ZAPATA
If you are looking for a restaurant in Tunbridge Wells, there are numerous options available to you to help you fill your belly and have a good time in the process.
Weather your favourite taste is Italian, Mexican, English, Indian, Chinese or even Polish you are sure to find a restaurant catering to your needs. I have outlined a few options below.
For lovers of Latin American cuisine, Zapata, next to Nevada Bobđ€™s golf superstore on the pantiles should be your first port of call. This lively restaurant is the perfect base to start a Friday or Saturday night, offering all the Mexican staples from Burritos to Tacos and everything in between and around. Why not wash down the food with a Margarita or a Mexican beer while taking in the themed decor and ambient Music all served by the very attractive and friendly staff.
Being on the Pantiles also offers the advantage of it being only a few steps from a number of great watering holes for you to christen your newly lined stomach.
If you like a bit of entertainment in the form of live music while you eat then you should take a look at the Grey Lady. Right across the pantiles from Zapata, the Grey Lady can be reached in less than a minute.
The Grey Lady is an asset to live music in Tunbridge Wells hosting regular blues and jazz nights. The atmosphere here is a lot more relaxed than at Zapata and an ideal place for a romantic night out.
The menu at the grey lady is centred around Mediterranean cuisine, featuring dishes such as Coquilles de la Casa - Fresh seared King Scallops with Prawns in Garlic, White Wine Parsley Sauce and Grilled Chicken Brochette - Chicken Fillet with Peppers a Greek Salad with Tzatziki. All appearing alongside the , quote-unquote, standard dishes such as Pizza and Pasta.
For a more traditional English affair, take a look at Woods. Woods is another restaurant which benefits from being situated in the Pantiles. This timeless place looks right at home, and you wouldnđ€™t blink if you came across it a couple of hundred years ago at the inception of the pantiles.
Located just opposite the band stand, Woods is the perfect base to soak up the entertainments on a hot summers day. Pull your chair up, order a drink and take in the music. What could be better?
Not only providing good food, Woods has an extended wine list featuring wine from wineries in England, Australia, New Zealand, Chile, Germany and of course France among others.
I cannot recommend enough that you go out and try some of the many restaurants in Tunbridge Wells.
