Minnis Bay Bar & Brasserie

The food was beautiful and well presented! Lovely atmosphere, cosy and calm with excellent service! Only thing I could ask for is more veggie options as they seem limited for the dinner menu. 100% will be back again

An unexpected Jewel in the Crown at Minnis Bay. Only a short drive from Herne Bay and to be met with unrivalled views across the North East Kent sea.
The service was perfect and the food was excellent value.
This is most definitely one of Shepherd & Neame's more successful pub restaurants where they have got it right!
Well done Shepherd & Neame. Paul F

Excellent. Great staff team, Coffee and Cakes. Could not have asked for more.

We popped in for the first time ever (no I don't know why not in all the other times we've visited the bay!) and were not disappointed. It was a bright sunny morning, although windy and a bit cold. We needed a warm up and refreshments.

The ground floor was quite full, we asked just for Coffee and Cake, the staff member at the bar directed us to bar seats or upstairs to the Bay View seating that was all but empty. And yes it was a great view across the bay and more.

It didn't take long for the Coffee and Scones, Cream and Jam to arrive. Delivered by a friendly and engaging young man. And it was very good too.

We loved the team. We loved the friendly team and atmosphere. And we certainly will make this a stop on future visits for sure. Gotta check out the Food menu.

Thank you all.. Bravo.

Incredible food! The photos can't do it justice, but the taste was amazing. Loads of vegan options - the vegan duck is really tasty, as was the bread and dips.
The staff were really friendly despite being very busy, and the iced coffees were perfect on a hot day. The position with the sea view was just gorgeous, and the bathrooms were Very clean. The best thing about Birchigton

Cant wait to go back! The staff are lovely, the food was good, the venue is beautiful. Great place to visit any time but when the suns out and you sit on the terrace upstairs you feel like you are on holiday without getting on a plane 😎👍went again last Friday and had the breakfast, all good!😜👍🏻

What a wonderful place. Sea views. Great food. Friendly service. Had a great walk from Minnis bay to Recover and back. Free parking. What's not to like.

Good food, great prices and 180 degree of sea and sky view. Wonderful place to view the sunset. Lamb stew too salty. Fish and chips very good. Chicken main dish is good. Lobster bisque starter with seaweed butter and nice bread great. Good service too.

Been here many times. Most recently just prior to Christmas 2023, had a warming hot drink with a friend, we sat outside as the day wasn’t too chilly. Have sat inside too. In the past have eaten there too. Always delicious food, clean + friendly staff.

Parking nearby either in the car park or along the road.

It's an amazing place to chill out after cyckling on the Viking trail. Great food and the most stunning view!
The bonus is an indoor soft play area for kids if the weather spoils the mood!

Visited Minnis Bay Bar and Brasserie a number of time. Once had lunch which was great and always pop in for a drink when we’re down at Minnis Bay for the day. The cocktail menu is fabulous!

This place serves up some lovely tasty meals they really do..with lovely views over the beach.
Recommend the Hake for fish lovers.
Price wise very reasonable only one small quibble the service was a little slow.. but having said that they were busy! Definitely going again!

Staff were happy, friendly.Service was fortress. The menu inviting and each of our five meals were presented and delicious to eat. Thank you . It was a pleasure to pay for a meal we enjoyed.

Very clean place, excellent service and you have a gorgeous view of the seafront. Whenever you go to Birchington on Sea you have to visit this place. It is breathtaking.

Booked in advance for a Sunday lunchtime and requested a table outside. There were a few spots of rain late morning, and when we arrived they had kept a table both inside and outside for us. Service was very good and the food was yummy. Simple but well executed menu, and a great spot right by the water. Book in advance to avoid disappointment (some people were turned away for food when we were there - a Sunday lunchtime - because they didn’t have a booking). I’d definitely go back again if in the area!

Parking easy £1 an hour, great walk along the beach then back for some pukka grub ,two nice plates of food ,beer etc for just shy of £30
table service, amazing.
food ,amazing .
cleanliness ,amazing.
Deffo go again
Keep up the great work 💪

Popped in to the Wedding Showcase to see the upstairs function suite on Sunday its great for about 60 for a sit down meal and the view is super. Stopped for lunch which was lovely Chicken Schnitzel and a Meatopia pizza followed by Eton mess. Yum!!

Stunning place, beautiful setting, incredibly clean pub on the sea front, lovely staff and probably one of the best meals I've eaten in many years. Love it absolutely a must on the tick list if going to birchington.

Brought the grand children and had a wonderful lunch good food and lots of room with a large table outside enjoy the drinks and ocean views the staff was helpful and courteous and smiling

Really lovely delicious food. Main courses tended more towards meat dishes so had two starters instead, which was plenty. Service really good and lovely sunset views.

I, along with my parents, Had the pleasure today of dining at the Minnis, it was last minute and we were welcomed to come and ask for Dee when we arrived. Every member of staff we're outstanding. All polite, funny and polished. The food was outstanding. Attention to detail and care was outstanding. And I must say, to have my table wiped own between courses is very seldom seen, but gratefully received. I fully recommend this wonderful little gem. I will be visiting again very soon
THANK YOU X
