| Thackeray's,
Tunbridge Wells Restaurants
One of the more
celebrated restaurants in Tunbridge Wells, Thackeray's is building a
growing reputation for the food and ambience in the stylish yet
understated interior. The restaurant, private dining rooms and bar are set
in a restored grade two listed building, perfectly in keeping with the
genteel surroundings of old Tunbridge Wells.
Richard Phillips is the
beating heart of the business and as co-proprietor and chef he has had a
huge influence on the menu, which could be described as 'modern French'.
In common with most good Kent restaurants Thackeray's makes a real effort
to use the best and freshest local ingredients where possible.
The presentation and obvious
quality of the food are well matched by the sophisticated but genial
surroundings. Three courses from the set lunchtime menu (Menu du Jour)
comes in at just under £20. You can probably eat just as well for a
similar price in several other restaurants in the county, but you'll
struggle to find somewhere to rival the overall dining experience at the
same price.
The lunchtime menu included
(at the time of writing) Roast Quail as a starter, Rosette of Bream
with a Mandarin Brulée to follow. There is a good wine list and
sensibly for a lunchtime meal some vintages can be purchased by the glass
or half bottle. Check out the website for the current full Menu du Jour
and A La Carte Menus and wine list. You can also make a reservation on
line.
