1. Pieno Lleno

£11Latin American

TheForkUserThe food was delicious and the staff provided great service. We were not keen on the new sections where we were sat. It is too high and you feel too shut off from the rest of the restaurant.

2. Buenos Aires Nights Steakhouse - Maidstone

£37Reservation AvailableLatin AmericanOpen Late

TheForkUserThis is the third time of coming here for a special occasion and it never fails. The best steak we have ever eaten. Service attentive by polite friendly staff.

3. Old Gate Inn

£27Reservation AvailableBars/BistrosOpen Late

358***33The Old Door Bar is located on New Dover Road in Canterbury. It is a relatively large bar that is open until late every night. In fact, in addition to being a bar, it is also a Western barbecue restaurant, which is very lively even during the day. The barbecue here is highly recommended, with fresh ingredients, a wide variety, reasonable prices, and thoughtful service. It is very pleasant to eat barbecue and drink beer here.

4. Thorpe Bay

£7Reservation AvailableWestern-style

TheForkUserIt was my Grandson's First Birthday - we had been eating sausage Rolls and sandwiches all day but by the evening needed a proper meal !! We read reviews and it sounded good so we gave it a try. We are not local so it was our first time. We have been to various carveries before but I have to say your food was the best I had eaten at this type of Restaurant. All the meat was tender and moist and the roast potatoes in beef fat were the best ever. In fact all the vegetables were lovely. we agreed that on our next visit to Southend we would take my daughter, her husband and our Grandson for a treat. The atmosphere was cosy and the staff were all friendly and helpful.In particular our waitress Mandy was really friendly and funny. It really made a difference to our visit. we will recommend and be back next time we are in the area.

TheForkUserA gem hidden in plain sight! The cosy atmosphere and gentle buzz as the lunctime service grew. Clearly there were many regular customers making for a friendly atmosphere. We ordered Cozze marinara and and a prawn and avocado salad. Both genreous and excellent. Our pasta mains were cooked to perfection (again, generous proportions. Staff were atentive and we did not feel rushed. Very good house rose Pino Grigio. Heartally recommend this well-established and authentic restaurant.

7. Toby Carvery Southend

13. The Lobster Shack

£19SeafoodViewOpen Late

juki235This is a very large indoor lobster farm. The lobsters raised here are beyond our imagination. All the lobsters are raised in plastic baskets. They are very large and taste almost the same as wild lobsters, but the price is much cheaper. After seeing this, I wonder if the lobsters we usually eat are raised like this. It's really incredible.

16. Tiny Tim's Tearoom

£8Coffee Shops

虎崽的大哥📖Route: Start from London Bridge. Today, there are many delays due to the train block, but the basic route is to take the southeast line to Ashford international. After arriving at the station, remember to take the bus to Cantebury West. The bus will take about half an hour. The journey takes about 2.5 hours, so be sure to relax and slow down. ✅Must-visit attractions: I chose to waste half a day here because the first lesson of English literature in my undergraduate studies was Chaucer's Cantebury Tales, which seemed to take me back to the university classroom nearly 20 years ago. This is a fairy-tale medieval town. Even without any background, there are relaxing points at every step. You can order a cup of coffee at a cafe to relax, stop at some interesting souvenir shops, take some back if you can, and find a bench directly to gradually slow down your irritable heart in a slightly cold but artistic environment. 🍜Must-eat food: I recommend a small shop called Tiny Tims Tearoom. Order a British afternoon tea and spend some time listening to piano playing. It is good enough to taste it by yourself without letting your phone eat first. For Chinese people, there is a supermarket near the station at the entrance of the castle, which has many Asian delicacies (many kinds of instant noodles! Definitely satisfy you!) 🏠Accommodation recommendation: Since we came from the city of London, we did not have accommodation, but we saw Hilton by Hampton, so the basic quality should be guaranteed. ✏️Practical Tips: It is affordable to buy tickets with Trainpal. If you have plenty of time and like to walk around freely, don't join a group! It is convenient and saves money to come by yourself! #European Town Exploration #Canterbury, UK
