Best Restaurants for Groups in Great Bentley

Another amazing dining experience Everything was outstanding from the moment we got to the entrance The ambience is warm and friendly The food and service is always five star Well done smiths no matter how busy the restaurant is the experience is always perfect

This was my first but not last visit. It was Nutcracker themed afternoon tea. All tables were in themed booths, the deco was outstanding (says the art student) and gave a really great feel. Food was plentiful and really imaginative (think pigs in blanket hot dog in brioche canapé) and good quality. Music obvs was Nutcracker (think Dad would’ve ben disappointed not ELP) and loads of Xmas favs. Just a truly brilliant experience

Had a wonderful time at The Ivy Canterbury. We arrived early but were seated immediately. The restaurant was busy but not too noisy and the decor and ambience was excellent. Our waitress Millie, was very friendly and quick to attend to our needs. Food and drinks were bought to us in a timely manner and the food was excellent (the Ivy Snowman quite something although I'd recommend to share). Despite the place being busy and a clear demand for tables, at no point did we feel rushed and after we finished our meal and settled the bill, we moved to the bar to have a few more drinks at our leisure where once again the mixologists were chatty and friendly and able to make a multitude of cocktails of our choosing without having to check how to make them. The food and drink were on the pricier side but you get what you pay for and the bill was not unreasonable for what we received. As a Canterbury resident, I think I have a new favourite restaurant/bar.

A lovely meal in our village pub. Everyone really enjoyed their meals - and desserts! The ox cheek was delicious. Thank you Anchor team

Such a special experience! It’s been a difficult year for my wife Christine as she has been very poorly. We could not think of a better place to celebrate getting through 2024. The staff could not have been more helpful. The food was as usual out of this world. We hope to be back soon. Thank you so much. John & Christine Pokora
