Rating: 4.9 (467) Price Level:
Wonderful meal - absolutely top rated!! Unique and delicious flavours and really tender meat! Beautiful venue with a lovely atmosphere, staff were superb, attentive but not pushy and the nicest touch was to have the chef come round to your table to ask whether we had enjoyed our meal was a really lovely touch! They really care that your experience is good! Will certainly be back thank you. !
Rating: 5 / 5
Really great night, chef spent the time to come and talk to all the tables, and all the staff were lovely. Food was fabulous, really different from the mainstream, from starters to mains everything was so full of flavour. A well thought out menu, with a little humour thrown in. The live music topped the night off nicely.

What can I say, this place is a hidden gem. The restaurant has been retrofitted into a lovely ambient setting, there’s some lovely reminders of the building’s previous use but it equally makes an excellent restaurant setting. The food is delectable, it’s not greasy Indian cuisine where you will find excess salt and oil. The choice is excellent, there’s something for everyone. I had the butter chicken and it was the best I have had. The cheeky play on words make this an exciting menu which has incorporated local humour. During our visit this evening the top of the Christmas tree was was adorned with a traffic cone, alluding to local humour around Chatham’s infamous Thomas Waghorn statue which is regularly seen sporting a traffic cone. Will I visit again?? Hell yeah, do I recommend?? Absolutely. These people care about the food they serve and care their customers had a great time. Hats off to Gurkha Fire this is 5*

Took my clients here for a night out. From organising the event to saying goodbye at the end of the evening, we had the best time. We were well looked after. Best service we’ve had in a long time- Very organised. Lovely to meet the chef and we were checked on throughout the night. Food was amazing and we had some great cocktails. 5 star from me! Definitely give it a go.

This place is so good that it’s actually increased the value of Chatham. I can’t name another place in the local area that has the class to bring in people who are well dressed and make the effort. It’s nice to have something in the local area that makes it better. The food and the atmosphere makes you feel like your uptown in London or somewhere fancy because it feels very classy and clean. Food is top tier and just the overall experience is something you would expect from a fancy restaurant up in London. 100% recommend especially for get togethers or celebratory meals. The staff and owners are good people and good on them for taking the leap.

My one-stop destination for mouth-watering, hot out of the oven, delicious pizzas. We ordered half a pepperoni and half a chicken veggie pizza which just melted in our mouths. We also had some nice chicken strips with garlic sauce. Lovely staff. I would absolutely recommend it!!
Rating: 5 / 5
Oh my god! I can’t tell how good these pizzas are. I’ve ordered a pepperoni pizza and a Coke Zero. The staff here are friendly and polite! I’ve loved the atmosphere here! The pizza was fresh and hot! You can add double cheese to your pizza (which I’ve did). The pizza had a nice cheese pull which I’ve enjoyed! Basically the BEST pizzas around Medway!
Rating: 5 / 5
Delicious fresh pizza and the best cheesy garlic bread ever. Ordered at 9:10pm it said it would be here at 10pm but it was here at about 9:40pm! Very reasonable price at just under £18 with delivery, I will definitely be ordering again. 10/10
Rating: 5 / 5
I was blown away by the quantity and quality of the food here. We ordered a couple of make your own pizzas and they were delicious great bases and nice fresh toppings. Cook time was very fast and efficient. I will definitely be ordering from here in the future instead of the Papa John's or Dominos as this place blows them out of the water if you want a tasty authentic pizza delivered

The food was amazing my family has been coming to this specific Fireaway pizza location for quite some time as the pizzas are amazing! The lady who created our pizza, Lauren was so friendly and nice, and brought a positive atmosphere that I really enjoyed will be coming back! Thanks again!

Definitely worth a try, I have tried a variety of similar restaurants/bars and this was up there with the best. A few brilliantly made cocktails and a full stomach. The pasta and burgers reminded me of a well cooked homemade meal 😁
Rating: 5 / 5
The food was amazing, the service was outstanding and we really enjoyed visiting this place. The tables and the chairs and the style of the interior is very lovely and modern. In addition, it is very clean in here. The bathroom was clean and not smelly at all. The design of the bathroom is very lovely and refreshing. Food that gets served it fresh and amazing, we tried Kinki Burgers, and a few other dishes, some desserts and milkshakes, every single food item that we tried we enjoyed very much. At first when we arrived we were a little bit suspicious because it is brand new and there isn’t many reviews, however as I mentioned the service was outstanding and we will be coming back. The lady that served us was very friendly and lovely to chat to, she demonstrated good service and welcoming behaviour. Anyways overall everything is 10/10. Thank you for the service.

Spur of the moment booking for a date night with the Mrs. We were thoroughly impressed with the food, slightly overwhelmed by the size of the portions but food was unbelievable. Two of us had 5 starters, 3 second courses, 4 mains and 2 sides. Plus a bottle of wine and several vodka based drinks, whole meal came to less than £100 including the tip I added (no service charge here but you pay before you eat) Can't recommend highly enough, a real diamond in the rough that is Chatham.

I have been here many times and it’s a lovely place with lovely staff and lovely ambience. The food is great, I had a hummus starter with lamb in it which was mouth watering and the fillet steak was amazing too and the shisha is great too. I love the fact that as soon as you go in this restaurant, you forget that you’re in Chatham and it makes you feel as if you are uptown. Thank you

I can't recommend this place enough – it's perfect for any occasion! I've been here with family, friends, and even hosted my work team's Christmas party, and every time has been fantastic. The staff is super attentive, and the food is consistently amazing. We even got surprise shots on the house, which was a delightful touch! So grateful to have such a wonderful spot locally for all our celebrations. Huge thanks to the team for always providing a great experience!

