The Vintage Empire - (Near Kent, South East)

5 /5 DJ Clinic: We had a wonderful visit to Caffè The Vintage Empire. The place has a charming 1940s English vintage deco feel, which gives it such a warm and nostalgic atmosphere. I had the poached egg on toast with salmon, along with a pot of tea, and everything was absolutely delicious. We also enjoyed a beautiful slice of Victoria sponge—light, fresh, and perfectly made. The prices were very reasonable, and the service was excellent from start to finish. A delightful spot that truly takes pride in its vintage style. Highly recommended!

5 /5 Michael Scott: Absolutely brilliant! I love the atmosphere and the dedication to detail. The homemade cakes and savouries were delicious and the coffee was excellent. Very friendly and helpful staff. Would definitely recommend visiting. I will certainly be visiting again.

5 /5 Joe Attwood: My new favourite place in Herne Bay. Tasty breakfast, drinks were great, the staff were friendly and helpful, the decor was quirky and a great talking point. Loved my breakfast here (eggs royale) and will be returning soon.

5 /5 NickyM Martin: This place is such a passion project; every detail of the era is thought through, creating a cosy, nostalgic environment. The garden is also really lovely. As for the food and cakes; better than you could even make at home - the quiche was one of the best I’ve ever had, with such a delicious fresh salad and coleslaw on the side. Hubby had the tuna sandwich which was also yummy. Finished off with a heavenly slice of pistachio and raspberry sponge and a lovely chat with one of the super friendly girls working there. There’s a tea menu to satisfy any tea snob. We loved the whole experience and will return for sure!
