By far the best full English in town. I advise you to skip dinner prior to the morning you plan to eat breakfast. Their full English is fuller than many others'. This is a warm, cosy place with welcoming staff and tasty food.

Jon and his team of electricians are so reliable and efficient - he provided a detailed itemised quote, arranged for our job to be done in a timely manner and then helped us out arranging some emergency electric work when we needed it just before Christmas. Would highly recommend to anyone!

Amazing food a real beautiful building a true English country pub and the menu was great something for all to enjoy very reasonable, and a wonderful selection of desserts and drinks. Our family had a wonderful time and I honestly take my hat off to the staff and the landlord was a real host and we were comfortable and enjoyed the experience of his pub, I take my hat off to the landlord.

Perfect accommodation for a wedding at cooling castle barn. Room was clean, bed very comfy and staff friendly and helpful. Even had an option of memory foam pillows which makes a big difference (never had anywhere offer this before), an full sized bath towels. Breakfast was included and to see the whole cooked breakfast was gluten free was excellent -very tasty and many GF options at breakfast. Would recommend staying here. We unfortunately don’t live local otherwise I think we’d be regulars for the food.

Had a long drive and arrived at 16:30, checked in and ordered food Sunday roast) as the kitchen was due to close at 5pm. Went to the room to drop the bags and came back for the food, it was gorgeous! The room was superb with all that you need for a night or two. The mattress was very comfortable, pillows were hard but there were alternatives underneath the bed. Breakfast was lovely (full English). Check out was at 10:30. Lovely stay and if we're back in that area we will happily return!

We stayed here for a wedding at cooling castle. The team were really lovely and helpful. The lift to and from the venue was an amazing touch. Gav made sure we got back safely and even popped the kettle on. Food was really great! The room was clean and spacious.

Friendly staff and dog friendly in the bar. Went on a Friday evening and it was super busy in both the bar and restaurant so food took a while to come out. It was a little noisy for us but it was great to see a local pub doing well
Rating: 5 / 5
We only stopped for a little refreshment. It's a nice pub, very traditional and comfortable. Nice staff. We did not eat but it looked like good solid pub grub.
Rating: 5 / 5
We stayed just one night for a wedding at Cooling Castle Barn. Brilliant, convenient transfer by Gav to and from the venue which was, a much appreciated, inclusion in the room rate. Very friendly pub with a fabulous chef who doesn’t stop smiling even when she’s run off her feet. All staff were lovely and obviously dedicated. Nice, clean, spacious room with lots of added extras, again, much appreciated. Evening meal and cooked breakfast were excellent! Would definitely stay again.

Great coffee. Good selection of cakes. We love the collection of coffee pots on the wall.
Rating: 5 / 5
We’ve been coming here for months & it is a firm favourite in our household, the coffee is always delicious and the staff are friendly. It’s usually busy, but if you can score a table outside it’s great for people watching & dog spotting in the sunshine! Would recommend a visit for sure.
Rating: 5 / 5
Have visited here on a couple of occasions and there’s a cosy yet vibing atmosphere. The Caramel lattes are so lovely and go down well with a cheeky Chocolate muffin. The service is really great from all staff. Being a wheelchair user wasn’t a problem for us unless it gets really busy which it does at usual peak times. Well worth a visit and the staff sure make you feel welcome.

The coffee, service, cakes and atmosphere are great at this independent coffee shop. The ready-made snacks are variable, but don't let that put you off, it's a coffee shop! Also, there's no WiFi, and mobile signal is weak inside, so if you want to have a conversation, this is the place!

