Bishopstone, Spanish Restaurant Guide

2021 Review: “Excellent moules flavored with tarragon – served with sourdough and a beer for a tenner”: such is the appeal of this busy four-year-old serving Spanish tapas and charcuterie alongside small plates of more modern British inspiration. Front-of-house Lee Murray is well known locally from the Goods Shed in Canterbury, while co-founder and chef Tim Wilson worked for The Ivy and Groucho Club in London.

2021 Review: “Quirky – but does it for us”, this atmospheric cellar close to the cathedral has long been popular for its “good quality, authentic Moroccan food” and Moorish décor, complemented by Andalusian tapas (classified as ‘light’, ‘medium’ or ‘rich’) and paella.
