The Brasserie On The Bay - Dover

We used our gourmet card and were told we had to have the 3 course meal but they omitted to tell us we can only use the gourmet card on the main course even though it was a 3 course set menu. They therefore charged us for dessert and starter. We have never experienced this before after 10 years of using the Gourmet Club card and felt cheated.I had the cheese as dessert and it was so dry it was inedible.

I took a party of 11 golfers for a private dinner at The Brasserie on the Bay and was fortunate to be looked after by a delightful girl studying at St Andrews University. The staff had sent a menu in advance and so all courses had been pre-booked. Great that there were no errors but the system of allocating selections to each person worked well for our 70+ age group. Starters all good but the main courses were outstanding, especially rump of Romney Marsh lamb, gnocchi, pan roasted grey mullet and the star of the night, an incredible chateaubriand. The beef was medium rare as requested, very tender and served in huge quantities. This was a very good meal and everyone also enjoyed their Full English Breakfast with fried bread on request and superb local sausages. Fully recommended and our party will be booking for 2017 as soon as possible.

We have been here a number of times and I cannot fault any aspect of it. The food is wonderful, the service excellent and the surrounding area magnificent.Although the Brasserie is not easy to find it will really be worthwhile when you arrive. You need to go through a toll, but if you are going to the Brasserie on the Bay you will not have to pay.There is a 2 or 3 course lunch menu which is very reasonably priced,and although the drinks are fairly expensive you can purchase a bottle of wine from about £18. As a vegetarian I don't often find an interesting choice on menus but this place is the exception. I cannot recommend it highly enough.

This secluded location is within the Princes Golf Club in Sandwich. Access is via a private road, where you need to tell nice man on gate that you are going to dine otherwise you are charged to enter the area. The road winds round the course and turns along the seafront of the English Channel at Sandwich Bay. Plenty of parking. The Brasserie is at the back of the building overlooking the golf course. We went on a Sunday for lunch which was either set menu or bar food. We went for the set menu at 17.50 for 2 courses or 23.50 for 3 courses. I had fresh mackerel to start which was very nice, followed by roast beef cooked to your taste, with Yorkshire pudding, roast potatoes and veg. The portions are big so unfortunately we never got to the sweets. Staff were pleasant and efficient, surroundings are modern and there is a log burned which I guess is lit in winter. I would have no hesitation in going back and am sure I will a great experience an hidden gem!There hotel attached and the venue can be hired for weddings or special occasions.

Every course was delicious. The food was exceptional and would highly recommend. Service was excellent and the staff know the menu well. Definitely worth a visit.
