Found this place by chance while following a diversion from the M20 to the M2; after 8 hours of driving up from Devon We were ready for dinner but were not holding our breath . . . A pretty non-descript exterior; not much atmosphere inside, but boy, simply the best Indian we had eaten in the 3 years since moving from Bexley. An absolutely 1st class chicken curry, bombay aloo, veg rice and nan; popadoms to start plus a large cobra and 2 glasses of wine; all for £43. Not somewhere I would go for an occasion, but if we lived locally, would absolutely use once a week simply for the quality of the food. Highly recommended.

The food was absolutely delicious, and the service was fantastic! The portions were generous, and the authentic flavors really hit the spot. The staff were incredibly attentive and provided speedy service. Thanks a bunch for taking care of us last night. We'll definitely be returning!

This is my new go-to Indian takeaway, it's easily in my top 3 of all time (I've eaten a lot of curries from different places over the years). It's the only top quality Indian restaurant on Uber Eats - I've tried many places on the delivery services, nowhere else comes close. I've always collected in person from other places before finding Volsharn on Uber eats, but these guys do make a proper nice curry. The food always arrives piping hot, the delivery drivers are friendly & the food arrives on time. Food quality itself is spot on, it's exactly what you'd expect if you were to go for a sit down meal at an Indian restaurant - they make really tasty perfectly spiced curries, soft naan & good portion sizes. 10/10

Some renovations going on with the interior, but what a curry. Lamb dish with a citrus fruit added. Never had a dish like it. Finished every last morsal. First time eating in. Really enjoyed the meal. Many thanks. Will definitely be back.

Thanks. We stopped for a quick bite before a long journey. Very tasty, fast, despite the fact that many tables were occupied by large groups of guests. Very pleasant service. Nice garden and there is a children's playground.

This is my old local pub, and we recently held our wedding reception here. The service and food were superb. The staff incredibly helpful and made the day even more special. Really good value for money and our guests were really complimentary about the food, service and pub generally. Thank you once again to everyone.

Slow service had to wait 20 minutes to order drinks, and food looked good but not as good as last time. Roast potatoes had a very hard exterior, so once in, I only ate the middle. I would say the veg was just blanched, so Al dente. Yorkshire Pudding looked good but was rubbery. The best was the roast beef and roast Lamb. The water for the table came in a nice bottle but inside the neck was dirty as if not cleaned. Biggest bug bear was non blue badge parked in the disabled parking space

A nice little pub with nice indoor and outdoor seating and an outside garden area. The kids play area was nice but could be improved, very small and they have the space for it too. Great atmosphere and lovely staff. However the food was hit and miss. The chips looked very greasy and not at all appetising, a shame as they seem like a staple with most dishes. The mushroom carbonara and calamari were great. The staff member serving us was lovely. Prices similar to most pubs..

They were very nice and they helped so much(idk if their name is spelt right). I very much recommend the ribieye steak and the fish and chips overall amazing place ☆☆☆☆☆

The staff here were phenomenal. The service was impeccable. The food was exquisite. We were only going to buy a cake but we were welcomed so warmly with our little girl that we decided to stop and eat and we are so glad we did. It was so clean and every member of staff greeted us when they passed us. Our food was cooked exactly how we asked for it. The choice of sandwiches and cakes on offer was really impressive. We will definitely be back!

Visited today late afternoon and will certainly return. The Samosa tasted particularly delicious but also enjoyed a pasty & Panini which were great plus drinks. Grabbed a Belgium bun & a slice of chocolate to go as we left and they too were great. Attentive service including recommendations as there were so many cakes we struggled to choose.

I stopped here with family to enjoy the Rochester high street, and it was a really great experience. The staff were so kind and friendly, and made us feel catered to and welcome. The food is really good value for money as well and the upstairs section has good views and a nice atmosphere. Lenny’s is a good cafe for families and those with kids as well. I would definitely recommend this cafe for those in need of an affordable, quick lunch or coffee break without the huge wait times of other cafes up the high street.

Went for afternoon tea and had a lovely selection of food. You get to choose your sandwich fillings you would like from their huge range they do and comes with sausage rolls, lots of cakes and scones with jam and cream. We couldn’t eat it all so they supplied boxes for us to take it home in.

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!

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!

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.

