    I came with 8 members of my family, including my 2 year old grandson, for a pre-Christmas meal and was so impressed by the attention of the team ensuring little one was happy which made a good time for all of us. The food was excellent in a lovely atmosphere. We will definitely be returning!

    Sadly the food was well below the quality we expect from the Print House. We had loin of pork. The meat was plentiful and ok but was cold, the roast potatoes were lamentable - hard, tasteless undercooked. The vegetables were adequate. The starter and dessert were acceptable but were let down by the main, especially the roast potatoes. Shame, and not a cheap meal. Must do better.

    Lovely venue, lovely staff, the young blond lad (apologies I don’t get his name but he was new) was particularly great. Well done that man!

    Interiors colourful and comfortable. Excellent waiter who brought us our drinks by the fire. Female manager/ owner perhaps a little too attentive- flapping about lighting, smoke from fire, could she take a chair etc etc...we were just there to relax! Plus not ideal having a staff meeting right behind us on a Friday eve in the dining room. Food ok- not sure we'd return though. Shame-we had had high hopes!

    Went to the Print House on recommendation and wasn’t disappointed at all. Lovely welcome and really enjoyed the ambience. Food was really tasty and promptly served. Staff with personalities was a real bonus. We’ll be back for sure. A welcome addition to Tenterden 👍
