We just arrived from a cruise trip, while visiting Dover Castle we were looking for a great stop…read morefor lunch. This place is fantastic, easy walk from Dover Castle and just so happens to be Dovers oldest pub. The menu for lunch is small, feels like it's because they want to do things right. The fish and chips- highly recommend. However unless you are starving I recommend you split it with a friend. When we arrived we were immediately greeted, service was excellent. For families like us, they do have high chairs. They will take your order if you sit inside. There's also an outdoor garden however you need to come to the counter to order. Same with drinks. Each room has a lot of history. Take one look around and there's a lot going on. Apparently this location used to be a part of monastery and has evolved over the years now to a great pub. Each dish we enjoyed, the vegetarian linguine was fresh, chips were delicious and the fish was wonderful. If you're cruising in and need a place for a good meal not too far from the port or to Dover Castle- I recommend you swing on in. Highly casual so you can come as is or for special occasion.

The good luck restaurant has been in dover for many years and is still a popular eating place for…read morelocals. There is always a friendly welcome from the staff who can not do enough to make sure your visit is enjoyable. The prices are very reasonable and the food is always first class. We have eaten there on many occasions over the years and have never had a bad experience. The sweet and sour sauce is to die for, and some locals actually ask for extra containers of the sauce to take home with them and some freeze them for when they want to use them. This restaurant also offers a take away service as well, and the food also meets the same high standard as their in house dishes. The good luck is an enjoyable experience for all the family with traditional Chinese dishes as well as more english dishes also catered for on the menu.

Te owner and his waitstaff are keen, hardworking people who want to accommodate every customer. I showed up without a reservation at opening time, and they were very willing to 'squeeze me in' before they got really busy. I am so thankful that they did. My entrée was amazing and the perfect serving size. Also, their wine was superb. I had s nice glass of white that complimented my meal well. If I ever Come back to Dover, I will definitely be visiting La Scala. The atmosphere is amazing and the service is quick and kind. If you plan on coming here after s long day of torquing he sights, make sure you have a reservation. It is a small restaurant, and they are pretty much completely booked after 7:00 on Friday and Saturday night.

Walking in, the decor and signage is very inviting, sleek and cute without being too twee. Inside is very nice, but it was a lovely night and we asked to be seated in the garden. A good call! The garden is not heated, but the high walls shield the tables against wind which is really nice in the summertime. Menu is short and very seasonable, with a tasty and well-edited wine list, most in the 14 - 17 GBP range with the exception of a few special celebratory bottles. Really nice concept. We chose our meals from specials on the chalkboard and were treated to a lovely salad before our mains arrived. My partner had the 21 day aged grilled sirloin, and I had an amazingly tender and flavorful beef in red wine sauce, which paired perfectly with the French red (Chateau de Lancyre Vieilles Vignes) we chose. So nice! We ended the meal with a couple of coffees and a dark chocolate cake, which was absolutely gorgeous. We were assisted by two servers, both of whom could not have been any nicer, more knowledgeable, or professional. Overall a top-notch experience in Dover!

In my opinion the best Chinese in town…read more It has 2 floors and you can tell it is good by how packed it can get on Friday and Saturday nights, with many regulars. Don't be put off by the £13.95 (I think!) all you can eat service. It isn't the usual help yourself buffet spooning food that has spent hours in chafing dishes. Instead, you order from an extensive a la carte menu, all the usual dishes you would expect in a Chinese plus some specials. I particularly like the sizzling dish Steak in a pungent sauce. Wonderful description and food! The food is high quality and freshly cooked to order. Clean linen tablecloths, chopsticks and bowls supplied if requested. Service is friendly and informal. Wash the food down with their wonderfully dark Syrah Rosé. I'm sure London has better Chinese restaurants but I haven't been to a better one in this price range in Kent yet.

We're only here for a day and don't know when we'll be back in the UK, but we will certainly recommend this restaurant to friends and family!

The table next to us ordered beef stew, chicken hunter, and a cottage pie and said it was all delicious (we thought it looked pretty good too). Overall, a nice dinner out.
