TheForkUserWe had booked for a family lunch, my partner is disabled and uses a scooter. The staff accommodated us beautifully and we wanted for nothing. Even offered to carry the second plate for me as I collected his meal. A little disappointed that so.e of the desserts were off the menu but it was immediately after Christmas. We will book for our family gatherings again.

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.

12. 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

13. The Lobster Shack

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.

TheForkUserSuch a little gem. I felt like we'd walked in to where the Thursday Murder Club was set (Richard Osman's novel in case you were wondering). Sandwiches were delicious - variety of flavours and very fresh. Not sure if the scones were homemade but they were lovely with very tasty jam and generous clotted cream.

乖乖·SUK | Real beauty without filters I drove from London to Canterbury and the White Cliffs of Dover. It didn’t take long. It took 2 hours to drive from the most central block to London’s back garden, which is the oil painting town in Figures 1-6. Because there was a strong wind warning that day, the boats on the lake were also suspended. Otherwise, you can enjoy more beautiful scenery along the river! Navigate to Westgate Garden | Westgate Garden Dover White Cliffs Because I arrived late, and the arrogant strong wind blew me down, I only walked a short distance. It only takes half an hour to drive from Canterbury! The bus also takes about the same time. Friends, don’t miss this beautiful oil painting town when you go to the UK from May to August! Finally, I share a Turkish restaurant next to Westgate Garden. It’s super delicious. The last two pictures #UK Travel #UK Oil Painting Town #UK Canterbury #London Back Garden
