The St Mildred's Bay — Restaurant in Thanet

Visited today for lunch, me and my husband, we sat outside (absolutely stunning views) lovely space on the terrace but we had bikes with us so decided to sit out front which was still beautiful, staff were amazing and couldn't do more to help if they tried, were very attentive and any issues were dealt with.

Now for the food, we ordered fish and chips, the scotch egg, calamari and the bread and butter platter. 1 beer and a glass of water.

Fish and chips, cooked beautifully, crispy and not greasy, only downside was that there were quite a few bones still in the fish, but my husband still enjoyed it none the less.

Scotch egg, absolutely bloody beautiful!!! Would 100% reccomend this plate!! Perfectly cooked, outer was crispy, egg was soft and came with a small side salad. Unfortunately I did find a small hair in my food, I brought this up with the manager and he apologised profusely, It didn't stop me from enjoying the meal and I would never reccomend this stop anyone from trying this restaurant as mistakes happen and my food was good.

Bread platter, not much to say, presented well. Bread was fresh and soft, good quality butter and nice garlic butter on the side.

Now for the only real issue I had, the calamari, I had to send back due to being completely inedible. Was tough and rubery, I brought this up with the waiter, he asked of I'd like it to be re prepared but I wasn't prepared to have the same quality be bought out again so I chose to have the item refunded which they did straight away with no issues.

The food I did eat tasted beautiful and everything was presented and seasoned perfectly, I will be coming back to try them out again as I did enjoy most of my meal, the price point is slightly higher than what I would normally spend on lunch and drinks were expensive but saying that apart from the calamari the quality of the ingredients was great and I'm aware good food is going to cost a bit more than a standard restaurant and the way it was presented...

Amazing Wedding Venue! We had our Wedding reception, meal and evening party at St Mildred's on Saturday 31st May and we cannot thank the team enough for making our day absolutely magical!

Paul was on hand throughout the planning stages and once handed over to Mia for the final planning stages, she was available for any questions I had, day and night.

Mia and her team were absolutely exceptional throughout the day! The room looked stunning! We were slightly late arriving and the team accommodated this without any problem and ensured we were on time for everything going on during the day without feeling rushed. We had a set meal with 2 courses for 45 guests and everyone has commented on how fresh, hot, delicious and well present the food was. The evening buffet was enormous! I feel bad about how much was left at the end of the night but it was hot, regularly replenished and again delicious which so many of our guests have commented on!

Every member of staff was friendly, helpful, and went out of their way to make everything perfect, nothing was too much trouble.

Mia, you were amazing and we can't thank you enough for your attentiveness and attention to detail. You have the most accommodating and efficient staff, all with fantastic attitudes who really, really made our Wedding dreams come true! Thank you all so much! Louise...

After visiting this restaurant on numerous occasions we decided we wanted to get married here. The food is always very good & the backdrop is stunning! It was a win win situation.

Paul is very accommodating & planned everything we asked for. We hoped to marry on the terrace, he made that happen. Along with the manager Gary we had several meetings to arrange the day. Nothing was too much trouble.

Paul's recommendation for DJ & a wedding planner was also a good choice. Again very accommodating to our needs.

On the day - Wow everything was perfect! The staff helped the wedding planner set the scene & help move the isle from the terrace & serving champagne to our guests. The coordination went unnoticed. Paul's team are so professional but also so friendly. All of our guests mentioned how lovely the staff were.

We went for a buffet as it was an informal wedding. It did not disappoint. It was replenished time again & was fresh & delicious!

Over all we had the perfect wedding, in the perfect setting.

If you are considering getting married here, I would highly recommend it, in every way. If I could go back there isn't anything I would change. That's thanks to each & everyone of the people who work at The St Mildred's Bay. A huge thank you from the bottom of our hearts.
