The Best Cafes in Bredhurst, Kent, United Kingdom (2025)

Came here for a quick breakfast, the food was lovely but it took a ridiculously long time considering there wasn’t many people. The atmosphere was very weird felt like I was not welcome as some of the residents were very rude and hostile towards me and I’ve never felt that any where else.

Hands down, this is the best English breakfast I have ever had. Highly recommended!

Everything about this place is absolutely perfect! ☺️ The staff are truly kind and hospitable! The food was delicious and the portions were great! Thank you so much for being one of the best cafes in England! We’d love to keep coming again!

First time coming here and I would definitely come back again, food was amazing, cafe was very cosy and Sue is lovely. Great customer service x

Great food lovely little farm shop and a great cafe. Cake is scrumptious. Hidden gem of a place

I have cycled to and stopped of here on bike rides. A lovely farm shop that does food, tea and cakes. You can sit inside, on the veranda out the front or in the garden. Staff are friendly and the cakes are my favourite. 🙂

I drove past the tea shop a couple of times and put it on my must visit list. Today was the day i visited. I took 3 friends with me for a morning coffee's. We had a very warm welcome, which was nice, hello's and smiles all around. The staff were very friendly and the service was very good. We ordered a variety of foods/drinks and not forgetting the cakes too. I would recommend this little gem of a tea shop to anyone, I would give it 10 gold stars if i could. We are planning a return visit, we would like to try their lunch menu. I would also recommend ringing ahead to reserve a talbe to save being disappointed.

Nice find, in truth I've driven past many times. No anymore, great food and serve...one tip I woukd book a table if going around lunch time.

Ordered special Melz’s sandwich is really abundant for the ratio/price and very good. Sweet drinks in my opinion are a little too sweet

Friendly, welcoming service. Good food is reasonably priced. Would have been 5 stars if my cup of tea was served pronto.

Family run and friendly 🙂. Good portions and reasonable prices👌. Nice and clean. Definitely worth a visit.

I was so hungry when I arrived at melz kitchen and chose to have the triple bacon burger. I thought it would just be 3 patties bashed together BUT when I recieved this mountain of a burger that was bigger than my hand. The freshness of the burger was out this world. Halfway through the burger I was full. The juicy burgers with cheese just melted in my mouth. I finished the meal with baklava and ice cream. I can Honestly say I have never tasted something so incredibly outstanding then I have this pudding the juicy flakey but crisp baklava with pistachio pieces was out of this world. I even took a portion home for later. The interior was clean and had a lovely smell of fresh cooked products. I would definitely recommend this establishment for a quick pit stop or a family meal. The owners were polite and welcoming. Would definitely come again. Child friendly too which was a bonus

Whenever we have a Cafe Breakfast, this is the only place we go to. Been coming here for years, the food and service is consistently of a high standard.

The best cafe in Gillingham. My daughter loves it! ❤️ The Food is fantastic and the staff are wonderful. 10/10.

Love coming here food is amazing

Easily one of my favourite places to get breakfast. Me and my partner usually come every other weekend for a full English breakfast and we have never been disappointed. Great food, fast service, good coffee and friendly staff, what more could you want? No photos because my breakfast was eaten by the time I thought to leave a review.

A friendly place with tasty food and fast service. The food was very nice, my only possible criticism would be with regards to the sausages. As I often say the sausages in most cafes are the plain bland ones and I would much prefer some better quality in the sausage department.

Best English breakfast , from professional and kind people...Try it once and you will definitely come back

Really nice time and chips with my daughter x

Ordered online, food took about 40 mins including delivery and was absolutely wonderful. Piping hot, cooked to perfection, so delicious! Best breakfast I have in a long time. Highly recommended!!

We celebrated our friends 80th birthday with a brilliant lunch. Just four of us and it could not have been better. The staff were just great. Thank you from Steve, Maureen, Diane and Linda(80)

Best breakfast/lunch in Gillingham! Food is amazing, coffee is delicious served in a big mug, absolutely loved it! And owners/chef are Friendly.

Delicious food. We had the Special breakfast, Full burger and a couple of berry smoothies. Everything was very tasty, generous portions. Lovely and friendly service. The place had a nice vibe as well. Would definitely recommend.

I went here for afternoon tea with some friends and it was absolutely fantastic! I'd definitely recommend for a local afternoon tea, I had the vegetarian option and my friends the standard and we all loved it! They change the options every so often - we had the summer menu afternoon tea.

