The steak pie was pretty good, especially the flaky puff pastry lid. We enjoyed it enough to return for lunch the next day.

A nice little stop on the coast road. The bacon sandwich was tasty and the tea was just right. The chairs were comfy, which was a plus.

Stopped in for a drink, the live jazz was really good. Had the house champagne, it was nice. The place feels cozy and authentic. Just a chilled spot for an evening out.

Lovely little spot, the owner was so friendly! He even played a few songs on the guitar while we waited. Made the whole thing feel really cosy and personal. The food was nice too, but that little moment was the highlight for me.

The staff are so friendly, they even took the time to chat about the wine list. Felt like a proper welcome.

The cod and chips were cooked just right, a proper portion too. Service was quick, which I always appreciate. My only small note is the seating could be a bit more comfortable for a longer visit.

A proper cuppa with a slice of their homemade lemon drizzle cake. The owner mentioned it&#39;s her grandmother&#39;s recipe. That kind of personal touch, paired with a decent tea selection, makes for a very relaxed afternoon. The cake was spot on, not too sweet.

The Christmas platter had good variety - curry goat, fritters, lobster. Solid value for the price.

A nice little spot on the pier for a quick bite. The fish and chips were perfectly crispy, and the staff were really friendly. My only note is that the stools are a bit high and not the most comfortable for a longer sit.

Popped in for a flapjack. The place has this old-school charm, really cosy. Staff were nice, chatty. Pancake was spot on, not too sweet. Just a solid, simple stop.

The pie nights are a highlight, but do call ahead as they&#39;re not always on. The ingredients taste wonderfully fresh.

The set meal for two was huge, we ended up with doggy bags. The house red was a solid, easy-drinking choice that paired well with the hearty portions.

Stopped in for a coffee. The space is lovely - really liked the high ceilings and the big windows, makes it feel so light and airy. Staff were friendly too. A nice spot to just sit for a bit.

Carousel now, but the fish is still spot on. Juicy, cooked just right. Cash only, but there&#39;s an ATM close by. Simple and reliable for a quick business lunch.

Payday treat spot for me! The staff are so lovely and friendly, they really make you feel welcome. That&#39;s what keeps me coming back. The decor is beautiful too, but it&#39;s the people that make it special.

They had a separate gluten-free menu and seemed really careful about cross-contamination. Felt safe ordering, which is a relief when you have to watch what you eat.

The tiramisu was pretty good, and I liked the grissini with the flavoured oils. It&#39;s a decent spot for a simple Italian meal. The pizza was fine, but those starters were the highlight for me.

Been coming here for years, and the chef still pops out to say hello. That personal touch keeps me coming back. The steak&#39;s always spot on - tender, juicy, and full of flavour. It&#39;s just consistent.

Graduation dinner here was lovely! The staff signed a card for us, which was such a sweet surprise. Food was great, especially the truffle pasta. A really nice spot for a group celebration.

Came for Sunday lunch. The roast was good, but the real star was the cornfed chicken with cauliflower cheese. The portion was huge, easily enough for two people. We ended up sharing it and still had leftovers. Sticky toffee pudding was decent too.

The sharing platter was a good size for the price. The seats were comfortable, which made the meal quite relaxing.

Popped in for the carvery lunch. The roast beef was so tender, and the gravy was proper. Got a massive plateful for under a tenner, which is a steal these days. Staff were really friendly too.

Lovely spot tucked away in Canterbury. The seats were really comfortable, which made it a relaxing place to settle in for a bit. Just what you need for a quiet drink.

Nice spot for a casual dinner. The vibe was chill, not too loud. We just walked in and got a table by the window. Food was decent, nothing crazy. Good for what it is.

Kristina and the team are so lovely, really made our girls&#39; night feel special. We tried the new sausage roll and beef croquette - both were spot on. Perfect for catching up with friends, the service was just right.

Came here for a long-overdue catch-up with mates. The pigs in blankets were spot on &ndash; proper sausage, good crispy bacon. Just what you want on a cold evening. The place had a nice, relaxed buzz to it.
