Samphire - (Near Kent, london)

Dan C We collected a take out on Christmas Eve and really glad we did. The food was ready promptly. The staff were really friendly, the restaurant had a lovely buzz. The food was excellent. We shared a mixed kebab starter, and had 2 beautiful curries with rice and naan. Couldnt fault a thing. The king prawns in the jalfrezi were delicious and the naga lamb had a great kick to it. Looking forward to our next one already!

Tania Its a really lovely spot with excellent service and a great atmosphere. It’s not the only place on the seafront, but good ones are hard to find here, and this one definitely stands out. Prices are very reasonable. I truly recommend it. There’s a summer terrace, and inside it’s cosy and beautiful. The staff are top-notch.

Cameron Cockburn Delicious breakfast - those creamy mushrooms are unreal. Great portion sizes and friendly staff, bit snug at the front of the cafe.

Emily C What a lovely spot to have lunch. We walked from Herne Bay round to Whitstable so were very ready for a rest and refuel. The guy behind the bar was so attentive, food was fresh & delicious and cold pints - what more could you want! Dog friendly too!

Julie-Anne Clements I booked a table upstairs for Sunday lunch over the bank holiday weekend for 5 ladies celebrating a birthday. The food was fantastic, it came out quickly, was beautifully cooked and the presentation was great. 4 of us had the roast beef and 1 had the roasted butternut squash and we shared side dishes of cauliflower cheese. All of the food was outstanding. The staff were lovely, really friendly and attentive. We also enjoyed the music playing, the decor and general atmosphere. We are not local and were staying in the area and had booked The Rock Lodge based on a Google and Trip Advisor search. We highly recommend this restaurant and would definitely visit again when in the area.

Agnieszka Donanska Great little café with delicious food and fantastic service. The sandwiches are amazing and the arancini taste just like in Italy. Everything was fresh and full of flavor. I can’t wait to come back again!
