About The Pickled Herring
The Pickled Herring is a modern British restaurant at 54 Albion St in Broadstairs, serving British cooking built around line-caught fish landed daily, with sea bass among the fish dishes. Meat dishes include bavette and other beef plates, and a set roast menu pairs chicken breast with cauliflower cheese, red cabbage, greens, carrot and roast potatoes. Sausage and chips also appears on the menu. Dessert includes a homemade banoffee pie. The bar pours from a wine list and mixes a Pickle Martini. Dogs are welcome at the restaurant.

“Food was delicious!! Service was great too. Portions were a little small for the price but worth it”
- James Dorey
“With my daughter being a picky eater, this had, in her opinion, the best sausage and chips she's ever had. Myself and my partner loved the food, too, and the host was incredible, even though the place was fully booked through the day they still fit us in at short notice. Would highly recommend the chicken breast roast.”
- James Peeling
“Came here for Sunday lunch. Had the chicken breast. Came with lots of sides , cauliflower cheese, best red cabbage ive had, greens, carrot, roast spuds. Best sunday lunch to date, on the sunday lunch tour of thanet. Service is relaxed but prompt, tentative, and nice, good and relaxing but quiet atmosphere. Great spot, pub on the opposite corner, paid parking opposite, then you can have a nice stroll down to viking bay or broadstairs jetty. Get yourself down there folks. Keep up the good work picklers of the pickled herring, you're worthy of my current best sunday roast crown. Thats all folks”
- Paul Hamilton
