Phone: 01843 833864
“We’re here on holiday and our friends recommended Quince. The staff were so accommodating when I requested a vegan meal, and my apparently many dislikes of others ingredients they suggested (I didn’t realise I didn’t like so much!)! The food was absolutely amazing and the staff were so welcoming, friendly and knowledgable! I’d say the price is completely fair for the quality and size of the portions! Would highly recommend!”

Phone: 01843 831851
“Outstanding service, exceptional food and an unbeatable location. As we weren't feeling hungry, we decided to have starters only. We had the calamari which are covered in tempura batter and this is one of the best I've had in decades, tender, tasty, juicy and delicious. We also had the grilled tiger king prawns on sourdough toast, these are truly tiger king prawns cooked to perfection, with a delicious garlic sauce. We finished off on the homemade scotch eggs which were awesome. Highly recommend for exceptional food service and location.”

The Parlour
11-13 Minnis Rd, Birchington-on-Sea, Birchington CT7 9SD, UK
Phone: 01843 841800
“Dining at the Parlour is always a delightful experience, and even after 10 years, it remains as exceptional as ever. Kelly and her daughter manage the front of the house, while Glen, a seasoned chef with a history of working in top Kentish Pubs, including the Old Coach & Horses, The Compasses at Crundale, The Chapter Arms at Chartham Hatch, and the George at Newnham, runs the kitchen. It's a family-run business with a strong family ethos. Glen sources all food locally and prepares it with care. Years ago, he transformed an ice cream parlour into the charming venue it is today, complete with original 1930s artwork on the walls. The menu ranges from ice creams, coffee, and homemade cakes to wholesome dishes reminiscent of childhood favorites, catering to all tastes and budgets. The parlour, situated on the outskirts of Birchington's bustling high street, is a popular spot for both locals and visitors, offering limited roadside parking. After an extensive refurbishment, they've reopened, ready to welcome both new and returning patrons. On my recent visit from Canterbury with a friend, a former patron of the Old Coach & Horses, we hadn't booked, but they graciously accommodated us. I messaged Glen en-route. I savoured the Slow Roasted Belly of Pork with crispy crackling and apple puree, accompanied by roast potatoes and vegetables, all brought together with a rich gravy reduction that was simply divine. My friend opted for the Sausage and Mash with Mustard Gravy, which was also perfectly prepared with a flavourful onion gravy. To finish I had a dark truffle chocolate torte dessert with sprinkles of frozen raspberries, and a raspberry swirl ice-cream, it was delicious. As others have said you got to eat here if you want the best in Birchington in my humble opinion. Well done to Glen and the family for keeping up the best standards.”
