To be honest I was rather shocked to see the negatives posted here about Tavernetta. I've been coming here for years, and rather like it. OK it's not nouvelle cuisine, not trendy, menu is a bit 1960's perhaps. But actually the cooking is mostly very good. Pasta dishes exceptional. Whitebait better than at the Trafalgar Tavern Greenwich (which is famous for it). Only one criticism, the prawn cocktail is usually pretty taseless (industrial polystyrene frozen prawns). The rest is fine.

I think there must be a local vendetta in Folkestone to prompt these negative reports. Shame on you. If you want to lure people away from this place, try offering a better service youselves. Don't diss the Tavernetta.

This is my site The 'Gerald that I set up in a fury of excitement when I first moved to Folkestone sometime in '04. I had been a frequent visitor for a while previous to that but I am technically one of those DFLs you get nowadays. This site was updated more frequently with a calendar of events + voting for favourite venues + things, and I know it was a handy resource for those who were moving to the area. Now I've moved out of Folkestone again (though just to Hythe) it doesn't get as much love as it used to. Ironic really as The town is now becoming the exciting place we knew it was just about to. My name is not Gerald BTW, the name comes from a pretend newspaper in an episode of The Day Today or something, the Portsmouth Gerald, and how there is a local paper here called the Folkestone Herald. Puns like this are great aren't they? Do get in touch if you have something to offer, email anythign @ this domain, or try @folkestone or @pauly on the twitter.
