A Wealth of Choice

Seasonal menus showcasing the best in local produce

Rocksalt’s menus are inspired by the wealth of fresh ingredients that Kent & the South East has to offer.

Food with a view

The heart and soul of Rocksalt are our menus, served inside the stunning restaurant space & outside on our sun drenched terrace. We take time and effort to source our ingredients as locally as possible: from the day boats working along the South Coast to the local farms set in the rolling Kent countryside, our focus is always on provenance.

Something for everyone

Our A La Carte menu changes seasonally, showcasing everything from the freshest fish to the best quality meat, as well as locally sourced smoked or cured fish. On Sundays it’s all about the traditional roast, with a selection of locally reared meats and a roast fish of the day. Family is something that is very important to us and we welcome children of all ages, offering under 10’s their very own menu. We can cater for most dietary needs so please let us know in advance if you have any special requirements.

An exquisite pairing

Rocksalt boasts an eclectic wine list, jam packed with wines that sit harmoniously alongside the dishes leaving the kitchen, perfectly blending our love of old world classics with forward thinking New World producers.
