The Rocksalt Group also owns a group of highly regarded pubs under The Pickled Egg Pub Company. Executive Group Chef Marcin Szelag who has worked for the group since Rocksalt first opened it's doors over 12 years ago, now leads a strong team of talented chefs across all venues and oversees the operation and delivery of all menus across the group. With a key focus on locally sourced, seasonal produce from highly regarded local suppliers, Marcin plays a pivotal role in the success of all venues. Rocksalt is a casual fine dining restaurant in Folkestone and serves the best locally sourced and seasonal produce from along the Kent Coast and surrounding countryside with a strong leaning towards fish and seafood. Holding 2 AA Rosette's since its opening in 2011, the restaurant itself sits cantilevered over Folkestone harbour with stunning panoramic views out over the English Channel. The Restaurant also boasts a stunning bar area serving its own separate bar menu and the newly opened Rocksalt Garden on the viaduct plus 4 beautifully restored guest rooms. This is a fantastic opportunity to join the team under the management of Head Chef Akos Mate and General Manager Leon Foissy, who both possess a wealth of experience gained from some of London and The South East's finest dining destinations.
