In a nice small village called “Matfield “ in the middle of the Kent country side , one can find a pleasant and cosy Pub named “ The poet “ . The pub name was inspired by First World War poet Siegfried Sassoon who was born and lived in Matfield . When you see The Poet from outside , it looks like an ordinary cosy and charming 16th century building. The poet comes up with informal yet refined dining with high quality from the local and seasonal . They have a great selection of fine wines too . I went there last Friday with my two adult children . staff were very friendly and informative. We wanted to have cocktails but they don’t serve any . We chose A la carte menu didn’t know they have set...

We had a wonderful family evening at The Poet to celebrate my 50th birthday. The entire staff greeted us warmly and made it a truly memorable and festive night. The recommended cocktail, a raspberry gin sour featuring local brands, was delicious. The menu had an interesting twist on desserts and used locally sourced produce, resulting in fresh and flavorful dishes. It was difficult to choose a favorite element, whether it was the fresh local asparagus with crunchy toppings, the intriguing flavors in the amuse bouche, the succulent pork belly, or the perfectly gooey chocolate fondant with salted caramel popcorn. The serving team was impressive, even managing to keep track of our orders as we...

What a fantastic place! Beautiful old pub in Matfield serving the most delicious food. Service was kind and so professional. Loved the complimentary extras including homemade bread with the most amazing hummus dip, savoury amuse bouche and 2 different sweet ones! All the wines you could get by the glass. Great veggie options, I had heritage tomato with whipped feta that doesn't even cover half of what was in there! Then a vegetable pithivier that came with 3 different sauces and maybe 3 purees! Such a treat and very reasonable prices for what you get. Next time I'll definately try the dessert and cheese menus. They even had 2 different options for kids, and the quality was amazing (we had th...

We had an amazing dining experience at The Poet. The new Chef Lee and manager Tom will definitely continue to elevate the already outstanding reputation of this restaurant. The menu was delicious and featured some unique combinations that set it apart from other restaurants in my opinion. The dishes were executed perfectly and some of the best food we have ever tasted. The service was excellent with a friendly and knowledgeable front of house team. There was a good amount of time between courses and we never felt rushed to finish our meal. Our 3-hour date night here was enjoyable and relaxing, and we are excited to return in the future.

We had a fantastic dining experience at The Poet to celebrate my sister's 50th birthday. Chef Lee and his team prepared an incredibly delicious meal. Some of my personal highlights were the Carrot terrine Amuse Bouche, the Asparagus starter (which was so good that I ended up sharing with my husband), and the Tartiflette side that accompanied the pork belly. Every dish was delightful and it was evident that a lot of effort and skill went into crafting and cooking them. Our entire group had a wonderful evening. A big thank you to the entire team at The Poet!

A foodies dream! We went to celebrate a special occasion and the food was amazing. We tried the whole menu and it was exquisite. The venison and salmon were exceptional. Credit to the chef who clearly knows a thing or two about food!
