Tim's Vinos and Tapas

I've only been to Tim's twice, the first time was just to have a quick glass of wine and see what the place was like - I left about 4 hours later, as relaxed as a newt, vowing that the next time I was in Folkestone I'd actually book a table! About 3 months later (Mar 07) I did as I promised. My friend and I turned up at 7.30 and the place was fairly quiet - bonus for us as we ordered before the rush, and what a rush! By 8.30 the place was packed, the atmosphere was superb, the wine free-flowing (and very nice) but the food surpassed it all! We had a sea food paella and it was totally delicious!

Tim's Vinos and Tapas review (slight return)

We finally bit the bullet, and returned to the venue of our very worst Folkestone dining experience this weekend. And it was a success! I am very happy to report that Tim's Vinos and Tapas (the new (ish) name for Timothy's Wine Bar is great.

"Folkestone's Premier Tapas place"

That's what Timothy's Wine Bar are calling themselves now. I hope it's improved since our absolutely dreadful visit, that was a Spanish themed night...

My wife and I are regular visitors, only because the service, food and welcome is excellent.

Timothys wine bar

Timothys may have had some teething problems, but is now one of the best venues in Folkestone. I always get a warm and friendly welcome and the recent addition of a large choice of Tapas dishes are excellent. If you would like to learn more about wine, or just have a great night I recommend the regular wine tasting events, which are always fully booked.

Timothy's Wine Bar

I have visited Timothy's Wine Bar twice now on my journeys through Folkestone and now will make a point of ensuring I go in each time. I agree with Lisa, I think you were just incredibly unlucky with your evening. I find the staff more than friendly and the food excellent. Having a vegan in the family, I do understand the problems and pitfalls of restaurants but found that Tim and the chefs couldn't do enough to look after us. I love the atmosphere and cant wait to become a recognisable customer, hearing my name shouted as I walk through the door, and having a nice glass of red handed to me as I'm ushered to my favourite table. Id give it another chance if I were you.

Timothy's Wine Bar

Thanks for the comprehensive review of Timothy's Wine Bar. I found the review from a google search and must admit it put me off visiting the establishment. Luckily my other half didnt listen to me and wanted to attend the school dinners evening ... Thank god he did. What an evening. Great hospitality, enjoyable food (although you probably cant go wrong with bangers and mash !) and good surrounding (better than the wooden shed effect of the old Sylvesters !).

RE: Timothy's Wine Bar - 1582

Gary - the review was not unfair. You were not at our table and didn't receive the service we did. I'm pretty sure you also didn't call into Timothy's the week before the Spanish night and pay an 80 deposit to ensure that our vegan chum would have something decent to eat. I'm also pretty sure that you didn't have to endure the husband of the "chef" berating you for having the temerity to remark that the food wasn't that nice. And please bear in mind, we didn't go out of our way to complain. We were simply honest when we were asked "how was your meal".

An update from Timothy's Wine Bar

Our matriarchal representative wrote a pretty fierce letter to Timothy's (possibly as stern as our review), arranged a face to face meeting with the owner and fearlessly ACCEPTED a cheque for a partial refund for our meal. Good work!

Timothy's Wine Bar

Folkestone is in danger of becoming a culinary wasteland. Sure, it has the usual collection of OKish Chinese, Indian and Pasta / Pizza joints. But, with the exception of the cosy Kapetan Michales, you have to go to Sandgate or Hythe to get a half-decent meal.
