THE TOLL BRIDGE
The Meat Shack , Folkestone Harbour
15-hour slow-cooked brisket beef served in a fluffy brioche bun with handmade coleslaw , pickle-on-astick and a tub of The Meat Shack ’ s famous meaty gravy for dipping . Wash it down with a craft beer and you ’ ll be happily satisfied with not much room left other than to enjoy the chilled out vibes of the Harbour Arm , soak in the sun and sea air , and perhaps catch some live music outdoors with friends when you visit .
That Burger , Folkestone Harbour
Delicious juicy burgers from all time classics to oneoff creations . ‘ The Cheesy Pig ’ has to be one of That Burger ’ s most popular offerings . It consists of a secret-recipe smoky sauce and bacon cooked in maple syrup combined with locally sourced beef patties that are made fresh every day and topped with crispy fresh lettuce , sliced tomato and double cheese . A favourite at Folkestone Harbour Arm from the very beginning , the team at That Burger were part of the original bunch of traders put together for the first season on the harbour . Since that early step into the unknown , but with a lot of pop-up restaurant experience under their belts , That Burger has become a mainstay for many of the Harbour Arm ’ s regular visitors .
Pork & Co ., Folkestone Harbour
Beasts of the Kentish street food scene for many years , Pork & Co . have returned with their outrageously popular slow-cooked , hand-pulled pork , fried chicken and much more to Folkestone Harbour Arm ’ s Goods Yard . Pulled pork at its best .
Portenio , Folkestone Harbour
A new addition to the Folkestone Harbour Arm with incredible views across the ocean and towards White Cliffs Country . Bringing a taste of Argentina to the Kentish coast , Portenio prides itself on its beef steaks cooked the Argentine way on an Argentine grill . Whether bloody , juicy or cooked you will not be disappointed when sinking your teeth into a steak here . Enjoy glorious mixed grills to share with prime sirloin steak with chorizo , black pudding and more , or opt for the grilled catch of the day with veggies .
FINE DINING OVER FLAMES
The Toll Bridge , Sandwich
Bold flavoursome BBQ flavours underpinning an imaginative menu led by a Michelin-starred chef ; a smoky addition to the Sandwich dining scene that has been taking Kent ’ s tastebuds to new heights since 2021 ; plentiful , flavoursome , moreish and too good to stop . The house favourite comes in the form of signature pork ribs : five-hour smoked ribs rubbed with a sweet paprika recipe and finished in apple juice , tomato and honey . Other dishes include a three-bone lamb rack , Texas-style brisket ( smoked for nine hours ) and a 10oz ribeye steak grilled over open coals and served with black peppercorn sauce and grilled vegetables .
