Informazioni sul ristorante

  • Ottimo per un'occasione speciale
  • Atmosfera affascinante
  • Tra i migliori del quartiere
The Poet offers an informal yet refined dining experience in the heart of the Kent countryside. Set in a charismatic 16th century building, diners can expect food of the highest standards, made using the finest local and seasonal produce and lovingly prepared by a small team of chefs led by Head Chef & Director Lee Adams.

In addition to the food, we offer a selection of fine wines, quirky cocktails, and have a collection of over 25 craft gins available.

World War I poet Siegfried Sassoon lived in Matfield and is the inspiration behind our name. Sassoon was awarded the Military Cross for "conspicuous gallantry" and later won acclaim for his writing. We're pretty sure he would have loved our food too!

A warm welcome awaits diners from General Manager and Director Tom Haacke and his team. We look forward to seeing you!

Please be aware we do not cater for the vegan diet.

Late cancellations - £20 per person.

                                  Such a beautiful venue and the food is outstanding. Our waitress was lovely and extremely efficient. The lunch set menu was very good value and although we swapped a little with the Al la carte everything was truly outstanding. It’s great that it’s open on a Monday too when so many others are closed. Will definitely not leave it so long to revisit. Highly recommend. 5 stars all round!

                                  We've just thoroughly enjoyed a rather special Easter Sunday lunch at this wonderful local restaurant. From the moment we arrived we felt cosseted and welcome by Tom and his superb front of house team. The atmosphere is relaxed yet professional and it's fun to be there. The lunch was delicious - we both chose the Orkney scallop starter which was cooked to perfection, and Maggie's fillet of beef and my belly pork main with all the tasty trimmings was a credit to Lee Adams and his kitchen team. With no room for desserts we could only look with regret to those guests who had saved space for one of Lee's specialities! The wine list is very good too with something to complement every dish and palate. This is a delightful place!

                                  We love the roasts here but today the lamb was overcooked and bland and a £5 supplement for the Pork? Vegetables and gravy both delicious - not enough potatoes. Ambience always great - front of house a little OTT for some of our party.
