Engel's Paradise

What a delightful little place. If you want to experience true Polish food in Kent, you must give this delightful out of town café a try. The Polish breakfast was really good à with beautifully cooked scrambled eggs, chopped smoked sausage mixed in, another fairly large grilled sausage, a small pot of Polish mustard, two tiny open sandwiches, with some delicious mild cheese, a slice of mild pickled cucumber and ham. Complimented with some super-fresh salad. Extremely well plated with precision and care. I was particularly taken with the very flavourful chopped chive garnish which apparently is imported from Poland. Generous portions here. The charming couple running this café try so hard to provide excellence. And in my opinion, they truly have succeeded.

If you're looking for authentic Polish food, look no further than Engel's Paradise. This charming spot delivers an unforgettable dining experience that blends tradition, flavor, and hospitality in the best way possible. The pierogi are absolutely the highlight here — easily the best in town. Delicate dough, perfectly cooked, and filled with rich, flavorful fillings that take you straight to a grandma' s kitchen. The atmosphere at Engel's Paradise is welcoming and cozy, with Polish accents and homely touches that make you feel right at home. The service is excellent — prompt, friendly, and attentive. You can feel the passion and care in everything the team does. And what truly sets Engel's Paradise apart is the amazing owners. Warm, genuine, and proud of their heritage, they go above and beyond to make every guest feel like family. Engel's Paradise is a must-visit. Authentic, delicious, and run with heart — it doesn’t get better than this.

A truly lovely experience at this charming Polish restaurant! The pierogi were freshly made and absolutely delicious – soft, flavourful, and full of that comforting, home-cooked quality. The Szarlotka (Polish apple cake) was just as good – fragrant and beautifully baked. The owners couldn’t have been more welcoming, and in a wonderfully thoughtful gesture, they gave me a cold bottle of water to take away as it was such a hot day. Fantastic food, warm hospitality – I’ll definitely be returning. A real hidden gem!

Lovely restaurant, so welcoming and friendly and the food was incredible - a real authentic Polish experience, everything was so delicious! Will definitely be back very soon

One of the best places to eat! We came after the kitchen closed but Slava made everything possible to accommodate and feed us! Pierogi and kielbasa were quickly prepared to offer a great authentic polish experience!! Thank you, Slava: this made our day!! A published newspaper article, which I took, reflects all the greatness about this place ❤️

Absolutely loved our visit to this Polish restaurant in Deal! We came as a family of four and had a delicious, freshly cooked dinner. Everything was full of flavour and clearly made with care. Prices were very reasonable, and the portions generous. It’s a family-run place with lovely, friendly owners who made us feel really welcome. Well worth the trip — we’ll definitely be back!

Love this local gem. Best breakfast I've ever had! Food can take 20 -30 mins to arrive if not booked in advance but that's because its all cooked fresh. The ambience is genuine and authentic as are the hosts!
