Amberlea Japanese Tea House is a hidden gem in the Kent countryside, near Leeds Castle and the North Downs. Guided by Okami (lady of Amberlea) Thuy, whose passion for Japanese cuisine and culture shapes every detail, Amberlea offers a serene blend of food, tradition, and tranquillity. Our signature kaiseki-inspired tasting menu and Japanese afternoon tea celebrate seasonal flavours with elegance. Guests praise us on Facebook and Google for authentic cultural experiences and heartfelt hospitality. With tatami-inspired interiors, a calming Zen garden, and a cosy backyard for al fresco dining is intimate yet welcoming. Beyond dining, guests can join cooking classes, tea ceremonies, or stay overnight with our cultural escape packages. At Amberlea, every visit is more than a meal — it’s a journey to Japan.We are not a restaurant. Each menu is thoughtfully created for you, inspired by your tastes, preferences, and any allergies or dislikes you share with us in advance.
