The Harbour Garden Cafe

Had to meet a prospective ghost tour guide, so due to my disability I chose this venue and was very pleasantly surprised by the excellent service I received from the staff! Seeing me in my trolley the chap opened up the side of the cafe allowing me full access to the interior of the restaurant! My friend had Seafood Stew, a mix of cod loin, mussels and white wine! I had already eaten but as you can see from his happy face he was impressed by it! Victoria was very attentively looking after us! I have eaten here before in the summer great atmosphere friendly service, come and see for yourself. Good view of the harbour and its fleet catching and landing fish!

I booked a table for 14 as it was my father's birthday. We pre ordered and expected a nice evening with the normal level of good service we usually get here. I was wrong - they guys there massively raised the bar and we had the most amazing evening. They provided balloons for the table, the food was delicious and the service was second to none. I cannot thank the staff including Julia, Annemarie, Neave and of course the guys in the kitchen. Thank you so much for making the evening one we will all remember xxx

This is a nice harbour facing restaurant in Whitstable. Very busy when we attended on a sunny Sunday afternoon. Staff were friendly and accommodating. We ordered the seafood platter which was pretty good however a bit pricey for the portion size. All mains are around the £20 mark. A great option when visiting Whistable on a day out.

What a wonderful place to eat! The gentleman who served us and showed us to his table was so polite, friendly, and welcoming. The atmosphere in the restaurant was so cool, music playing and the smell of food was so delicious! All staff were very polite and helpful. The food was absolutely divine! The best fish and chips I've had in years!

Lovely spot just by the water. Fresh seafood and good drink selection - although pricey. I’ve never had battered fried oysters and would say its not worth it for the price of an oyster as you end up just tasting the batter. Chips were really good but the crab didn’t add much flavour so I’d opt for regular chips next time. Worth a trip if you’re by the waterfront!

Came here the day after a wedding and it was the first place we came across. Despite it being really busy we were quickly greeted and service was great the whole way through. Started with a selection of different food but the oysters were the winner really tasty great quality oysters. For the main we had a seafood platter that was a great selection of seafood again really tasty. Our friends however had the steak and prawns and they were not so keen on the steak but in my view if your by the seaside you should only be eating seafood so serves them right. All in all good choice for food when in the area with better service.

Been past this restaurant several times before and it's always been busy, we decided to take a shot and wait in the queue ourselves. It was super hot outside, but they offered us a glass of water which was really kind and needed on a hot day. Service was good, super friendly staff and knowledgeable, they missed the napkins so we had to ask, but no harm was done. Food was lovely and they do care about quality so the prices are to be expected. There's often live music played as well, so if you care for that you should definitely give it a check.

Such a nice restaurant! The host last evening was so lovely, and the servers were so sweet and kind the entire service. We had the bread starters, prawn bucket dish and fries. Everything was so delicious and beautifully cooked; the kitchen staff are doing an amazing job. The shell-on prawns were cooked just right, which can be hard to do. Definitely the place to sit down and have some seafood if you’re planning to go to Whitstable Harbour!
