Fantastic experience: THE AVENUE TENNIS CLUB AND RESTAURANT ARE IN MY OPINION THE BEST IN MEDWAY ANDY P
Fantastic experience: Great facility. Great food. Great staff
Fantastic experience: Amazing facilities and exceedingly nice staff.
Fantastic experience: Last Saturday evening we dined in the restaurant. Service was prompt and the food was excellent. My husband had the seabass which he said was the best he had ever tasted. I had the stuffed chicken breast. The portions were very generous. We were served by Henry, who although his badge said he was a trainee was so attentive and polite regularly checking with us that we were happy with our food. We had a voucher which family had bought us and will definitely suggest that as a present option again.
Fantastic experience: Very nice place, clean and modern. We were on kids tennis tournament. Great organisation of event. I was pleased to find a very nice restaurant there with great food and service. Hope to visit more events there.
Positive experience: Would have been a 10 as the club is fantastic- when you can book a court. The focus needs to go back to the adult members and away from the needs of the children. Let's remember who actually pays for the courts. Why do children use the courts at prime time after 6pm- when they are not allowed in the gym after 6pm. I have raised this comment on numerous occasions and never received a response.
Fantastic experience: The best gym with excellent cleanliness, friendly staff and an amazing atmosphere!
Thank you so much Maria for your kind review
Fantastic experience: Great tennis courts, nice restaurant, very nice health suite and good tennis coaches. Friendly club with lots of people who love tennis.
Thank you Kumo for your kind words
Fantastic experience: The lady that showed me around was lovely and answered all my questions. I have a hearing problem which means I lip read a lot and don't make eye contact and she spoke at just the right speed for me and was very patient. She was very knowledgeable about everything and she was really welcoming which made me feel I was already part of the club.
Thank you Lisa , we will pass on your kind comments
Fantastic experience: My son enjoys his lessons
Thank you Rod , glad to hear your son is enjoying his tennis
Fantastic experience: A touch of class in Medway! Best service. I would say I'd class this as casual fine dining, strange but true. We've been here 3 times now. For breakfast, Sunday lunch and dinner. BREAKFAST the best in medway, people would deem it slightly pricey, I say, you get what you pay for. Top quality sausage and bacon, everything cooked to perfection. SUNDAY LUNCH This really was the highlight of my week! Had the beef brisket, Yorkshire and trimmings were exceptional, I prefer my roasties a little browner though! DINNER mind blowing presentation and service. Great quality, once again,, feels a little expensive but we'll worth it. We had the scallops, Steak and strawberry tart. Stunning
Thank you so much for your kind review , we hope to welcome you back soon

