The Coppice — Restaurant in Borough of Swale

Me and my family were looking for a place to have Sunday roast and Google suggested me this place. We went and, as soon as we entered, we asked if we could have a table for 3. The owner looked at us and asked us if we had a booking. We didn't have a booking and the place was empty: there were no customers apart from a group of friends of the owner. The owner then said to us that they were fully booked and couldn't accommodate us. So we just left and looked for another place instead. They pride themselves of having a friendly atmosphere but I can assure you that this place is not the case!!! They clearly didn't want to serve us as we were just visiting the Isle of Sheppey and are not from the area. WORST CUSTOMER EXPERIENCE I HAVE EVER...

Not busy on a mid wednesday afternoon only a couple of drinkers at the bar. 3.5 🌟 would be better but, no...
