Went here to get a cuppa, before we got our coach home. Had a chat and laugh with the manager, didn't mind us sitting for a while. Good range of foods on offer, and caters for all tastes. Very friendly.

After popping in a couple of times to eat back in October last year on a week long stay, we were taken with both the food and the welcoming couple who own Gilbert’s, and so we were looking forward to returning on a day trip to Whitstable today. We were not disappointed, we ordered a couple of baguettes a lamb salami special and a Reuben and although Mr G was doing the cooking on his own today, with the help of a friendly server our food was just as delicious. Gilbert’s is such a quirky little hidden gem. Keep up the good work, we’ll see you next time.

I came here for lunch based on the overwhelmingly positive reviews and the fact they cater to different dietary requirements and they did not disappoint in the least! I got the warmest welcome, Gary and Tara are possibly the friendliest and funniest couple! They obviously take great pride in their shop and work hard to keep it that way. I got a delicious mackerel salad made for me by Tara.

We went to Gilbert’s for lunch and was very impressed by the service and food. To quote my husband “this is the best breakfast bap I have ever had” I had pancakes with bacon and maple syrup. It was amazing!!!
Great coffee and cake with a friendly welcome - highly recommended local independent business.
