"We love this place but service can be a little hit and miss if it’s busy, as it was today. Lots of reserved tables but very few staff to service them. We took our two young grandchildren who wanted milk and a piece of toast, our order was a cup of tea. The tea and milk arrived eventually without the toast, but when I asked the person in charge where it was, she said others had ordered food before us ie full meals so it wasn’t yet our turn. A little forward planning by management and some lessons in flexibility wouldn’t go amiss."

This restaurant is in an absolutely stunning location for a sunny autumn pre-wedding breakfast. It is peaceful and the staff has great energy. The food is delicious. I wish I lived closer so I could visit more often. View menu

Phoned for availability and asked to book a table. Told tables available inside and no need to book. On arrival with a baby too, we were told no tables available as reserved. Tried to support local business and just wasted our time.

Nipped in here after visiting the garden centre for a spot of lunch. I opted for apple crumble and ice cream which was absolutely fantastic and was enviously eyed up by my companion over the top of her “very nice” mushroom and pepper frittata. Nice bit of cake for afters. Really enjoyed our visit.

Popped in for coffee and cake and was pleasantly surprised. We had to wait a while because they were short staffed, but the staff were very friendly and apologetic which makes a big difference. The food and drinks were excellent and we would definitely recommend. Coupled with the adjacent garden centre it makes an excellent venue. View menu

A beautiful setting with the green grapes glistening in the background as you sit in the sun for an al fresco brunch. The interior is beautifully decorated too if the weather isn’t as good as it was this morning. The bacon and sausage was juicy, thick cut, quality produce, sourced locally and the eggs were a delight too. Enjoyed the lattes also. Enjoy!

We had a wonderful experience at this restaurant! We decided to check it out today as we were looking for a place to gather with our family after scattering our mom's ashes at the nearby crematorium. Our son, who has Downs Syndrome, would have felt right at home here since the restaurant supports adults with learning disabilities. It was a peaceful and welcoming environment, and they even allowed dogs. The food was reasonably priced and delicious - we will definitely be returning. Keep up the great work!

"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."
