Small but Mighty
POMUS
Margate & Folkestone, pomus. co. uk
Set close to Margate Beach, both locals and visitors make themselves at home at Pomus and Pom on the Pier( the baby sister of Pomus), as well as at Pomus’ s Folkestone-based sibling. Focusing on fluidity, all Pomus restaurants specialise in small-plate experiences that shift with the seasons. The inclusive, low-waste menus are paired with award-winning wines and local produce from Whitstable oysters and Cheesemakers of Canterbury to Chapel Down wines with Pomus’ s talented chefs infusing the taste of Kent into each and every small plate, ready for you to share.
FIFTEEN SQUARE METRES
Broadstairs, fifteensquaremetres. co. uk
It’ s time to get cosy with small plates and an even smaller dining experience. Fifteen Square Metres hosts a unique dining space that is a literal 15 square metres in size; perfect for intimate date nights where food is meant to be shared. The menu prides itself on seasonality, with a wide range of cultural cuisines from Japanese to Scandinavian; these small plates, when paired with carefully selected wines, represent a world of flavour.
THE RADNOR ARMS
Folkestone, radnorarmsfolkestone. co. uk
If it’ s grazing, snacking and comfortable dining you are after, then look no further. The Radnor Arms in Folkestone has a welcoming feel and a selection of sharing platters and bar snacks, perfect for a summer evening by the sea. The menu weaves together local produce from across Kent with a touch of Southeast Asian flavour. Local ingredients are sourced from only a few miles away from the Folkestone Trawlers at Folkestone Harbour and the restaurant’ s very own farmstead, Mill House.
