Gastropubs in Canterbury

“Welcoming & super friendly staff, clean and cosy establishment, the food was absolutely delicious. I would highly recommend. 5 stars !”

“We chose The Prince of Wales for our Anniversary lunch. We hadn't booked, but took a chance as it was towards the end of lunch time servings. We were given a friendly welcome and told to choose where we would like to sit. We sat at a lovely table tucked into the corner, over looking the front. There are a few different areas to choose from, all with great character, including the garden. Our waiter was very friendly and swiftly brought our drinks orders over along with the menue. My husband can be a little fussy where food is concerned, however there was a great choice for him, plus some lovely specials.
We shared the Beef Brisket Croquettes with horseradish sauce, followed by the steak and mushroom pie for hubby, and the stuffed chicken for me. Everything was very fresh and cooked to perfection and presented beautufully ? Timings were great, a little time between each courses, we never felt rushed.
Not sure if we wanted desserts, but was soon swayed by the fact that 95% of desserts are made on site. I ordered the Cheesecake, which was mixed berries with a large dollop of delicious ice cream. My husband, who didn't want a dessert, gave in to the Gypsy Tart, again with ice cream. Both desserts were delicious, genorous and again beautifully presented. Sadly my phone died so I didnt get a photograph of them.
The young lady and our waiter were very friendly and happy to chat. They asked if we had enjoyed our meal and hoped that everything was ok. It certainly was, we loved the food, the atmosphere, the friendliness. We would highly recommend this countryside pub and will definitely return.”

“Stopped by for an impromptu lunch. Couldn't manage the Tasting so ww opted for a few 'snacks'. The Parfait in particular was excellent. Worth a visit.”

“How have i lived in east kent for 30 years and never knew about this pub. It is absolutely stunning, steeped in history with so many original features.

“Such a lovley Saturday lunch at the Bridge Arms. Our party of 5 had a stunning assorted selection of snacks/starters. The buttermilk chicken amd oysters were to die for. The foccacio was incredible. We all ordered different mains, my hake with fennel and boullabaise was outstanding and so delicious. Service and atmosphere was 10/10.”
