Best Vegan Restaurants in Staplehurst

I work for the NHS and brought a colleague of mine to have Brunch. Food was great and order taken efficiently but from then on no one asked was everything was ok. We would have spent more with additional coffee/tea and maybe a nice piece of cake. So you missed opportunity of selling to us it wouldn’t have taken much ! All I said we did have a lovely time but will did feel once we had our meal served no one came to see if we would like anything else . We would have spent a lot more as the food we had was really good

Another great meal at this local gem. This time it was a Valentines tasting menu offering and all the courses delighted. Of special note were the scallops with smoked eel and then the halibut... beautifully cooked. Not forgetting the white chocolate petit fours... exquisite! A word about the service - fantastic. Will keep returning for sure

Great pub, great restaurant, great food. Fantastic service

We had a lovely evening at Essence and felt welcomed and at ease from the moment we arrived. Service was attentive, knowledgeable and friendly. We enjoyed the food and the fact that it was a decent portion size. We shared two starters and two mains with rice. We found the overall price pretty reasonable and will be back to sample more on the menu! Essence is definitely a great asset to Tunbridge Wells!! Thank you for a fun evening!!

Service was professional but good humoured. Food was outstanding. Lovely setting although a little chilly for our lunchtime dining but it was a really cold morning. Expensive but this is not gastro-pub food.
