The Brenchley — Restaurant in Maidstone

Me and my family ate here the other day i had sausage and mash what was described as cumberland sausage wheel mash and peas served in a giant Yorkshire pudding with onion gravy £12 I believe it was and my kids had sausage and chips £6 each. Well as you can see by the photo i took after i mixed the gravy cause it was patchy and all different colours because it wasn’t mixed properly but was also quite a gelatinous texture, it was most certainly not served in a giant Yorkshire, there was a thimble sized pot of peas, the mash was most definitely smash or some off brand version. The girls food came on a tiny side plate with a table spoon of sweetcorn. Don’t get me wrong I don’t mind smash and the food was ok but when your paying £50 odd for 4 meals (mrs had a hunter’s chicken that was half meat half gristle) you kind of expect better. Now if they did a kids eat for a quid type thing I wouldn’t have walked away with the negative views that i did but they are charging too much for what they are serving was what the staff members where saying to each other and im inclined to agree

Great place! Food is great, atmosphere is great, staff are great, clientele are lovely, prices are great! Regarding disabled access, this gets tricky! You need to press a doorbell which none of the staff can hear! Usually a customer will get help lol! Then the ramp is lifted down over the steps, but is bent and no body seems keen to fix it which us ok going up but a tad tricky descending! That said, the arrangement inside is fine, the of chair jiggle here and there and the outer area is great for smokers and access alike. My only real hate is the disabled bathroom which is a Tardis like box where the for opens right out into a guest table, which pud me off using it as they then have to move and it's all very public and embarrassing! Still worthy of a top marks score though! Oh, the bouncers tried to encourage me not to enter when it was packed one wkend but fortunately for me, I don't let being a wheelchair user stop me so I wasn't about...

A disappointing meal to say the least. I had the dirty burger which was supposed to have crispy bacon the bacon was barely cooked. It should have had sauteed onions what was on my burger I can only describe as a boiled mush. The pickles were missing as was the mustard, mayo and ketchup, the chips were barely hot and the sauce which comes on the side was also missing. My mother had the souvolaki chicken wrap which was cold. (Souvolaki should be hot so misguided information) and was just a curried chicken salad wrap. This should have had crumbled feta which if it was in the wrap was undetectable.

The young man with blonde hair who delivered our food was lovely and polite however the young lady who cleared our table with brown hair and glasses had no interest in listening when we tried to tell her the issues with the food. Overall a...
