Vesuvius Restaurant – MaidstoneAs also the food was lovely, with the exception of overdone yorkshire puddings and stuffing missing from roast turkey. However the service left was extremely lacking. Left waiting at the door, then despite having a booking had to wait for tables to be pushed together. Mains arrived and we were still waiting for our drinks. Did complain about the yorkshire however the replacement bought out was just the same! Waitress cleared 1/2 the plates and said she would return for the rest and bring the dessert menu. Needless to say she didn't return! After a while called over another waitress for the menu. Then waited and waited for her to return! called another waitress over, she took the orders. The waited and waited and had to ask where our desserts were! I have never been so disappointed and I had taken my elderly parents who were visiting there for lunch. It may be a while before I return!
Chestfield Barn – WhitstableVisited on a Sunday. First impressions of the outside space and pond really nice. Walking into the Barn looked a little dated but OK. Service was good throughout the time we were there. I felt that the food let this place down. The deconstructed prawn cocktail was flavourless and lots of cayenne pepper or similar sprinkled over it to make it look cheffy, but it didn't work. The roast beef was REALLY overcooked. An abundance of vegetables disproportionate to the meat and potatoes. Maybe they were low on meat so were trying to make up for it! Scampi and chips both from a frozen bag so impossible to spoil . I feel this Barn could be amazing if they upped their game and did better food. I'd happily have paid another £10-15 pp for better food and sadly I won't be returning. Maybe the owners should try some other pubs to try their food and see where they can improve. The Red Lion at Hernhill would be a very good in comparison.
