Hi, I’m Josh, the Manager here at Basil on Tonbridge High Street. I’ve been part of the Basil family since 2018, working my way up to this role, and I couldn’t be prouder to oversee our daily operations.
My focus is on delivering exceptional service, maintaining the highest standards, and making sure every customer feels truly welcome.
Hospitality is my passion, and there’s nothing more satisfying than delighting our customers, whether it’s by crafting the perfect hot drink or preparing one of our delicious dishes. For me, the highlight of the day is seeing someone’s face light up over a rich, flavoursome coffee paired with one of our famous gooey brownies.
When I’m not at the cafe, I love hitting the gym or catching some waves down in Cornwall. But here in Tonbridge, my team and I look forward to making your day a little brighter.
Come and see why we’re one of the best places to eat in town—I can’t wait to welcome you!
