Cafe No.35 Canterbury

Lovely staff but the food wasn't particularly inspiring. With the main door open it was pretty chilly throughout The chips were hand cut and there was a good berry smoothie but there was something not quite right in the cooking of everything - from waterlogged peas to tepid food. I think they were having a bit of a Monday morning!

I came in my own and was seated straight away. Not the best table but could easily have moved. I asked the waiter which was best prawn or chicken. He said he liked chicken Caesar so I ordered it and wasn’t disappointed. Best chicken Caesar in ages. Everything the right size to eat - the chicken tender and tasty, croutons crunchy and sauce not overpowering. The egg was poached and perfectly balanced on top. So nice! Bravo. I also had a spritzer with elderflower, elderberry and echinacea- yummy. Perfect lunch spot opposite the Hilton and 3 minutes walk from the Cathedral. Thank you.

Popped into the cafe after spending a couple of hours at the Cathedral. Was met by the waitress who started working 30 mins there but was really switched on and welcoming. Sat outside the cafe and the waitress came rushing out to move us into the restaurant. The Earl Grey tea we had was delicious. Whilst the cakes were good, the choices were more vegan or gluten-free. Great if you're that way inclined, but limiting for me.

We sat in the garden this afternoon for a beautiful lunch. The garden is absolutely gorgeous and lovely sun trap. We had an absolutely amazing waitress named Megan, she was wonderful, so attentive to all of us and so kind and polite. Definitely a diamond to the business. The chicken Caesar salad was the perfect meal to have in this heat sitting in the sun. As well as there yummy Iced coffees! I will certainly be running back, amazing hidden treasure.

Lovely restaurant, with an exciting menu! Drinks came quickly, nice and refreshing, but food service was a slower than expected. Staff could have been abit more attentive, as felt a little forgotten sat outside. But overall we throughly enjoyed our meal, and would visit again when in Canterbury. Visited on 21/05/22.
