This is a stylish, chic, special venue. If you donât like seafood and Champagne/Prosecco, donât bother. If you donât appreciate fine food prepared with love, stay clear! This is a special place for romance, business, celebration or simply appreciation. We had the oysters to stray, which were lovely, accompanied by a bottle of Prosecco. Just wonderful. Then we had the lemon sole on the bone, simply grilled with a marinade/sauce. The new potatoes and green beans were a good addition. Their (red) Primitivo is very special, silky smooth and full of fruit. Quite outstanding. What a wonderful evening with friends: quiet, sophisticated, great service, and superb cuisine.

Popped in here on our way up from Eastbourne back to London. Was suprised to get seated so quickly as it was very busy with live music in the garden. Received a warm welcome from the lady serving the carvery which looked tasty but she advised we wait 5 minutes while they put fresh food out. Was so full from the delicious roast that we couldn't manage a desert that comes with it. The waitress insisted we pick something to take home with us. Can't recommend this place enough.

I booked my motherâs 76th birthday at The Warren and we all travelled down separately from London and Sevenoaks to meet for lunch there. When we arrived, the restaurant was shut and there was a note saying that due to technical difficulties, the restaurant was closed. I received no email nor telephone call which would have prevented this wasted journey. I have since called 3 times and have not revived a call back. I think this is unprecedented in my experience.I wouldnât go here. There is clearly something peculiar at large here. Avoid at all costs.

Whilst out getting some air after working nights, I happened across The Guinea a colleague of mine had mentioned months ago about his friends taking it over so I popped in for a little food and a drink.Walking in it was very quiet but staff were friendly and I ordered a drink Titanic Brewery stout, as no Guinness but was thank full for the suggestion as it was a very smooth pint.The menu was short and sweet, enough choices to cover everyone's tastes, but not that many that you have to think and think about what you want.I decided upon the Brisket and burnt ends, which had a home made potato salad and home made cornbread muffin.The brisket was very very yummy, (smoked on the premises as well) it fell apart as you are it and was smothered in a rich spicy (a little too spicy for me) BBQ sauce.The potato salad was good as it softened the spice of the BBQ sauce but the potatoes could have been cooked just a few min more (and checked for bad ones as I had one which was a little black) but was lovely and fresh.Now the corn bread, I can still taste. (Can't remember what the butter was they out on top, but the flavours were amazing) the bread was crispy and soft inside and really did finish the dish.Not normally a dessert kind of person but fancied some icecream of a light dish.Ordered the cheesecake but unfortunately they didn't have any ready, so went for sticky toffee pudding with vanilla ice cream. It was amazing, warm sticky and full of flavour.Whilst sitting there it did get busier with family's and singles alike. I didn't go into the garden but from what I saw it looked welcoming and tidy.Staff were great from drink recommendation to info on food, a real gem of a place and will definitely return (the staff member mentioned a sharing platter of Brisket and pulled pork, which sounds devine )

The tasting menu with the wine flight is not the cheapest night out, but it makes a special occasion even more special. The food quality and presentation is exceptional. The service is friendly, attentive and informative without being overbearing or pretentious. The Poet may be a pub, but this is top restaurant food and service.

My husband live near this pub. We like wandering down there past the beautiful rocks and having a pint in the garden. The food is perfectly nice. Affordable. Friendly staff. The beer garden is not accessible for wheelchair users or buggies really. I wouldnât bring my grandma or young kids there. Thanks for your review Lucy.Although the garden may not be accessible ( due to the fact we are situated in a natural rock formation area and the whole pub is built on a tier system) we have wheelchair access to the side of the pub and from there on in an easy accessible patio area, we are well equipped with a large disabled loo also. We are glad you enjoy our food and find it well priced- Thankyou for visitingNick, Shell and Team Toad
