Notorious BRG Canterbury

Our quest to find the ultimate burger bar may finally be over. The burgers were perfectly cooked and tasted amazing alongside a gorgeous portion of cheesy chips. The service was quick, and the staff were polite. If you're looking for awesome burgers, check this place out....Hopefully, they'll open a shop on Ashford soon.
Rating: 5 / 5
This was genuinely one of the best burgers I’ve had in the UK (coming from an American). The burgers were juicy and the flavor was incredible. The duck fries were also amazing—perfectly crispy and delicious. The location is pretty small, so large parties should probably do take out, but as a group of 5, it worked out well. I’d wholeheartedly recommend this spot!
Rating: 5 / 5
Nice atmosphere, food and drink were served quickly. I was surprised the burger looked like the picture and it tasted so good. I got Cajun fries Regular, with BRG burger and a coke for around £18, £10 burger, £5 for fries, £2-3 for coke. Worth having a bite. Might be worth bringing cash as the electronic payments machine sometimes does not work.
Rating: 5 / 5
Very tasty & juicy burger. Several fries styles. Very welcoming staff (as long as you close the door going in/out ;) ) Only ~7 seats to eat on-site.
Rating: 5 / 5
100% amazing!!!! Hands down, the best burger we ever had. Tasty, flavoursome, fresh ingredients. All flavours work well together, without one flavour, overpowering the other one. We ordered the blue cheese burger ,and the PIG /pulled pork, and two generous portions of chips ( skin on and cheese) . Plus a cider each. Staff were friendly and helpful. The place it self was very clean and tidy. We don’t live close ( rather quite far away near Leeds) but if we lived closer, we would be regulars. It’s a must visit place !

Came as a group of 5 to celebrate my sisters birthday. We had the bottomless brunch which was absolutely brilliant! Our server Lucian was on it making sure we always had drinks. He was a good laugh and service was quick. Thanks Lucian and Las Iguanas - we'll be back for sure!

We went for dinner on a Wednesday evening so the place was quiet. The food was nice, I had a burrito and a nice cold Mexican beer. Not bad, but not as good as I was expecting.

Las Iguanas is hands down the best place to go for a fun, vibrant dining experience! From the moment we arrived, the atmosphere was buzzing with energy, and the staff were beyond amazing.They were so lovely, friendly, and attentive throughout the entire evening, making us feel right at home. Now, let’s talk about the cocktails! They have an incredible selection, but the piña colada is an absolute standout—perfectly blended, refreshing, and just the right amount of sweetness. Easily one of the best I’ve ever had! The happy hour deals are also fantastic, making it the perfect spot to unwind with friends or celebrate a special occasion. On top of that, the food was delicious with a great variety of flavors and dishes to choose from. It’s clear that Las Iguanas puts a lot of thought and effort into every part of the experience, from the quality of the drinks to the warm, welcoming service. Whether you're popping in for cocktails or a full meal, this place never disappoints. I can’t recommend it enough this is truly the best spot in town for great food, amazing drinks, and outstanding service. I’ll definitely be back!

It was a welcoming and wonderful experience, I planned a surprise dinner for my partner with friends. Gabe helped me out big time, pulled off the surprise and helped set up the table with decorations. The restaurant was beautifully presented, and the cocktails were amazing! Thank you for making the experience memorable, Gabe 🙌🏾😁

We went to La Cabana on graduation day, and we were lucky that they had tables free for us and seated us very quickly. The staff were lovely and very accommodating. The food was really tasty and great portion sizes! The atmosphere was great, with a nice intimate restaurant with great music. We would definitely come again, and would absolutely recommend to go to!
Rating: 5 / 5
Great food in an amazing location close to the Canterbury Cathedral. The restaurant is a fusion between classic dishes (you can find pizza, pasta, burgers) and Romanian cuisine. Romanian cuisine focuses on good meat and good quality ingredients, if you want to try some authentic dishes I would recommend the smoked aubergine salad, mititei and for dessert the Dracula's heart (actually called papanași, freshly made in the kitchen, the waiting is worthwhile). The service is very friendly and helpful and the restaurant looks amazing!

Cosy Club

Rating: 4.5 (590) Price Level:
The ambience of the restaurant is inviting. The staff are professional, polite, and know the menu inside out. They are very welcoming. We love the decor and the food is very good. Parking is about 10 minutes' walk to the restaurant. I'm not sure, though, if there is any other access to the basement toilets. The lift is only accessible from the ground floor. Overall, I'm happy to recommend it.

Can’t believe i’ve lived in Canterbury for 3 years and never been here! Absolutely 10/10. can’t fault it. Great for all occasions fancy or casual. i Went for my grad celebrations & had the funniest time. Lunch menu was amazing!! and the service was super! Will definitely be coming back to try the breakfast & dinner menu! Thank you for making our meal so lovely!

