• Thai • West Malling

West Malling, widely considered the gastro-capital of the Maidstone area, offers a wide range of restaurants and Pad Thai is it’s finest South East Asian offering, tempting in diners from across the South East. One of the reasons could be the combination of olde worlde Tudor building and traditionally inviting Thai inspired décor, another could be the warm welcome and excellent service but undoubtedly the main draw would be the unsurpassed food. Created by a team with a history serving the Thai Royal family, the traditional dishes are authentic and delicious, made with excellent, fresh ingredients.

• British • West Malling

Booked 2 times today

The Plough isn't your average countryside pub. Sitting on a quiet lane in a quintessentially English village, The Plough was set to be sold off the developers when 120 members of the community came together to invest, and save, their local. After its purchase and renovation, the Yates family took over the kitchen and opened the pub's small, but proud, restaurant, Bowleys. Head Chef Alex Yates is still very early on in his career but though only in his early twenties, he has already spent two years in the kitchens at The Goring Hotel in London, as well as having gained experience with Rick Stein and even once cooking for the Queen. Bowleys menus have a traditional feel and adhere to classic, English fare with a fine dining twist. There are several options to choose between including a tasting menu, set lunch, a la carte, brunch and Sunday lunch. The tasting menu is the jewel in Bowleys crown and consists of five courses, with an optional sixth.

Fantastic food, nice and friendly staff. Attentive, never had to wait for a drink. Roast portion sizes were great. The roast potatoes were fresh!! No reheated texture like in most places. and all roasts came with Yorkshire puddings and extras. Will definitely be returning!

We had a stop on our way to Ramsgate and we were very pleased with the pub. Great food, friendly service and lovely pub. It has a lovely garden and pla area. It’s fog friendly too. Highly recommended. The only little hitch was we couldn’t book for 7 of us by phone. A few of our a tried for days before but no answer. So we had to book 2 tables for 4 on opentable and hoped we could get the tables together. But it was no problem for the staff to seat us all together.
