Best cafe for me!! Love the breakfast but also love the lunch, staff are so friendly and they can't do enough for you!! Also tried ordering at home and was so good !! 😁 local to me and come here often. Only one thing I could say is they could do with a deep clean especially round the floors.

Located at Kestrel Rd shopping parade. The cafe is friendly and has a nice vibe. It is quite spacious and when I visited there were several occupied tables. The menu is quite extensive and consists of typical cafe fare. Cooked breakfasts,burgers , sandwiches,panini's etc. There are some vegetarian options too. I had a cappuccino which was very nice and to eat a fried egg sandwich. The bread was fresh and the eggs cooked nicely. The prices were fair and an average of what I have seen in the area. 30/09/24: Good breakfast today, for £8.30 you get a huge plate of food. I'm set for the day now.

Perfect way to start my morning with the chef bazza making a superb breakfast for me. Never thought something so spectacular could be done it’s like his a magician. Perfect customer service always greater with the up most respect going. Would recommend to anyone

Absolutely perfect. My partner and I like doing date nights here as its a place you can dress up nicely and fit in. Not many places you can dress up now and not feel over dressed you do get all sorts of people eat here from the families, group of middle aged friends to the workers. The atmosphere is delightful clean and colourful with music playing in the background. The staff are quick to serve and will take any requests. The staff look wonderful in there neat uniforms and really do treat the customers well on every occasion I have been. The food is freshly cooked and perfectly cooked. No cold food or raw food here and the food is always cooked the same which is brilliant if you find a favourite meal as you know it will always be the same.My partner normally has chicken tikka but sadly they cook it a way he doesn't like as the sauce used reminds him too much of tomato soup but that's preference. We have actually ordered from just eat too and believe it or not the food is the exact same quality as if you were actually dining in. Will admit when we order poppadoms we get dips at the restaurant but a couple of times we didn't when we ordered delivery but other times we did so not sure if it's an extra or meant to come for free. We spend between 60 to 70 which is really worth it for an intermate dinner for 2 which has starters 2 mains with sides naan and couple of alcoholic drinks. The atmosphere is so relaxed that unless you are unfortunate to have rowdy diners to which we never have you can thoroughly enjoy the place with great food, good staff, wonderful music and top notch company truly amazing for date nights.

My preferred take away. Really good and big portions. Food always arrives very hot and of course delicious. We order mixture of curries with both chicken and lamb. Inever nad a bad piece of chicken and the portion is enough for me for two days. Lamb very tender, easy to cut with spoon, just melt in your mouth. Until next take away night, thank you! Too delicious to wait and take a photo. Maybe next time 😉

"I’ve been coming to Ghurka Brothers for years, and they never disappoint! This time I enjoyed their Gurkhali Lamb Chops—absolutely packed with flavor—and the House Special Assorted Kebabs, which were tender and perfectly spiced. If you're a lamb lover, I highly recommend trying the lamb chops! 🐑🔥 Ghurkha brothers wasn’t too busy when we visited, so there was plenty of seating, which made it a great spot to catch up with old friends in a relaxed atmosphere. 🍽️ The service was attentive and friendly, ensuring we had everything we needed. Whether dining in or using their takeaway service, I've always had a great experience here. For anyone looking for a flavorful meal with good service, Ghurka Brothers is a must-visit. I'll definitely be back again! 🍴"

Excellent service by the crew, food quality was good.

I was blown away by the quantity and quality of the food here. We ordered a couple of make your own pizzas and they were delicious great bases and nice fresh toppings. Cook time was very fast and efficient. I will definitely be ordering from here in the future instead of the Papa John's or Dominos as this place blows them out of the water if you want a tasty authentic pizza delivered

Oh my god! I can’t tell how good these pizzas are. I’ve ordered a pepperoni pizza and a Coke Zero. The staff here are friendly and polite! I’ve loved the atmosphere here! The pizza was fresh and hot! You can add double cheese to your pizza (which I’ve did). The pizza had a nice cheese pull which I’ve enjoyed! Basically the BEST pizzas around Medway!

