Absolutely amazing food! My husband is a vegan, we tried lots of different kinds of vegan food before, this one is definitely the best vegan food we have had. We also can feel all the love from the food 😊

A fantastic vegan restaurant in the heart of Folkestone. Incredible food, inventive and delicious menu, would wholeheartedly recommend to anyone including meat eaters who fancy trying something different.

In the heart of Folkestone, this vegan gem offers a delightful brunch experience. With a clever menu overlap between breakfast (10-3) and lunch (12-4), you're spoilt for choice. The pea pancakes were a surprising hit - even for our pea-skeptic child! Paired with yogurt and stewed fruits, it's a flavour combo that works. My nourishing bowl of kale, sauerkraut, tempeh, mushrooms, and rice was a wholesome delight. The relaxed atmosphere and good tunes create a perfect backdrop for people-watching as Folkestone's tourists stroll by. Ample seating options cater to all preferences. A solid spot for vegans and curious foodies alike. Definitely worth a visit when you're in town!

Wonderfully creative vegan food, that deserves a Michelin Star ⭐⭐⭐ There is something quite delightful about not having to ask "is this vegan?"! We're always delighted with flavour profiles, the inventive team come up with. We shared 4 small plates, and only just had enough room for pudding... Which you must not miss! Cosy and intimate, but not stuffy. If you've not been, do it!

We celebrated our Nans 90th birthday here today and the food and the service was first class . All the staff were so friendly and welcoming. There was no waiting for our starters or main meals or desserts they all come out together which was great service. All our food was very tasteful and my wife and myself will certainly return for a meal there .

Friendly family run restaurant. Great food quick service. Only 3 stars for atmosphere because near the end of our meal at a table of 7 ladies. They seated 15 people next to us on one long, put together tables. The noise they made with seating then talking meant we couldn't hear ourselves talking. Fortunately we were chucked off the tables we were on to seat another party.

We booked a table for the 3 course £19.95 lunchtime menu after reading many positive reviews and we are so glad that we did. We had Brie and tempura prawns to start followed by liver with bacon and moussaka, finishing with chocolate fondue and biscoff cheesecake. Everything that we had was cooked to perfection and beautifully presented. The wine was well chilled and reasonably priced. All the staff were efficient and friendly and the service was attentive but not intrusive, just as it should be. We are already looking forward to our next visit.

Wow! What a wonderful first experience we had! 2 adults, 3 teenagers and 1 small. Everyone enjoyed their meal. Meze was AMAZING and great value. Service was top class, friendly, knowledgeable, polite and attentive. We went for a special occasion and felt we were really treated as such. Thank you for making my 45th birthday memorable for all of us. Oh and the Cherry crush cocktail, LUSH. Only 1 photo as we were too busy having a great time.

We had a fantastic evening here on a Friday night. We were a party of 10. We received a very warm welcome from all of the staff. The food was fantastic: fresh, great quality and delicious. The margaritas were wonderful too. I highly recommend this restaurant.

Booked our work meal here for 14 people and we were not disappointed. Food was fantastic and a charming atmosphere that invites you in. Food wait was minimal and it all came out at the same time so no one was left watching others eat. 100% would recommend and for me personally is the greatest Mexican food establishment that Folkestone has ever had.

I have been a long time fan of Mexican food in Folkestone and there was always only one choice. Going to Morena has made me re-think this however. The staff were nice and friendly, very helpful with queries and always made sure we had drinks. Food came out very hot and very quick. Mexican food is the best when it is piping hot and this did not disappoint. The burrito was so full of good fillings it was hard to finish! Would recommend and will definitely be coming back for more.

What a meal! We ventured in and have to say that the service was fantastic, especially with our autistic son. Some people are perfect in the service industry and it's a pity more in the UK don't understand that it's all part of the experience! Anyway, the food was so tasty and rich with flavours, that it was a delight to savour each mouthful. We had whitebait, tacos and empanadas for starters, followed by Chicken & Pulled Pork Burritos and a Salteados. All was absolutely delicious and we left nothing on the plates. The presentation of the food was also pretty damn good and that just sets you up for the experience of savouring the taste of everything. Most definitely a place to return to, especially with friends.

Visited here after a recommendation from the owner of the hotel I was staying at. I had very high expectations but I was not prepared for how good it was. First and foremost the staff were very friendly and attentive, something that is sadly missing in a lot of restaurants these days. As soon as I sat down I was offered the drinks menu and that arrived very quickly. I ordered the Chicken Enchiladas and they were so good! The price was very reasonable too. Would strongly recommend Morena!

My husband and I visited Folkestone for a mini break and came to Mocka for breakfast. We'd seen good reviews and thought we'd give it a try. Spectacular! The breakfasts were beautifully presented and of high quality. We'd recommend this place highly. Wishing the owners a lot of success in your venture.

Nice looking restaurant. The savoury part of the waffle 🧇 is a bit bland, but I like the combo of savoury and sweet in one plate. The burger is good. One of the friends ordered the sandwich which seems to be the best. :)

We visited here after looking around town for somewhere to have dessert. We really lucked out. The place is newly decorated and is really cute. The passion fruit and mango chiller was delicious and our desserts not only looked good but were delicious! The service was perfect and we really loved the music which set a nice chilled vibe. Will definitely visit again when in the area.

Folkestone has evolved over the years and Steep Street occupies that spot as the “go to” place for coffee, cake and chilled vibes. Perfectly made proper coffee, the cakes are delicious (and I don’t even have a sweet tooth) and it’s created a family friendly, local vibe that’s always busy. Highly recommended.

