Here’s a few you really should check out.

PARK FEAST, CANTERBURY

THE SUN DECK, MARGATE

The Sun Deck (@thesundeckmargate) on Margate beach offers sunset views, great drinks, bangin’ music and, of course, slammin’ street food.

You’ll find the mouthwatering Pork & Co (@porkandco) with its famous pulled pork and buns at the ready, while Po’ Boy (@poboycreole) Creole Fish Hut offers up endless delights, from Samurai prawns and fish goujons to seaweed salted chips and chowder fries.

COACHWORKS, ASHFORD

Coachworks in Ashford (@coachworks_ash) offers up a quality street food scene, with Ashford’s finest range of suppliers alongside a creative co-working office space and live events venue The Hothouse.

Located by Ashford International Station, you can grab a drink at the Yard Bar and those with a penchant for poppin’ nosh head to Street Kings Smoke Shack (@streetkingssmokeshack) where the meat is cooked low and slow for a succulent melt in your mouth taste.

There’s also authentic Italian street food from Il Pakkero (@il_pakkero_ashford) to be found and South Asian inspired dishes from Khaza (@khazaashford).

You’ll find the brand new The Made Inn Bottle Shop (@tmicoachworks) offering more than 80 different bottles and cans of craft beer and cider. Meanwhile Faversham Coffee Co. (@coffeeshed18) is based there, too.

FOLKESTONE HARBOUR ARM

Where do we start? Since its launch in 2015, the list of independent street food traders operating from Folkestone’s trendy harbour arm (@fstonehbourarm) has grown considerably.

To name just a few feels like we’re doing a disservice to all the others as they’re all equally brilliant. A few examples are the much-loved big Greek bus (@thebiggreekbus), Burrito Bouy (@burrito_buoy) bringing big helpings of flavoursome West Coast USA-style Mexican deliciousness, and tasty bagels from Bobbie’s Bakehouse (@bobbiesbakehouse).

So get yourself down there and check out the rest of the awesomeness which has made it one of the county’s most popular hotspots for the street food army.

A new collaboration between Silver Birch Fine Foods (@silverbirchfinefoods) and Floc. Brewing (@flocbrewing) has seen a vibrant new addition to the food scene in Canterbury.

Based at Wincheap Industrial Estate, at the new Floc. Brewing Taproom (@flocbrewingtaproom), Anthony Birch is serving up his undeniably delicious street food, with unique flavour-filled fusions from BBQ beef kofta to Ponzu pulled pork and chill lime corn.