First time here and I can honestly say it won’t be the last, service was very good. They were busy with Christmas parties but they were prompt. Food was good but the cocktails are such good value for money, if you go between a certain time it’s 2 cocktails for £12.95 bargain
Rating: 5 / 5
I'd never known that Cosy Club existed until someone I know had recommended going. A friend and I were visiting Canterbury for a bottomless brunch at another venue and just had to visit to find out how nice it was for ourselves. It was a Sunday early evening, and quiet when we arrived. Our welcome was super friendly, and the service at the bar was good. Cocktails were 2 for £12.95 which is brilliant! We didn't have much time available before our booking elsewhere, although we tried to push back our other booking so we could stay longer, but was unfortunately unsuccessful in getting hold of the other venue, which was a shame. Despite this, we had enjoyed our first drink so much that we decided to go back for another before ending our evening and heading home. The lady at the bar even brought them outside for us! The decor is absolutely stunning, drinks tasted amazing and were served with a smile. We would definitely be back to try more of the cocktail menu!😍

Went here for Christmas Eve dinner and it was amazing! I've wanted to go to this place for a long time and regretted that I didn't do it earlier!! The atmosphere and interior are simply incredible, you can look at the scenery and paintings forever, they are all so beautiful!! The food was delicious, we chose a few starters and also my friends chose two main dishes At our request, all the food was brought to us at the same time, for which I thank you very much🙂 Everything was delicious, especially arancini and shrimp 🤤 All the staff were very friendly and attentive, the service was impeccable The star was Bella, who served our table, she was incredibly pleasant and made our evening special Thank you!

We had a wonderful lunch at The Cook's Tale Restaurant in Canterbury! As soon as we arrived, we were greeted by Asher, our host, who was friendly, welcoming, and very knowledgeable about the menu. He made sure our dietary requirements were carefully addressed and guided us through the options. We opted for the Meat and Vegetarian Thali, and both were absolutely delicious — full of vibrant flavors and beautifully presented. What truly stood out was the exceptional service. During our meal, Chef Alfie came over to check on us, asking if we were enjoying our food and if we had any feedback. It was a lovely personal touch that made the experience even more memorable. The restaurant itself had a cosy, festive atmosphere, with Christmas decorations adding a warm touch to the environment. Overall, a fantastic dining experience, with excellent food, great service, and a welcoming ambience. Highly recommended!

Wow, what an amazing experience. Came here for our 23rd anniversary meal, and went for the 12 course tasting menus with matched wines. After the first couple of courses I was a little worried that we would not be full by the end, but by the end of the tenth course we were both struggling to take another bite. Had the food not been so good, we may have given up, but it was amazing and we persevered, and now we are both uncomfortably full but so happy with what we have eaten. The service was impeccable, you rarely get it so good in this country. The food was rich, delicious and wholesome, and varied enough to keep the most eclectic palate happy. The wines were incredibly well paired, and each one delicious in their own right, but elevated to another level with the paired food. It is a little off the beaten track, but worth going out of your way to find. No regrets at all with choosing this marvellous restaurant, we will be singing praises to our friends and family and would heartily recommend to anyone.

I have been visiting The Cook’s Tale for at least eight years now and I always have a wonderful experience. The food is simply delicious! It's fine dining quality at a mid-range price. If you are able to take advantage of one of their monthly deals, it's insanely good value for money. The service has always been very attentive. As a vegetarian I love the quantity and variety of vegetarian dishes - it's clear they aren't some afterthought. Something else that I really appreciate about The Cook’s Tale is that unlike many other restaurants in a similar price range they don't automatically add gratuity to the bill, it's left to you to decide how much you want to tip. If you are considering visiting The Cook’s Tale, stop thinking and go now! You won't regret it.

My husband and I booked for the Indian high tea. It was on an offer and we love high tea, so we figured we would try it. It was all so amazing. There was a tone of variety of both sweet and savoury and the masala chai tea we got was very nice. The service was quick and attentive. Such a fun and unique twist- our favourite was the spiced chocolate cake and the potato sandwich. We cleaned our plates!

The Corner House

Rating: 4.7 (971) Price Level:
We had Sunday Roast here. The chicken was grilled to perfection. The beef was also very tasty but one piece tasted like lamb(?). Portions not that big, but in the end big enough. The Lager beer tasted like a top fermented beer but was good. Dessert then really made this meal perfect, especially the sticky toffee pudding! Coffee a bit too acidic for my taste.

Went for lunch with my Mum, excellent service and very good value set menu. I had the flat iron steak with a side of delicious chips. Unfortunately my steak was overdone, I asked for medium but it was well done-I didn't mention it at the time-i'm sure they would have made me another if I made a fuss, but it was still OK. Mum had fish pie which she enjoyed. Treacle tart for desert was very good.