Fantastic experience: Amazing club with superb facilities. Very friendly staff and members. Great atmosphere, I thoroughly recommend it.
Thank you Martin
Fantastic experience: I am a massive fan for this gym. I have literally been a member for a year now so a good time to reflect on my experience . The good . The place is spotless . The cleaners and maintenance do a fantastic job. The parking is well maintained , well lit and secure . The corridors are fob secure and changing rooms spacious with fob controlled lockers. On entry the reception staff are very polite and a restaurant provides both snacks and full menu meals with full bar too . As the months rolled on I found the equipment to well maintained and accessible , my fitness program which I do myself allows me to constantly vary my training and switch between equipment and free weights with a well thought out gym structure including cables , skill bikes , SkillMill, a Ski erg , rowers , free weights , Omnia Technogym , and various bags and functional equipment . The whole experience can be managed in an app supplied by Technogym. It is a very good, well structured gym with incredibly talented and very knowledgeable personal trainers . Highly recommended. The bad . The changing face of the fitness industry means that consumers need more then just a gym . They need motivation focus and community. The class structure allows for a element of this to run very successfully but a class does not cater for the need to train only the experience of it . The industry has moved on and adapting to its changing face is where AT is lacking . It’s very good at what it is , but I feel the experience of community is severely lacking in creating an atmosphere where members can engage as the Tennis members do with their tournaments etc is something I am still waiting to experience there . The whole team is a well polished machine and for the price of membership you do get exactly what you pay for a very well run gym.
Fantastic experience: This is the best gym I've ever been to. The staff are so friendly and helpful and the whole place just has a very nice atmosphere. I really enjoy coming here!
Thank you Sam , we really appreciate your kind words
Fantastic experience: Always so welcoming, efficient and friendly - a wonderful club
Hi Kate thank you for taking the time to review
Fantastic experience: Introduction as a whole has been very welcoming and the facilities look brilliant.Staff were very informative and helpful throughout the process.
Thank you Max for taking the time to review
Negative experience: I’ve just had my second lunch in the restaurant and was unhappy with the food on both occasions. The large salad was mostly watercress and the chicken breast was so chewy I couldn’t eat it. Although the kind waiter asked if everything was OK, I didn’t want to spoil the time with my lovely friends. I also felt it was a little expensive considering the quality of the food.
Hi Vanessa , we are really sorry you didn’t enjoy your experience with us , we will use this feedback to improve in the future . We do hope you can return so we can prove this feedback has been taken on board . Thank you
Positive experience: Food was ok but service was the slowest we have ever experienced. We were recommended to try it by friends who have had breakfasts and lunches during the week. Had to wait half an hour for drinks and then 20 minutes more to order food. Table was booked for half 3 but we were 10 minutes early as one of us was very hungry. Roast dinners arrived an hour from when we sat down, potatoes and broccoli were quite hard, meat was nice, biggest lamb shank I’ve ever had to be fair. Plates took an age to be cleared from the table. Wasn’t going to order a dessert because we wondered how long it would take but we did and it took ages. Sticky toffee pudding was lovely, ice cream was beautiful but the chocolate torte was laughable, it was so tiny and on a massive plate, I asked the waiter where the rest of it was and we were crying laughing at the table. Got to our table at 15.20 and left at 17.00 after having two courses and one drink each. It’s not a surprise it’s not busy and in all honesty it’s a shame that the service was so bad because it meant we scrutinised every part of the meal. Won’t be going back.
Thank you for taking the time to review Peter. This is not our usual standard and we are naturally disappointed to hear about the length of time service took and also the issues you raise about the food. We have been extremely busy since reopening , today may have been quieter than usual but either way we shouldn’t have made the mistakes you highlighted . I hope you can give us another chance in the future and as our trip advisor reviews show , we are normally so much better than this. My deepest apologies once again .
Negative experience: No dogs allowed in the outdoor area which is not very pleasant anyway. Only reason we ended up here is it was the only place to serve breakfast in the area that had outdoor space so we assumed dogs were allowed. It didn't seem like a very nice area to sit in, so if we didn't have a dog we wouldn't have booked here.
We are sorry you feel this way , we haven’t had many customers ask for dogs to be allowed so haven’t seen the need to consider this. Our outside area is normally very well received by customers especially in the nice weather.
Fantastic experience: Lovely scenery great food reasonably priced. Would definitely recommend
Thank you Kerry for your kind review , hope to see you again soon

Negative experience: my girlfriend andi popped in for lunch. while staff were lovely and very helpful, our food was not very good at all, Lasagna was burnt and i just couldnt eat it . so payed for wot we had already eaten and drunk and left , nice setting , and very clean , but food a let down.
Thank you for your review Gary , naturally we are disappointed to hear one of our most popular dishes lasagne wasn’t to your liking on this occasion . I hope you give us another opportunity at some point in the future .
Fantastic experience: Booked a table very easily online and had a delicious cod’n’chips. Chips were particularly fluffy like my mums old fashioned chips. Followed with a custard tart, which I scoffed way too quickly, and soy flat white. Absolutely delicious. Fantastic service from Kerry and Chloe. I will be back soon! Tables were very well spaced out and everything was scrupulously clean. I felt safe and relaxed.
Thank you Natalie for your kind words , we hope to welcome you back soon

Negative experience: Just been here for breakfast. Ordered smoked salmon with poached eggs. Although the eggs looked lovely the yolks were hard. My partner had full breakfast with poached eggs and his were hard too. I know I should have complained but no one even came to ask how breakfast was. I've would always expect the yolks to be soft in poached eggs. Very disappointed
Hi Margaret, I'm really sorry to hear this and thank you for taking the time to feedback to us. Can I please ask for a contact number or email address is sent to [email protected] so a member of the team can contact you? Thanks, Sam.
