A La Turka Whitstable - (Near Kent, london)

Summer Brown I visited the Seaview Café in Whitstable and had a tuna mayo toastie with chips — absolutely delicious! The toastie was perfectly made, the chips were crisp and tasty, and everything was served piping hot. The staff were so welcoming and friendly, which made the visit even better. And of course, the name says it all — the view over the sea was truly impeccable. Highly recommend for great food, great people, and a beautiful setting!

Mike Daws Friendly and efficient staff. Food was very nice though mine would have been better with a bit more cranberry. Coffe was strong and hot. Would visit again.

Syd Eats Consistently outstanding battered fish. Perfectly cooked, fresh produce and light crunchy batter - every single time. Its a lovely family run restaurant you can always rely on. Choose from large, medium or small cod all priced accordingly. FYI the batter is NOT dairy-free. The chips are very English - more like chunky deep fried potato bits than the sort you get in a restaurant (do not expect the more fries style thick, tripple cooked, processed and way crispy sort). The prices are very reasonable. Sorry I didnt take a pic of the food but it was so good I forgot about photos and just ate it!

Kate Black Bought a smashing sausage roll from Whitstable shed and nice chap said his daughter was up at 5 baking so well done her

Jenny B This is a creative, welcoming restaurant with a talented chef. I visited Whitstable with two good friends and visiting 39 (or Laurens as I prefer to call it) was one of our highlights. Whitstable is already a place worth celebrating for its pretty scenery, clear blue sea and independent shops, and this place was a hidden gem - though not so hidden as we found it through good Google reviews! We were very kindly welcomed by Fairlie and Roy and enjoyed the cocktails, with Head Chef Laurens Lemon Drop being the winner! The food was a delicious fusion of flavours! We found that five of the small plates shared by three of us was filling enough that we didnt ask for a desert. I would recommend giving 39/Laurens a try for its food, creative gallery feel and friendly ambience and if Roy is there he will happily tell you about the local area so do ask him!

Paul Forster We had such a great meal here. They’ve been a local Whitstable family run restaurant for over 35 years and it shows. It was quite busy quite early, but the one server handled everything with calm and personality. It never felt rushed or harried. The food was delicious and the atmosphere charming. The one drawback was the phone ringing endlessly as our poor server was there all alone. Would have prefered she shut the ringer off though!
