Well this has been a long lockdown… We’ve been operating as a takeaway since the beginning of November 2020. We had to effectively cancel Christmas and find new ways to deliver Valentine’s Day and Mother’s Day menu options (thank you everyone who made purchases for those events – the support was incredible), but now it would seem like there’s a light at the end of the tunnel.
For starters you can now sit outside with one other person and socialise, chat, eat and drink. It might not sound like much, but it’s a start and it only gets better from there…
March 29th expands that one person up to 6 or from one other household.
From April 12th, non essential retail will reopen and we have a fantastic new range of gifts, jewellery, art and models that we can’t wait to display. We will also be allowed to serve tables of 6 outside with proper food on proper plates – no more takeaway only options.
On May 17th the rule of 6 moves indoors and our interior seating will reopen with brand new tables in order to make the most of the space and ensure social distancing between tables. Outside you can have groups of up to 30, so we hope to see the return of the West Kent Veteran’s Breakfast Club and the outdoor space will also be available for evening hire for groups of up to 30.
And finally on June 21st (hopefully) everything should return to normal with all remaining restrictions lifted.
Opening Hours
We are currently open Monday to Saturday 09:30 – 14:30 and will look to extending both the hours and the days as the lockdown eases. Our facebook page @pantrychatham is a great place to make sure you’ve got the latest information.
