Gillingham Restaurants

Firstly, due to weather and the chance of a lift, we arrived an hour early! Not a problem, as long as you realise the kitchen does not open for half an hour, was the reaction. So we proceeded to order drinks, an entree of sourdough bread and settle down with the menu. Actually this is far from our first visit, it’s the second this year and we have been a least once a year for special occasions since they opened. Fish at 55 is the sort of restaurant where I will definitely try something for the first time, knowing that it will only be my personal taste, and not a problem with the food, if I do not like it. My wife and I both love the interesting, and sometimes novel to us, combination and presentation of the fish/seafood, with exciting sauces/dressings. My wife decided to select from the Set Lunch menu, while I, because a starter from the specials board caught my eye, went A La Carte. Both meals were faultless, and the Set menu really is excellent value, while I would class the A La Carte as very good value. My reason for this is we both had identical deserts, and mine was in effect nearly twice the price of my wife’s. That being said, the total bill was still quite acceptable . As always the service was very good, as we were the only 2 covers for most of our time there, our food was served remarkably fast, but even when busy we know their timing is very good. One small negative point, and this applies to many good restaurants , the selection of non alcoholic drinks is very limited, which is a little disappointing to a tee totaller.

amazing first time experience here, was so beautiful inside, the food was incredible, the staff incredible and one of the best places in Rochester to eat

The Kiki was a 10/10 experience, staff were amazing and attentive. The drinks were perfect and so was the food, it really lived up to the standards! I’ll be coming back again and would definitely recommend💕

Fabulous Food & Service! We were well looked after from the moment we arrived to the moment we left. Food was delicious and Kent's Chapel Down wine is on the menu too! Very nice family meal
