Best KPortal Reviews
The Full English restaurant may be small, but it offers a cozy, familiar atmosphere and serves delicious, generously portioned dishes. Highly recommended!
First time visiting this cafe, after reading the reviews we decided to give it a go,
Food was tasty but when it’s described as a small breakfast it is…. Extremely small,
Apart from that the staff where very friendly and attentive and cafe was very clean.
One of the best breakfasts I've ever had! Every item was good quality. Clean plate of food, not oily like some can be . Lovely friendly people running the Cafe .. Shame we live in London or this would be a regular place for us! Thank you from the people who asked about the back stairs ????
The staff were very friendly and did their best to cater to any food needs. The food itself was delicious and and the cafe was clean and homely. If we visit Folkestone again, we would 100% come back here.
Lovely staff and a great menu.
A bit of a del boy theme going which added to the atmosphere
Good food and ok prices
Loved the place
Another fabulous breakfast with... drum roll please, APPLE pie dessert, yes now available, hot or cold Apple or Cherry pie with ice cream/custard.. thank you.
Best greasy spoon in town. Delicious breakfast at a good price. Highly recommend ????
Sunday 20th March 10:15 – the three amigos
OK, so it wasn’t mad max thunder drome, but three men entered and only one man did it. To that end, kudos to the man, the myth, the legend that never blew chunks – but came bloody close ???? – Mathew Banks, for successfully taking down the £19.95 special.
It all started as a little harmless fun really, hopefully some of you can relate? ~2am, not being able to sleep one night, and YouTube’s algorithm suggest a beard vs food clip. As thoughts of: ...why oh why do I want to watch some northern lad eat a ridiculous amount of food? And yet ya sub conscious takes over, and before you realise what’s just happened you have already clicked play only to find, actually... this is really a lot better viewing than EastEnders! What has my life become? :)
...and then the slippery slope led us (the three amigos) to the full English in Folkstone on that fateful day. I say fateful, as for me personally, the only way I could entice the kids to allow Dad to make a complete spectacle out of himself, was to suggest – Yeah, of course Folkstone will have penny arcade! WRONG!! So, after a post breakfast trip down the potholed road to Dymchurch, the public WC and its absence of bleach (still, ‘something’ managed burn my nostrils, and) subsequently stirred my guts, which ensured – at least some of what I’d just consumed exited my body via one end or the other...
However! I digress... This is not that story. This is the story of how Mat vanquished “The Full English” and how this review left us all thinking – I’m not doing that again!
OK.
Booking – this was super easy. Mat (the champion) booked us all in a couple of weeks out. No problem, phone call, done.
Staff – super friendly, although none of them had seen anyone take on and defeat the challenge. Given one of them had worked there about a year the – what are we doing!? – thoughts were elevated at this point.
Food – There is absolutely nothing wrong here. Ian opted for (allegedly) extra mushrooms. I had extra beans (think the equivalent of a full tin) and Mat took the tomatoes. None of us was brave enough to chance the black pudding, coz well... when its good, its OK, but when its bad, come on, it’s a hockey puck! Still we needn't have worried, as none of us had any complaints. For me personally, the fired slice took me out the action. Completely. So, if anyone is thinking about it... you buy ya ticket, you roll ya dice, but will you swap out ya black pudding, the hash browns, the fungus, the fried slice, those tinned tommies or just take it all as it comes?
Still, the point is, the place is top draw, twenty quid is well worth it, chips (what place do they have on a breakfast I ask you?) don’t feature, and all the ingredients and cooking of the same were top notch and thoroughly recommended by all of us.
Again, personally speaking, I intended to “sandwich up” with the snags, but the pressure got the better of me and I just “took erm down” along with the mountain of beans I had on my plate, so whilst you won’t have any issues with the constituent parts – the sheer volume of food gets very real, very fast.
Final comment - Give it a go. It’s definitely worth £20 quid, and if ya not a local yokel, it’s a cheap day out on a lazy Sunday afternoon isn’t it? Go on... do it!
