Had lunch there today. The food was delicious, the service was superb and the music was very cool. Can't wait to eat there again. You had a live blues album on when we were eating. I would love to know the name of it. The raw chocolate cheesecake was stunning!
Beautiful freshly prepared food! Great staff in a chilled atmosphere.....its making my transition from Pescaterian to Vegan a lot easier!!
Totally in love with this place. No words. Just the feel is amazing. There's so much character to this joint. It defines Rochester in a nutshell - cool, artsy, earthy and hemly, most importantly. The food is simply out of this world and the people are even better.
The attention to detail, the individual care of the clients... I don't even feel like a client here. LOVE.
Amazing coffee and mulberry cheesecake. Love the vegan options. Will definitely return. Loved the chilled out vibe of the place too.
Beautiful quality food and coffee. Always enjoy coming here.
Enjoying my cappuccino today at The Seaplane works, Rochester. Great little coffee shop I've just discovered.
Popped in today for the first time, it won't be the last.
Only had a slice of chocolate cheese cake and a yogi tea, but it was delicious and look forward to enjoying more from the menu.
The staff were friendly and welcoming.
Lovely place.
The coffee, the soup, the banana spice square and the service was all ace! I'll definitely be going back �
Had the most amazing salad ever! Complete with a flower! What more could a lady ask for?
Makes a refreshing change to be able to get something healthy for lunch - using organic products with milk alternatives available too. Take away option is brilliant :-)
I love eating here. The coffee's amazing and it's great to be able to stick to my healthy routine somewhere down the high street...at last! I recommend any of the salads and the Thai soup special.
Nice to go somewhere I'm spoilt for choice with options for lunch.x
Really lovely, healthy food and great people serving. Took my sister, whose vegan, here on her trip I've from Canada and she loved it, the chocolate vegan cheesecake was especially good and beautifully present. Great place!
Only had the coffee but it was amazing! We saw some of the food and it looked delicious and fresh! Definitely be coming back to eat soon.
Anywhere that sells vegan food has my vote.
The best and most original food Rochester has to offer !
Excellent food. The chickpea curry accompanied with cauliflower rice was exquisite.
Best coffee in Rochester! I will be back and hope you'll become part of the high street for good.
Awesome find. Fabulous Dahl soup, fresh red juice & mocha with organic cacao & homemade almond milk. Happy friendly staff. Absolutely perfect. Xx
Great place for a lazy Sunday brunch. They have amazing coffee, even though it's out in the countryside it's better than most things you'll find in the City. We had two cups each. And the avocado toast is great as well, very nutty and delicious. Highly recommend.

Staff were lovely. Food was excellent and caters for allergies well.
Lovely earthy kinda place to stop and recharge the batteries :-) Inside is a little quirky in a non-cosmetic kinda way and rings true with the 'less is more' ideology. Plenty of local Seaplane history to view too. Vegan/vegetarian menu with great tea and coffee options. Dog friendly :-))))
Coffee and service is second to none. Always a big smile on the staffs faces and the coffee is delicious. Both me and my partner visit often when we come up to Rochester and it's great. Not tried the food but heard it's cracking.
Upon entering The Seaplane Works the coffee aroma hits you immediately, and then the wonderful smells of home cooked food tickle your senses in a most delightful way.
The decor is pleasant and the seating and tables are of times long past, and with a little imagination you could be in a factory canteen at Shorts Brothers on the magnificent River Medway.
As the first line suggests , the coffee is excellent and really quite strong (even for me). The food is great with plenty of vegan options and where possible Fair Trade produce is used.
The Seaplane Works is in the historic City of Rochester.
Ok coffee..chatty, friendly, place...not tried food yet.My only grump? VERY VERY UNCOMFORTABLE SEATS. OUCH! Tried food ...healthy and tasty. Plenty of veggie type meals . which can be enjoyed by non veggies too. This is worth a visit. Loo down stairs a little difficult to access if you have walking or eyesight problems. Overall points from ten ? Nine .
Simple, period decor but the coffee and limited food are great! One of the few facilities on the High Street that attracts me to this coffee house on a regular business. Oh, and the staff are very courteous too!

The Cafe, "The Seaplane Works," is a gem of a place to visit. Situatated on Rochester High Street near to Crow Lane. You are garenteed of warm welcome and smile. The service is friendly and genuine. The menu is Vegan or Vegetarian and extensive. It is the cafe to settle down and enjoy a great time. A must visit place during a trip to Rochester.
Beth does the best Cappucino’s in Kent. Ben Is horrible to me. His singing is also not great, but he tries; I guess.
The food and ambience make up for Ben.
When I saw the sign outside saying they were using Square Mile's Red Brick I had to go in for a flattie.
I am really glad I did. Really really tasty coffee. I will be back.
Not a veggie or vegan but the food and service was great. The vegan cheesecake (or not) was very tasty. Like the local theme and decor which shows a bit of research was put in to the place.
A great casual place to eat especially if you're vegan or vegetarian. Always good quality fare.
Owned by Billy childish, local musician, artist and poet. Very good coffee and food. Very good coffee and food inspired by clean eating and good produce.
Proper food, friendly faces.
Always love the food in here. Not always sure I'm cool enough to be in there though! 🤭
Delicious menu, beautifully served, friendly staff, and great place for gluten free and vegan meals
Organic creative food. Lovely coffee. Reasonable prices. What's not to like?
Lovely vegetarian food lovely cup of coffee .Lovely place nice atmosphere .Will be returning next time I'm in rochester
