“ We went for lunch on our wedding anniversary, food and service were excellent, pub was quiet at lunchtime, but I feel the service would be the same if busy or not. We were made so welcome and a lovely little touch of a card and an extra dish after our meal. Highly recommended. ”
“ The quality of the food was genuinely exceptional. The place deserved to be much busier than it was. We had the beef rump and sea bass - both worthy of a top-notch restaurant. Dark chocolate delice for dessert was beautifully rich and, again, superb. Surprisingly great all round ”
“ Perfect Sunday lunch with friends. Easily Faversham' s best Sunday lunch and the competition is steep! The starter of whipped cod roe with pickled vegetables was so clever and just delicious. The mussels were equally good. The roast beef was perfectly cooked with roast potatoes that had that straight from the oven crunch. Creative selection of vegetables, including red cabbage and cauliflower cheese. Scrummy desserts and cheese board. Thoughtful selection of wines, we loved the Douro and Sangiovese. This is the upper end of Faversham price wise. Worth every penny. Kim's team are so accommodating and the service and attention we recieved from our waiter Daniel was faultless. Everything about The Phoenix is delightful. ”

“ We celebrated our Sapphire Wedding Anniversary there today. They had put a lovely card and some lavender on the table. ( Nice touch ) The food was very well presented and tasted delicious. The best roast out I have ever had ! Dessert came out on a plate with Happy Anniversary on in chocolate. Little touches meant a lot to us. Highly recommend! ”
“ A real community pub with an art class in progress when we arrived. I had the most delicious fish and chips - I can not remember having any better. There were also excellent tasty gluten free options for my wife. ”
“ We celebrated my Dad's 80th birthday at the Phoenix last night and were very glad that we did. Definitely a contender for the best food in Faversham against some strong competition. My Mum raved about the pork with kale which she said was the best she'd had in years. Soup, fish pies and fish and chips were also top quality and thoroughly enjoyed. And the atmosphere, friendly service and overall experience made it a perfect evening and a very happy birthday for my Dad. ”
