Best Hot Spot Restaurants in Penshurst

We had the Rib Eye with Mac &cheese and tender stem broccoli and it was wonderful and came on time. The mac and cheese wasn’t as juicy as i would prefer but everything else was great. Our host Daniel was resourceful, humorous and advised on us on what to order. Which obviously enjoyed. The place was super full clearly cos it was vals day. But overall, I’ll definitely go back for the food and service.

Surprisingly tasty food and combinations. I wasn’t expecting the quality. This was, however, the valentines set menu. The wine list had the wrong St Emillon on (or they only held a different one to the one on the list). The price should have been about £40 not £54. I didn’t bother asking and they apologised for the mismatch. Loved the food.

We had a lovely evening at Essence and felt welcomed and at ease from the moment we arrived. Service was attentive, knowledgeable and friendly. We enjoyed the food and the fact that it was a decent portion size. We shared two starters and two mains with rice. We found the overall price pretty reasonable and will be back to sample more on the menu! Essence is definitely a great asset to Tunbridge Wells!! Thank you for a fun evening!!

Super welcome, excellent menu selection, friendly and attentive staff, great food and a thoroughly enjoyable evening. Big thanks to La Casa Vecchia!

What an amazing restaurant in the heart of Tunbridge Wells. It’s a shame it has taken me so long to find it. All the staff, including the doorman, were excellent and the food, ambience and singer were second to none. Such a great atmosphere. 100% we will be back soon.
