Delicious dining in Dartford

“From start to finish, the staff at Côte Brasserie Bluewater were incredibly attentive, sincere, and committed to ensuring their customers had a wonderful experience. When I say everyone, I truly mean everyone! The food was full of flavor, and the chocolate chaud is an absolute must-try. We were also celebrating my son’s birthday, and the team kindly provided a complimentary cake, which made the occasion even more special. A special mention goes to Gheorge, who served us, and Konsta, who gave us such a warm welcome. Congratulations to the manager for keeping this Côte branch a standout among all the others.”

“Needed an early lunch, the restaurant was highly visually appealing, received a warm and bright greeting from Angel. The lunch menu was ideal, good selections and fairly priced. The portions were heartily sized and flavours were delightful. Angel took time with explaining the menu and attentiveness throughout the visit was well balanced.”

“Had a traditional fully cooked breakfast, even with fried bread! Very fast service, good quality ingredients, very clean. Also good value. Happy to recommend.”

“me and my grandparents have been here three times, and every time it is such a lovely time. the staff is really friendly and makes you feel so comfortable. the drinks and cakes are really amazing. i definitely hope to come back here again.”

“Absolutely brilliant pub, everyone is friendly and friendly staff”

“Lovely pub, nice food, great people.”

“Local back street pub. Friendly easy going local pub with pool table. Great jukebox and beers selection.”

“Although only meant to be a temporary venue whilst the original is being updated, the sound quality is excellent. Drinks not ridiculously priced and can buy snacks. Good seating arrangement”

“The guys arrived on time ready to go. The chef’s trousers were unbelievable The pizzas were possibly the best we have ever had. The whole team were nice and friendly and served incredible pizzas. If you want pizza call Helenia I cannot recommend her Odori & Sapporo by Romeo enough. They made a stressful event catering for 70 odd people dead simple.”

“Navy at the bluewater restaurant was so lovely. We really enjoyed our time at the sushi making experience. She was very accommodating to everyone’s needs, friendly and very good at teaching us to make sushi for the first time. Would definitely recommended”

“So happy its open and its 10 times better than before from the service to the food. I got cod & chips mini and a single cod on Saturday and a bottle of onion vinegar, so delish all fresh cooked the chips were scrummy an the batter on the fish was great. Selling lots more things on the menu too. Will be back Thanxxx”

“Super roast dinner on a Sunday afternoon. Was incredibly busy - so you must make a reservation. But still had excellent attentive service from the staff!”

“Thanks for accommodating us on Saturday 15th November. There was roughly 15 of us, on the long table. We had a fantastic time, your staff was fantastic and always helpful. Thanks for a wonderful day.”

“Food was great, and the place has a nice atmosphere. The waitress was lovely, and was very attentive with our large group. Highly recommended!”

“Amazing hidden gem in Dartford. Classy decor, delicious food, fantastic service and all at a reasonable price. The best indian/ Thai restaurant in Kent.”

“Great experience from start to end. Booking a table was simple through their website and third party provider. Very attentive staff. Food was amazing. We had the patatas bravas, whitebait deep fried, paella, beetroot and goats cheese tart. The latter’s flavours and textures were on another level. Would highly recommend. What a gem in Dartford.”

“Such lovely food and lovely service! Kind staff also!”

“Large pub area with big outdoor seating area. There is two halves to the pub and enough seating for evenings and weekends. Prices are standard pub prices and on the expensive side.”

“Decent sized meals decent price. I pretty much always get the same thing. Double burger meal and 20 wings. The service is always real quick and friendly. What I love the most is the fries. Honestly they are the tastiest skinny fries you can get bar none. Just love them so much. Had the 12 piece family bucket. Great value for money. Still just as good as ever. Still great I got 12 wings this time. Think I'll stick with the 20 going forward.”

“Absolutely loved this place! The chicken shawarma wrap was amazing—easily the best I’ve tried. On top of that, the customer service was outstanding. The staff was friendly and welcoming. I’ll definitely be coming back!”

“Having had a few disappointing chinese's of late we thought we would try here based on the many good reviews. Delivery was around 15min later than expected but the food was well worth the small wait, piping hot, generous sized portions & everything ordered was delicious, could not fault this place & definitely have our new go to chinese. Also, the staff we spoke to were lovely, can't wait to sample other dishes.”

“I have just had dinner with a friend at the bubble and squeak in CRAYFORD What a wonderful experience the chairs are lovely and padded and the tables are nice and clean. We both ordered are meal and within five minutes it was being served to use. And the size of the meals were very generous. Very good value for money. The atmosphere of the restaurant was excellent to Can’t wait to go back again. I will also tell all my friends and family about the restaurant.”

“A True Hidden Gem! I can’t believe I just discovered this place—it’s honestly a hidden pearl in the area! The food was amazing, and the prices were super affordable, which is such a rare find these days. What really stood out was how friendly everyone was. The owner made me feel so welcome, like I’d been going there for years. The staff were warm and attentive, and you could tell they actually cared about making sure you had a good time. If you’re looking for great food, great vibes, and prices that won’t break the bank, you have to check this place out. I’ll definitely be back and telling my friends about it too!”

“We have lived in Dartford for 30 years. Often driven past but never realised they do Sunday Lunch. Absolutely delicious ! We will definitely be returning - thank you”

“I come here every time I come to bluewater. Not just for the food but for the amazing people. There’s one manager that just will not stop dancing, I love it! Unfortunately, last week Saturday, a different manager greeted us with a horrible vibe, looked at my kids from top to bottom and telling me make sure the kids sit at the table. You don’t know my kids, if my kids would be walking around the place, I’d understand if she’d come and tell us nicely to get the kids sitting at the table. But a lovely waitress by the name of Mihaela, completely changed the whole experience. She beamed of good vibes. Her customer service was absolutely outstanding! I cannot express how much I appreciated her energy and her joyful attitude. The food was great. But this review is more for Mihaela! Amazing! Thank you Mihaela for spreading cheer!”

“We visited on a Sunday morning, it was quiet and fully stocked. The young lady who served us was friendly and very nice to us. We ordered a mixed box of sushi, plain cucumber and salmon. It was so tasty that we forgot to take photos of the food beforehand, so thats why there's only half of the sushi in the photos. We visit here quite regularly.”

“The steak here is amazing and I had £25 off, so which meant I pay next to nothing for this delicious steak with chips. Full of flavour and not chewy at all and the pub is beautiful by a little stream and great for families. It’s a must try for me”

“Outstanding food served quickly in a lovely garden with great staff. The sort of pub you could happily spend all day in … but sadly we couldn’t.”

“Cracking little pub, incredibly friendly, absolutely amazing service with all genuine authenticity from all of the people in here customers and staff! We had roast turkey, roast lamb, plus all the sides only came to 65 quid including drinks! Definitely recommend this place as a find, you are made to feel so welcome and the service is so hospitable!!”

“Went here last night with our lovely friends. Food was great although could have been hotter. Will definitely be coming back. My husband is in a wheelchair and it was very easy to manoeuvre him in there. Thankyou. They were very helpful to us which makes it easier for me.”
