Delicious lunch at a cafe in Chislehurst

“8 stars from me!!!! My boyfriend and I came here today for the first time, and can I just say the service was immaculate. Ahmed and Rita made our time here so great they were so lovely and so kind made us feel so welcome we feel like we were regulars but honestly it was our first time. We will definitely be back thank you so much, thank you so much the Chislehurst crew”

“It's like a hidden castle in a cave. Good ambience, excellent service. All the staff are much appreciated.”

“Lovely coffee & cakes. Great to have a hot drink in a cafe (and loos) in the Rec!”

“Meg and Will provided catering for a party, and I cannot speak highly enough about them. The food was genuinely delicious, they looked after us brilliantly, and they even did the washing up! If that experience is anything to go by, I expect this cafe is a real treat.”

“This cafe provided an invaluable service to the community during lockdown and received a letter of thanks from Bromley. I still go there on an almost daily basis to support this business as it supported many of us during the lockdown. Good food with generous ingredients and good coffee. Highly recommended”

“Popped in for a takeaway coffee and was persuaded to buy a pastry as well. Glad I did, as great coffee, excellent almond croissant all served with a warm and friendly smile. Will definitely be going back”

“I have just discovered this really lovely cafe/restaurant on a trip to Chislehurst. My meal was delicious (good old fashioned shepherd's pie with vegetables). The prices were very reasonable and the staff were so friendly and welcoming. In my opinion The Chestnut is one of the best cafes/restaurants in London.”

“Update........ Tryed the fish Friday menu tonight and was delicious, plus you can still order from the bistro menu so plenty of choices including whole lobster and surf and turf. There's a pre book Christmas menu available for the 1st-23rd of December which looks excellent value for money, small deposit required. Great building with plenty of history. Booked bistro for a Sunday roast dinner. Foods good, does get very busy especially for Sunday lunches. Nice bistro and courtyard. Staff amazing! Professional, polite and attentive. Will definitely revisit and try the fish menu available on Friday's. Very limited parking.”

“Great place on the high street for a coffee and dog friendly”

“The staff here are lovely and friendly and the service is relatively quick. After I pick up mine and mum's prescription or when I do the shopping for her, I always go in because come on its Costa! Why make an iced latte or coffee at home when you can come in and get people to make it for you? (it tastes better anyway)”

“Great coffee, great friendly service and great breakfast sandwiches!”

“Very friendly place, popped in for a quick coffee. Will be back to sample the food.”
