Best Restaurants for Outdoor Dining in Rolvenden

We happened on this restaurant by chance and am very pleased we were able to secure a reservation. Lovely location right on the harbour with gorgeous views. The restaurant is designed brilliantly so all guests get to enjoy the view. The staff made us feel exceptionally welcome from the beginning. We had our young son with us and everyone made a real fuss off him which immediately put us at ease. Very attentive staff, delicious food and wine. Great menu for children also! Restaurant had such a lovely relaxed vibe. If you love seafood it’s a must. Will definitely be returning.

Great pub, great restaurant, great food. Fantastic service

Excellent evening dinner. The waitress was very polite, attentive and had good knowledge of the menu. The ambiance was excellent.

Superb choice for my 80th Birthday celebration. The chef even added an additional Happy Birthday desert. Having filmed numerous Food programmes for ITV, the whole team offer a highly professional service and take a great pride. Its a great example that no matter where the rural location is, if the ambience, food quality and staff, customers will always go the extra mile.

We went for Sunday lunch and had a lovely time. Cocktails are amazing, food was delicious, decor was great. The only downside was that the service was very slow and waiting staff not very attentive as in we sat with empty glasses for a long time and no-one came over to the table really except to take our order or serve the food. Also not enough gravy on the roast but that is a personal preference. Overall though loved The Hengist and would definitely go back!
