  “We stopped by Cafe Nucleus in Chatham today around lunchtime and had a fantastic experience. I had the burger, which was absolutely delicious, and my partner had the Beef Bourguignon, which they said was excellent. The staff were all friendly, welcoming, and attentive, making us feel right at home. A real highlight was getting the chance to chat with one of the chefs after our meal to thank them personally for the wonderful food. It's always nice to see people who clearly take pride in what they do. We'll definitely be back and would highly recommend Cafe Nucleus to anyone looking for great food, good drinks, and excellent service.”

  “Went here for brunch and loved the food. Everything was delicious! However, it was quite expensive for a café.”

  “Came for drinks today was lovely until one brown haired employee wasn’t attentive with us, not friendly at all. This is my first and last time coming. They need to look at who they are employing! Such a shame!”

  “Ordered 1 portion of waffles and 1 portion of pancakes along with 2 flat whites: £38, including 12.5% service charge. Coffees were not exceptional for the price we paid. Waffles tasted like store bought, with small pieces of crystallised sugar as I was cutting through them, very sweet and dry. Sister-in-law had the pancakes and apart from being warm, she didn’t have any compliments, but also said that they didn’t taste fresh. When we asked the waiter if they were made there, she said ‘no’. Both items were listed on the menu under ‘Batter’ section, which makes you think that they are made from batter at the cafe, and not being served ready-made, similar to store bought batter items. The place looks good and there is a nice atmosphere, but I would not return after this experience. When I went to the other Nucleus location in Chatham that closed down a couple of years ago, it was a different experience with the food and drinks, same with the Rochester location. Maybe other items on the menu are better than the ones we chose on our visit.”

  “Absolutely love this place. Me and my husband frequently go this cafe. Food is great and so are the people who work there. Very friendly. The manager lady was super nice showing us around the gallery. I was told they do pottery classes too which is great. Inside sitting place is so beautiful and the outside sitting place has blankets for u. Beautiful ambience. Best cafe in chatham.”

  “Small inside area, but lots of outside tables and seating under cover, with blankets provided. Very clean and cosy inside . Very friendly staff, especially our waiter David. Good selection of light meals and breakfast/ brunch at reasonable prices. Well presented, tasty and generous portions”

  “Cute little cafe/breakfast/brunch with a lovely garden seating area. Staff super friendly and attentive. There is a cheaper breakfast option on specific times of the day/week. I believe it went down to around 11 pounds for a full breakfast on that offer. Which is nice to see cafes do cheaper options for the customers for the community. I ordered a caramel latte and it was such a beautifully made coffee and wow what amazing coffee they have. Would definitely recommend and be returning in summer in the outdoor garden area with some lovely sunshine.”

  “We went to Nucleus on Sunday afternoon for a meal and what an experience that was! We were welcomed by a waitress who showed us our seats and got us our menus. We decided to go for roast dinner and some Kentish cider to wash it down. Not long after different waiter David would bring us our drinks and had a little conversation with us being very polite and friendly. After a brief moment our roasts arrived. I have to say that it was best roast I've ever had. Meat was succulent, gravy mouthwatering, roast vegetables caramelised, crispy and sweet, roast potatoes were divine and cauliflower with cheese creamy and flavoursome. Harry and Katherine hats off to you for this high end gourmet fine dinning. Since we enjoyed our main so much we decided to have a dessert as well. David recommended us his favourite puddings and we made the choice. I can only say that the first Chocolate fondant with ice cream and Belgian chocolate sauce left my taste buds spoiled. Thank you very much for this experience. Keep up great work as we need places like this which can show what excellent food is all about👌”

  “You would never think you was on Chatham High Street, I felt like I was in a lounge on the Costa del Sol. The food was amazing, fresh, full of flavour and presentation was awesome. Staff are very attentive and very welcoming, we only came for a light bite and we are coming back again for the Sunday roast!!”
