Cafe St Pierre

Quaint little cafe at the heart of Canterbury. The food was delicious, with a range of dishes ordered by the table and everyone being complimentary about their choice and enjoying it so much we even ended up having a dessert at lunch time. The cafe is very small, so if having space is a consideration you might need to check first. The staff were great, helpful, chatty and encouraging of our little one ordering for himself. Can't rate highly enough.

A lovely courtyard garden, and good food. I had a sandwich which I thoroughly enjoyed and I heard the lady at the table next to me say it was the best salad she'd had in a long time. The majority of staff were happy, smiley and helpful however our waiter seemed to be a grumpy teenage boy. The courtyard is charming with lots of potted plants and lovely flowers. The disguise for the rubbish crate needs a lot more thought, and our table was right beside it so it was very noticeable.

Really busy little cafe (you know it’s going to be good!) with a couple of front tables, indoor tables & garden space (it was full so we didn’t manage to see the garden). We sat in the front. Menu definitely could have been clearer & in larger font. Food was really good & we were welcome to take out although we didn’t think coffee was that good comparing to other places. Major low was when we ordered cheese panini & 2 spinach quiches… lady asked if we want some salad with it so we said yes… not expecting to be charged for it at the end £3.25 pp. Queue was really long, from both sides but we weren’t ready to pay £6.50 extra so I queued to ask what that charge was. The lady said its the salads, I said we had no idea we had to pay extra for it & were not prepared to pay extra(elsewhere when you order quiche or sandwiches you get extra salad &/or crisps without additional charge) but herself & other 2 members of staff just stood there in silence looking at me so I just took it on the chin & left. I’d like to suggest that next time when you offer things like this just clarify that it’ll be extra charge. It would save us frustration & you’d get a 5* review because food was really good (especially Honey Cake). Nobody likes feeling like they were being done over.
