The food is always so good here. Been a few times and cannot recommend high enough. The dark haired waitress is always friendly and polite. Good value for money for quality food. Recommended the garlic prawns (that’s a favourite!) But we have tried most items on the menu and not experienced a bad meal yet!

I went for an impromptu meal here with my boyfriend last night. Our server was very personable and chatty, and I was very happy to learn that they had vegan mozzarella available for the garlic bread! This was so tasty. The pasta was enjoyable too and my boyfriend loved his pepperoni pizza!

First time here , and was greeted by a man in a t-shirt and jogging bottoms , very pleasant but didn't set a great scene. Our waiter was pleasant and helpful. The food was lovely and good sized portions. I have to say though not a lot of choice for Vegans of which there was one in our party. There was no choices of desserts for Vegans at all. It was such a shame.

This was our first visit, and I can easily say, that was the best birthday meal I've had for years. The food was absolutely gorgeous, and the service and atmosphere were just perfect. We will absolutely be returning!

A few years ago, I gave this cafe a poor review. I am now retracting that initial review as I think they must have been having a one-off bad day. I have since returned dozens of times, on doggy walks and credit when it-s due. The cafe girls always have a warm smile and take great care of their regulars and 4 legged friends. Plenty of seats outside plus an all-weather shelter. Hot and cold drinks, snacks and hot baguettes or sausage rolls. Certainly enough to cater for most. You can also buy dog treats at 10p each!

Nice cafe and keeping going during tier4. Has toilets and seating areas. Nice drinks and pleasant atmosphere. Can get very busy like the park. Situated just inside from the car park. There is a play area for the kids. I've shown the parking charges as well.

In one word: Amazing! From the delicious delicacies cooked at the right timing offering a mixture of flavours, crispy, creamy, juicy and inviting fragrances to a great service, friendly delivered with passion and enthusiasm. A combination which creates a fantastic atmosphere for a night out with family and friends. Every single dish is cooked fresh, there are no frozen ingredients, which makes the tiny little venue to distinguish itself like an oasis in the desert.

Perfect place to grab an afternoon bite. Came in from NYC and tried the pizza, definitely held up to the standard. Would highly recommend, especially for the price.

We took our children last night for a birthday pizza treat! It was our 8 year olds birthday yesterday and he really wanted to go out for pizza! A thousand thank yous to the wonderful Lithuanian waiter/host who went above and beyond to make our son feel special. Our whole dining experience was perfect - a lovely restaurant, delicious food, exceptional service, great atmosphere. We will be back. Thank you

It was really great food, just right for a day out ahead. Nice atmosphere, and helpful staff. I would say it could do with some more art or decor reflecting the mother land Italy 🇮🇹 But, if that's my only issue, then it really isn't bad.

We celebrated my daughter's birthday here, and we loved the atmosphere. The waiter's service was spectacular, and we even got a free bottle of wine as a treat for booking a table. The food was exceptional and we'd love to say a big thank you to the chef's for the excellent meals.

First time I'd been in here for several years but had an appt at Boots opticians at midday so needed a drink and lunch after. This was more or less opposite and the ideal place. Lovely selection of sandwiches/toasties etc. Staff very pleasant and excellent service. Will be visiting again thanks.

The food was really tasty, good portion sizes too. I had an express breakfast. I've had to knock a star off for the bacon fat not being crispy and also because the breakfasts don't come with a tea/coffee and toast which is pretty much standard in any other Cafe I've been to. Also, they didn't have any dairy free milk options so wouldn't be a good place for a vegan to grab a cuppa!

I have ordered my brunch from Sizzling Cafe via Just Eat and it was one of the best baguette that I have had ( with sausage, bacon , fried egg ). It has arrived quick and still warm. I will definitely order from them again.

Well im very sorry but i do disagree with the comment above . If we are busy lunch times which we frequently are we (staff) try are very best to serve the food on time , make your hot drinks asap an keep an overall happy atmosphere like u would expect when u come to dine at sizzling cafe . If u see us rushing around its because we are trying our best to make sure every thing is as it should be an the customers are happy with every thing . Which i might add they normally are an happy with the meals that are served to them . If we haven't got the time to chat to u for long I do apologise but bare in mind we are working an trying are very best to please every one . An the lunch times can b very busy . But overall customers are satisfied an happy with there meals daily . An always come back again to eat at the cafe .

Amazing find and highly recommended. We were met with a genuine, friendly and warm welcome by the owner and team. Good selection of tasty food at a very reasonable price. We had breakfasts and thoroughly enjoyed them. Nice to be served tea in a big mug too. We will stop by again when we're in the area.

A decent traditional, British cafe. Fair prices, and a good range of meals available. Friendly staff. I had a regular breakfast. The sausage was especially good for a regular cafe.

After going to a wedding, and staying in an expensive hotel, we came across this cafe on our way home back towards ashford, to find it was so retro, it was stunning. Very reasonably priced and the staff were absolutely fabulous, we were greeted with a smile and a hello and the service was very prompt, meals were hot, the bread was fresh and we thoroughly enjoyed our meals. A great big thank you for taking us back to our childhood.

We visited this harvester on Saturday and booked the breakfast with Santa for our two young boys. The experience was amazing for both the children and us as parents. Santa did an amazing job he stayed in character for the whole duration of our stay at the restaurant. He’s appearance was very realistic to the traditional Santa Claus and he was Very good with communicating with our children and customising their experience. I would 100% recommend booking in this experience at the harvester and specifically the gravesend one as the Santa does such an amazing job. My children received a Christmas pack by Santa which kept them busy through the meal and received a little chocolate treat to take home afterwards. The Santa’s grotto corner was very well decorated and I thought this made the experience even better. The service overall was very good. The waitress was quick and good at communicating and directing us where to go for our visit with Santa. Many thanks Santa!

We visited with our autistic son and was made very welcome. Despite the fact he doesn’t normally cope in busy environments, care has been taken to position us. The staff were all attentive and helpful. Food was hot and tasty. The staff all sang our son happy birthday and most of the restaurant joined in. Lovely atmosphere and totally made by the staff. Well done all xx

The staff were extremely polite and friendly. The food took a while to get done and they didn’t offer bread or snacks before the meal was ready. They eventually gave us some complimentary mozzarella sticks and chicken nuggets which was a nice touch. The Lamb ribs didn’t taste seasoned, everything else tasted good.

Got the mixed Grill the 1st time I ordered as it was a new place for me. High end food is the only way to describe it. Had 3 Wagyu burgers this week, unreal. Best take away in Gravesend quality wise and I lived in London for 7 years eating a big selection, I know what good food is. Well done

Me and my husband had lovely dinner date.This place is stunning. Very intimate and cosy. Lovely staff there, very welcoming. The food was amazing and wonderful taste. Very rich in flavour and fresh. Looking forward to come back again with friends, as it has got a lovely bar, with qide range of drinks. Stunning chandeliers .Perfect for a photogenic person like me. Can't wait to hit the dance floor in the clubbing area downstairs. Overall, wonderful service. A perfect location to experience the Mediterranean taste.
