    There’s a lot of talk about good quality neighbourhood restaurants. This restaurant answers that talk. The food is really well presented, very well cooked and uses great local produce. It’s a really accessible, unpretentious restaurant. The service is very genuine, polite and not at all stiff, however has a nicely efficient structure to it. The pricing appears to have some thought behind it as well, if you want to spend a bit you can, or you can have a really good meal at a very reasonable price with the set menu. We have tried both options on our visits and not been let down by either. A really good restaurant

    Flawless meal and service Little bit chilly as we were in line of the door but not sure much can be done about that as was a freezing night. Maybe a curtain across the door to stop the draft would help. Didn’t detract from a really wonderful evening and meal though. Will definitely revisit!

    We had a lovely evening at Quince during Margate restaurants week. We had wanted to visit for a while and this was a perfect opportunity to try it out. We were not disappointed, the food, service and general feel were lovely and we will must certainly be back.

    Yet another quite superb meal at Quince. Quite simply why dine elsewhere when you can have the best. Today we had a set lunch that was just prefect. Starters were Leaks and Goats Curd and Duck Terrine with Green Tomato Chutney and Toast. This was followed by Pork Belly and spinach, beans, black pudding with perfect potatoes. Great balance of flavours. Dessert, oh dessert! Honey and IPA tart with a special mincemeat (fruit) custard. Great wine list and such perfect professional service. The amazing chefs ability to manage on every occasion to produce such excellent food with perfect flavours balances is such a credit to their ability.
