The Ambrette Canterbury

If this isn't the best restaurant in Canterbury, it must be close. We returned to Canterbury and so to the Ambrette as we enjoyed it so much on our last visit. In fact this time our hotel choice was driven by proximity to the restaurant. We enjoyed it just as much this time. The food is outstanding, and quite different from anywhere else with the innovative use of spices. My pork belly was excellent, and don't miss the Masala mash. My wife chose the pigeon starter and aubergine main, and thoroughly enjoyed them. Good service, especially recommending the dessert wine, and music from a violin and piano. A most enjoyable evening.

Perfect place to have a birthday meal with family. Food, service was first class. Lots of special touches that we weren't expecting lead to a great evening. One of our party is vegan and they catered for her no problem...would definitely recommend and will be going again soon

Thank you to all the staff, the waiters and the staff we never saw i.e. the chef and his wonderful team for making our 40th Anniversary Meal so special. We even had Happy Anniversary piped onto a dessert with mango sauce by our waiter. It was a very special thing to do.

I am unable to comment on my visit to The Ambrette. The reason for this is that the restaurant does not open until 5.30pm but I had managed to book a table with your website for 4.30pm!!!

Excellent, central location in Canterbury. Delicious, innovative food. A little on the expensive side, but well worth it!