We had a wonderful Impromptu lunch here today — the food was excellent and service was attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable. Started w tuna tataki, followed by halibut in a delicious miso sauce w black rice. Lovely w local Kent wine. Highly recommend!

I first discovered the Copper Rivet strawberry gin, which I liked so much I researched and found out about the distillery and restaurant along the river in Chatham.. and I had to experience dining at the place that made such a good quality gin. We were not disappointed.. quality cocktails, service and food.. you do pay a bit more but for a special occasion it’s just perfect.. first we had drinks outside with lovely views along the river, and blankets provided in case it gets chilly (we actually had a bit of sun!!).. and then inside the amazing building for dinner.. the food blew us away and my husband told the waitress he wanted to marry the chef 😂 which I totally understood… will definitely go back and look forward to it! And the triple cooked chips which we will have with whatever we order..

Brilliant lunch-time dining experience with highly attentive service, friendly staff and impeccable dishes in a very pleasant dining room. The lunch specials were each very impressive and incredible value for money. The dockyard area nearby was additionally very scenic. Highly recommended, will be back again!

The pumproom is the perfect place for an occasion. It’s on the pricier side, but it’s honestly worth every penny! We went for our wedding anniversary and had put it on the booking form. They welcomed us with a card on the table, we had a free cocktail and some fudge at the end of the meal too. The staff were lovely and so knowledgeable about everything on the menu. We had every course going and the flavours in every part were beautiful. Lots of combinations you wouldn’t necessarily find elsewhere, the bone marrow fondue was our absolute highlight. The cocktails menu is extensive and there’s loads with alcohols from the distillery to choose from. It’s also lovely to have the view out onto the river with Upnor castle in the distance. Such a gem to find in Chatham, we loved it!

Absolutely perfect. My partner and I like doing date nights here as its a place you can dress up nicely and fit in. Not many places you can dress up now and not feel over dressed you do get all sorts of people eat here from the families, group of middle aged friends to the workers. The atmosphere is delightful clean and colourful with music playing in the background. The staff are quick to serve and will take any requests. The staff look wonderful in there neat uniforms and really do treat the customers well on every occasion I have been. The food is freshly cooked and perfectly cooked. No cold food or raw food here and the food is always cooked the same which is brilliant if you find a favourite meal as you know it will always be the same.My partner normally has chicken tikka but sadly they cook it a way he doesn't like as the sauce used reminds him too much of tomato soup but that's preference. We have actually ordered from just eat too and believe it or not the food is the exact same quality as if you were actually dining in. Will admit when we order poppadoms we get dips at the restaurant but a couple of times we didn't when we ordered delivery but other times we did so not sure if it's an extra or meant to come for free. We spend between 60 to 70 which is really worth it for an intermate dinner for 2 which has starters 2 mains with sides naan and couple of alcoholic drinks. The atmosphere is so relaxed that unless you are unfortunate to have rowdy diners to which we never have you can thoroughly enjoy the place with great food, good staff, wonderful music and top notch company truly amazing for date nights.

"I’ve been coming to Ghurka Brothers for years, and they never disappoint! This time I enjoyed their Gurkhali Lamb Chops—absolutely packed with flavor—and the House Special Assorted Kebabs, which were tender and perfectly spiced. If you're a lamb lover, I highly recommend trying the lamb chops! 🐑🔥 Ghurkha brothers wasn’t too busy when we visited, so there was plenty of seating, which made it a great spot to catch up with old friends in a relaxed atmosphere. 🍽️ The service was attentive and friendly, ensuring we had everything we needed. Whether dining in or using their takeaway service, I've always had a great experience here. For anyone looking for a flavorful meal with good service, Ghurka Brothers is a must-visit. I'll definitely be back again! 🍴"

My preferred take away. Really good and big portions. Food always arrives very hot and of course delicious. We order mixture of curries with both chicken and lamb. Inever nad a bad piece of chicken and the portion is enough for me for two days. Lamb very tender, easy to cut with spoon, just melt in your mouth. Until next take away night, thank you! Too delicious to wait and take a photo. Maybe next time 😉

11 of us went here last night for my Mum's birthday. It was really busy so obviously very popular. The atmosphere was lovely and relaxed. Food was absolutely delicious and the staff were very friendly. We had a lovely evening. They even played the happy birthday song and brought out a cheesecake with a candle in for my Mum with the added bonus of a big bottle of beer (which they knew my Mum liked as she was drinking lager anyway 😄). Would highly recommend and will definitely go back.

It's the second time I've been to The Watling and both times have been excellent. Food was lovely the best Indian I've had in a long time. Also, even though they were extremely busy on a Friday evening near Christmas, the service was still good. We will be back when we are next in the area. ... PREVIOUS REVIEW In unfamiliar surroundings and looking for a nice Indian restaurant we found Watling Rasoi on Google. It seemed to have nice reviews and pictures looked good. We called on a Easter Thursday and managed to get a table within 15 minutes. Wow, it was lovely. A very friendly welcome and very accommodating even though we wanted a different table. Great selection of drinks and probably the best draft Cobra I've had in a long time. They even had Cranberry juice!.. Great selection of dishes, Salmon Tikka, and other Salmon dishes. Nice to see Broccoli side and Courgette side, we indulged in both 😁. Poppadoms were fresh crispy and Tasty with a good selection of chutneys. Garlic Chili Chicken was also very tasty. The service was friendly and efficient throughout the whole evening without being overbearing. Such a lovely find at last minute. Thank you very much guys we will be back.

LOVE LOVE LOVE this establishment. The quality, quantity & freshness of food is amazing! Our daughter (15) is autistic & struggles with food sensitivity. However, she cleared the plate & asked for more. Safe to say this has now become 1 of our family favourite takeaways (order through justeat!) Big thanks to the management of the restaurant ;0)
