I was raised partly in Italy and this was some of the best Italian food I've had in 15 years of visiting the U.K. since I graduated Uni there. An Italian family own and operate the place and they're hospitality is second only to the food. Absolutely amazing meal, just tell them what you don't like and they'll bring the rest. I wish I could give them more stars. I will share some of the photos from the beautiful evening I spent on the patio. I just wish I had a lover with me to share the experience with.

After a day of exploring Dover Castle and walking through Biggin Street, we decided to dine at this…read more popular and recommended pub. A perfect place to rest and recount our adventures for the day. There were quite a few diners in, and the space seemed a lot larger once inside, with a bar and several rooms to accommodate small and large parties. We were seated near a party of 10! Service was friendly and leisurely, which we welcomed. Only one staff was taking and distributing orders and he advised of the delay in service. The food was delicious and had we more time in town, would likely have dined in again.

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.

They do have adorable signs greeting the dogs and even offering their own dog menu. I do love the fact that they take photos of them and there is hundreds of photos on ceiling of all the dogs that have been inside the bar. A group of us came in for a beer and to just adore the adorable dogs. The staff is so sweet and friendly and I honestly wish I lived locally to come here more often.

Most of the ingredients are locally sourced and the portions are large.The last time I visited I had locally caught Whitstable fish wich was delicious. They do a special 2 course lunch or why not go the whole hog( no pun intended) and visit on a sunday for an excellent roast. They have 3 bedrooms too for B & B. I would advise early booking for the restaurant as even though it is off the beaten track it gets very busy.

The Compasses, Sole Street, Crundale…read more The first thing is to find this remote Kentish pub - because it's well worth finding - especially now that the food it so very good! Here (http://www.thecompassescrundale.co.uk/map.htm ) you will find a map and directions from Canterbury, Ashford and Chartham. If you have a satnav the Postcode is CT4 7ES. Now then, down to the important stuff. If you have never been there or if your last visit was more than 18 months ago (today's date is September 2014) you are in for a real treat. Robert (chef) and Donna (joint tenant) have changed this lovely old pub into a lovely old pub serving VERY fine food in goodly portions! The menu is constantly tweaked but this was the menu when Judi and I visited for lunch bringing our friend Philip and our miniature schnauzer, Bertie (i.e. they're dog-friendly!) Starters: Soup of the day = sweetcorn chowder with Wye Bakery sourdough Sweet pickled herrings with Dijon mustard and Bavarian sourdough Chorizo, Cheddar and tomato gratin Potted smoked mackerel with fennel and apple slaw Crispy rabbit with apple and onion sauce and bacon bits Whipped Stilton tart with walnut crumble Suckling pig with garlic butter beans Mains: Pan fried potato, caramelised onion and leek terrine (veg) Roast cod with beer, bacon, roast onions, mash and greens Lemon sole with herb dumplings roast beetroot and horseradish Corn fed duck breast with mash, greens and wild brambles Free range chicken with braised potato, baby gem and peas Roast rump of lamb with gratin potatoes and damson relish Puddings: Stick toffee pudding with caramelised banana and rum and raisin ice cream Chocolate mousse brownie with cherries Passion fruit crème brûlée Vanilla and raspberry cheesecake There was also a 'snack/light lunch menu for those with a smaller appetite at lunchtime including such delights as treacle-cured bacon, fried duck egg and dripping chips; pulled pork bap with fennel and apple slaw and dripping chips. Cost for two courses each for the three of us plus two bottles of pretty good wine , just over £100. Portions were such that a pudding was beyond us on this occasion so next time we'll try a main and a pudding. The important point is that they do NOT serve bog-standard food and we all enjoyed every morsel. Even Bertie was treated to a couple of low-fat snacks! Parking is ample and there is a large lawned beer-garden with children's play facilities at the rear and a fenced-off terrace at the front. This is a Shepherd Neame house with their usual offerings of good Kentish ales and a large selection of very drinkable wines. This is NOT a restaurant: bar stools await those who enjoy a drink and tables are not just for diners; this is a real pub that simply tempts you to eat!

Having my whole trip being around all these businesses that takes such pride and making it festive, honestly only makes me wanna come back during December. I am from the United States, so it was definitely getting used to having to always go to the bar which never has stools to order your drink and then close out right away. My girlfriend, I ordered some beers and then of course I had to try their chili which looked absolutely amazing on their menu. There's nothing more enjoyable than having a hot meal during colder weather. I very much enjoyed the flavors and texture of the chili. I believe it was sour cream on the side and the rice, which I was adding in. The portion was the right amount and I was definitely full. This place and name does have a fun ambience. This is very chill area and definitely highly recommend stopping in and grabbing a beer. Don't forget to order that chili because it was delicious.
