Restaurants near Chiddingstone Castle

A wonderful evening. Super service, fabulous ambience and delicious food! We couldn't of asked for a more special evening.

First time at the vineyard since the recent refurbishment, we received a warm greeting on an arrival! The staff service and food was amazing and we will definitely be returning in the new year!

We went to Essence for our pre-xmas dinner date and had an amazing dinner with super attentive, fabulous service. Would thoroughly recommend this restaurant and we will be back!

Second time lunching here in a month. Smashing menu, Christmas decor, friendly and attentive staff made lunch today an enjoyable occasion. The prawn cocktail was delicious. A return visit is planned.

Lovely starters and pudding but main course disappointing. I had roast beef but the Yorkshire puddings were overcooked and beef difficult to cut. I also prefer to add my own gravy as it smothered the plate. We hoped to add Salomon's to our shortlist for wedding venues but the food unfortunately did not have that extra special quality. However the staff were very good and helpful in letting us look at the wedding areas.
