Having recently moved to our new house in Tankerton, we quickly found that we needed some additional sockets internally and also a safe replacement circuit to serve the detached garage and rear garden pond. Casting around for a trustworthy local business, we found Peter Smitherman and many recommendations from local customers. Peter responded quickly to our enquiry, and sent Cole round to view and price up the work. Suffice to say that we were happy both with the proposed cost and Cole's friendly expertise and the work was completed to our satisfaction, on time and on estimate. We have some more electrical work to arrange later in the year and will not be looking elsewhere for this.

This is an absolute gem of a cafe. Wonderful friendly service. The food choice was good, tasty and brilliantly presented, just excellent. My wife was so relaxed, as The owner understood gluten free, which is somewhat rare nowadays. For me the Destructive Ploughman’s was superb and the home made sausage roll was yummy! Oh and the cafe is totally dog friendly! Thank you. Well done. We will be back!!

Thoroughly delightful. A very welcome spot to halt on a chilling afternoon. Cakes are amazing. Cannot recommend it too much. So why only 4 stars? In my opinion, it would be great if they could stretch to a decent hot chocolate. This place deserves better than Cadbury's drinking chocolate.

Well worthy of the high scores. Lovely staff and excellent coffee made with great care. Cakes look super, if that's your thing. Small, but perfectly formed so definitely worth a visit.

We always try to support local businesses when visiting places. This didn't disappoint, open at a good time (for us earlier birds), other cages locally not until 9.30/10. My dietary needs were met, good proper mug of tea and coffee tasted good too. Both our meals were tasty and reasonably priced. Friendly staff and owner made it too.

Impressive support and service from Mike. I chose to use 240 Electrical after an electrical failure, due to the great reviews. I did well, he was helpful, professional and knowledgeable. I now have a trusted electrician if I have any problems in the future. Highly recommended.

We called in for a coffee and were greeted by the friendly staff. We enjoyed the coffee and hearing customers around - they were all pleased too. There is a well kept area through the shop that can sit plenty of customers. It's lovely to be able support the local community and businesses.

Popped in here last minute for breakfast as the other cafes were busy and rushed. Service was lovely, portions were generous and coffee was delicious. We sat inside but there was nice seating out the back and would recommend this spot to anyone visiting the area. Prices were really reasonable - I got the bacon sarnie and left full and happy.

Very lucky I stumbled across this cafe today. Spent 8am - 4pm working from here and had the yummiest food and very warm and kind hospitality from Clive (Owner) and Cyd (Manager). Can highly recommend the avocado on toast (with bacon) and the brie and bacon ciabatta. The world needs more cafes like this 🙌🏼 - I'll absolutely be back.

My first visit to Whitstable. Decided that I fancied cake, as you do. Found this place that had a white chocolate and pistachio cake, couldn't resist. It was delicious! My parents had a massive bacon butty in doorstop bread with at least 8 rashers of bacon! Well worth a visit if you are in Whitstable 😁🍰☕

Have used this company twice now. The first for a repair 18 months ago. They were quick, efficient and did not charge for call out. The job was done properly and expertly, so when I was in the market for a new oven, I didn't consider going anywhere else. The people in the shop are friendly and helpful. Ordered and paid on the Monday, fitted on the Saturday. They arrived on time. The oven was difficult to fit due to the way the old one had been fitted (by someone else before we bought the house) but the chaps who came to fit it would not leave until they had finished the job properly. Excellent service. Friendly, trustworthy and professional. Wouldn't use anyone else.

What an amazing professional caring company! My 90 year old father needed a new fridge freezer and the Advance staff went above and beyond, ensuring timely delivery convenient for dad, taking away the old appliance without us having to defrost it, checking the new one works properly and checking dad was happy before leaving. We would 100% recommend Advance Domestic Appliances. Thank you 😊

Purchased a new oven in store on Wednesday and had the delivery and fitting on Friday by Michael and Jake - such good service. For the past 18 years, every appliance needed for both my work and home are from Advance Domestic Appliance. Friendly and service oriented, great to have their business in Whitstable

Needed a new oven when the old one was tripping the electrics. All of the big box retailers were quoting a 10-28 day turnaround. Went into the shop, and Micheal was very helpful in helping me find the right oven for our needs, and had it delivered that day. Great customer service.

Had the King's Taster with 2 sides, was easily enough to feed 3 of us. Great tasting slow cooked selection of smoked meats, falling apart on the plate. Would have gone down even better with some craft beer, only lager on the menu on our visit. Highly recommended.

Recommend this place 100%. 10/10!! We had prepaid a deposit for the Sunday BBQ- All you can eat. We were unfortunately late for our booking time but they accommodated us- giving us a later time. Which we appreciate so much. Jordan who served us was very efficient and friendly- despite us being late. We were seated and seen straight away. Drinks and menu given. The BBQ option was £28 each, that includes everything in the photo- and you can order even more afterwards. And we also ordered chips for an extra £5. Drinks are also an extra price. There are other side orders such as brisket and mac and cheese that we could have ordered too. Food was DELICIOUS!! I especially loved the pulled pork and the chicken. Food was hot and very flavourful. Maybe we could have asked but we had hoped they’d have a mix of different BBQ sauce style option's to go with our meal. ( For example: Sweet, Chipotle, Smoky or spicy) Restaurant is comfortable and has a nice atmosphere. Again, 100% recommend!!

Sunday afternoon stop for a warm beverage and sweetness. The wife didn't drink as they had no soya although did offer oat and coconut as dairy alternatives. I had an oat milk hot chocolate plus a vegan brownie. All very tasty.

Visited in the early afternoon on a Sunday in late July. I bought an iced coffee from here and it was outstanding. The price was reasonable as I recall, just a shade more than £3. It wasn’t too busy when I visited. The service was prompt and friendly. I would happily return. Would be interested in trying some of their other, non-iced coffee offerings.

First visit to JoJo's. Won't be our last. Great food and service and the ambience was spot on. All items had a perfect balance of quality ingredients with delicate spicing, cooking and presentation backed with a strong supporting cast of refreshments. Do leave space for the desserts. They are excellent too. Must include the staff who are a great team and most helpful.

A sharing platter for two was the perfect amount for a good lunch, and there was a wide variety of interesting stuff on the board, all of it tasty, fresh, and well prepared. Meats in particular were gorgeous, and the huuuuge olives are to die for. Special mention also to the amazing hummus and tzatziki. Staff seemed happy, and were helpful and attentive. So yeah. Eat here. It's really good. (No affiliation, just a happy customer.)

Up frum Lundon for a Xmas lunch. What joy! From the warm welcome and in depth discussion of the menu to the presentation of a wonderful variety of. Meze the whole experience was sheer delight. The service was seamless, faultless, friendly and fun, the flavours and freshness of the food made our lunch the best restaurant meal of the year. And we are professional lunch eaters! Cannot praise Jojos too highly. Do not visit Whitstable without taking in a Jojo Meze. Epic establishment. Memorable occasion. Thank you, Jojo.

What a place. We drop in regularly for the amazing Portuguese custard tarts and coffee (my partner is from Lisbon and she says they’re amazing). Just had a Sunday roast (beef and chicken), with a chicken liver pâté starter, bread and butter pudding and the most insane blood orange and vanilla cheescake and WOW WOW WOW. We loved it, the kids loved it - best restaurant food in Whitstable. Easily. Highly recommended. ❤️
