Townleys
at Albion House, Ramsgate
Although still comparative newbies to the
hospitality business, Ben and Emma have shown
that hard work and determination can achieve
results in the hotel industry. They have moved
up the ranks of hotels in Kent and have, for a
period of 18 months or so, held the top spot on
TripAdvisor in Kent. Their focus is now squarely
on making their mark in the food business.
With head chef, Ryan Whitlock at the helm, they
have a young man of prodigious talent, boundless
energy and a seemingly bottomless passion for
food. While ascribing to sourcing produce locally,
Ryan's approach seeks to ensure the quality of
produce is achieved above anything else.
Townleys will be focusing on opening their doors
to a wider local audience and getting Ramsgate
and neighbouring towns to enjoy a more casual
dining approach throughout the day in their
unique, Georgian building. Breaking the mould of
the two- or three-course lunch offering, the team
are looking to make brunch the must-have meal
of the day, available between 11am and 4pm.

Following a week-long trip to Ireland, Ryan
and Ben sampled food on offer in a multitude
of restaurants in Cork and Galway, observing
a pattern which saw good fayre enjoyed in
relaxed atmospheres; food presented with four
or five key components, with sublime flavours,
but with a sense of fun also. The inspiration
drawn from this trip to the Emerald Isle will
give rise to more relaxed dishes accompanied
by good music and attentive staff at Townleys,
helping you to kick back and relax in the
company of good friends.
The Brits invented brunch apparently, and they
also contributed a reasonable amount to the
world of alcoholic tipples. The weekends and
a great ‘deal of the week’ will now be about
celebrating these triumphs and what better way
to do this while gazing out to sea, Prosecco
or Bloody Mary in hand while sampling tasty
wholesome new creations in Townleys’ laid
back spaces.
Watch this brunch space….
