"we visited last year and had a wonderful experience with inexpensive, tasty eating. I brought the whole family back for my 4 year old birthday meal over the august bank holidays weekend. the prices were almost doubled and the food was at best moderate. The...£20 lobster mac n cheese had changed from a large part of the Gooey delicacies to a £31.50 child size part of the Bland cheese sauce. over the half of the muddles were still closed and the bbq was dry. the part of the child was hardly big enough to feed a 2 year old. worse was the service. I guess it was a busy weekend and they were fully booked, but we felt like we were an inconvenience there. we were harassed when we had set ourselves for our order and even when we had asked for a few minutes to find my 93-year-old grandmother her glasses and read the menu, we were harassed after about 45 seconds. the tellers were taken away in the second time that we put the cutlery down, regardless of all eating. my 4 years old was even told by a waitress in a west top, they need to eat faster charlie, it is a bank holiday they knew they quickly disserted his, but it was good 20 minutes before someone asked the rest of the table whether we wanted coffee or dessert (of which we felt so comfortable that we wanted to get out). very disappointing visit I will not make again. really remained so much money for average food and terrible service to pay."

Amazing place for food but definitely worth visiting for a cocktail. The owner went out of his way to make different cocktails not on the menu based on my palet. Outstanding service View menu

Another amazing meal at this gem of a place. The staff are friendly and the food is amazing. If you like ribs then thel full rack is enormous and as for the beef rib... this is never from a cow, more like a triceratops rib....Have booked a table once a month for the next 6 months

The meal was alright and the service was excellent, but it was quite pricey. The ribs were £17 and then there were additional charges for chips and coleslaw, bringing the total to around £23.50. I have never had a meal outdoors where the dining experience was individual. It was a bit strange and expensive.

We came here for a spontaneous meal on our anniversary and it was fantastic. We sat at the bar and enjoyed delicious cocktails that the owner recommended. The service was excellent and we had a wonderful evening. The restaurant has a quaint and cozy atmosphere. The ribs were so tender and flavorful. The cocktails were exceptional and really topped off our dining experience. I highly recommend this place and would rate it a solid 9/10. View menu

Upon our arrival, we were welcomed warmly and made to feel like family by the friendly staff. The experience only improved when my wife, who does not drink due to health issues, was offered non-alcoholic options for cocktails. The menu offered a diverse selection that we couldn't resist trying. I ordered the lobster bisque, which was generously portioned and delicious. My wife had the soft shell crab burger, which was amazing. We both wished we lived closer so we could become regulars at this restaurant. I highly recommend it.

Oh dear, it’s such a shame the food was so terrible as the staff were lovely and made us feel very welcome! The menu is strange as it’s price by the meat, rather than the whole dish. You choose the meat then add the sides...(like chips, jacket potato, vegetables etc) at an additional charge. I ordered the combo, with cheesy chips as the ‘side’ to complete the dish. Unfortunately the pulled pork was dry and flavourless without any sauce. The chicken was CREMATED beyond recognition….I thought it had BBQ sauce on top, but no, it was charcoaled skin! It had clearly been fried to death, then grilled to beyond burnt!! The BBQ ribs were nice but didn’t come with BBQ sauce!! The cheesy chips had a s...

"After never visiting Canterbury before we where looking for somewhere to have a late lunch, we came across this place which looked ok, upon entering the back room we were offered to take a seat in the front area and someone will be with us. We asked what food there was and we where sarcastically shown the food on the blackboard, after choosing what we wanted the polite man went off and put the order in. We did feel that because the man had asked a couple of questions to another member of staff that he was spoke down too a bit. Anyway after placing the order and what we wanted the food came out it wasn’t correct but because it seemed like we were going to interrupt the people in the back room we just took what we had. It was nice food though. When we went to pay we hadn’t noticed that there wasn’t a price list so when we asked for the bill we were told that it was donation, what we thought was enough, it wasn’t posted anywhere and it took us by surprise as we where standing at the till, I was going to pay in cash but was told they don’t take cash so I had to give my donation in card by telling the person how much we where donating. After plucking a figure out of air as we wasn’t prepared we paid and left. Upon leaving we felt that the person we paid thought we hadn’t paid enough and wasn’t happy with the amount but after working out what we would have paid properly we worked out that we had paid more than what it might have been if there was a proper price on everything. Overall it has a great ethos and it’s great for giving people the experience that they need to be in a working environment but they need to show the price or tell customers first that it’s donations and card only."
