My sister in law booked a table for 4. She paid £20 deposit. All appeared OK on arriving. My husband and myself ordered coffee before the other two arrived and paid for them, stupidly did not ask for a receipt. The table had been laid up for festive meal, for which sister in law didn't ask for. We ordered our meals and paid on two separate bills. The tills were plsying up and my husbznd paid by cash, the others paid by card. We had senior deals. Other people came in sometime after us and got served their meal before us. I think ours had been left on the side as soup was only lukewarm and chicken gourgons were almost cold. Then when main meal arrived, we all had hunters chicken which was again not the quality we had experienced. The saga continued with the food, not as good as usual. Then sisterinlaw asked her husband did he get the £20 deposit back, he went and got it sorted out. Then we queried the amount that he paid extra, they said it was for the coffees that my husband got us on arrival, we accepted it at the time due to the tills playing up. Only to check at bank today to find out our payment for coffees had been paid by us, plus by brother in law. Will not go to this pub again, understaffed totally, needs a good overhaul. Always get a receipt when purchasing food and drinks

This is a Christmas day review, thus the higher price tag. First off the price per adult was just over £50, which was one of cheapest Christmas day meals. We were a little apprehensive due to the budget price but the wheatsheaf came through. The staff showed us to our seats straight away, enroute we could see the restaurant was clean and reasonably well decorated for the season. We had time to get a drink before the starter arrived. All the starters were plentiful and of a standard. The staff gave us a fair time between course's with the mains being as the starters, plentiful and without issue and yes the puddings were no different. Overall it all worked, nobody had any issues with the pub. The staff worked really hard without client issues. They were polite, cheerie and professional. The food was generous and of a standard that kept everyone happy. The atmosphere was also quite warm and jolly. It's not Ivy but it doesn't pretend to be and you definitely don't pay for it. So Christmas day meal on budget, a no brainer, great choice. It probably works if your budget is a bit bigger as you could spend more and not really get a better result. Ps. On the run up to Xmas Greenking wanted full payment in November but we were unable to pay on a card as they had an I.T issue, so we paid on the day. This was a head office issue but the pub had to face the customer, which they handled well. PPS Greenking on the run up to Xmas offer gift cards that give you extra cash when you buy them. For example buy £120 get £150 (£30 free) and they can be used on Christmas day!

We came here on Sunday the 1st December for lunch . Myself and my partner both had the mixed grill . Kudos to the chef for cooking me the most amazing well done steak . It was tender ,juicy and cooked to perfection. I rarely find a chef who knows how to cook steak well done, without turning it into shoe leather or just burning it . The Oyster bed could do well to learn from the chef at the Wheatsheaf as last time we ate there they annihilated my steak . My partner likes his steak rare and was equally as happy with it. The Wheatsheaf is a friendly pub ,where nothing is too much trouble for their customers. Second time we have eaten here and will return again on our next holiday. 10/10

Visit date: 4th March 2024 Weird small interior. Friendly staff but inattentive to tables. Employ waiting staff please. Some staff walked away while I was talking to them so they only heard part of what I said. Assumptions made about ice with regards to my drink order. This meant I had to go to the bar to get it corrected which means having to wait for staff to be available. I didn't go initially because I could see there's no staff at that particular section of the bar and had to drink my Coca Cola without ice. £2.95 for a small bottle of coke and the fridge clearly isn't even kept cold enough. Drink wasn't cold enough and needed ice. Tiny glass given for tap water. No jugs of water. Chicken lime tacos were pretty bad. Not much chicken, gross tortilla, clearly very cheap quality ones, and just overall bad. I think it was £6. Go to Wahaca or El Pastor in London for amazing tacos. A similarish price as at this pub. Katsu curry had way too much salt. Tasted like a jar bought curry. Tons of chips on the plate. Not much rice. Dissapointed. No receipt given. Staff didn't even ask if I want a receipt. So I don't have a photo of the receipt. No photos of food because my phone was low battery, staff kindly charged it for me behind the counter while I ate. No super Fast charging sadly so a full charge takes 3 hours. Go to London to eat good food. Kent has very few good places to eat out. This pub has pretty terrible food.

