The Evenhill — Restaurant in Canterbury

The Evenhill is an absolute gem—a charming old-style country pub with a cosy, comfortable annexe behind it offering seventeen lovely older style rooms. We stayed in room four on the ground floor, which was spacious and well-equipped, featuring a large, comfy bed, a big bathroom with a shower over a corner bath, a flat-screen TV, and plenty of space for our belongings. It was spotlessly clean, wonderfully quiet, and warm—perfect for a relaxing getaway. Added bonuses include free WiFi, free parking, and it’s pet-friendly (just let them know in advance if you’re bringing your dog).|We were lucky to book a table at the restaurant for dinner, coinciding with a special Burns Night supper. It was a lively, fun evening with delicious home-cooked food, mostly prepared by the lovely proprietor, Debbie. The three-course meal was outstanding, and the complimentary Baileys and whisky toasts made it even more memorable! Despite being newcomers, we were made to feel just as welcome as the regulars and locals, which was such a nice touch.|Breakfast the next morning was equally impressive. Everything was made to order from the menu, and my poached eggs were perfect. My husband loved his hearty full English breakfast, and the additional buffet with cereals, toast, and fruit added to the experience.|The staff were outstanding—friendly, attentive, and always happy to help. The overall atmosphere was warm, welcoming, and genuinely lovely.|We couldn’t recommend The Evenhill enough, whether you’re looking for a cosy retreat or a fantastic dining experience. We’d love to stay again if we are ever back...

Never had such tasty sausages and the bacon and poached eggs cooked to perfection. All served up very hot.|Evening meals were also as delicious and a good size - too big for us oap’!! |The waitress’s were efficient and chatty. |The owner Debbie, obviously was at pains to ensure we had a pleasant experience and was also very enquiring about my wife, who had to visit Canterbury hospital on the first day of her stay. She is a very good organiser and host.|Our friends ( him recognisable from his lairy shirts) and my wife and I would have no trouble recommending this establishment in the future. |Thanks to all who made our...

Have had meals here before but never the carvery so my youngest suggested a visit. Yesterday was a bit hard as my father pased away this year and yesterday would have been his birthday so we needed a little cheering. What can I say. We were met by friendly staff and shown to our table. The kind waitress who looked after us saw that my mum was having a little difficulty walking so she took her order and arranged to have her plate actually brought to her which was a lovely touch. The carvery was excellent. All the meats were tasty and succulent and the guy actually doing the carvery was friendly and made sure whether I wanted well cooked beef rather than rare. A good selection of vegetables as well meant that my plate was piled high. And it tasted as good as my mums sunday roast (sorry mum). Finished it off with homemade apple crumble with custard.
