Lovely Italian restaurant in the heart of Rochester. Easy to walk from any parking place. The service was nice and friendly. They have a big variety of dishes and desserts, I loved the specialties of the Chef. I love the meloncelo was delicious. There is a good selection of wines The decorations are very Italian and cosy. Portions sizes are big. You might need to reserve at night time. They have outdoor seating. Is possible to pay with card or cash.

Rating: 4.7 (325) Price Level:
Have walked past loads of times thinking "should go there some time" now after going I think what was I thinking not going sooner! Fantastic food, fairly priced. The Seabas ceviche I had is genuinely one of the nicest things I've eaten in a very long time. My Hake from the specials was great as was my wife's scallops starter and hake with muscles and clams. Fish cooked to perfection 👌 We never had deserts as was too stuffed but what we saw come out for others looked equally as good. Can't wait to go back. Keep up the great work.

Wow, what an amazing place. Seafood platter was outstanding, quality and freshness of food was great. Staff are so friendly and helpful, we will definitely be back... 1 thing I would say would be go when you are hungry because the portion sizes are definitely not small!

This is one of our favourite restaurant, the one that me and my husband always go to, sometimes twice or 3x in a month 😂 we know each other now. You can guarantee best quality of food! Oh and don’t let the name fool you as they also do amazing steak and chicken x

Dinner with friends at this restaurant last Saturday. Lovely restaurant on 3 floors with spiral staircase unfortunately food didn't live up to the tasteful decor of the restaurant - both my starter and main course were bland and the lemon meringue pie was an overwhelming portion of sweet meringue and very little lemon to balance it! Our Waitress Barbara was an absolute delight which is why I have rated 4* overall

I picked the restaurant at random for dinner on a flying visit to Rochester and was very pleased! Service was fast, appropriately Italian, and efficient. Despite it being busy our food came out in good time and was well-prepared. Would be very happy to go back again on a future visit.
Rating: 4 / 5
Very generous portions ... good solid UK Italian style food. The calzone was something a family of four could have moved into! But looked really good. Definitely a good Rochester High Street establishment... give it a go!

Popped in as in the area, a lively authentic Italian restuarant in the hub of Rochester High street, easy parking opposite, exceptional service, home cooked food your Italian mumma would make, the sea food rissoto was very tasty, throughly enjoyed are meal, will come back when in the area again
Rating: 5 / 5
Best place to eat in Rochester, and surely one of the best in Kent too. Food is incredible, and served extremely quickly - the staff are all incredibly friendly and polite, the atmosphere is lovely, and the prices are very reasonable. Would highly recommend the pistachio panna cotta specifically - one of the best desserts I have eaten anywhere at any time. Thank you for a wonderful experience. I'll be back!
Rating: 5 / 5
Some of the best Italian food I've had in a long time. Our group ordered pizza, pasta, and a few starters - everything was top notch. The staff was on top of everything and extremely friendly. We don't live in Rochester, but would happily make a trip back to have dinner here again!

I hosted my partners 30th here and it was such a great venue! The food was great and they catered for gluten free. Their in house DJ was really good and everyone has such a good time! They even went out of their way to go to the shops to buy a certain spirit that my mum drinks!! Thank you again! (We have also eaten here separately to the party as well and know the food is nice!)

I have just celebrated my 30th birthday party at The Boathouse and what an absolutely perfect venue! Everyone commented on how lovely it was and all of the staff were so helpful! I would fully recommend booking this venue if you have a celebration coming up!
Rating: 5 / 5
Really beautiful inside and out, lovely cleans and bright inside. Outside has the most beautiful view of the river and so hidden away that I have only just came across this lovely place through a friend. enjoyed a glass of red. The staff are very friendly and guided me through the menu. I would like to see more for plant based/ vegans such as the mushrooms could very easily have the cheese sauce separate, so that it could be an option for vegans or non vegans. I had chips, veggie Indian style barji like things that were nice, olives and bread. My friend got the Sunday carvery and really enjoyed the options. The vegan pies where finished or I would of got the same. I'm still unsure about parking as I did see a few restrictions due to being near the station so would have to call up about that. There are a few designated spaces. Overall would definitely come back with a group of friends 😊

Great place for breakfast reasonable price nice and hot coffee is good as well very nice and polite staff
Rating: 5 / 5
This was delightful! Hidden away above the shops is a quaint little café that boasts traditional English food and quality service. Just perfect for a cold winter’s day - warmed by a hot cup of tea, delicious tuna melt and cake. I can thoroughly recommend this place, even if you have to wait on the stairs - it’s worth it. I shall definitely be returning!
Rating: 5 / 5
A lovely place on the first floor. Extremely friendly staff and a great selection of food. We came for some Afternoon Tea : the homemade sandwiches were absolutely delicious, the scones were perfect and the cakes were maybe a little too much by the end but nonetheless great. If one thing could be improved it's the choice of drinks with the afternoon tea (only one type of coffee or tea) but that's only a small note. Would recommend without doubt!
Rating: 5 / 5
Great tea room with a traditional feel. I've had fresh sandwiches, scones and cakes from here and all of them were delicious! Great service and great atmosphere - can't go wrong! 100% recommend

We popped in for hot chocolate. It was late in the day and they were close to closing but still welcomed us. If you're going to have hot chocolate, have the posh one ( see photos ) it tastes as good as it looks. I also had a slice of coffee cake, delish! They do afternoon teas and after this little sample , that is definitely on the cards. The staff were all polite,smart and efficient. The venue is upstairs so has a narrow entrance, find the bright pink sweet shop in the high street turn around and you'll see the entrance.

Top place for a full English breakfast. Ultra clean place, friendly and flexibel. The price is reasonable and plenty of free parking at the Tesco just opposite. It might not be the easiest place to find but it is well worth the detour. Something else than Wetherspoon!!

Great place if you want to experience an unique burger with good quality if meat. Everything we ordered tak away was very tasty. Portion sizes were good too. Prices seem fair for the quality. This is also a great spot to go and enjoy a pint with friends. I do recommend.
Rating: 5 / 5
Sat on a stool at the bar, with football in front and behind on the big screens, but thatbwas fine. I was staying nearby, mainly for work, and found this bar. It stood out (not so much else locally in terms of food). And walking to the bar, everywhere else was very quiet. And then somewhere, with a buzz ... The Dead Pigeon!! The burger was really excellent. Friendly service, good prices. A delivery guy has been waiting a while for a takeaway, and staff, spontaneously, offered him a drink for it taking so long. Nice touch. Nice attitude. If I stay nearby again, I'd come back. Recommended.

Fantastic bar/pub/grill! The food is amazing and I feel like no matter what your choice, you will love what you have but at the same time wish you had what someone else is. Everything on the menu looks great. The portions are more than enough, the side of beef Nik Naks was a surprise delight too. Staff are friendly and can tell they like being there and seeing the reactions from people who aren't expecting the sizes of what they ordered.

Rochester RC Cafe is situated inside an RC store but don’t let that detour you from stopping in for the best coffee,tea and sweets, a variety of sandwiches , soup or pasta bowls. The staff are so friendly and it seems the community is enjoying the new cafe as a great go to for a coffee or bite to eat.

Totally in love with the new Cafe at Rochester RC based at Rochester Airport. It is light years ahead of the former cafe onsite, offering a wide range of healthy foods and drinks along with a cheeky slice of cake!! The tea is fabulous and the prices are very reasonable for the quality you receive. The whole place is immaculate, the staff are warm and welcoming and it has a real family friendly feel. I will certainly be returning.

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.

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.
Rating: 4 / 5
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.
Rating: 5 / 5
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!
