The best restaurants in Ashford South East

Great food and great service would recommend

We recently celebrated our wedding anniversary with a meal here. The service was exemplary, and the food was simply stunning.

It's pretty good but usually have to queue

Said the kitchen was shut when it wasn’t it shuts at 8pm and we got here at 7pm and the head chef was playing pool not working we also had a meal voucher to use as it expires soon aswell also one of the bar staff laughed when my fiance put in her glasses to look at menu and said kitchen is closed

Popped in for lunch without a reservation which was no problem at all, we had our dog with us and he was welcomed too. We were sat by a lovely wood burner and both ordered the fajitas which were lovely. We were served by Clara who was really attentive, even offered water for the dog. The menu is smokehouse so something different, really sweet outdoor space as well. Would really recommend a visit to this pub!

They gave me raw milk for a cup of tea and I have milk alternatives. Regular thing of getting the type of milk I have wrong. The service has been going downhill for years and so has the clientele. The food is still adequate.

Had a meal here on Thursday evening. Staff were attentive and friendly and the food was probably the best pub food I’ve ever had. Freshly cooked and arrived in good time. Would 100% recommend. Decor looks like the pub is being renovated and looks like it’ll be great for summer

Had a fabulous meal and everyone is so friendly

We're regulars never had a bad meal from here over the weekend they accidentally missed something off our order rectified straight away no problems really grateful its the 1st mishap we've ever had and they couldn't have been more sorry great food, great staff and clean kitchen what more could you want ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Very nice experience. Food was good and we had a lovely, attentive and professional server Ben.

Had this delicious meal at Amy’s today. My sister had the bagel with and I had the seasonal toast with bacon and poached eggs. The chef made this gluten free for me and it was very tasty. I have eaten many many times at this lovely establishment and as a coeliac have always been catered for very well. Can’t praise the food enough. The staff are always so welcoming and attentive. Try it you won’t be disappointed.

Having booked the Christmas lunch for £120 per head we were expecting a festive feast fit for a king and queen! What we were presented with was certainly far from that. The bucks fizz on arrival was tasteless and a very strange opaque colour. However, we thought let's get a nice glass of wine. The wine was awful and came up in the cheapest glasses. Now for the starters. The soup was tasteless slop and came with butter thrown on a plate (cheap portion wrapped butter usually found at the local cafe). Scallops were edible to be magnanimous. Next came the main event... well the plates for the turkey were no bigger than side plates, the food piled high. Roast potatoes were like iron and brussels tasteless. The turkey came with a slither of stuffing and the side plate of vegetables was meagre and served with no imagination not even a parsnip in sight. Cheapest vegetables used. The beef was not roast beef as you would know it, it was a slab of what tasted like reconstituted meat. Very poor presentation for a special meal. Water glasses came up and were plastic! Never had that in any restaurant. Desserts were OK but again presentation left alot to be desired. The ladies serving were a real pleasure though and probably if honest saved the experience we encountered. For what was a very expensive Christmas treat (we normally eat at home) it is certainly one we felt was very poor. The presentation, food quality and breadth of choice was inadequate. Money for old rope! Really the management whom never made themselves known should be ashamed of the overpriced con this was. I would imagine many felt the same as we did witness people complaining at other tables and asking for refunds. We would never return and will be telling anyone who will listen how dreadful this experience was! Poor show Farriers Arms you did it all on the cheap and it showed.

Ordered Saag Paneer and not even 1 small paneer in it. Not even 1. What's the point of calling it Saag PANEER?

Amazing food Amazing ambience and some Amazing staff especially Samantha Lee

I am a single woman traveling alone, in charming Tenterden for the first time. I attended the beautiful fair there one Spring morning and finished up at the Lemon Tree as it looked...and is....very old/historic. I was promptly seated, ordered fish and chips. The serving was enormous and delicious. The waiter was very attentive. I think the negative comments are from people who are themselves rude/demanding, and think only of themselves. The service industry is heavy with patients/public who never think beyond what they want, and when (NOW). I had a lovely time and was treated like a queen in a wonderful 14th century environment. A most memorable experience. I plan to return to the area soon and repeat the experience. Mary Ann Bumgarner, RN, Greenville, South Carolina.
