The Four Fathoms is under new management. We had Sunday lunch in the bar area today with our four legged friend. Stuffed chicken was cooked to order and the lamb was very succulent and tasty. If your are after a Sunday lunch this will not disappoint. The Organic Chardonnay was very nice too.
Had a wonderful Sunday lunch here! The staff are incredibly friendly, decor is stunning and the roast dinner did not disappoint! Kids pasta portion was huge too and so good! There is a garden area if you want outdoor dining. A two minute walk from the beachfront, definitely worth a visit if you are on holiday in Herne Bay x
Lovely staff, owner was so nice & cheerful, good atmosphere. Very tender steak both rib eye & fillet! Starters v nice. All well presented. Wine choices great & prices competitive. We'll be back!
On arrival to what appears to be just another pub on a corner you are met with a fresh and modern interior. It's no micropub but the bar area is a bit of a squeeze they serve local ales, larger and stouts as you would hope and a large selection of spirits, prices for a drink are as reasonable as any other good pub.
I went as part of a party of 6. We were shown through to a restaurant area at the rear that was warm and as welcoming as the main bar area. My 1st and only grumble is that they have bench seats which are far too low for table.
The menu & food.
The menu is select it had a couple of options per dietary style (vegetarian, fish and meat) I sampled the delights of the confit of duck spring rolls which were packed full of meat and flavour and presented in an appealing way. For mains I had tried jack fruit, not because I was trying to be a trendy vegan but as it sounded amazing, (which it was)a large portion was presented that again was packed full of flavour and something of a rarity extremely filling. Desert selection is again refined to about 8 dishes catering for most tastes, I had some sorbets which were very nice and refreshing.
We were lucky as there was entertainment provided by means of a band called 6 shades of grey, very good band which we could hear on the restaurant area without it being intrusive to the conversation.
Overall amazing food, friendly staff and atmosphere, limited menu that's worth reading before you go to check you would eat some thing.
Came here specifically to try the food after stumbling across it online and wasn't disappointed. Very friendly welcome and service, and delicious well presented food at good prices. Local beers on offer as well. Plenty of attention to detail in the decor/crockery as well! Would happily visit again.
wow! maybe the best restaurant I have tried in the UK? (And I have been to many!). Great friendly service, Michelin star (should have at least one!) food, a pub full of details, loved everything! It's a must if you love food!
We wanted to hold a small lunch party for my parents 50th wedding anniversary in the Herne Bay area. John (owner) was polite, courteous, attentive from the word go. The attention to detail was amazing and the work he put into the buffet was outstanding. The whole family had a great day and we couldn't have asked for more. Thank you again to everyone at the Four Fathoms we really appreciate you making it so special for my parents.
Haven't been here for a while but the food was great, the waitresses were friendly and attentive and there was a good choice of wine which kept me happy. Great signature dessert dish - sticky toffee pudding with a twist! Try it!
Can't recommend Four Fathoms enough complete turnaround from how the old pub here used to be. Food is amazing and service is always friendly warm and relaxed home vibe. Have celebrated both mine and my mum's birthday here will no doubt be back again in the future. Must experience if you are in Herne Bay.
Lovely experience ! Although it was a mussels night, the lovely waitress managed to let us order a burger that was HUGE ! The pub is beautiful and the people are really nice.
Also ordered two stouts that were really good !
