Sunshine Folkestone Bistro — Restaurant in Folkestone and Hythe District

A lovely discovery day 1 but day 2 not so good.

I had breakfast and the food was cooked beautifully and with quality ingredients. Further, the kitchen amended the standard menu listing to what I wanted.

Comfortable surrounds .

Pleasant staff with largely good and speedy service.

Given the table call buttons and waiting on service the 'welcome desk' is somewhat formal and unnecessary .

Not the cheapest but I think with the positive experience largely appropriate ... It means it's a now and again treat rather than more regular.

I will definitely be returning here.

I did return the next day as it happened given I was so pleased.

Alas the same breakfast was one poached egg and one tomato less than the day before. The manager did bring a second egg but was very reluctant and was abrasive rather than apologetic, suggesting I'd ordered extra the day before . Hopefully a one off blip as the food was again good and not a weights and measures issue. He then tried to charge me for the 2nd egg but finally gave in to just charging 30 p more for a one tomato less meal than yesterday ! I think they need to get their act together here as they turned a delighted returning customer into one that would consider twice about going a further time. My initial five stars across the board have been...

We had the pleasure of celebrating my birthday at Sunshine Bistro, and it truly exceeded all my expectations! From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with warmth and genuine hospitality. The ambiance was perfect—elegant yet cozy, creating an atmosphere that made me feel elegant all night.

The food was nothing short of spectacular. Every dish we ordered was bursting with flavor, beautifully presented, and clearly made with the freshest ingredients. The appetizers were a hit, and the main course was simply divine.

The service was impeccable. Our server was attentive without being overbearing, and they went out of their way to ensure that everything was perfect for my special day. The attention to detail, from bringing out a personalized dessert to offering a thoughtful birthday toast, made me feel incredibly special.

I couldn’t have asked for a better place to celebrate. Thank you to the team at Sunshine bistro for making my birthday so unforgettable. I will definitely be back and highly recommend this gem to anyone looking for an exceptional...

I've been here before , and the staff have always been great , but today was disappointed, mainly with the service, the staff couldn't even raise a smile. My eggs benedict arrived without the avocado relish and the eggs were solid. When the waitress cleared the plates she asked if everything was OK, but was so disinterested that she was walking away even as I was speaking to her. My friend asked the manager for the bill and he also enquired about the meal , she told him it was fine but there was an item missing from one plate and the eggs were overdone . Sadly , he was also disinterested. I didn't want to make a fuss as the food is usually very good , but they didn't want our feedback , and the attitude was very poor, so that's why I've written this review. It was a birthday brunch , but it felt very flat and unwelcoming, such a shame , as it has put us off...
