“ We came here only for few drinks and starters. Kids loved their deserts. Ordered everything online. A big sad when you can not talk to the staff and ask more questions. Oh well. It is today's life I suppose. We sat outside with the heater on. It was lovely ”
“ First time been there but I was really impressed... Yes it cost more than Witherspoon's but I didn't regret fish and chips and the pizza was something else ”
“ I visited with girlfriends. It was It was lovely atmosphere to reconnect! Unfortunately one of us didn't get what we wanted and the rest of us had to adjust our orders due to food shortages (thanks a lot Brexit!!!). I found the service absolutely amazing though, and the food, once ordered and paid for was delivered VERY QUICKLY. I was impressed I could order a breadless burger!!!! Yes thank you so very much !!! I've already said I'd go again with other girlfriends or a group. Amazing place! ”
“ Oh my goodness, those dirty fries! We tried 2 different flavours and they were honestly so amazing! Really lived upto our expectations. The burgers were a really decent size too and also in thickness! We also had a pizza which was well flavoured and again, a very decent portion size. Will definitely be returning, didn't take any pics as was far too interested in eating it all! ** update ** Went back for more and wasn't disappointed! Even rememberd to take a picture for you all ”
“ I've been going here for about 4 years and food is always consistent, great range of drinks..good for whiskey and beer lovers, nice selection of good local beers and small rang of cocktails. Menu is not big but what they do they do well!! You must try there burgers..to die for, you will not be disappointed I guarantee. Staff are great here, nothing is too much trouble ”
“ Delicious food with quick and efficient service! The loaded fries were superb. Returned today, had the loaded fries, cajun onion rings & chicken wings. The food was even better than I remembered and that takes some doing! The ordering system is very quick and efficient, scan the QR code, enter you table number and order away. Pay when you place your order so you don't have to wait for the bill. Service was very quick (it was quiet at the time). ”
“ Pier 5 is a truly great spot for a relaxed evening out. Located right by the river in Chatham Maritime, it boasts a fantastic feel-good atmosphere. The extensive drinks menu is a real highlight, offering everything from proper real ales and a great selection of lagers to a wide variety of whiskeys, gins, and much more. Whether you're after a classic pint or something a little stronger, they've got you covered. My recent evening there was fantastic. Enjoying a good drink and some delicious food while watching the river flow by was a real treat. The view across the River Medway is a definite plus. One thing that really stood out was how comfortable the outdoor seating area is, even when the evening gets cooler. They've thoughtfully provided plenty of heaters, making it a warm and inviting space to relax late into the night. When it comes to food, you absolutely have to try their loaded fries. The "mucky" options are particularly amazing – I highly recommend the Mucky Swine loaded fries with spiced fries, crispy streaky bacon, cheddar and mozzarella cheese, house burger sauce, and BBQ sauce. They also do a Messy Cow version with beef chilli and jalapenos which sounds equally tempting! The portions here are generous, especially the chicken wings. You can get a 0.25 kilo portion or go all out with a 0.5 kilo or a 1 kilo shareable (or not!) amount. They're tossed in a secret recipe house blend seasoning, and you can choose your preferred sauces If you're looking for a relaxed and enjoyable evening in Chatham with great food, a huge drinks selection, and a lovely riverside setting, Pier 5 is definitely worth a visit. The added bonus of ample outdoor heaters makes it a comfortable choice even on cooler nights. Just make sure you try those incredible loaded fries and the generous chicken wings! ”
“ My friends and I popped in for a pizza and I decided to have some chicken wings as well and I can legit say this is the best chicken wings I have had in the UK so far. It was amazing. The customer service was great as well and I always say great customer service makes the food taste ten times better. I will definitely go back there. ... ”
