The Best Restaurants in Broadstairs, Kent, United Kingdom (2025)

Visited on a Bank holiday weekend! Definitely worth booking. We ordered several plates to try a selection from the menu and I have to say that we were not disappointed! Everything was delicious, flavourful and freshly made. Service was friendly but not too fast (possibly because of the bank holiday). I would definitely recommend and visit again. Note: the place is not dog friendly (only outside)

This is one of our favorite seafood restaurants. We have been here on several occasions during different seasons, and every time the food tastes even better. The atmosphere is amazing, the staff is incredibly welcoming and friendly. If you are visiting Broadstairs, definitely worth booking a table.

Absolutely delicious, had the oysters, scallops, cerviche, trio of fish, aranci, lobster (which was huge!), lemon dessert and the chocolate fondant, which was unreal. Very well ran service and all the staff were excellent. Highly recommend!

The food was great. A bit disappointed with the octopus but in general it was very good. They served everything extremely fast not letting us getting into the atmosphere of the place and it was difficult to enjoy the experience plently. I was expecting a bit more from a Michelin place to be honest. Extra Michelins to the cocktail expert behind the bar, nice, kind, amazingly good and skillfull!

Absolutely delicious food and the service was impeccable. I picked up one starter from their specials menu, followed by the stake and as a desert I had tiramisu. This is definitely a place I would visit again in the future.

As someone who’s not particularly fond of Italian food and doesn’t often leave reviews, I have to say this restaurant truly impressed me. From the food to the wine, the service, and the overall atmosphere, everything was exceptional! First off the wine was outstanding, which was a great start! But the only time I’ve really enjoyed Italian cuisine was during a trip to Sorrento and Positano, but this little gem in Broadstairs matched—if not surpassed—the experience. Our waiter was incredibly accommodating. I’m vegan, and my friend was torn between two dishes, so they went above and beyond to create off-menu main dishes for us, with the chef personally delivering them to our table. The flavors were the most authentic we've had outside of Italy. After chatting with our waiter, it was clear that the passion they have for their work and making this place a success is unmatched. Highly recommend! Will be returning regularly!

Amazing meal with a friend. Service was excellent and the food delicious.....also the best Negroni I've had for a while....

Leonardo and the team have created probably the best authentic Italian restaurant in this area. If you truly love and understand Italian food then your experience will be mind blowing because the food and the combinations of different flavours they create a like nothing you’ve tasted. The staff are so welcoming it’s like being part of their family. They took care of you. I wanna make sure you have the most memorable experience Keep up the incredible work cannot wait to return ❤️

Absolutely fantastic food, I had sea food linguine, amazing,my son had sea bream, and Bombay potatoes, something else that dinner, highly recommend

Absolutely loved this restaurant. Food was amazing service exceptional can't rate it high enough already booked to go back again

Had lunch in the restaurant upstairs Really cozy with great views The service was impeccable, really looked after and took great care with our not allergy. Food was excellent and really good portion size Would definitely recommend

This is an amazing restaurant that serves the best seafood. The staff was well informed and a very good customer service.

Great delicious food, especially the lamb shish, friendly service, salad was given for free when asked for olives which did not expect. Was nice and quiet in the afternoon and the toilet facilities are very clean and modern. I find some of the menu a bit overpriced, but I would still visit again when hopefully visit broadstairs again.

What a wonderful place with wonderful service in a great location. If your just looking for a snack or a full entre, this is the place for you. Authentic Turkish delights await your palate and all served with a smile by a lovely staff like Amy who represents the restaurant very well. Order the Prawn casserole for a real treat. Those of you who know my larger blog will see more detail of this and other venues in the great village of Broadstairs.

Shish chicken kebab was good flavors and chicken wasn't dry. I was hoping for pocket pita bread to scoop the yogurt and chicken into, but received pieces of pita. The pita bread was tasty but hoped to make it easier to eat with the pita. The king prawn casserole was ordered by several in our group and it was loved by all. Cocktails were well made and a nice selection of wine and beer on hand. I would try again.

