The Bay View — Restaurant in Borough of Swale

On a mini holiday this weekend. Bay view was very close to where we were staying, so we had dinner there. Right from the get go, the staff were amazing, the servers were absolute sweethearts and very attentive. Can't tell you how many times we've gone to places and been completely ignored the whole time, so this was a lovely change! The young lad, sorry didn't get his name, owned his job! The food was very nice. I had pie of the day, the only criticism was that, the pastry was soft, BUT it was still very good, and the mustard mash was amazing. My son and partner seemed to enjoy their food alot too. Biscoff cheesecake was amazing. Food did take a while to come out, but they were busy, so we didn't think anything of it. Speaking to the young lad, after his apologies for the delay, we were surprised to find out that the pub had just reoped with new management, (so were having teething problems) was so busy and relaxed, I never would have guessed it. Anyway! Was a lovely evening with good music...

What a surprise!!! Wasn't expecting anything special as I was just passing on my way from the boot sale. The greeting was very welcoming which is as important as everything else. I had the lamb roast dinner with a cup of tea for £11.95. There was plenty of lamb which was cooked just right with no gristle or stringy peices, roast potatoes were perfectly cooked, but not overcooked to a crunchy husk. The dish also came with big fluffy Yorkshire pudding, broccoli, cauliflower and carrots. Not too crunchy and not too soft. This was served very quickly with no hanging around. For dessert I had a generous helping of chocolate fudge cake and custard which was £5. It was around 12.30pm and I was surprised the restaurant wasn't packed, it should be! I was in Leysdown the previous Sunday and this was hands down the best quality, service and value. Please note I am not affiliated to this business in any way and it is a...

Me and the family visited The Bay View pub yesterday to be together for an occasion. We sat outside in the warm weather for about 8 hours and had a great time! There are seats with sunshine and shade if needed.

Everyone was very friendly, especially the owners Katie and staff, who were in a positive way checking now and again if we were ok or needed drinks etc.

The food was really good, I personally had the Fish and Chips, which I would recommend, but all the food was presentable and decent portions in my opinion.

Although I personally live in Essex, I look forward to coming back with the family, who will definitely be going back for Darts and other events. If you live on the Island, please do support local businesses.

Thank you again...
