About the building:

The wonderful Tudor buildings where Elizabeth’s of Eastgate is housed date back to the 16th Century, with many original features still intact.

Elizabeth's was quoted in the novel Great Expectations by Charles Dickens as the home of Uncle Pumblechuck.
At the turn of the 20th Century the building was known as Mr Seeley’s Drapers, providing the local women with all their drapery requirements.

Years later, it was transformed into Elizabeth’s Tea Rooms and owned by a lady called Elizabeth – and the rest is history.

If by chance you are exploring one of Kent’s most historic cities, our restaurant in Rochester could be a good starting point or a good way to end your day.