Tiny Tim's Of Rochester
5 Northgate, The Precinct, Rochester ME1 1LS, UK | Tea House P: 01634 939031
Rating: 4.2 (208) Price Level:
Went here for afternoon tea. Prices around $25/person You get a choice of 6 sandwiches divided into smaller bite sizes for your group and an assortment of desserts and a drink of choice. The service and the atmosphere were great. The desserts were amazing. The sandwiches were not good at all in my opinion. I might just be a picky person but there was so much sauce and they all tasted the same and not different enough. Too much mayo for sure and it just wasn’t my cup of tea at all. I don’t think many Americans would like it. And even my British friend said it had too much sauce. I left and for myself another sandwich at a shop nearby haha but again might just be my personal taste buds.
Rating: 5 / 5
I visited with my family and the first thing we noticed was the lovely ambiance of the restaurant, great choice of music playing. The staff were so attentive and excellent with the children. I started with one of the best Americano coffees I’ve had, followed by the incredible Big Tel’s breakfast - you have to try it! Excellent choice on the kids menu and we finished off our meal with the delicious fresh cakes. Well done to the team at Tiny Tim’s - 5 stars!
Rating: 5 / 5
Went in to Tiny Tim’s for cream tea (7.5£). There was plenty of seating available- and the staff were full of hospitality and kindness. The tea room has a old school feel- with nicely done interiors. The tea room carried its history with it- and is right next to the Car Park. There is some outdoor seating as well (depending on the weather). The scones were delicious and warm- and the cream and strawberry jam added to its charm. The pot tea was one of the best I have had in a while- was flavourful and delish. The only thing- the crockery looked worn-out and could be replaced (maybe it’s because of the old world charm that they were still used). Would visit again. Thanks.

What a lovely little find! We had 2 afternoon teas which were fab! Lovely cakes, sandwiches were really nice, hot chocolate was also fab! Highly recommend! Also lovely staff that were very accommodating with our little ones and our daughter had her first jam sandwich which she loved so thank you!

Had a lovely meal in the restaurant with family 5 for a special occasion. The foods were brilliant display and taste delicious, specially in steak and lobster, the prices were good with the quality foods we got. Definitely be back again. Thanks for your attentive customers service. We had a great time!

As always, top drawer... Doesn't matter whether I'm popping in on my own for a quick main course after football on a Saturday, or whether I'm in company - the warmth of the welcome from Ruta and her team is only matched by the quality of the food. - the two course lunch menu is extremely good value.
Rating: 5 / 5
Went here for a date night and had a great time. The food was amazing and the drinks were more than affordable. The staff gave great service, we’ll definitely be coming back. The Confit Pork Belly and the Lobster Thermador were the stars of the show. The Thai Prawns were cooked perfectly.
Rating: 4 / 5
Went to Brettington’s to celebrate a special occasion. Food was good but not spectacular. The steak was “medium well” instead of “medium rare”. Noticed it and called the attention of the wait staff. They quickly sent it back and got the order replaced. This time it came out exactly how I wanted it. My only let down was the mashed potato which came out quite stuff. Not creamy like you’d expect in a fine establishment. I must add that the king prawn starter is a must have. Very delicious. The staff were also very nice and lovely.

Placed an order through uber eats for delivery, had issues with the delivery. Not the owners fault at all, solely down to the uber delivery driver. Contacted the cafe and they couldn't have been more helpful, contacting uber and requesting for it to be sorted. Ending up sorting the food between us (myself and the store) Excellent customer service, amazing food. Definitely going to be ordering again, maybe through a different delivery company this time!
Rating: 5 / 5
Good food, well cooked - I had poached eggs on toast and the chef came over and apologised because they were slightly overcooked - so he did me 3 more! I was full all day! The breakfasts looked tasty, and the prices very reasonable. Excellent lattes too!

Took the Grandkids 5 and 3 to see Father Christmas and they loved it. There were things for them to do like making food for reindeer and riding on the Santa Express as well as seeing the animals. This was good as like many children the 3 year old wasn't very keen on Father Christmas!!

I have difficulty walking any distance so this is the ideal size for me. Took a friend who's never been before and she's going back with her grandchildren. Lovely local place to while away a few hours. Food was great and they even catered for gluten free people.
Rating: 5 / 5
Excellent value food and polite staff. The deserts in particular were amazing good and great value. We were a large group of 16 yet food came out very quickly and was nicely cooked. The zoo animals were well cared for and kept everyone interested for about 1hr.