My daughter wanted Pancakes for breakfast so I said we could go out. We had a look online and found a couple of places nearby, but the picture of the pancakes at Nutmegs won her over. We easily booked a table online and when we arrive it was easy to locate our table with our name on. The staff were friendly and attentive and we were given a menu on a wooden clipboard which along with the atmosphere made the place feel luxury. We ordered pancakes and the halloumi and shrooms. The food was delicious and we stayed for ages chatting and taking our time to enjoy breakfast. It was a really nice way to start the day. We'll be back thank you

Lovely food.friendly staff. The homemade Sweet chilli jam on the toasted sandwich was delicious. Definitely worth a visit. Another visit today for breakfast and was not disappointed

Went for their Mexican evening with a guest chef. Really good, can’t wait for their next event. Have also brunched here many times always good and quality food

Came here with my two dogs on the second day of the opening under the new owner. Love the decor. Dog bowls on the floor, free dog treats and tables and chairs outside with lovely throws to use. I had a really tasty jacket potato and a beautiful home made cake. Has a good selection of gluten free and vegan options of savoury and sweet items. Throughly recommend

A far cry from a truckers café, this local coffee house offers a cosy seating area with a modest menu. The interior is well decorated. There is a standard selection of hot items with a range of cakes that also cater to vegan requirements. Parking is easily found on the road, or it's a walk away for local residents who tend to come here and socialise in small groups. Prices are what you would expect.

We all had a lovely afternoon tea at Baskervilles Coffee House. The traditional tea had a good selection of savoury and sweet treats. The child's tea also had a good selection, having changed the sandwich fillings to known favourites. Our dog certainly enjoyed her afternoon tea too and it was great to be able to give her something designed for her instead of snuffling our sausage rolls. The staff were really happy, polite and chatty. This is a wonderful little coffee shop and a great place to visit if you want to sit with your dog.

Lovely vegan breakfast 😀 Will certainly be going back again. Friendly staff and a great selection of vegan cakes too! Dog friendly also which always gets bonus points in my opinion! Highly recommend.

Great tea room with a traditional feel. I've had fresh sandwiches, scones and cakes from here and all of them were delicious! Great service and great atmosphere - can't go wrong! 100% recommend

A lovely place on the first floor. Extremely friendly staff and a great selection of food. We came for some Afternoon Tea : the homemade sandwiches were absolutely delicious, the scones were perfect and the cakes were maybe a little too much by the end but nonetheless great. If one thing could be improved it's the choice of drinks with the afternoon tea (only one type of coffee or tea) but that's only a small note. Would recommend without doubt!

We popped in for hot chocolate. It was late in the day and they were close to closing but still welcomed us. If you're going to have hot chocolate, have the posh one ( see photos ) it tastes as good as it looks. I also had a slice of coffee cake, delish! They do afternoon teas and after this little sample , that is definitely on the cards. The staff were all polite,smart and efficient. The venue is upstairs so has a narrow entrance, find the bright pink sweet shop in the high street turn around and you'll see the entrance.

This was delightful! Hidden away above the shops is a quaint little café that boasts traditional English food and quality service. Just perfect for a cold winter’s day - warmed by a hot cup of tea, delicious tuna melt and cake. I can thoroughly recommend this place, even if you have to wait on the stairs - it’s worth it. I shall definitely be returning!

Great place for authentic Italian food. The pizzas and other food ordered like risotto were very well presented and tasted good. All fresh produce, the service was relaxed and friendly. Good wine selection. It's great for large groups or lone diners. Reasonabley priced too. Clean and well presented. Definitely would recommend visiting here.

This restaurant is STUNNING. My favourite place I’ve been to so far in Rochester. The only downside (for me) was the lack of main meal options. I’m not a fan of meat, and they only had meat options. The chef did end up making me a vegetarian option which was a cauliflower steak with roasted veg, which was really lovely of him. But I would love for a chicken option. The bruschetta was the best thing I’ve ever flipping tasted like OH MY. And the staff are WONDERFUL.

What a lovely place for Saturday brunch in Rochester. Very good menu options, including vegan and gluten-free. I enjoyed my pea and mint soup, and the staff was very attentive to my food intolerance. My friend enjoyed vegetarian truffle pastry with veg and mashed potatoes. Very nice and clean restaurant, lovely ambient and staff.

Located in Rochester town. This was a perfect place for a brunch getaway. The place is beautiful, the atmosphere is luxurious but relaxing. The service was spot on. Of course the food was nice and the produce was fresh. I couldn't fault this place. It's slightly pricey, but you pay what you get for. Highly recommended and will definitely get back. It's one of my new top places.
