Culpeper's Chilston Park - Maidstone

Food is delish, Service and staff even better. Steak and Peppercorn sauce...to die for. Second time here and we will be back again. Thank you for an amazing stay and dinner

Despite the limited choices, we found a couple of items to order. The crab starter was tasty but the portion size was lacking. The slow cooked pork cheeks we ordered were flavorful and tender, but the accompaniments of sweet potato puree, baby leeks, and caramelized gala apples were disappointingly sparse and should have been listed as garnishes. We also discovered that some items on the bill were priced higher than what was advertised on both the meal menu and wine menu. After bringing these discrepancies to the attention of the staff, the bill was corrected. While the staff were courteous and accommodating, the overall experience left much to be desired. It was clear why we were the only diners in the large dining room that day.

The menu offered for both dinner and breakfast had a great variety of options to suit all tastes. The chef himself is very friendly, welcoming, and creative with his presentation.

Sunday lunch today….great service. Interesting to talk to a staff member who was very pleasant and knowledgable about the group ethics and hotels…..sorry I didn’t get your name. Starter was chosen but were offered an alternative which was absolutely great. Smoked salmon and caviar was a lovely starter. Roast beef was well done for hubby….and as it comes for me…lovely but knife didn’t cut it! Dessert was cheesecake and fruit for me….topped with meringue ….gave meringue to hubby. He had chocolate mousse …looked lovely. Coffee and petit fours for him. House champagne was chilled. Thank you for your attention to detail.

The food and service at this restaurant were excellent. We tried the cod dish and it was delicious. The menu also offers good options for non-meat eaters. Our food was served promptly.
