“Almost Decided to visit a reasonably new venue. It was quite quiet the night we visited (friday) The menu is quite short but most were things I would be delighted to eat. We decided to have different courses to spread the experience. The Amuse bouche was a wonderful summer Gazpacho. Starters were squid (mine) and prawns (friend). Both really nice dishes, the squid for me was my meal highlight. Quite liked my lamb rump but personally not a fan of the minestrone veg. My panna cotta was superb. Front of house was really nice, didn't get much contact with chef. It was a lovely meal, great food almost there. Word of caution Steps down to toilets are very steep and not deep, a bit of a challenge for the less mobile. Non alcoholic cocktails were a little weak for my taste.”

“Easily one of the best bakery's in the world. It's up there with the Two Wells Bakery back home in south Australia. Fantastic staff here and the chorizo sausage roll is always a winner.”

“We had lunch at the Small Holding today and it was an absolutely tremendous meal. Firstly we were brought some snacks to eat on the balcony with a pre-lunch drink. Then we were taken inside to the full acre (8 course) lunch. There were two starters, two fish courses, two main courses and two desserts. Every dish was wonderful. It is difficult to pick out a favourite, but I thought that the first dessert of Blackcurrant Leaf, Buttermilk and Elderberry was one of the best desserts I have ever eaten. That didn't last long though because the second dessert of Yoghurt Whey, Black Apple and Custard was at least equally good. The wine list was unusual and composed mainly of British wines. The staff were very friendly and easy and had time for a friendly chat. I can't recommend this restaurant highly enough. We will certainly be back as soon as possible, The photographs show most of the courses, but I was so enthusiastic about the food that a couple of times I forgot to photograph it before we started”

“This was a first-time visit for us to Kypseli, and it definitely won't be our last! We were a party of nine, celebrating my Mum & Dad's Emerald wedding anniversary. Everything about the experience from the moment I first contacted Kypseli to make the arrangements was perfect. The food was delicious & very authentic, and the atmosphere and attention to detail were second to none. The staff were super friendly and took care of us all wonderfully and made it very special for my Mum & Dad. Thank you for a fantastic evening. We can't wait to come back!”

“I came here for an anniversary meal and it didn't disappoint. Don't let the exterior pub-like look fool you. On the inside, it's a fine dining experience. Incredible food and service. The only reason it gets 3 stars for the atmosphere is because we went on a Monday which was very quiet. Will definitely be back for the tasting night which sounded excellent.”

“Just had a wonderful coffee and browse at Taywell Farm Shop. Perfect for fresh produce, a lovely open air setting and delicious coffee. I’ve picked up some great local wine and a gift for family, after enjoying a fantastic coffee overlooking the Kent countryside. Made all the more delightful by meeting some of the staff who were all welcoming, friendly and helpful. We will definitely be back to visit the coffee shop (round the back of the Farmshop) for more!”

“We were already big fans of The Bell but having our wedding their sealed it as our favourite pub/ hotel/ place. There aren't the words to express how grateful we are to every single person there working over our wedding weekend. A quote from one of our guests gets us closest "You said you were getting married in a pub?! This isn't a pub. This is like no where I've ever been". And they were right. The Bell really is like no place you've been. There's no pub with better food. No hotel with nicer yet so homely rooms. No place with nicer more accommodating staff. Becky made the whole wedding process so smooth and we're endlessly grateful to her for that. But everyone working over the course of the weekend helped my husband and I have the best few days imaginable. If you're considering it as your wedding venue, do it! We'd do it all over again if we could!”

“What a lovely pub! Just popped in for an afternoon drink and had a great time sitting in the sunshine watching the birds- and when I say birds, I mean the ducks, Guinea fowl and peacocks that call the pub garden home! Very reasonably priced, with very friendly bar staff and clean facilities. I look forward to going back to try their food soon :)”
