Le Petit Café - (Near Kent, South East)

Angela Bennett Today, for the fifth year running we had our usual Pre-Christmas lunch at the Tudor tearooms in Whitstable. We like to try and visit as often as we can because the food is always so good, the staff are so friendly and the atmosphere is calm and cosy. Today was the last day of the Christmas menu and, as ever, it was the closest to our own Christmas Day meal as we have ever had. There were four of us, at the last sitting (2pm) and all of us had the (turkey and all the trimmings main course. Three os had the prawn cocktail which is exactly what we have at home, very often as a first course to a Sunday roast and always on Christmas Day. Served with brown bread and butter it was generous helping. The turkey roadtbwasbscrumptiousvwith four veg and extra gravy was available sausagemeat stuffing together with a largebsdd as usage wrapped in bacon were tasty accompaniments. Two of us had Christmas pudding with delicious custard and well made pudding it was. Again, I don’t eat Christmas pudding anywhere else as we make our own Christmas puddings to an old traditional family recipe so other than the Tudor tearooms no other comes even close! One of our group had the cheesecake and especially loved the shards of stem ginger, whilst the other had the black forest dessert which she said was delicious. A small glass of mulled wine started the lovely meal admirably. Wonderful usual, looking forward to next year - our Christmas starts with this visit where we always take a group photo on the beach! I’m already looking forward to my next visit and midweek roast dinner!

Anna Sutton I can’t understand why this place has such a low rating. I ordered a bacon sandwich which was absolutely delicious. Filled with five or six crispy rashers in a good quality bun. Hit the spot and I can’t wait to go back when I return to Whitstable!

Jennifer Parker Sensational! Quality ingredients, cooked well. We had lunch, lovely quiche, chicken and mushroom pie and the side salad is a selection of home made delicious salads - not the usual few lettuce leaves and tomatoes. Will be back!

Craig Smith Lovely place. Called on off chance of a meal and accommodated us in 10 minutes with our dog. Happy for him to sit in window with his bone. Service excellent and very friendly. Food very flavoursome.

Shivani Narayandas This turkish restaurant has amazing food, good ambience and the service is top notch. I recommend the chicken sarma bayti, it was delicious and the pide is amazing. Trying a bit of everything is always my policy. Ending it with the baklava dessert was just the cherry on top thats needed.

Alexander Isak I recently came back for another day out with a few more family members, and it was so much better. We were greeted very well, the food came very quickly, and it was very warm and was very pleasant to eat. The staff were very nice, we were treated with respect and they are dog-friendly! Definitely coming back again soon.
