Wonderful restaurant close to the beach. Portions were great + the kitchen crew (Asian) know what they’re doing even on their varied menu - good classic English + Asian dishes. Really want to come back to try more of the Asian dishes too. 3 mins walk to beach.

Very beautiful Bar/Restaurant by the sea, I enjoyed a much needed treat of Fish and Chips with a drink, was served by lovely team members. Restaurant has indoor and outdoor seating areas and it was lovely to listen to live entertainment outside also. I enjoyed the space and the atmosphere, walk by the sea which made it very special. Thank you ☆☆☆☆☆

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
We had an absolutely fantastic experience at The Oyster Pearl Bar & Restaurant in Seasalter. From the moment we arrived, the staff were welcoming, friendly and attentive — the service was excellent.
We ordered a few of the Asian-inspired dishes, and they were absolutely incredible. You could taste the authenticity and care in every bite, the chef (who we understand is Asian) clearly brings real expertise and passion to the kitchen. The flavors were fresh and beautifully balanced and the presentation was just as impressive.
It’s rare to find a place where both the food and the service are outstanding, but The Oyster Pearl absolutely delivered. We’re already looking forward to coming back and will be recommending it to friends and family without hesitation!- Meal type

I mainly loved the waitress and the kindness of her welcoming. She was really nice and supportive in explaining us the menu. The food is nice and the place is warm and cosy. The beach is only few steps away and the sunset was astonishing. I really recommend this place.

Visited here a few times while on holiday in Whitstable, first for drinks, then for food. I would say it is definitely a pub first and foremost, but one that does really nice food. The traditional pub grub/Asian menu mix caused a few selection dilemmas but everything was cooked very well and was a cut above standard pub food. The pub also hosts live bands. Friendly staff and well worth a visit.

Took a trip down to Seasalter today as it was lovely and sunny and came across this pub. The people were very friendly and our dog was made welcome. The food was delicious and my girlfriend said that her seafood medley was the best thing she’d eaten for years! We’ll defo be back 😋

The food was delicious and we had a lovely meal of fish and chips, all local, and it has real ale too! We also went back for a Sunday roast and had the pork which was also lovely to eat and plentiful! All local food! The staff were also friendly and helpful!

Our first visit and can genuinely recommend. Nice atmosphere and busy (but not overcrowded). Really good value for money
Tempura prawns (my wife tells me they're the best tempura prawns she's had!) and scallop starters both really well cooked and tasty. Main courses of Rendang Beef and Moule Frit both excellent (my mussels were one of the nicer ones I've had. Too many places overcook them but not here). I had read one review which complains about portion size but we found they were ample. Service was prompt, certainly no issues on that front.
Thoroughly enjoyed our dinner - oh, and the house red is worth a punt.Probably mine and my partners fave local restaurant and we alwaya go here for special occassions. Only place in town that serves to our different tastes at once at a very good and affordable quality. Also dog friendly.

Just had a wonderful meal here. We are staying at the holiday park opposite and this came highly recommended. The pan-Asian food selection were good and we all enjoyed ours - flavoursome and good portion size. The staff were really friendly as well. All in all, thumbs up from us!
Lovely Sunday lunch from the classic Roast Dinner to the Asian Thai Curry. Great hosts and great atmosphere. Couldn't fault it.
