The Star, Hungry Horse

Hadn't been here for years and glad we picked this place as the food was really nice. As far as pub food goes it was well cooked, I had the mixed grill and the steak came out perfectly rare. It was quite busy but seemed to all running smoothly and guests were served pretty quickly with a conveyor belt consistency. I have a picky ten year old who devoured the Mac and cheese (impressive anywhere if he eats a lot). Customer service was decent but can't say there was anything that stood out as exceptional or in the realms of excellence but good I think fairly sums it up. Lacks a good front of house person if anything, someone to guide customers / manage diners etc. Atmosphere wasn't great but the venue can only control so much. Parents not parenting their kids and lots of screams and loud outbursts did affect the atmosphere to some extent. As a parent I don't feel bad for saying this as manners and respect seemed to of failed with the family we were sat opposite to. The outdoor area looks like a great spot for days with better weather and had a few heated seating areas / huts for the colder evenings as well as an outdoor bar area for a quicker service . I'll definitely return here for the garden next summer if not before. Nice and clean on the whole, can't complain about plates , glasses or cutlery or any horizontal surface but lots of food marks on the wood panelling next to the tables that could do with a clean. For somewhere that seems pretty decent otherwise it is a bit of a letdown that could easily be got on top of with a quick wipe up. I'll definitely return here in future and would recommend to anyone looking for a decent steak and a pint or just a bit of your typical pub grub.

Our first visit in a good long while... but it didn't disappoint!! Food was great with the starters only taking about 10mins to come out, tasty chicken triple nibbles. Followed by what has to be one of the best combo meals!! I couldn't even finish it!! Not through lack of trying either!! We left completely stuffed and only spending around £50 for the two of us. Very friendly and knowledgeable staff. Highly recommended

Stunning. The breakfast burrito was absolutley mouth watering. I didnt want it to end. So impressed. I am very judgy about breakfasts but this was very special. And so reasonably priced.

The food prices are very affordable at the star. You get so much food and hence why you should visit when you are very hungry, your money will go a long way, I think! It seemed very popular among locals in the area. The customer service was okay, not outstanding. We may visit again to try the breakfast menu.

Very nice place with good menu. There is a special meal deals every day. My favorite choice there is Jumbo Fish & Chips. There is a children palyground outside, my son loves to go there. Every time, when we visit Gillingham, we go for a good meal to The Star.
