Broadstairs Restaurant Guide

“Utterly triumphant” food “which surprises and delights” again inspires only adulation for Ben & Sophie Crittenden’s tiny converted sandwich shop. “It’s a privilege to see a chef working on the pass on his own – a real feat!” – and with “one person front of house and ten covers”, the overall impression given by this “small, stylish and sexy venue”, which only serves a no-choice tasting menu, is “phenomenal”. Now three years old, it was blessed with a star by the Michelin man in October 2019.

“Ask for a window table overlooking the harbour, but wherever you sit, you’ll not be disappointed”, say fans of this tastefully decorated and “lively” bar/restaurant. Its ratings are constrained by a couple of reporters who found it pricey or disappointing, but most feedback relates of “careful cooking”, with fish dishes particularly recommended. Top Tip – “a quality breakfast near the sea”.