We had a lovely dinner with the family. Very child friendly restaurant. The ambiance and food are fantastic! We highly recommend the Beef Wellington. Their home made ice-cream is delicious too. Definitely recommend!!!
Rating: 5 / 5
Some of the best dishes I have ever tasted. A beautiful setting, attentive staff. Great wine list with plenty of affordable options by the glass, designed for experimentation. But the food is by far the brightest star. The savoury blue cheese cheesecake with beetroot jam is the most stunning dish I have tasted this year; and the flavour will be something I remember for years to come. Everything was excellent, but also deserving of special mention was the dark chocolate torte with hazelnuts blackberry sorbet. A stunning mixture of flavours, executed perfectly.

Went there for dinner tonight and was very happy with my whole order and service. The food was honestly great, found no fault with it whatsoever.

Nice place to have dinner on St Peter’s Street. Friendly service and good food. We were there at the end of the evening and some dishes and beers were not available anymore. Outside seating, very nice to watch people passing by. Vega options scored most points!

Been here a few times on my travels to Canterbury and it is always delicious and delightful. The menu is full of lots of different options and a very reasonable priced set menu is also avaliable. A handy location for the theatre and has lots of seating inside and a few outside for alfresco dinning. Staff very welcoming and friendly, will be going again!

Ate here last night and the food was amazing I had the lamb chops, husband had the duck breast. The staff are so friendly too and very efficient. We will definitely be returning when we are back in Canterbury. 🥰

Great Little restaurant right around the corner from the theatre and the cathedral. We popped in for dinner and had the duck breast and wild mushroom risotto. Both were perfectly prepared and the presentation was top notch as well. The kids had burgers and even those weren't small little burgers - proper portions. The host was very friendly and accommodated us even though we didn't have a reservation. Good service overall. Overall, I was extremely impressed with the Marlowe's. The prices was also very reasonable given the portions and quality of the food. I'll definitely visit again when I'm in Canterbury again.

El Sol is a fantastic find near the cathedral, offering a cozy yet vibrant atmosphere. The paella is a must-try—worth the wait and absolutely delicious. The tapas were also top-notch, showcasing a variety of traditional Spanish flavors. The service was outstanding, with friendly and attentive staff who made the experience even better. Whether you're nearby or just passing through, El Sol is well worth a visit.

This restaurant is great with lovely Tapas and a very cosy feel. Really enjoyed the octopus, the chorizo and fab padron peppers. Took 1 star off as when it's busy, it's a bit tight for space. Our table on 15th November was right next to the bar area where everyone waits for their table. Try the food though!

We are staying in Canterbury and were completely thrilled with the food and service and atmosphere at The Lady Luck! The vegan choices were so many and difficult to choose - all sounded amazing! We shared the Mushroom Bourguignon Pie with mashed potatoes, gravy, and peas and OMG - unbelievably delicious! The vegan chili and chips was equally perfect! The music and atmosphere is everything we were looking for after a chilly December hike. This pub does not disappoint!

Rating: 4.5 (2652) Price Level:
A lovely restaurant with a bar and different combinations of seating type allows you to experience a different type of cosy get-together around the table. There is an upstairs area that I did not see and will try this area upon my return sometime. The food was of very good quality and was nicely presented on the plate. The service was very quick and politely done, and orders were dealt with very well by our waiter. The atmosphere was nice, and the decor a little bit off the wall, sort of industrial, i would say? I was disappointed when I ordered a drink with Brandy in it and was surprised they didn't stock it and had to settle for a whisky instead. I do have to say the bottled IPA was absolutely delicious and had a lovely hoppy, fruity tang to it, which went great with my beef burger! Outside seating available for fine weather conditions on the street, the pavemented side looks great at the entrance. There are toilets available in this establishment. Overall, it was a good evening out and a very nice experience in the restaurant in the Canterbury town centre.

It is a nice restaurant, I had the Christmas cracker burger with a beautiful fruit chutney and a lovely truffle jam in a bun with a fat juicy burger. It was delicious, service was decent and the waitress was lovely. Okay ish prices, definitely cheaper in spoons but it is better food here.

Amazing, lovely meal. Highly recomend the veggie platter, really tasty food and plenty for two people. All the staff were super friendly, especially our server Tasha who was very attentive. We will be back!

Food was great. However the staff wasn’t very positive when seating us, and didn’t tell us till after we had eaten that they had an all you can eat pancake offer on that day. So we had finished our dish then was told. And felt we had to grab the offer while we was there as they was unsure if the offer was staying. But glad I didn’t pay for the pancakes full price, they was dry and chewy. The main meal we had was amazing!!! Couldn’t fault that. But the staff need to be more attentive and explain more. The down stairs toilet didn’t work so had to go upstairs it’s great they had two but also an inconvenience for people with a disability.
