Over dit restaurant

Goed voor speciale gelegenheden
Charmant
Juweeltje in de wijk

The Poet offers an informal yet refined dining experience in the heart of the Kent countryside. Set in a charismatic 16th century building, diners can expect food of the highest standards, made using the finest local and seasonal produce and lovingly prepared by a small team of chefs led by Head Chef & Director Lee Adams.

In addition to the food, we offer a selection of fine wines, quirky cocktails, and have a collection of over 25 craft gins available.

World War I poet Siegfried Sassoon lived in Matfield and is the inspiration behind our name. Sassoon was awarded the Military Cross for "conspicuous gallantry" and later won acclaim for his writing. We're pretty sure he would have loved our food too!

A warm welcome awaits diners from General Manager and Director Tom Haacke and his team. We look forward to seeing you!

Please be aware we do not cater for the vegan diet.

Late cancellations - £20 per person.

Tuesday Night Steak Night
Meerdere datums beschikbaar
At The Poet we use an array of techniques in order to give the best possible flavour and texture to different cuts of beef sourced from all over Britain. Our in-house dry-ageing chamber holds varying cuts of different ages, giving us flexibility with our menus and pricing, to curate an experience well worthy of a visit. Seasonal offerings such as aged wild boar loin or venison haunch, could be sharing a menu with aged Scotch beef sirloin, or smoked hanger steak, all cooked in our 300-degree charcoal oven. The steaks on offer are served alongside seasonal vegetables, local potato preparations and sauces tailor-made to complement the flavours of the steaks available on that day. Prices range from £34.95 - £94.95

It’s a fantastic time to really showcase what our Kentish produce can taste like so join us for a seasonal show! This is our 12th tasting menu and each and every one so far has been loved by all in attendance, book early to ensure your place! We are not catering for allergies or dietary requirements for the tasting menu. This is the only menu we will be serving for the day.

This place never fails to deliver! The staff are always lovely, the food is stunning and it’s such great value for money. Each course I don’t want to end because it tastes so amazing, and I could easily eat a whole loaf of their homemade bread and butter! Will definitely be back again.

A truly excellent meal. We were warmly greeted, then thoroughly enjoyed every minute and every delicious mouthful of our three course lunch. Each plate was imaginative with exquisite attention to detail on every component. We left feeling that we'd had a real treat.
