The Pilot

Very nice restaurant on the only desert in the UK . As we are all 60+ we opted for the senior cod n chips, but that was more than enough, still struggled to eat it all. Only given 4* for the food as cod wasn't as white and flaky as would expect and batter soft in places. But overall excellent service and restaurant 👌 dog friendly and very nice.

A very busy local restaurant well known by all and by many who travel great distances for their food. Big portions and cooked fresh. Mainly fish on the menu - but why would you order anything else when visiting this restaurant? There was a great selection of beers and drinks. There was also plenty of seating inside, and a beer garden has great views when the weather is on your side. Staff were friendly and helpful. A great place to have a meal or drink and nice views out to the beach.

The Pilot Inn is a must at least once. Set on the edge of the dungeness desert, this place is quirky, spacious, and always full of people (If you are lucky, some furry, barky friends too). The service is always good and the staff are very friendly and helpful. The food is amazing, The menu is full of all foods for all people, and the bar is loaded with (probably) every drink you could imagine. Once finished, you can take a nice stroll along the shingle beach. You'll need to as the portion sizes are big and perfect. I, for one, will be going back again and again.

Absolutely lovely family pub restaurant. We stumbled on it by accident whilst on holiday and have been back a couple of times. It is extremely well staffed and everyone is so helpful and polite. Tables are cleaned immediately and it is always busy but they do everything they can to find you a table quickly. The food is amazing and the portion sizes are extremely generous. They will happily give you extra plates and cutlery so you can share a meal. This is one of the best pub restaurants that I have visited!

We visited here after being recommended. We had cod and chips and haddock, salad and chips. Both fish were enormous, salad was fresh and the chips were crunchy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. We followed this somehow with the most amazing run and raisin ice-cream and coffee. Rob runs an amazing, traditional fish and chip restaurant, definitely worth visiting.
