FlyForFood My recent visit to Hungry House Burgers & Kebabs in Chatham high street was an unanticipated revelation, centered around a singular yet spectacular dish – the cheesy fries. As a self-proclaimed aficionado of this classic indulgence, I was thoroughly impressed by the mind-blowing rendition served at this establishment. From the first tantalizing bite, it was evident that these cheesy fries were a cut above the rest. The crispiness, a pivotal element in the success of any fry-based dish, was nothing short of entrancing. Each fry boasted a perfect golden exterior, providing a satisfying crunch that echoed with each bite. It was the kind of crispiness that takes a dish from good to exceptional. The cheese component of this culinary masterpiece was equally praiseworthy. A decadent blanket of melted cheese adorned the mountain of fries, ensuring that each strand was generously coated. While my visit focused solely on the cheesy fries, the ambiance and service at Hungry House Burgers & Kebabs were noteworthy. The establishment exuded a welcoming atmosphere, and the staff demonstrated efficiency and friendliness, adding to the overall positive dining experience. If you find yourself in Chatham craving a crispy, cheesy delight, this establishment is an absolute must-visit. #HungryHouseExperience #CheesyFriesHeaven

Matthew Bodycombe I dropped in here for lunch today for the first time. I had the vegetarian Chana Daal. It was tasty and well cooked and I was given a choice about how hot I wanted the dish. The meal was good value at £13 with a side salad and drink and the chap there gave me a fresh Naan bread for free. There are two guys there. I dealt with the younger one who was very welcoming. Quite a few people eating there from the local Pakistani community which shows the food is authentic and not like your usual Indian restaurant. I’ll go in again for sure.

Michael Wyatt Booked a Xmas meal for eight people, the whole evening was organised really well by the restaurant, right from the online pre-ordering of the food, to the printed name tags laid out on the table when we arrived which included a brief summary of everyones order. The service was perfectly timed and the staff were all very friendly, the food was great. Would definitely recommend and will definitely return

Hannah Masters The food here is honestly spot on, everything we ordered was cooked perfectly. You can tell they really care about what they’re serving. The flavours were proper rich, everything tasted fresh, and the portions were just right, filling but not over the top! What really makes the place though is the people. The owner’s always about, chatting to customers and just making sure everyone’s looked after, which you don’t see that often. The staff are all lovely too, super friendly, really helpful but not in your face. It just makes you feel properly welcomed from the second you walk in. Not to mention the board game options are such a good idea to pass time. And it smells amazing!! Plus the place looks really cool inside with good music. Definitely one of those spots I’ll keep going back to. Can’t recommend it enough.

Shiny Candi I absolutely adore Pam’s Exotic Jerk Hut in Dockside. It’s my go-to on the weeks I don’t have my children and don’t want to cook, and it never disappoints. The food is proper Caribbean comfort food — full of flavour, cooked with care, and there’s always a great range of choices available. I’ve never turned up and felt like I was scraping the barrel; there’s always plenty to choose from. I’ll be honest — I dont really buy Caribbean food in Kent, I always used to pick it up on my way back from South London, so finding this place locally has been amazing. It genuinely feels like a little taste of home without the long journey. The service is impeccable every single time — friendly, warm, and welcoming. The hut itself is tiny but always spotless, well organised, and beautifully presented. You can tell a lot of pride goes into running this place. My only (very minor!) gripe is that there’s never quite enough coco bread for the patties — but honestly, that just tells you how popular they are. Absolutely love this place and will keep coming back. A real gem.

michael thomas Food here is very nice loved all of it if you have a big appetite this is great for you a lot of different foods and the deserts are very delicious
