The Captain's Table Cafe — Restaurant in Folkestone and Hythe District

However, this may change as this review is based on the state of the restaurant on the 31st of July 2021. There is also only 1 toilet in the...

Went with 33 students: definitely tested the kitchen and waiting staff! We'd booked ahead and we were all grouped together on separate but neighbouring tables.

Staff were very patient despite some students changing their orders at the last moment, and we weren't even charged for a breakfast cancelled when it arrived (sorry).

Nice location near the harbour as well, was great to pop out and watch the tide coming in. I...
