We went on Saturday afternoon for lunch and had burgers with fries. The food was delicious. Very tasty. The service was also very good. Efficient yet friendly at the same time. I would go back.

We were offered a choice of tables and chose one near a window. The restaurant is spacious and comfortable and the service was attentive and friendly. The food was delicious, with excellent seasoning and attractive presentation. We would definitely return!

Overall very good. We had the roast pork, which was very tender, with veggies and all of it was hot. The dessert, coconut & passion fruit panna cotta with granola & pomegranate, was very refreshing and tasty. The speed and quality of service was also very good. We shall certainly go again.

Obviously hit them at a bad time as 1 member of staff only who was not present on arrival. He did his best. Food standard adequate. However, appetizers on the menu were olives £3.20 and bread with olive oil and balsamic also 3.20. I ordered a plate of olives only. It had not arrived for some while so I prompted the gentleman, whereupon he eventually brought a plate of olives accompanied by some pieces of bread. When I remarked on the bread he said it was because we' d had to wait so long. Alas, when the bill came, the charge was "olives and bread, £4.20". This is a small point but bad behaviour. It tipped an already borderline experience into a negative one. We will not be returning.

Excellent food as always. Waiting staff lovely but they seemed not to be fully trained. We were offered lamb either rare or well done. We wanted medium which we did get in the end after the waiting staff consulted with the chef. Pudding to share did not come with additional plates or utensils. The food is lovely but at the prices charged, one would expect first rate service and more attention to detail.

Great food, lovely staff too. Really enjoyed the evening. Both A La carte and bar menu was offered, we chose the sirloin steak and it was absolutely delicious. Cheese board was delicious too. Would definitely go back next time I am staying over in Folkestone

Booked at lunch for husbands birthday. Lovely old building decorated with a modern twist. Service was excellent. We only ordered the Cliffe burger but it was probably the best burger we’ve ever had. The manager is very welcoming and spent time chatting to us. As it was my husband’s birthday, he bought out a free glass of bubbly for us both which was a very nice touch. After our meal he let us have a look at one of the rooms which was stunning for a hotel room. Large bathroom with separate roll top bath and large bedroom with fireplace overlooking the sea. We will definitely be returning to try the evening menu and will book an overnight stay for my birthday!

Good evening enjoyed by all. Cannot find fault with food and table service. The prices are however, fairly expensive for the area so if this restaurant is going to maintain these prices staff must pay attention to areas that people expect from a 'high end' restaurant including taking coats on arrival, pouring wine on behalf of guests, checking all is acceptable after food is served.

Nice food and nice venue with views out to sea. Very pleasant staff. But stairs down to toilets which at 73 years of age gives me difficulty. I know you can't do anything about my age!

The wine we ordered when we arrived didn’t appear until just before our starters came out. The restaurant manager was very polite but seemed a little stretched working on his own. The food did however make up for the slow start in service and would definitely recommend The Cliffe Restaurant to others.
