The Windmill Chatham Green

Passed through on my walk of the Essex Way in the May day bank holiday weekend. The previous 2 pubs I had tried were closed and I was hankering for an evening meal and a rest so I came to the Windmill not realising how fancy it was! Despite that and my less than ideal attire, the waitress was as an an angel to a weary traveller and found me a seat. After a bread basket with a deliciously salty spread, a cauliflower risotto and of course a chilly pint, a man on the edge walked another few miles or so into the night and slept happily in the woods with a smile on his face. I will have to return one day - the classiness of the place mixed with its quaint but very highly refined pub vibe is exquisitely peaceful and the food is like dining on dreams. Only giving it 5 stars because 1000 isn't an option.

Wow, what can I say? There are very few high quality, dog friendly restaurants but this one made our little girl so welcome (even given special treats!). We decided to have the Tasting Menu and I can honestly say there was nothing I didnt like! Tom is an exceptional chef, and Nancy an amazing front of house being attentive to all the customers. Michelin quality food, the star for which will follow as the restaurant develops. Thank you Tom and Nancy for a fabulous evening.
