Best Contemporary British Restaurants in Brenchley

It had been quite a while since my last visit to the Ivy Chelsea, and as soon as I walked in, I was enveloped by its familiar warmth and charm. The ambience was just as beautiful as I remembered. However, I must admit I was disappointed they had altered the dark salad recipe; it seemed somewhat lacking, with only a small amount of duck included. On the positive side, the service was attentive and professional. Apart from my duck salad, everything else was exquisite—the succulent chicken was perfectly cooked, and the wine selection was exceptional, enhancing the meal beautifully. Overall, it was a delightful experience, aside from that one misstep with the salad.

It is a fabulous, airy, light venue - the menu has plenty for all, and the prices allow regular visits or treats - we sat at the bar, looked after by some wonderful people, a tall handsome gent with a magnetic smile and a personality to match his stature plus a petit lady who makes a mean cocktail short on ice if ice is not your thing - do go, but leave space for me please x

We are really appreciate from the service. Thank you Martha specially for all her service and help

As always the Ivy Royal Tunbridge Wells was extremely welcoming good atmosphere attentive staff great food. Would always recommend

We loved our afternoon tea! We’re both a little fussy and the staff always cater for our needs (swapping sandwiches to ones we prefer with no issues). The new layout is lovely, my only concern is the tables are not as spacious as they were previously and the gap between tables isn’t too big, it would be nice to have a little more room as previously (before renovations) I believe the table size and space around was one of the best things about the gallery. We will always re visit though as it is still such a good experience.