We went on a Thursday evening and waited around 30 minutes for food, we had to sit outside because of our dog and asked for the heating to be put on multiple times. It was finally put on once we’d finished our meals. Food was almost inedible and service was slow, the manager told us this was because they were low staffed.

We went to get food for a birthday celebration and it was a shambles from the beginning! Walk through the door and there’s no sign of organisation staff seemed very distracted by the locals! Taken to our table and just left there was local children literally running all over the place playing hide and seek in the restaurant with no care for those eating meals ect. Staff did nothing about the matter and then we saw the children and the locals going into the kitchen and behind the bar! And the staff just let them do it!! Food could have been better salad felt like it had been sat cut up for days and the chicken was very dry on both dishes. Overall not a very happy visit today and will not be returning anytime soon!

16/3/23 2 x Fish and chips for £10.99 very nice and good value.The pub is very ready for a refurb. 8/6/23 No fish and chips again. This is a recurring problem. They were month's without a fish frier before the financial year change. Not good. 2 meals for £10.99 not bad though. 7.9.23 Once again the fish frier is out of action. Its only lasted a few months. But they have a notice up saying refurb coming soon. Not before time. The frier is out of bounds till the refurb is complete. Two for £11.49, gone up 50p. Still not bad. 18/4/24. Recently refurbed and back under its proper name The Wheatsheaf, nicely done. Light lunches now 2 for £14.99, 'but' because that offer is a discount meal, I'm not allowed to use my Defence Discount offer. Wether I'm having a full price meal, or a discounted one, I'm still a Veteran and should be afforded the extra discount. Not happy. 20/6/24 Light lunches again. The chicken Shawarma ( guess spelling) is very nice, even if the bread base is a bit tough. Steak knife provided to carve it. Still no Defence Discount. Made an earnest complaint about it. 10/10/24 Doesn't open till 12, winter opening hours. I had Scampi and chips. 9 v small pieces of Scampi, but tasted okay. Chips nice and crispy. Husband had Gammon, no moans or complaints, so must have been okay. The photos are of the "Ladies Room".

The Wheatsheaf has been transformed into a welcoming family pub, we went there last night with our dog for dinner and was welcomed from the moment we entered. The restaurant was clean and bright. The Thursday steak deal is excellent and the steak was tender with a good portion of chips. The prices are excellent for the area. Andrew the manager was day off but took the trouble to welcome us, all of the staff were attentive and friendly. We look forward to coming back.

Pub was empty at 5pm on a Friday night but still had to wait over 30 mins for food. 3 of us had the Hunters chicken very nice but only about 6 chips so we were all left still hungry. Overall very disappointing. Obviously not enough staff employed as outside tables were never cleared of dishes & glasses. Used to be a favourite of ours but won’t be returning. Returned a week later! Thankfully a much improved experience! Didn't wait long for our food, better portions, which was really good. Tables all cleared, so pleased we gave it another go, think previously they were certainly short staffed.

Arriving to a semi empty restaurant with an hour before we had to get a train we knew we had plenty of time aslong as we ordered simple food,we ordered haloumi fries a kids burger and chips and a cheese and bacon burger. 45minutes after we were still sitting there waiting. As this was getting so close to our train time I went and asked the gent behind the counter to box it and we will take it with us, he said it was ready but I told him I didn't have time now so please can I take it away, he went into the kitchen and wrapped it in Cling film and put it in a plastic box, i said thankyou and explained that a kids burger and a adult burger shouldn't take that long to which he agreed , i didnt ask for a refund as we was still receiving our food just eating on the go we got to the train station on time for the train luckily as it was only a couple of minutes away and my little one was hungry so I opened her burger which was inedible the bun was burnt on the inside and burger was so small and dry she couldn't eat it. The corn wasn't much better. She did manage to eat the 7 chips that was provided for her in her meal so at least she had something. I had ordered the cheese and bacon burger which looked lovely till I took it out the clingfilm and and yet again the bun heavily toasted to black. And I could snap the burgers in half as that was burnt too. After spending £28 (after blue light discount) on essentially on 5-6 bits of haloumi ,7 chips for my little one and a small portion of chips for me and 3 soft drinks I should have just gone to a chip shop. This was the first time returning here after 7+ years. I thought this would be different with change of management and refurbishment but I won't be returning again.