My one-stop destination for mouth-watering, hot out of the oven, delicious pizzas. We ordered half a pepperoni and half a chicken veggie pizza which just melted in our mouths. We also had some nice chicken strips with garlic sauce. Lovely staff. I would absolutely recommend it!!

We were gifted some vouchers for a treat. What a discovery - set in an old, refurbished industrial building with a contempt atmosphere. The food is delicious and beautifully presented. Nice drinks menu with local spirits and wines, and some interesting cocktails including non-alcoholic options.

The pumproom is the perfect place for an occasion. It’s on the pricier side, but it’s honestly worth every penny! We went for our wedding anniversary and had put it on the booking form. They welcomed us with a card on the table, we had a free cocktail and some fudge at the end of the meal too. The staff were lovely and so knowledgeable about everything on the menu. We had every course going and the flavours in every part were beautiful. Lots of combinations you wouldn’t necessarily find elsewhere, the bone marrow fondue was our absolute highlight. The cocktails menu is extensive and there’s loads with alcohols from the distillery to choose from. It’s also lovely to have the view out onto the river with Upnor castle in the distance. Such a gem to find in Chatham, we loved it!

I first discovered the Copper Rivet strawberry gin, which I liked so much I researched and found out about the distillery and restaurant along the river in Chatham.. and I had to experience dining at the place that made such a good quality gin. We were not disappointed.. quality cocktails, service and food.. you do pay a bit more but for a special occasion it’s just perfect.. first we had drinks outside with lovely views along the river, and blankets provided in case it gets chilly (we actually had a bit of sun!!).. and then inside the amazing building for dinner.. the food blew us away and my husband told the waitress he wanted to marry the chef 😂 which I totally understood… will definitely go back and look forward to it! And the triple cooked chips which we will have with whatever we order..

What a Gem! Can’t believe I’ve never been here before. They really know how to professionally run a cafe. The service was great, the food was delicious and well priced. We had warm scones, clotted cream and jam with coffees. The oat latte was made perfectly and we can’t wait to come back. They gave us promotional discounts for their Sunday roast and breakfast options. Will return, thank you!

You would never think you was on Chatham High Street, I felt like I was in a lounge on the Costa del Sol. The food was amazing, fresh, full of flavour and presentation was awesome. Staff are very attentive and very welcoming, we only came for a light bite and we are coming back again for the Sunday roast!!

This was my first time visiting Cafe Nucleus, and will definitely be the first of many visits! Quick and friendly service, excellent food, and a lovely atmosphere to dine in. What a treasure hidden just off Chatham high street. It’s a dog-friendly place too so if you have dogs, definitely head here. They even have a dog menu (I don’t have a dog myself so can’t provide much insight on that). Kind of pricey, but worth it

Spur of the moment booking for a date night with the Mrs. We were thoroughly impressed with the food, slightly overwhelmed by the size of the portions but food was unbelievable. Two of us had 5 starters, 3 second courses, 4 mains and 2 sides. Plus a bottle of wine and several vodka based drinks, whole meal came to less than £100 including the tip I added (no service charge here but you pay before you eat) Can't recommend highly enough, a real diamond in the rough that is Chatham.

Good coffee with a choice of dairy and plant based milks and tons of different syrups for an extra treat. Rolls sandwiches toasties available and jacket potatoes on selected days. They also offer an outside catering service. Eat in or takeaway is available. Always spotlessly clean

Charlie and his team have just completed a partial rewire in our home replacing all of the sockets which had previously tripped out leaving us with almost no power. Kelliher Electrical completed the work efficiently leaving us with peace of mind that our sockets are now safe. Kelliher Electrical were a pleasure to have, very approachable and happy to answer questions. Very good customer care and would not hesitate to recommend to others especially those who are looking for electricians they can trust.
