"Start your night with a cocktail at this delightful neighbourhood restaurant that was once the village shop. There is no small amount of skill on display from the chefs, with dishes that are exquisitely crafted and deliver fabulous flavours and textures, be it an exceptional raviolo or glistening turbot. The very best ingredients from Kent’s larder are a feature, while the wine list looks further afield to up-and-coming regions such as Georgia, Croatia and Macedonia. Service comes from a charming team who work with pride and passion." - Michelin Inspector

I was taken here for my birthday and we had one of the best meals of our lives. We had the 8 course tasting menu with paired wines. Every course was outstanding. My particular favourites were the Morels, with confit egg yolk, pickled mushrooms and celeriac and the buttermilk mousse with blood orange, Arbequina olive oil and apple marigold. The restaurant is fairly small and cosy, all the waitresses were lovely and helpful. They explained the meals well and the sommelier's description of the wines was very clear and helpful. The wines tended to be from small estates all over the world and were excellent without exception. The meal was expensive, but compared to other Michelin starred restaurants we have been to, it was very good value for money. The restaurant is in Saltwood on the edge of Hythe and it is a good idea to book a taxi back to where you are staying in good time as there are no local taxi services. I have been to a good number of one Michelin star restaurants and this one is well worth the second start it gained recently.

A week later, and we’re still vividly recalling the flavours, aromas, and artistry of every dish we experienced at Hide and Fox. The 8-course tasting menu is the kind of culinary journey that stays with you—refined, imaginative, and deeply memorable. The Orkney scallops with caviar were an early standout— delicate and perfectly balanced. The East Kent lamb (personal favourite) was a masterclass in complexity, its subtle smokiness and depth of flavour truly captivating. Earthy morels in a delicate consommé, vibrant Wye Valley asparagus followed—each dish more thoughtful than the last. The Comté soufflé was indulgent and perfectly executed, leading into a dessert course that was nothing short of divine: a citrus-lifted buttermilk mousse with arbequina olive oil, followed by an ethereal Yorkshire rhubarb and white chocolate parfait—light, floral, and exquisitely balanced. A bottle of crisp, expressive white Burgundy accompanied our meal beautifully. The ambiance at Hide and Fox is both intimate and sophisticated, with warm, attentive service that enhances the experience without ever feeling overbearing. While the menu is firmly rooted in modern British cuisine, there are subtle Italian influences and a certain creative kinship with Fordwich Arms, which we visited last Christmas. Hide and Fox stands elegant, thoughtful, and unforgettable. We will definitely come back!

Such a wonderful dining experience! Creative & delicious food, plated beautifully. Alice's wine pairings were spot-on, and talking to her about them was a real treat - she added so much to our evening. The team's hospitality was perfect. An absolute gem that everyone should make a point to visit!

In my opinion, one of my best fine dining experiences ! Out of all these 1-2-3 star Michelin star restaurants that I have tried so far, this was definitely the best value for money. Can’t fault the service, enjoyed the relaxing atmosphere, nice chats with the front of house lady and the chef. Food wise, they well accommodated my sister’s requirements. I can taste the hearts going into it! Every dish tasted nice and had creativity. Even the sidekick- home made bread was very impressive! And also the flow of the whole menu was nice, I mean it’s a common fault I find a lot of fine dining places make: each dish had its own character but they don’t go together. I certainly felt this menu was working really well together. Oh forgot to mention, the wine collection was also splendid! Will definitely be back!

We had a fabulous meal last night with wonderful staff who described all 5 courses plus amuse bouche! Highly recommended for a special meal to celebrate any occasion. The cocktails were good too!

Stopped by on a Thursday for lunch. So impressed by everything about this little tiny restaurant, that somehow never felt crowded, despite each table being full. The 5-course lunch (seafood free) was exceptional on all levels, beautifully presented, well delivered and explained, but most of all, DELICIOUS. Highly recommended and worth the money (and the accolades).

We were travelling to France the following day, so decided to book the Hide & Fox for a pre holiday treat. It did not disappoint, one of the best Michelin dining experiences we have had. Food, ambience and service were out of this world, and the wine pairing excellent!! We’ll look forward to returning the next time we are in the area :-)
