"When I initially booked a table at The Parade Room I mentioned that I had a Shellfish allergy. A prompt return email asked if I had any other dietary needs and when I explained that I had problems with many foods due to acid reflux digestive problems the chef prepared a menu for me that took into account all of my needs. I was so impressed that he took the time to research a perfect two course lunch just for me including low fat and no dairy. The mackerel and lentils dish followed by a perfectly smooth soya ice cream were both delicious and just what I needed to eat so that I didn’t feel unwell after eating any meal as I often do. My husband and son both really also enjoyed their roast dinners with the bread sauce being the best my son had ever eaten and the marmite hollandaise sauce with the beef for my husband another highlight. Shaun who served us was so knowledgeable about every dish and was clearly a genuine foodie and so enthusiastic about the menu. I would definitely recommend eating here. It’s shame that we don’t live in Canterbury but we would definitely make a return visit to The Parade Room the next time we visit this city."

Very good food, served by very friendly staff. A real atmosphere too the old Police station at one end of the main street.

The service, food, and setting at this restaurant are exceptional, and the prices are very reasonable. The table is beautifully set, and they even include delicious breads for free.

We had a fantastic Christmas meal on Saturday 7th December. Food and service was first class and a massive thank you to Dan who accommodated the extra numbers in our group. Highly recommended.

We as a group headed upstairs here after some good mental exercise in the Escape Rooms. The cocktail list (already fabulous) is apparently being further extended. I can recommend the Mai Tai, but others ordered were also very good.Food is good quality, I especially recommend the Pork Sausages Mash in gravy. View menu

I was fortunate enough to try the steak at this restaurant, and I can say that I thoroughly enjoyed it. Unfortunately, my companions opted for the sausage and mash, which was nothing to write home about. However, when two of us decided to share the cheeseboard at £12 each, we were sorely disappointed. It was of very poor quality. I would not recommend this restaurant, as it was quite expensive for the subpar quality of food. I will not be returning in the future.

For my meal, I had the crispy chicken burger on a brioche bun with slaw, lettuce, and fries. The chipotle and lime mayonnaise had a bit of a kick, but they were happy to serve it on the side for me. The burger was delicious and the fries were excellent. I considered trying dessert, but the burger was satisfying enough. The restaurant is located in the former Canterbury jail and Police station, which I found fascinating. I only had time to explore the bathroom, which used to be holding cells, but my friend mentioned there are other rooms and original features to see. I will definitely be back to try more dishes from the menu, as the food was very tasty.

We booked a valentines lunch here as my wife had been here before with her friend one evening and recommended it. I'm so glad we booked this as the food was amazing from the bread and nibbles right through to the desert. On top of that the staff there were brilliant and very polite and great with information and details My wife has an allergy to cream and they worked with the chef to ensure everything was OK and also he changed some of the dishes to suit her needs. The chicken and steak main courses were lovely and the chefs special marmite cream on home made cheese shortbreads was amazing. All in all a great lunch with great atmosphere amazing food and friendly staff. Will be going back. View menu

Saturday evening, taking our son and daughter-in-law we dined at The parade room, when looking at the menu they were not sure if they liked what was on offer, we encouraged them not to be put off by the unusual stile of food offered, we all chose a starter, and without exception they all tasted amazing. And again we were over the moon with our choice of aim dish we all had something different everything tasting out of this world. Even the puddings were different. It’s nice to find a place that’s not run of the mill. We particularly liked the complementary plate of breads to start the meal off.Staff outstanding the surroundings unusual and fascinating as it’s set in Canterbury’s Victorian jai...

This wondrously exquisite gem is located at the bottom of the highstreet. A little further down from the continuos chains on the highstreet, a three course meal that is rich in local Kent Produce, imagination and quality all for £27! Michelin quality without the pretentious snobbery, relaxed and very knowledgeable staff, Lauren Dan made every effort to accomodate us and our cohorts. The atmosphere was a little lax but it was early on and im sure it would pick up, it was nice being able to hear eachother though. The decor is original and classy without being pretentious.Now down to the meal itself...Might i just say that Its wonderful to see a menu at christmas time that isnt overly festive!...

"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."