Absolutely excellent flavours. The best meal out in a while. We tried most of the starters and sides- and every dish was full of layers of flavour. Really gorgeous food, lovely genuine service. We will return.

Lovely tapas. An exceptional place. Some dishes were extremely salty such as the fish but other wise we are extremely happy that we tried this place. Lemon parfait dessert was out of this world! Can't wait to come back again.

Visited for lunch. The wine list was good and included some local wines. Small plates were all very good. The burrata was particularly good, really vibrant flavours. Great setting right at the beach. Dog and child friendly.

Their small plates concept allowed us to share and try a bit of everything, which made the experience even better. The seafood was incredibly fresh and locally sourced, and you can tell each dish was thoughtfully prepared. The staff were super friendly and made great recommendations that really enhanced our meal.

One of the best Thais I've had in a long time. Mushroom soup is to die for! Pad Thai too. Everything is super fresh, light batter and true authentic Thai spices that are full of flavour. Highly recommend!! It's a family business and you can tell they care. So attentive and helpful. Love this place.

Absolutely fabulous, the food is sooooooo good, and the atmosphere is so enjoyable it makes you want to go again which we shall do with family next Tuesday.

went on an off chance to eat .could not of picked a better place to eat the staff were amazing so kind and helpful. We were allowed to bring our own drinks and they even put them in the fridge to keep cool. Perfect, we could not decide on what to eat so we were given a set meal and it was absolutely wonderful .so much to eat so fresh and varied,. Perfect place to eat and very reasonable price. Would highly recommend

Arrived in Broadstairs to catch up with old friends, but in the mean time we needed something to eat. In all those years we lived in kent we never went here, but meant to, so we did and we weren't disappointed. It's bring your own drills, we didn't just had water. We ordered the chicken satay for a nibble and then a green beef curry & pork with peppers and spring onions. Very very nice. Would most definitely return when we return to visit 😁. The staff very polite and friendly. I was so hungry I nearly done my normal trick and forgot the photos 🤪

My friends and I came here for my birthday and I couldn't ask for a better meal. The staff were amazing and the food was just as good. Would highly recommend to anyone when you're in Broadstairs. The free birthday lemon meringue pie was a bonus

I decided to book a table in advance, just to be safe, especially after reading the reviews! Gotta say that all the food was absolutely delicious but for me, from the sharing platter, the corn on the cob, that looked like ribs, were top notch. The texture and rub was extremely moreish and something completely new. We had Ribeye, Pulled Pork Burger and Grilled Fillet of Salmon with King Prawns for mains. The owner Vince was extremely polite, informative and enthusiastic for his food and if we're in the area again, we'll definitely be back for more!

The Smokehouse in Broadstairs. This little restaurant has been taken over by Vince, an enthusiastic and passionate owner. He’s welcoming and can’t do enough. I called several weeks ago to book a table for my family and in particular my daughter whose birthday it was. He asked how I has heard about them, and I explained that about 3 years ago we went there, again for my daughters birthday, where we had a super time, great food and nice staff. So when he told me he had just taken it over, and hoped we would have just as good a time as the previous occasion, I gave him the benefit of the doubt. We arrived at the designated time, to a warm welcome and shown to our table. Vince came to take the drinks order and offered a plethora of various types of gin along with many types of tonic….who knew there were so many types! The drinks came along with the food menu. We sat for some time perusing the menu, and decided on our dinners. Wendy, our waitress took our orders and we chatted between ourselves for a little while, when the starters arrived. 2 Prawn cocktails, 1 shell on prawns with a delicious chilli sauce and 1 deep fried mozzarella balls with a chilli dip, and grilled halloumi cheese with sweet chilli dip, all plates cleared and 4 happy customers. There was silence as we ‘hmmmed’ and sighed with each mouthful. There was never a long wait between courses, so when the mains arrived we all tucked in. 1 rare ribeye, 1 medium ribeye, 1 pulled pork burger and 1 smokehouse beef burger, along with the sides, which included 3 portions of chunky chips and 1 bacon and herb croquet, out of everything there the side dish that stood out was the onion rings, thin, crispy and the batter was so fine, these are a must!!! Again we all ate up and enjoyed the food. Don’t change the butcher, the ribeye was sooo tender, tasty and beautifully cooked. We weren’t sure wether a pudding was in order, but it was my girls birthday, so we made room on the waist bands!!! 1 profiteroles (yummmeee) 1 sticky toffee pudding with custard, 1 chocolate brownie cake with ice cream and 1 millionaire shortcake with ice cream. Needless to say, after all that, there were 4 full and happy ladies, I asked each of my girls what mark they would offer if asked. With no hesitation it was 4 nines. Just a few tweaks here and there and you’ll get a full house. Considering you have been open for a matter of weeks…bravo👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 Thank you Vince and staff, a lovely evening was had by all. Ps, the atmosphere was nice but too much chat from a large table of lads about football, who knew there was 3 hours of it to listen to? ,

