Excellent food, tasty and well presented. Imaginative starters. The Nepalese touch works well. Highly recommended. The acoustics aren't brilliant if there's a noisy guest two tables away.
Rating: 5 / 5
Very classy place and good food. Nepalese and Indian retro style...

The koyla just opened today under new management and it’s incredible! The goat curry is so delicious—rich and bursting with flavor. The momos are fantastic too, really tasty! The mula ko achar and mango pickle are just wow, the perfect taste that paired so well with my goat curry and rice. The staff were very welcoming, which made the experience even better.Definitely a must visit! I wish I had taken more and better pics I was too eager to devour my meal!

Bojangles Coffee House
116 London Rd, Dunton Green, Sevenoaks TN13 2UT, UK | Coffee Shop P: 01732 455511
Rating: 4.8 (314) Price Level:
I had a super Breakfast Bagel. It was filled with bacon,egg and cheese,not the sliced plastic stuff either, and a pot of tea. My friend had smoked salmon and scrambled eggs on sourdough. We both made Mmmm noises as we appreciated the gorgeous breakfast. Very welcoming staff,but I understand it's best to book as it's become so popular. I'd give it 10/10 Well done Bojangles 👍🏻

My husband and I were sleep deprived, we were so hungry and our two young children were kicking off…the owners couldn’t have been kinder and our New York sandwich was delicious. The croissant they made our children had a heart made out of cucumbers on the side which nearly made me cry which goes to show how burned out we were but how grateful we were too. It really is the small things that go a long way and I highly recommend Bojangles. The coffee was really nice with a decent foam. Even after my toddler having a meltdown, I don’t feel too embarrassed to go back which speaks volumes.
Rating: 5 / 5
An all round great spot. Amazing food every time and coffee that really hits the spot, all delivered by the genial staff. We love a breakfast here to start to our day!

Called in on the way to Minis Bay beach and so glad we did. Off to a good start cafe being dog friendly. Food and drinks we had were very good as was the service . Turned out the owner used to live local to us . Cafe theamed with Lancaster stuff as the bouncing bomb were tested off the coast at Reculver. Good to see places like this still remembering how many air crew lost in WW2 .
Rating: 5 / 5
Great restaurant with friendly staff and welcoming atmosphere. Food was delicious and served in a timely manner. The WW2 decor has a very interesting history and adds an extra charm that you don’t get at a lot of other cafés. 100% recommend if you’re in the area and fancy a tasty brunch!
Rating: 5 / 5
A quirky characterful themed cafe with the tone set by the owner and staff. Well worth a visit. It is a small place so a bit crowded and food took a while but lots to look at while you wait and it was worth waiting for. Generous portions well cooked.

Lovely little place, we stopped off for two toasted sandwiches which came with a small salad and crisps and two lattes. Delicious and only £15, would recommend the cheese and ham toasties which come with cheddar and red Leicester.

This is a real treat of a café. Zara and her partner are so friendly and welcoming. The coffee is great and the food is yum, real homemade treats. We have been going for years with my aunt, but hadn't been in ages, however Zara remembered me and as usual had a lovely warm welcome. It's one of my favourite places in Birchington.

Proper English cafe, real tea proper food lovely service, feels like walking into a family home in the respect that everyone seems to be on first name terms! I had Breakfast No 2 with Scrambled Eggs and extra toast on the side! Went there with my best friend who knew everyone there! If you're looking for delicious food served in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere with ample on street parking, this is the place for you! Popular with locals, and visitors like me alike!

Rating: 5 / 5
To be honest, I read the reviews first before deciding to have my mid-morning breakfast during my one-night stay in Birchington. This little place is a gem! The lady who served me was ever so welcoming - I felt completely at ease! She seems to know all her customers by name and I was delighted to be part of such a warm atmosphere. My breakfast was perfect - I should have had second helpings! I highly recommend Zara's!

Lovely decor, atmosphere which are all aviation themed. Free WiFi on site and on a sunny day you can watch the planes take off and land in the air field outside. There is a field to do dog walking. Highly recommend the cappuccino and flat white. The former vibes with the distinctive plane logo imprint as seen on the photos. Coffee quality is far superior to that found in the chains.

Great tea room. They are dog friendly and have oat milk etc. Vegan offering was on the smaller side, but they have only just opened and I think are building up. It's definitely worth a trip.
