The best restaurants in Ashford South East

Really good clean and organised wetherspoons pub. We attended on New Years eve and the food was perfectly cooked and delivered in quick time especially considering the time of year, drink was cheap and served in good time. All in all a really good meal

I live not far away but never been before. Friend suggested it so why not? As we weren’t terribly hungry we chose quite simple basic meals, and were both happy with our food. Ive now found another venue to visit for a bite to eat and will definitely return.

10 of us pre booked our annual Christmas get together here. I emailed over the list of people’s choices to give them a heads up. The waiter was very good going through the list and everyone got what they ordered. I ordered Prawn cocktail but as I was previously a chef I know how things are prepared. The prawns were very small and completely tasteless as they were defrosted by running under cold water, not strained properly so when served in the dish there was water at the bottom. Bread roll provided but no butter. Now we come to the Christmas dinner Turkey covered in gravy, 1 very small pigs in blanket, 1 Yorkshire pudding, 1 stuffing ball, pre frozen roast potatoes, dried up peas and burnt carrots. All played and brought to the table…. Cold. Sent it back and received another that was warm but not hot. Well over a hour later along came pudding but you can’t really go wrong with them so no complaints there. We left after finishing, paid the bill, tipped the waiter as the restaurant closed. I was thoroughly disappointed with the food and wished we had chosen just off the normal menu. If I was paying the Christmas Day prices and was served what we had tonight I would be very worried. Such a shame that chefs, cooks or whatever they want to be called can’t take pride in the work.

Sadly when we arrived the first thing we were given was a list of what was not now on the menu. The list was extensive but we decided to stay as we were there now. We ended up choosing pizzas as most of the menu was off. I have to say I’ve eaten better pizzas from the supermarkets. I can understand why the place was empty. Sad as it looks like it could be a lot nicer

We went for lunch and sat in a cosy room - one of several scattered around the pub. As it was a Sunday I had to have the roast. This was the only pub from the Picked Egg group that we hadn't visited and we weren't disappointed upon completed the set. The front terrace looks inviting for a warm summer's day too.

The grounds are stunning. The manor house impressive. Staff fantastic. The Manor - restaurant was great service but VERY expensive. The mains are £28 - £32 each and does not include the potatos or veg. The mains are tiny portions. The potatos £6 for a side dish

Despite being exceptionally busy, the service was excellent. Nat was excellent, friendly and helpful, despite being rushed off his feet!

First time visit to the pub , amazing warm greeting by the staff , showed to our table , all the waiting staff were super friendly and helpful. Roast dinners were fantastic, choice of beef, chicken , pork and all with home made Yorkshire puddings and selection of vegetables. Generous portions and everyone was happy with the food. Great pub with fire and a buzz of locals and tourists, exactly how a English pub should be , would return 100%

Absolutely awful Waited over 2 hours for food to be delivered and stone cold Rang twice and staff were rude Never ever again !

Such a lovely place, atmosphere, the food is fantastic and the staff are very friendly and can't do enough for you. Great service. A family favourite

On the evening of 31 July I visited Marinos fish and chip shop and purchased a large Huss, large cod and a small portion of chips to take away.Having used Marinos many times before my wife and I were looking forward to our supper as the quality has always been excellent. We were sorely disappointed. Both portions of fish were extremely overcooked - the fish was hard and the batter brittle. The chips were even worse, they had obviously been cooked a long time previously and weren’t at all crisp as normal. A dreadful meal, nowhere near worth £22. We have always enjoyed Marinos food but in future we will try elsewhere.

Please do not eat here . It’s filthy and disgusting. Bad service you wont even get your food like me . Went down and the dirty scum bags has food all over the floor and rat droppings

Visited for lunch mid week; the place was fairly quiet, choice of tables inside or out. Friendly staff, tasty food, although it did take a little while to arrive

Afternoon tea was lush! Couldn’t fault it service was great plenty of sweet and savoury cakes and nibbles. Fairly priced nice atmosphere!

Indulgence at its finest! This dessert haven is a must-visit for anyone with a sweet tooth. Impeccably crafted treats, cozy ambiance, and speedy service makes every visit to this place a delightful experience. Treat yourself and thank me later!
