Absolutely adore this place! Me and my partner were so happy we found this during our trip and had become a firm favourite! Will definitely be back next time we’re in the area! Food is absolutely delicious, the atmosphere is lovely with the roaring fire on a cold November morning. The best eggs we’ve had in the UK, and my other half says the French toast with the honeycomb butter is to die for!

Nice little on the way in Canterbury from Canterbury West station. Very friendly staff and lovely cafe. We had breakfast/brunch and ordered the Rancher and the House Smoked Salmon and Avo with two tea. Very good and different from your normal breakfast offerings. Worth a visit.

My friend and I came to this place for a quick lunch. We both ordered a bacon and chicken toast and it tastes really good - probably some of the best toasts I’ve ever had in the UK. The breads are perfectly toasted and delicious - definitely a hidden gem. The price is quite reasonable too.

I had the best breakfast here since the beginning of my stay in the UK. I rate the whole experience very good. The service was nice and helpful. We didn't wait long after placing the order. The dishes were wonderful - fresh, tasty, pleasing to the eye and palate. Compliments to the chef. Delicious coffee. I will definitely come back here, even though the queue in front of the entrance is not getting shorter 😄 It's really worth it!

Incredible food, lovely staff an overall really comfortable dining experience. Highly recommend for a quick breakfast, brunch or lunch.

Very welcoming atmosphere at the coffee shop clear repeated customers coming in and their orders were known by the employees. Very pleasant experience. All the paninis are made fresh to order. Paninis and cakes that I ordered were all of high quality and service was quick and friendly. Would highly recommend!

Very friendly spot for a snack before touring Canterbury. To this American tourist it felt very welcoming and part of a local neighborhood instead of a too-busy, in-and-out, grab-and-go place you might find in town. Besides, we discovered Mr. Blobby!

Been a few times and always been really happy with the service, the food and the drinks! I particularly enjoyed the avo-cuddle and the vegan sausage roll. I will certainly be back!

Jackson Electrical Services Kent Ltd
Unit A, 5 Cooting Rd, Aylesham, Canterbury CT3 3EP, UK | Electrician P: 01227 388177
Rating: 4.9 (37) Price Level:
Jackson Electrical Services Ltd did a fantastic job of fixing a faulty cable in a difficult to access area of our kitchen, which was causing our circuit to trip. The whole process was so easy, with communication from James brilliant from the outset. He managed to squeeze us in during a very busy week and we couldn’t be more delighted with the thorough service, competitive prices and huge wealth of knowledge. If you’re looking for an honest, local and reputable business, then look no further!
Rating: 5 / 5
Jackson Electrical did a great job for us again. I have had the pleasure of using their services for over 5 years now and highly recommend them. The arrangements are easy, and the work is excellent every time, can't thank James and the team enough. Best wishes, Nayomi Taylor - Canterbury

We had a problem with lighting in our downstairs bathroom with the existing fitting tripping the consumer unit. Contacted Jackson Electricals and James was on the case immediately, arriving as he said he would at 9.00am the following morning. I cannot praise his work, attention to detail and prompt response too highly. James is the best electrician I’ve known since buying my first property in 1988. Thanks for a very good job well done at a very reasonable price. Superb service all round. Thanks James

James and his team exceeded our expectations with the installation of LED kitchen lighting in our home. In just 2 hours, they transformed our kitchen with beautiful and functional lighting. Their expertise and swift service come highly recommended!

Rating: 5 (14) Price Level:
Having used Laurence, Steve and Ollie for a number of years across a few different projects, I was thrilled when Laurence mentioned he offered solar panel and battery services now. We have just had 15 panels and 2 batteries installed into a property in Maidstone by Laurence and the team and it's all gone in perfectly. They have great customer care and a good attention to detail. 10/10 - highly recommend.
Rating: 5 / 5
Lawrence and team were a great choice to carry out the supply and install of my solar batteries and car charger. Did their homework on products and my requirements and then came and went efficiently and ensured I knew what I was doing once they'd left! Comms great too and overall a friendly team of professionals. Would def recommend.

I recently had LR Baker Electrical do some electrical work at my home, including a part re-wire, and I couldn't be happier. They are incredibly punctual, professional, and the quality of their work is outstanding. Everything was done to a high standard, they explain things clearly, they use quality materials and pay attention to the details needed to ensure the finished work looks immaculate. Their quoting, billing and communications are all efficient too. I highly recommend them for any electrical work.
Rating: 5 / 5
I couldn’t recommend LR Baker Electricals enough! Great communication, arrived on time and fixed the issue quickly. The guys were really friendly, removed their shoes at the door unprompted and cleaned up behind themselves. Would 100% use again without a second thought.

LR Baker fitted outside garden lighting for us and were incredibly helpful, (I needed plenty of advice). The work done was quick and reliable. Great service and we are delighted with the result.

One Call Electric installed Sockets in my shed (Man Cave) The work carried out was excellent, the armoured cable from the house to shed was installed along the bottom of the garden fence and barely visible. The sockets in the shed were installed exactly where I asked and the trim round the door was laid brilliantly. Super happy with everything they did. Would totally recommend this company.

I used "one call electrical services" for the 2nd time and I was very happy and satisfied with their service again. They were friendly, very professional and very efficient. Thank you, I will call again if I have another challenge and I will highly recommend you. Price and services are very good. Thank you again. Laurent (Sandwich Bar Canterbury)

A job completed absolutely on time and to order, with all points of it very professionally as well as punctually performed. We were struck by the care taken in the scoping out and, thanks to the clear explanations (and documentation) that we received, would have full confidence in the after-sales service which is available if needed. P.S. Six months after those sentences were posted, a second very satisfying recourse to this company enables us to reaffirm every word. The latest job, like the first one, was thoroughly scoped out and very tidily finished. It was an excellent service all the way from initial reconnaissance to installation, with valuable advice at either end of the process about what might best go where.

Great service! Tyrone responded quickly to my enquiry and was even prepared to come out on a weekend. He dealt with the problem quickly and efficiently, explaining everything, and checking that I was happy. Excellent value for money and he left everything tidy afterwards too! Would definitely use TT Electrical again.
Rating: 5 / 5
TT Electrical conducted domestic work for me to a high standard and gave me important safety advice around my current set up. They were able to fit a PIV and cooker extractor fan as well as multiple sockets without any issues. Ty and his colleague were professional and very knowledgeable. No problem was too large for him and I have booked him for further work. Nice guy and great business.

Arby's Café is worth a visit. It's run by the same people as Brook Farm Glamping next door, and they are lovely and helpful. The café is right next to Blean Woods so is ideal to visit as part of a dog walk. The brookie is recommended, as is the nutella crepe. A lovely stop off.
