Whitstable icon! Insta-tastic storefront. Seafood to die for in the quaint setting of your grandma’s front room. The Offy across the road is quite handy as it’s BYOB.

Beautiful restaurant on the seafront, not cheap, but might be just the ticket for a celebratory lunch or dinner.
Please book ahead as reservations will be a must in season.

Our only Michelin stared restaurant is a short cab ride away in nearby Seasalter. Reservations are hard to get and essential. The ambitious can walk there along the seafront. (Approx 2 miles)

Have only had an excellent breakfast there, I believe there are just 2 outdoor tables, but judging by the takeaway queues it's more than just breakfast. Very close to the sea near West beach.

It's name on the window is Thirst Love but for some reason AirBnB calls it the Onse cafe. Great coffee and sandwiches very close to our house.

Closest pub to our house. Has outdoor seating. The Fountain has experienced a bit of a renaissance since the nearby New Inn raised its game. Hipster vibe and a fair amount of local reprobates make this a fun stop.
