A few years ago my whole family were regular visitors to The Dover Castle Inn, but as I’m sure other locals would agree it has been up and down the past few years as the pub has changed hands, then changed hands again, and again (I think, anyway! After a particularly terrible Sunday lunch a couple of years ago we didn’t return, and this meal out was our first visit in quite a long time. Service was very attentive and friendly, and the food was excellent. Very tasty with a varied menu. Pleasantly surprised to see some Asian inspired options available the bang bang cauliflower was great! The only feedback I’d give is that the regular menu could do with some more Vegetarian/Vegan options, altho...

We received a warm greeting upon arrival and were promptly seated at the restaurant. We requested to switch to a more cozy table for our party of five, which was easily accommodated.

We went for a family Sunday roast and I’ve got to say very we were very disappointed in the food. The roast beef was tough and at least two of the meals were only luke warm. We did tell the staff and they were apologetic and gave us two more roasts, but the meat still wasn’t great. The staff did take the cost of the deserts off of our bill as an apology but overall a disappointing meal. I will say the waiters and waitresses were very helpful and polite.

Came to the Dover castle for drinks and asked for an espresso martini and a beer. Staff seemed annoyed at the request of a cocktail. They also apparently had never made one before. The first cocktail was very nice but when asking for the second it was only filled half full and I was made to feel like I shouldn’t have asked for it to be full. Overall nice drinks just shame about customer service.
