t get a chance to try the food, the dishes we saw being served looked absolutely delicious. Definitely worth a visit for a great drink and lively ambiance!

Lazix Café is a hidden gem! I thoroughly enjoyed their Benedict egg ham and delicious bagel, both bursting with flavor and prepared to perfection. The cafe boasts a great vibe and charming interior decoration, creating a cozy atmosphere perfect for relaxing or catching up with friends. Their coffee is also noteworthy—smooth, rich, and expertly brewed, it complements the tasty food offerings wonderfully. The staff at Lazix Café are friendly and attentive, ensuring a pleasant dining experience from start to finish. Whether you're stopping by for breakfast, brunch, or a casual coffee break, Lazix Café delivers on quality and ambiance. For a delightful culinary experience with great food, coffee, and ambiance, Lazix Café is definitely worth a visit. Five stars well-deserved!

Was visiting with a friend and hopped in for some afternoon tea, the staff were so helpful with advising us about portion sizes and I can say- they were right! One serving of afternoon tea was more than enough between the two of us. The Raspberry Apple scone was delicious and so large we almost couldn’t finish it, and the finger sandwiches were so fresh with classic fillings! We got the Tiny Tim’s House-blend for our tea and loved it. Overall, Cosy Interiors, great food and excellent service:))

Quirky Super place, first time customer and we're be returning next time we are in Canters. Staff were excellent, friendly, professional and the service received was top notch. Teas were really nice, certainly different and there was plenty for two cups. Scones were of a good standard although one totally fell into pieces. Jam and butter were superb. £35 for 2 x teas, 1 x coffee & 3 x scones. Expensive, maybe, but was quality 👍

My favourite place to take visiting friends and family in Canterbury. No need to pre-book. The cheese scones are super delicious, I keep going back just for them. I've tried different teas, they never disappoint. Nuts allergy friendly.

Stayed here as part of a wedding party. For the wedding the ceremony, the dinner and disco took place in the same room with staff changing everything to make it appropriate for the next leg of the service. Staff were very accommodating and friendly going above and beyond to help out. Rooms were nice and clean, bathroom had a shower only but water was nice and hot. As the building is old some of the floorboards are a bit creaky and you might hear next door from time to time. This is not often or loud enough to be a problem.

We purchased a Virgin experience voucher for a weekend hen do with Chapel Down Winery and a one night stay at Little Silver hotel included. Trying to navigate a hen do of 17 people was quite the challenge, but Little Silver went above and beyond to assist us. Numerous emails back and forth, arrangement of transportation, several dietary requirements and numerous requests, Little Silver did not disappoint. The hotel was clean, spacious and eccentric. Diane went above and beyond to make sure everything was organised and our dinner and breakfast was a success. Thank you to the Little Silver staff for a great stay albeit short!

Stayed here as part of a Virgin wine experience tour and the staff made us feel very welcome. The service when we had dinner and breakfast was very good and the food was very nice and great value. My only criticism would be that the beds are too soft, but that is just personal preference. I highly recommend a stay here.