Wow, I last used the restaurant five years ago, it was poor then and even worse now. Tried it as revamped. Shouldn't have bothered, over priced, laughable quantity, poorly cooked food. It wasn't even busy and took 40 minutes or so to arrive. Asked before, was told, on its way as busy! Others were complaining to. Basically, under staffed and not bothered customer service.

Really disappointing. Attended today.with family of 4. Thought it would be nice as we have been many times before. 1st time since it has been re-vamped. Ordered food straight away. Waited over an hour for food to be served. Food arrived luke warm. One meal had pulled pork missing from burger. One dish came without salad. Plates went back to kitchen. Came back out 5 mins later. Had to ask for cutlery as none on table. And no cutlery around to get yourself. Was planning a birthday meal there for a birthday in the summer. Dont think I would think about attending again based on today's visit. No appology for waiting all that time for food to arrive. SHOCKING Service

Staying locally we looked for a restaurant we could visit with our dog for an evening meal in late April. The Wheatsheaf was only a few minutes walk and we arrived to find the pub was less than half full and there was plenty of room inside. We took advantage of the two main courses for £14.99 deal, although had to pay a bit extra as I had fish and chips - still very good value though. We were even able to order a chicken breast for our dog from the canine menu. Service was good and our food arrived quickly. The staff and local customers were friendly and we enjoyed the food, drink and our visit.

Well what can I say other than "Well done" to the Team Greene king (wheatshief) Whitstable "Great Food" "Trendy Decor" an "Amazing Transformation" and "Such super Friendly Courteous Staff" Definitely will be visiting again as soon! Would recommend to Both Couples and Families alike! 🤗 We both had the Bacon and cheese burger which came with Rosemary and Cracked Sea Salt Skin on fries and onions rings! Plus BBQ sauce! Would definitely Recommend "the best burger I've had in a very long time" 😋

Food was warm chicken was dry and hardly any bbq sauce ( we had hunters chicken) my sister sent hers back as there was hardly any sauce. I ate mine as I was hungry but didn’t enjoy it. The menu is very limited unlike previous visits there was a lot more to choose from. There was a couple in the restaurant with a dog which constantly barked at anyone passing by. Not once did they do or say anything to the bloody thing. We left there with headaches. Certainly won’t be going back in a hurry the atmosphere and food has put us off. Don’t understand why dogs are allowed in a restaurant ? I’d avoid this place like the plague now, there are better places to eat.

The Wheatsheaf, we visited the for a birthday meal and a few drinks. This pub has recently been refurbished and looks really nice, staff were really friendly and helpful Now the food is where we were all pleasantly surprised, good pub food of a high standard, pleasing to the eye, Natchos to share as a starter then tasty Stilton burger, wonderful Hunters chicken and beautiful Chicken pie all really tasty. Brownies with clotted cream ice-cream, Eaton mess and fruit crumble with the clotted cream ice-cream. All in all we were very happy and went home with full belly's and we're all looking forward to trying the Sunday roast next time. 5 stars for a proper pub.

Can’t lie. After we booked this meal I read some pretty poor reviews about the place that made me a bit worried. However, have just got home after a really great evening. The service was good; friendly staff and no long waits for the food. The meals were good. In fact the katsu curry was really good! Yes the place was a bit noisy but at least it was busy and had some atmosphere. So we will 100% go again. And soon. Thanks guys.

We had lunch here today with our two dogs. Newly refurbished and very well done. The staff and service was very friendly, lots of meal deals and even a menu for your dogs. Heated outside seating area, smoking area and garden. Will be lovely to visit in the summer. Can't wait to visit again. Thank you.

Why waste a fortune renovating the pub! The tables were dirty, the staff didn’t seem to notice you were waiting for service. The food was poor. The TV’s were so loud you couldn’t speak to people on your own table.

Disgusting food. Arrived and went straight into the bin. China chef in tankerton is the best Chinese in the area. Wing wah was terrible covered in thick grease with zero flavour.

Fantastic little, authentic pub nestled among shops in Canterbury, GB. Loved spotting familiar license plates on the walls and the server was terrifically accommodating offering to snap photos of us. If you're looking for a true British pub experience, this is the perfect spot! The fish and chips were extremely tempting, but opted for Thai that did not disappoint.
