The Hinds Head in Bray, being a Michelin starred pub, has been on my radar for a while. We had the opportunity to visit just after Christmas, and I am very pleased we did! The service was excellent, as was the food – fois gras was delicious and beautifully presented, the roast beef was wonderful with excellent roast potatoes. We felt it was a venue to take older children to rather than a toddler – this was mostly down to having no background noise to cover up the usual sounds youngsters make. Overall though, a great place and The Hinds Head in Bray scores 4.5 out of 5!
Read More...The Dirty Habit, Hollingbourne
After looking for a Sunday lunch near Maidstone, I settled on The Dirty Habit in Hollingborne, a sister pub of The Vineyard and The Farmhouse. The 11 Century pub certainly had character, and I was pleased with the service initially, The roast potatoes were good, as were the vegetables. My Sticky Toffee Pudding was very sweet (a good thing), and certainly ensured I received the sugar hit I wanted. Unfortunately though, it took over 20 minutes just to receive the bill, so not one to go to if you are in a rush.
