"We had stayed at a near by boutique hotel and was told that certain restaurants give 10% discount off the bill which is why we chose here. The food was great and the service was relaxed. The discount was £8.52 and the ADDED service charge was also £8.52!! May be circumstantial but I feel as if I was taken for a fool aren't staff at at restaurants supposed to serve the meals to the table and the tip as I know it as, should be discretionary. They'll be charging for the hot water to wash the crockery next or for the toilet paper. I wish we'd gone somewhere else where there is no underhanded deception. I don't know if the owner of the boutique hotel is aware that there isn't actually a discount but if it was me, I wouldn't be comfortable with letting people think there was. Won't get taken advantage of again and won't be going to any of the Everest Restaurant again. Once bitten, I vote with my feet spoilt for choice for places to eat in Hythe. Nobody likes to be taken for granted so I won't be investing and I'm out!!!"