A little piece of London in Folkestone! Cool and cute cafe with a lovely decor and atmosphere. I highly recommend the cappuccino (one with coconut milk is divine) and a slice of one of their lovely cakes. What’s also great is when you get a slice of cake it’s a proper slice - not a slither! The coffee is some of the best I’ve had in the area.

A relaxing coffee place with lots of books to choose from and great for conversations. I tried the biscoff hot chocolate and it was one of the best I have tried! Highly recommend for anyone who loves hot chocolate. We also tried the chocolate cake. It was a bit too sweet for me. The service was great and the staff were friendly. Absolutely love this place.

I wish I had this cafe near where I live. I would go there every morning, if not every week to get their amazing breakfast 🥹 We were visiting Folkestone and on the very last day in the morning before we left the town, we decided to have breakfast there. I’m simply glad I did - it’s on the iconic old street and the view from the cafe is what I find so cinematic - I felt as if I was in a scene from a film or something. The place is busy but in the morning it wasn’t too hard to find the seats. We ordered granola, porridge, croissant and toasted banana bread with a pot of tea. It was massive that I felt full - and every meal was nicely prepared and I felt healthy eating them. My favourite was the toasted banana bread - the best banana bread I’ve ever had. I can’t forget to mention that all of the staff were very welcoming and lovely. They made my morning great. Thank you so much for providing great service!

Highly Recommended Joe and Lewis installed new circuits for our kitchen recently, including various lighting solutions, plus a new consumer unit and an EV charger. They are highly professional, punctual, tidy, arrive when they say they are going to and nothing is too much trouble. I like the fact that Joe has a can-do attitude and rather than just taking the easy route he works with you to develop your own ideas, suggesting alternatives to consider and helps to save costs where possible. I will definitely be using Parker Electrical for any future requirements.

I have used Antonio on numerous occasions, most recently to rewire my house and add new outdoor electrical outlets for security cameras and lighting. It was a large job due to its complexity and the need to add consumer units to different parts of the property. Antonio's price was very competitive, but most importantly he was professional, polite and flexible. My frequent mind changes did not phase him at all, and he did not show any annoyance (I would not have been so accomodating). His workmanship and knowledge was top notch, likely from his teaching background. I have included a picture of how neat his wiring was for a consumer unit installation. If you are looking for a professional and dependable electrician, I could not reccommend Antonio highly enough.

Antonio came recommended by a colleague, its not hard to see why. He is always on time, nothing is too much and charges very reasonable rates. There are several jobs that need to be done throughout the house but the first job he did was to replace our switchboard. The work is to a very high standard, he leaves things clean and tidy when he is done. It's very hard these days to find a reliable craftsman and I am very pleased to have come across Antonio. Don't look further if you are looking for a very skilled and punctual electrician who is a top guy to boot!

He plans his work in detail and always offers best solution. He leaves the work place spotlessly clean. He offers competitive prices. We have used Antonio’s services 4 times now and we have recommended his services to our neighbours and friends. We cannot thank Antonio enough. Amazing guy! Excellent work ethics! Excellent standards of work! Highly recommend!

Antonio did a great job doing the electrics in my flat, he is easy to get on with and someone you can trust. He has brought the electrics up to date at a price I was more than happy with. I would highly recommend Antonio and if I need an electrician in the future I would definitely use him again.

The pictures simply don’t do it justice! Room No. 1 was both cosy and beautifully designed, with every detail thoughtfully curated. When we arrived, we were greeted with a lovely personal touch—a handwritten note with our names, local information, and a warm welcome message. The heating was already on, making the room feel wonderfully comfortable, and we appreciated that we could control it to suit our needs. We could even open the windows slightly to let in a refreshing breeze, which was especially welcome being so close to the harbour. The room was impeccably clean, with luxurious linens and charming decor that made it feel like a true retreat. A delightful surprise was the binoculars thoughtfully provided in the room, perfect for enjoying the stunning views and soaking in the beauty of the harbour. The bathroom was a standout feature—a gorgeous deep bath perfect for unwinding, and the shower felt like stepping into a refreshing summer rain. Every moment in this space felt indulgent and relaxing. We were so taken with the hotel that we didn’t want to leave. We even cancelled our dinner reservation elsewhere so we could enjoy a meal at the Harbour Inn, the pub next door. The food was delicious, the atmosphere warm and welcoming, and the proximity to the hotel made it the perfect choice. The staff were exceptional—attentive and genuinely friendly. The hotel manager greeted us personally, and his passion for the hotel and the pub was so evident that we thought he must be the owner. Overall, it was an unforgettable experience, with so many thoughtful touches that made it feel extra special. We can’t wait to return!

Beautiful decor, excellent seafront location and attentive staff. Recently renovated the hotel offers attention to detail accommodation, with personality and character. Our room overlooked the boats in the inner harbour which we loved watching from the window seat. Our vegetarian breakfast was lovely and very filling. Again added to by enjoying watching the boats in the harbour. Highly recommend for an escape by the sea!

I have used Relay at 5 different properties - varying roles, from running electrics round the garden for lighting and hot tubs, full re wires and then changing lights and moving sockets and switches. They always turn up when they say they are normally with a Text message reminder sent the day before arrival ,nothing is any hassle ( even if the plans / design change our end ) and all always polite and professional. I never hesitate to pass on their details to friends and family and everyone has the same view! I have dealt with alot of electricians in my time and these guys can do the lot. Also good in ‘urgent’ cases for my tenanted properties - they can always juggle something to get someone back on supply or to fix a fault So I will always recommend Relay to anyone
