Good coffee. Prompt and efficient service. Overall a good place to stop. I like the outside seating. Even on chilly days it's pleasant to sit outside with your coffee and watch the world go by. It makes a pleasant break from the chores one undertakes when in town.

Best coffee in town by far, whichever way you like your coffee just tell them and they’ll work with you to get your very best coffee experience. But the best bit is the staff and the owner (Dave) I think it’s Dave? 🤷🏻‍♀️🙈 he’s a really good employer and has proved throughout this pandemic that he cares about all of his staff. Great guy too, always chatty and engaging with customers. Callum is just amazing, please don’t ever leave! We chat about all sorts, his beautiful daughter and girlfriend 🥰 But this guy knows his coffee, he knows what to do if yours isn’t just right and takes the time to understand what you like. Even adjusts temperature if you’re going to drink 2 sometimes in less than an hour 🙈😂 All other staff are friendly and professional 🤩 The people who visit are great, I love the regulars 💛 the vibe is always friendly, funny, warm and welcoming, even on grey rainy days. Thank you all for brightening up my work days ☀️❤️

Came here with my mother for some tea but i then opted for the coffee latte with hazelnut flavour and the tea was great but the coffee was amazing. It was brewed to be soft and gentle while tasting so smooth yet rich at the same time. Keep up the good work Mr.Chan!!

That’s the best coffee shop in Gravesend! Coffee is a top class quality, always fresh and delicious cakes and sandwiches with an amazing service. Also everything in very good prices, calm and quiet environment, very good place to study, work or just chill with friends 🤩♥️

The best place to visit with friends and family - we celebrated a birthday! And it was the best decision ever! Amazing food and drinks and the staff was lovely and very helpful. For sure we will come back soon!

I went for lunch time, the staff was nice and atmosphere as well. We seated outside, it was nice. We had vegetarian pizza and buffala. The place is expensive because in the vegetarian pizza we had to add the mozzarella (2 pound) and we took tiramisù which the portion was too little but price too high. But on the all it was good. The quality of food was excellent.

Risotto del Boscu mmmmm wowsers! And the carpaccios were just excellent. Steak also great. What a Lovely place, full of welcoming staff who really care and so proud about great food and great service. We enjoyed everything. Had fun and am of the opinion It’s the only place i’d go again to in Gravesend after that meal. The chef and owners are from Sicily and have won several awards…. A little gem in the East! Nice interiores too and central in town.

My family and I stopped by Mad Italy for a quick bite and were pleasantly surprised by the experience. From the moment we entered, we were greeted with a warm and friendly atmosphere. The restaurant was impeccably clean, which immediately set a positive tone. The staff were not only friendly but also highly professional. Their attire was top-notch, adding an extra touch of class to the overall dining experience. The food was excellent, with each dish bursting with flavour. The desserts were equally impressive, leaving us thoroughly satisfied. Overall, we had a wonderful experience at Mad Italy and would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a delightful meal. We will certainly be returning.

Courteous staff, eager to welcome and ensure the kids had a great time by constantly checking to see if there were needs to be met. I only feel we were not really at liberty to choose our own seats. We were ushered to seats that ordinarily I wouldn't pick as we sat too close to some folks I considered slightly loud, not too muchbof a big deal. But, again, the meals and staff would score 💯 or very close. Weldone.

Only 1 of 2 good places to go out in Gravesend and now they're making some incredible Birria Tacos as well as some fantastic cocktails. Would thoroughly recommend The Kent for a lovely evening of drinks, food, and good company with the best bar staff in the county.

Trying the new menu at the Kent cocktail bar and my I say I was taken away. The food is prepared and cooked to perfection. It came out promptly and this is now and will have to say my preferred choice of food. Compliments to the chef. Well done and can’t wait to return.

Great place for a few drinks. Interesting downstairs basement with pool table. Unfortunately music too loud. Would be 5 stars if you didn't have to yell over the music just to be heard. Background music should be that, background music. I imagine the basement would be fantastic with some background jazz, but maybe that's not their style. Will come again and hope the music isn't as loud.

Love it in here, food is brilliant and staff are great but it's just SO cold in winter because the door won't close properly. Seem to remember it was the same last year (and probably the one before that too!) so really should do something about it.

We were delighted to find JK’s Cafe on our last visit to England in September, 2022. We really enjoyed our meals, and the service was friendly and prompt. Great place! A year later we are back in Gravesend and wanted a hearty lunch. We raced over to JK’s Cafe before they closed and the three of us enjoyed a wonderful lunch. Two of us had a Full English and one had Bangers and Mash. The food was served piping hot and was delicious. Perfect!

The food arrived incredibly quickly and piping hot. The coffee was excellent. The staff were warm, friendly, and exceptionally professional in their service. Everything was spotlessly clean, and the shop had a delightful floral fragrance. I was truly impressed. The owner himself came over to ask if we enjoyed the food, and he was absolutely remarkable. Thank you so much for everything. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

My mate at the gym recommended this cafe to me. He uses it when he goes to the driving range. Was not disappointed, we had to wait for a table to become free, 40 plus people in cafe. I had the number 2 with chips, which arrived freshly cooked and hot. Coffee was also decent. Think i will re-visiting this great cafe very soon. If your passing definitely worth a try you won't be disappointed.

Food is always top quality. They don't serve specific gluten-free meals, but I bring gluten-free bread, which they toast for me. There are plenty of other choices to choose from. The staff are friendly and helpful. Always have a lovely time when we meet up.

I am lost for words, my experience was absolutely amazing. Genuinely the best meal I have had in a long while time. Lovely lady who serviced, very kind and sweet. The food was exceptional and tasted delicious, so compliments to the chef. The restaurant atmosphere and area was just lovely the detail in design was exquisite. I can’t recommend enough. Thank you so much.

A truly amazing little restaurant. Family run and obviously done with so much love. The owners daughter was our waitress and the level of service was fabulous, what a lovely lady! The food is beautiful, cooked with care by a clearly talented chef. We had a wonderful night!

One of the tastiest Italian meals we have ever had. We came in on an unplanned visit to eat dinner ahead of attending a show at the theatre and were so pleasantly surprised with the delicious meals we all had. Would highly recommend to anyone and would love to come back again. I only gave 3 for atmosphere as there was only 1 other table in…thank you for a fab meal!

First time for us at this restaurant, definitely will not be the last! By far the best Italian eatery we have ever eaten in. The pasta was perfect. Light and fresh and full of flavour. The pizza had the perfect dough.. so might, yet crispy. No crusts left on our plates. There is an excellent selection of starters and mains and the chef is clearly not scared to use different flavours. Lots of interesting things. Arannci with hot honey drizzle… absolutely wonderful. The house red wine is lovely, very drinkable! The staff are all a pleasure and delight. We just loved this place. So much so we have booked it for New Years Eve!!