Great food, fantastic flavours, and great service, well worth a visit. The tables are really spacious, much more space than some other local restaurants.

Delicious food with generous portions, nice Turkish music, and great presentation. I personally ordered the mixed kebab, which included very juicy chicken, lamb, and kofte. I also tried the chicken beyti that someone else in our group ordered, and that was tasty as well! Complementary bread and olives provided, as well as burma for dessert and tea. Overall, everyone enjoyed their meal would happily come again. Service was good too, very friendly people here!

Went with a large group of 26 people. Huseyin and his team were very professional and patient with us. A sincere thanks to all at Cardak for ensuring we had a good lunch time on our trip to Broadstairs.

Excellent service, lovely food and drinks. Highly recommend

First and far most, I want to say that what ever the brilliant reviews about this place have said so far, just like mine, are all understatement of what an amazing place this is. We were here for a week holiday and despite the very many amazing eating place in Broadstairs, we couldn't resist coming back here the second time after our first visit. I have nothing by great reviews for this place, the food is fantastic and freshly prepared. The staff are delightful and go above and beyond to ensure you have a pleasant experience . The decoration is amazing. The hygiene og yhe place is excellent. Without a doubt this is such a perfect restaurant that I keep finding myself going back time after time, highly recommend you visit and you won’t be disappointed.

The food here is always stunning. The staff are really friendly. The restaurant is spotless, Whats not to like. Its amazing.

Top Quality food, and the service matches it perfectly—I always love coming here. The cocktails are amazing, with incredible flavor. The pizzas have officially taken the top spot for me, even over those in Broadstairs. I had a wonderful evening; the staff was attentive and friendly. I’ll definitely be back!

Amazing fresh and delicious food, great staff and service. We had the mussels and bread to start, sausage and mushroom pizza, special beef Ragu and ice-cream and canoli for dessert. Also had virgin strawberry daquris which were amazing! If it's your birthday, they do music and candles included in dessert 😄

I can’t compliment this place more. The service was top tier and this was, without a doubt, the best vegan pizza I’ve ever had. So delicious and flavourful, with an impressive cheese pull! Simply wonderful! HIGHLY recommend!

I would give this amazing restaurant a 10 star review but that's not possible, The food Is The best food I have ever tried in any restaurant and the food is perfectly seasoned and perfectly cooked and presented and it is a very clean restaurant and even has outside seating with a water bowl for your pets , the service was AMAZING and the staff were so helpful and didn't judge that I had only tried a microwave gyros wrap ... I think greek food is my new favourite thing and if I lived here I would be here every day 🤣🤷🏼‍♀️. Thank you to the staff who served me and my daughter. 👌👌👌👌

I received this massive pork gyros, took a bite of it and it was glorious! Outstanding quality of ingredients and size for value is great! Best authentic gyros in Kent.

Love this little Greek restaurant.. Food is delicious the staff are friendly and welcoming and love eating outside in the summer. We ordered from the lunch time menu Prawn Saganaki starter and Chicken kebab for main meal sooo delicious and at just £21 total bill between 2 people you simply cannot go wrong. Excellent
