The Oyster Pearl - (Near Kent, london)

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!

JC Friend recommended this place when we spoke about the best fish & chips to try in Whitstable. Glad to say I wasn’t disappointed at all. Great portion and amazingly fresh taste. The batter was light and chips were cooked perfectly. Seemed like it was a local spot since a lot of people came in after us and you could hear a lot of friendly chatter with the owner.

Glyn Pettit Love this Spoons the decor is fantastic and no expense spared on the interior design of this former picture house. Named after Peter Cushing the film actor who for a time lived close by in Whitstable.

Olivia Flashman My partner and I had breakfast here and it was truly one of the best breakfasts we have ever had!! I had avocado on toast and every bite was phenomenal, the veggie full English was perfect and they’re more than happy to make adjustments to your meal. A very much deserved 5 stars!!

Star Nold So a standard kebab type shop.. a little snack after a drink.. Chips with garlic mayonnaise.. what was not to like.

Mariola Mills Fantastic food and a nice atmosphere. We had prawns to share and fish tacos. They were delicious, very tasty and beautifully presented. Very good and friendly service too.