Little pricey but where isn't. Had great fun and was lucky to pay standard price but got a VIP booth. Got drinks before we started to bowl, this is bcz on previous trips the drinks take forever to come to u. Great choice of games in the arcade and plenty of choice for the kids 👍 Weekend u need to get tickets online first as it's nearly full before lunch time, also think they're cheaper online

Excellent alleys. Very busy as it was school summer holidays. Reception staff very helpful and polite. Offered assistance in setting up score board screen but we declined as the kids like to do it. Plenty of balls so lots of choice. Once playing a delightful young girl appeared and asked if we needed any refreshments? We ordered and paid by card and drinks arrived within 5 minutes Once we had finished bowling we went to the arcade area. Noisy and fun 🤩 The Hippo machine was playing up and one of the hungry beasts refused to work. I spoke to reception and he came immediately and opened the machine. Said that they had had a few problems, apologised and refunded the £1.00. I did change a £10.00 note in the change machine but only got £9.80 back??? Seemed petty to complain. Only downside was the heat. It was a hot day and the air conditioning could just be felt. We were all hot and sticky by the time we left (2 hours). Would recommend and will definitely be returning. It’s not the closest alley to my home but with the free parking and great staff it is the best choice by far. 5*

Super large venue with arcade gaming and 2p slot machines. (Similar to a traditional seaside arcades) Pool table. Spacious, clean and plenty of bowling balls. Modern tech to control the barriers etc. Call button bar service to bowling lane. You can wear your own shoes! (Trainers or closed toe flats) Friendly staff. Haven’t tried the food yet. Only con is due to the vast size it’s a loud venue. Great if you love a bustling vibe but noise cancelling headphones are a must for anyone sensitive to audio overwhelm.

Absolutely brilliant, I had the big one burger. It was beautiful. All the burgers were well seasoned and super tasty. All food came out hot and tasting exactly as I imagined. Brilliant service. Would definitely recommend if you want a family friendly restaurant with good food. I didn't get any pics, as soon as it came out it looked so good, I just tucked straight in.

I went to The Quills for the first time with my colleagues for a Christmas lunch. It’s a nice, clean restaurant. The staff were friendly, and the service was very professional. I had steak with potato fries and vegetables. There could have been fewer fries and more vegetables, but overall, we had a lovely time. 🙋🏼‍♀️🍀🎄

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.

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!

Had a lovely stay here for 1 night as a family of 3 visiting Rochester. Helpful and friendly ladies on reception. I requested a room ahead of arrival on the ground floor near reception due to mobility issues and they had no record of it but quickly found us a ground floor room, although it was right down the end of the corridor. Nice and quiet though! Apparently best to phone with requests not email. Great shower and comfy beds and we liked that you could help yourself to extra milk, tea etc.in reception. Location was great right near bowling, McDonald's where we got breakfast from and other restaurants and cinema. Lovely being right by the river too, there's a path alongside it a minute's walk from the hotel. Great value for money. Air con worked fine in our room, plenty of parking.

Stayed one night, reception staff was very attentive and given the ground floor room which was really nice, booked us for the restaurant. We ate at the restaurant and we were served by a lovely lady Sara who took her time to explain the meal deal and also was a super star in finding a specific book that my son had seen. Amazing service all round, the room was clean and ready and decaf option was available.

The check in was quick and easy. The food was very nice, and they actually cooked my steak properly. Big respect to Ashley who not only put up with me and my colleague being idiots, but also kept a smile on her face and stayed very professional. Same for the other waiting staff. They were great. Prompt. And professional. A good night out. Decent location. Gala bingo next door if anybody wants to steal someone's granny for the night.

A fantastic spot for both food and drinks, with unique rooms that are worth exploring. If it’s your first visit, I highly recommend checking out the Vault Room and the Infinity Bar, and don’t miss the lovely garden. I had the full English breakfast, which was delicious, though the beans tasted a bit off, so I left them. The staff were attentive and even gave me a discount for the beans. Overall, first-class service, and I would definitely return!

I had a group booking of about 25 for Sunday lunch, it was my choir, and we were singing in the cathedral. The atmosphere in the Vaults is wonderful, you feel you are in a mediaeval Monastery refectory. The food was lovely, not an absolutely champion Sunday roast, but tasty, well served, with particularly beautifully done slightly pink beef. The team were very accommodating and helpful both when planning at all and serving it. We had a lovely time and I recommend it warmly.

I recently visited Frankie & Benny's and had a wonderful experience. The food was delicious, with generous portions and a good variety to choose from. Everything we ordered was fresh and flavorful, making it a satisfying meal. What stood out the most was the exceptional service we received from Robert. He was incredibly nice, friendly, and attentive throughout our visit, ensuring that we had everything we needed and making us feel genuinely welcome. His positive attitude added to the overall dining experience. I would definitely recommend Frankie & Benny's for a relaxed and enjoyable meal, thanks to both the tasty food and the outstanding service!

My partner and I visited with our toddler. The toddler has both Dairy and Soya intolerances and I am a very difficult eater. Jamie and the chef bent over backwards to give us a Tailor made meal each. Both of which were fantastic! I can not thank them enough.

The restaurant that’s recommended by local people. The portion is very big (for an Asian lady), I ordered half rack of BBQ Ribs with jacked potatoes and the ribs is very tender and tasty. My mum ordered a Chicken Parm pasta and it’s nothing miracle but satisfying. The price is not cheap but reasonable, 4 dishes below (for 4 people) costed us £92.5 in total. The food took ~10mins to arrive and the service/staff is fantastic. All in all it’s a comfort food that won’t disappoint.
