We visited for the first time today and everything was spot on and made the 35 minute journey from Rochester worthwhile. The coffee is as good as it gets and the food every bit as good as well. I had the Breakfast Burger which was very tasty and my partner had the Rarebit Crumpets which were every bit as as good. Most importantly the staff were all happy and informative and all in all it made for a great experience.

Had a wonderful lunch for two today at this delightful cafe. The Cali-Benny from the Specials Board and the Bacon Sarnie were perfectly cooked and delicious, all quality ingredients too and a lovely choice of drinks to choose from. Service was excellent and the latte coffee simply cannot be beaten, best coffee I’ve ever had!

The presentation of the food was amazing and all the items on the menu sounded delicious! The staff were very polite and it was a very relaxed atmosphere. It can be busy at times though, but you are able to reserve a table if you wish. It was a lovely experience and I would recommend this place to anyone who’s thinking of going. 🙂

Linear Electrical are the best tradespeople we’ve ever used. Matt was professional, completely reliable, and incredibly friendly while offering very competitive pricing. We contacted Linear with a few issues which were not straightforward and Matt took the time to take us through all the options and what would be best. Nothing was too much trouble and when the work was done it was to a very high standard, with the area left very tidy. I would recommend Linear Electrical to everyone - fantastic service.

We had a fused spur burn out. Matt was able to fit us in same day and resolve the problem in a quick and cost effective way. Highly recommend. Thank you Matt!

Over the years we have had a lot of electrical work carried out by different electricians, some better than others. Matt carried out a full electrical survey of the house, identified a few faults, carried out some remedial work and fitted 2 external lights. He is very knowledgeable and meticulous in all his work, and it is nice to have everything working properly and know that it is all safe. Matt is highly professional, turned up exactly when he he said he would, and left all the areas where he worked clean and tidy. I would highly recommend.

Chris has completed two jobs for us. Installing a electric hob and replacing all lights and fan in bathroom. He was efficient, very reasonably priced and great attention to detail. Wouldn't hesitate to use again.

Really excellent work done in a few hours in my first full day in my new flat- radiators replaced with a simple, slick replacement as requested, new light fittings from the choice kindly provided, new bathroom light which was really needed and a good replacement too - very reasonable rate indeed. This has provided a wonderful start in my new home.

Chris recently completed a job chasing in new plugs and switches for us. From start to finish Chris was fantastic. He was quick to answer my call, send across a quote and book me it at an appropriate time. He was polite, tidy, and talked me through what he was doing at each stage. He was also super friendly and very competitively priced. It turned out to be quite a long job but Chris went above and beyond to ensure it was done before the plasterers arrived. I would not hesitate to recommend Eldred electricals and will definitely be using their services in the near future.

These guys are great. Adam seems super organised making all the arrangements for the visits I needed, and Luke was an excellent plumber, and very personable guy, who resolved the issues, fitting the new parts quickly and very professionally as soon as they arrived. I highly recommend.

We had our downstairs cloakroom completely refitted. The quote for the work was provided quickly and in detail. The work was completed in a timely fashion and was completed to a very high standard. We were consulted at all stages of the work and the staff were always polite. Where needed they bought the materials required for the refit. At each stage of the work the area was left clean and tidy. I would recommend Plumbing Angels without hesitation.

I phoned Adam in an emergency with water leaking from my boiler about 17:00, and going away for a few days the following morning. He was able to offer a plumber between 8:00 and 10:00 the following morning. Suggested turning off the boiler which slowed the leak down to a slow drip that we could collect. Neil duly arrived and identified the problem. Part required that he knew would not be in stock, but he was able to stop it dripping. Upon our return we turned on the immersion to give us hot water only to discover it was not working. A phone call to Adam produced Luke the a couple of days later (we returned on a week-end) to replace the immersion and the next day Darren to replace and test the required boiler part. We now have a fully functioning boiler and emergency immersion heater. All plumbers were friendly, professional and did superb jobs. Adam organised speedy responses, and charged sensible prices for quick responses. Thank you Cannot praise the Company highly enough.

Needed help with my elderly mum's temperamental boiler. Plumbing Angels sent me Alex the same day, who had a careful dig around in the boiler, diagnosed a blocked pipe and managed to suck out the blockage with good humour, no fuss and no mess. [We still don't know how a 10 inch twig got down there?!] Great company, highly recommended.

