🏰 Boys Hall Restaurant & Rooms – Boutique Dining & Hotel Kitchen Design in Ashford, Kent

✨ A Beautifully Restored 17th Century Venue

Boys Hall Restaurant & Rooms, located in Ashford, Kent, offers an exceptional dining and accommodation experience. With a rich history dating back to the 17th century, this stunning venue has been lovingly restored to its former glory.

Owners Kristie and Brad invite guests to recharge, relax, and immerse themselves in the charm of their boutique restaurant and rooms. Whether dining in the restaurant, enjoying a drink at the pub, or sinking into an armchair by the fire, the venue promises a warm welcome and the finest produce Kent has to offer.

🛠️ Our Role in a Unique Kitchen Build

We first met Brad and Kristie during the challenging times of Covid, when they were well into the hotel restoration project, which had already been underway for over 18 months.

After a period of initial design and consultation, we were contracted to design and build the restaurant kitchen within this amazing building.

⚡ A Bespoke, Electric-Only Kitchen Solution

The kitchen needed to be electric-only and designed to fit seamlessly within the historic environment while offering state-of-the-art functionality. For this reason, we created a bespoke one-piece cooking suite to incorporate the best of modern cooking technology, while still respecting the heritage of the building.

Key equipment included:

• Valentine Fryers – efficient, durable deep fryers

• Cooktek Induction Hobs – energy-efficient and precise cooking

• Flashgrill – versatile grilling capabilities

• Integrated drawer refrigerators – strategically placed under the cooking area for convenience

🍽️ Well-Defined Task Areas & Streamlined Workflow

In designing the layout, we focused on task separation to ensure a smooth and efficient workflow. The kitchen was divided into clearly defined sections:

• Preparation areas

• Cooking areas

• Serving areas

• Dishwashing stations

• Storage spaces

This structure not only increased kitchen productivity but also enhanced the ease of service during peak times.

🧱 Custom Installations & Finishing Touches

To ensure a complete, high-quality build, we also provided the following:

• Commercial extraction system for ventilation

• UPVC wall cladding throughout the kitchen for hygiene and durability

• Slip-resistant vinyl flooring for safety

• Two bespoke stainless steel bars with accompanying equipment, creating a stylish and functional front-of-house area

🌟 A Highly Rated Venue with Continued Success

Since opening, Boys Hall Restaurant & Rooms has quickly become a highly rated and well-established venue, earning praise from both locals and visitors alike. We’re proud to have been part of bringing this incredible space to life and wish Kristie and Brad continued success as their venture flourishes.
