Marc-Pierre’s Kitchen

A polished seafood spot that still knows exactly who the real VIP is. This is one for when the walk turns into a proper outing and you want somewhere you can both settle in properly — no hovering, no rushing, just a table where the dog is part of the plan.

Expect seriously good, seasonal fish and shellfish — the kind that’s landed fresh and treated with quiet confidence rather than fuss. Think classic seafood dishes, daily catches and rich, coastal comfort plates, all rooted in the best of Kentish produce. The setting leans more “evening by the harbour” than quick stop, with a relaxed, low-lit feel that lets you properly unwind.

It’s the kind of place where the dog can stretch out under the table while you take your time — because when the seafood’s this good, there’s no reason to rush.