Plumbing angels were recommended to me by a business associate when I had a shower leak in my holiday let with the guests there at the time. They responded with good advice and were quick to attend the property and managed to also resolve another issue I had there. I’m really grateful for their service and would highly recommend them. Thanks Adam, I really appreciated your help!

Frindly pub with darts, fruties, pool table, and food. The garden is spectacular in the summer (and winter if you like the cold - plus there are heaters). If you are a sports fan, then there are always live games and matches here creating a great atmosphere. You can watch sport inside or in the garden TV area. I've always enjoyed going to this pub. And a guy Nick there always makes it a friendly and lively place.

Was staying in an Airbnb and had a little walk around then drove to The Dovecote Inn. From the outside, it looks super cosy and a bit of a hidden gem which it exactly was just that! Nice warm welcome, plenty of drinks to choose from and loved the feel and style inside. I came here for lunch and if I'm around the area I will most certainly be coming in or at least a recommendation to others who I know will appreciate this! Easy to park, lots of spaces at the back, can imagine in the summer it is a nice place to sit outside. Reckon evenings at the weekends would be nice also! Solid A***** LDT x

Lovely family run, cosy ‘proper’ pub. Good selection of bitters, lagers, wine and everything in between. Lindsay and Simon have done a fantastic job bringing the pub back from the dead and turning it into a roaring success. Photo is a sample of the menu in February.

Easily one of my favourite unfussy but oh so lovely pubs, pity it is so far from where I live. Still it was worth the 8km walk from Tonbridge. Simon and his wife seem to know all the locals and are warm and welcoming. Plenty of ales on tap, a few ciders too ALL straight from the barrels behind the bar (gravity fed). When it comes to the food, those smells from the kitchen are authentic and perhaps the most wondrous gravy in the world, I kid you not, if I could I'd order a bowl of the stuff with a chunk of bread.

Cosy countryside pub with great beer. Gravity fed real ale disguised behind wall decor disguised as barrels.

We met up with some local friends here for a Sunday Roast while we’re over from Australia. The team here are absolutely amazing! They really made us all feel welcomed. The food was to die for, I love that the trimmings are all served share style. But the meat and Yorkshire pudding was on your own plate. Very flavoursome, great serving size. I’ll be visiting again before I leave to go home! Highly recommended!

Get in quick before it gets a star. Service- relaxed but very professional Drink - well recommended Food - for £100 a head in London easily. Seriously superb food. The dishes take you on a journey the team design and deliver on. Went for a birthday, will now “have to go back” to regularly check quality.

Our favourite spot in Kent! The Poet is consistently excellent: wonderful service, superb quality dishes The menu changes periodically depending on local produce availability, but is always exquisite, a real treat every time we go. I love that they offer a dog friendly table in the bar (if you ring ahead to book, and your doggo is well behaved) Garden is also lovely for a drink before/after food inside 👌 Highly recommend.

Attended last night for birthday surprise and wasn't disappointed. The staff were very attentive throughout the evening. Head Chef Lee has created a menu which is a delight. The menu to make a decision which of the 5 starters & 6 mains to choice was extremely hard as I could and was tempted to have one of each. The food was as good as u can get the flavours were exquisite. The pairing of wine is a great idea. You will not be disappointed in booking here. Will be returning.

I came here for an anniversary meal and it didn't disappoint. Don't let the exterior pub-like look fool you. On the inside, it's a fine dining experience. Incredible food and service. The only reason it gets 3 stars for the atmosphere is because we went on a Monday which was very quiet. Will definitely be back for the tasting night which sounded excellent.

One of the finest little pubs I've ever visited, tucked away and truly remarkable! If you're local and this pub is on your doorstep, don't take it for granted.

Had an amazing evening at The Hopbine Pub in Matfield! The food was absolutely incredible—highlights for us were the Franconian Chorizo, Loaded Hash Browns with truffle mayo, the Hopbine Smash Burger, and the Vecna Sourdough Pizza fresh from the wood-fired oven. The staff were exceptionally friendly (special shout out to Finn & JB who in particular went above and beyond with their 5-star service), making the whole experience even better. The pub itself is stunning, a cosy classic British inn with roaring log fires and a great selection of local ales. Plus, you can stay at the Airbnb above the pub, which makes it a perfect spot for a weekend getaway. Highly recommend!
