Aroi Dee Maidstone
Barker Rd, MaidstoneWe stumbled upon this hidden gem in the Lockmeadow food area and what a find it was. From the moment we walked in, the two ladies serving us made us feel welcome and looked after. My son was absolutely starving and they really went out of their way to make sure he got something tasty and satisfying.
We’d had one disappointing experience in the past with reheated chicken nuggets elsewhere, so we were a bit unsure at first. But this place completely changed our mind. The food was fresh, full of flavour and honestly some of the best we’ve had in a long time. Every bite was enjoyable and perfectly cooked.
Service was warm and friendly throughout. You can really tell they care about their customers and their food. We’ll definitely be coming back next time we’re in Lockmeadow. Highly recommended.

Mehana "The Old House"
29 Lower Stone St, MaidstoneI don’t usually write reviews, but this place genuinely deserves it.
Mehana Maidstone is something different. You can tell straight away this isn’t just another restaurant—it’s built with real care, standards, and pride. The owner is clearly putting serious effort into delivering top-level quality and proper customer service, and it shows in every detail.
I’m currently on a strict carnivore diet, and they went out of their way to accommodate me. What I was served wasn’t just “adapted food”—it was a proper, thoughtfully prepared dish made specially by the chef (the owner’s father), and you can taste the experience behind it. Everything was cooked perfectly—juicy meats, clean flavors, no shortcuts.
This is the kind of place where:
* The food is honest and high quality
* The service actually cares
* You feel looked after, not just served
If you’re Bulgarian or just appreciate authentic Balkan-style food done properly, this place is a must. And even if you’ve got specific dietary needs like me, they’ll go the extra mile.
Respect to the team—this is how a restaurant should be run. I’ll definitely be back.

wagamama maidstone
19 Earl Street, MaidstoneWe had great service here, very accommodating and Knew the menu with confidence as they had to alternate due to some items being out of stock - katsu sauce, prawns and tofu
My guest had the pork belly ramen and I had the katsu udon (no.43) with added chicken.
Both were very good, but could have done with more pork and chicken.
The duck gyozas to start were cooked fine but inferior to the chicken ones.
The price was expected, obviously the prices have gone up everywhere. we didn't feel leaving like we had been ripped off which Is now the case in most hospitality venues.

Our server was experienced and kind and answered all our questions, and she took an interest in us despite it being a very busy evening. The salad bar was the usual high standard and the Harvester happy memories I've had since I was a child. The recent upgrade to the interior works really well and the atmosphere is lovely at this restaurant as it still retsind some of the original character of the country building. The only thing that I think doesn't quite work at this restaurant is the claw machine game right next to the dining area, as it does not fit with the interior.

Fishermans Arms
40 Lower Stone St, MaidstoneWe came by, this pub as we were going for a meal nearby. Cant really score food menu, as we didnt eat any. But it was a great little find, away from the busier side of Maidstone. A small quiet pub, with lovely staff, who were really friendly. A great range of beers, as well for the husband, who loves his IPA beers. Great to see the photographs on the wall, of Maidstone, through the centries, and the different pubs too. Lovely pub, small and homely. I am sure we will be back, for a drink as well. Might even come and try out their Sunday roasts, as it looks amazing.

Cafe Riviera
55 High St, MaidstoneGreat cafe close to the river. Food is freshly cooked to a high standard. At peak times you'd be advised to arrive early to ensure a choice of seats. Service is always quick. The menu does not look inspiring from the descriptions and lack of photos, but you can be assured it's good quality tasty grub.

Thai Palace Restaurant - Authentic Thai Cuisine
106 Week St, MaidstoneVery reasonable price. We got 3 starters, 2 mains and 2 sides and only cost 50 in total. The waiting staff were amasing and explained what the various dishes are to me. I would recommend to anyone wanting to try something new. Slightly slow service but that was expected as it was quite busy at the time

117 Week St, MaidstoneAbsolutely fantastic experience at Armetis Greek Taverna. The food was fresh, full of flavour and beautifully presented — the Beef Stiffano and traditional Greek dishes were outstanding. Our waitress was incredibly welcoming and attentive, and her wicked sense of humour never fails to put a smile on your face. She really helped create a warm, relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere throughout the meal. Portions were generous, prices reasonable, and the whole restaurant had a lovely authentic feel to it. One of the best dining experiences in Maidstone and we will definitely be returning again and again Highly recommended

Aroi Dee Maidstone
Barker Rd, MaidstoneWe stumbled upon this hidden gem in the Lockmeadow food area and what a find it was. From the moment we walked in, the two ladies serving us made us feel welcome and looked after. My son was absolutely starving and they really went out of their way to make sure he got something tasty and satisfying.
We’d had one disappointing experience in the past with reheated chicken nuggets elsewhere, so we were a bit unsure at first. But this place completely changed our mind. The food was fresh, full of flavour and honestly some of the best we’ve had in a long time. Every bite was enjoyable and perfectly cooked.
Service was warm and friendly throughout. You can really tell they care about their customers and their food. We’ll definitely be coming back next time we’re in Lockmeadow. Highly recommended.
5 stars from us.

Mehana "The Old House"
29 Lower Stone St, MaidstoneI don’t usually write reviews, but this place genuinely deserves it.
Mehana Maidstone is something different. You can tell straight away this isn’t just another restaurant—it’s built with real care, standards, and pride. The owner is clearly putting serious effort into delivering top-level quality and proper customer service, and it shows in every detail.
I’m currently on a strict carnivore diet, and they went out of their way to accommodate me. What I was served wasn’t just “adapted food”—it was a proper, thoughtfully prepared dish made specially by the chef (the owner’s father), and you can taste the experience behind it. Everything was cooked perfectly—juicy meats, clean flavors, no shortcuts.
This is the kind of place where:
* The food is honest and high quality
* The service actually cares
* You feel looked after, not just served
If you’re Bulgarian or just appreciate authentic Balkan-style food done properly, this place is a must. And even if you’ve got specific dietary needs like me, they’ll go the extra mile.
Respect to the team—this is how a restaurant should be run. I’ll definitely be back.
