Stade Court Lounge - Shepway

We stayed at the hotel so though we would try the restaurant, we were a group of 8. The menu initially looked quite good....then our food came out, 3 meals had to be sent back, as were undercooked/overcooked. Whilst the staff were helpful and money was taken of our bill, it was poor food for the price you pay. I wouldn’t eat here again.

I booked a last-minute deal on Groupon. Despite having a limited selection of dishes, it was still good value for money.

We attempted to have afternoon tea, but were dismayed by the low-class customers. We promptly departed. Avoid this place at all costs.

The hotel now has a new outdoor terrace with a beautiful view of the beach. We enjoyed a cream tea in the sunny weather, and the staff were excellent despite the busy crowd. We have already booked another cream tea, and for a birthday celebration, we have also reserved an unlimited Prosecco cream tea. There's nothing better than enjoying this experience on the lovely veranda outside. A must-visit if you are in Hythe.

I had lunch with three family members. We were made to feel welcome and our Italian waiter had a pleasing personality and added to our enjoyment of the meal. I had chicken, two others sea bass and another steak. All of us were pleased with the presentation of the food,including starters, which we all enjoyed. We had a table with sea views but on the day we did not see much because of the storm raging outside. Unfortunately the restaurant could do little about the weather but they compensated with their hospitality.
