Kentagon
About This Spot
Stepping into Kentagon feels like settling into a familiar pitstop nestled right within the heart of Brands Hatch Circuit. There’s an unmistakable hum of anticipation mingled with the warmth of a well-loved family restaurant where both race day adrenaline and everyday comfort find a gentle balance. It’s a place where the pace slows down just enough to savor a steaming cup of coffee and a hearty breakfast, surrounded by the echoes of roaring engines and the camaraderie of fellow motorsport enthusiasts.
The atmosphere here is easygoing yet charged with a subtle excitement. You’ll find yourself sharing the space with race marshalls and fans whose stories loom as large as the historic photographs adorning the walls. It’s casual, unpretentious, and grounded – a spot that embraces its role as a gathering place during the big track days, while welcoming visitors with genuine friendliness and familiar rhythms.
Food at Kentagon reflects both the needs of those chasing laps and those simply seeking a satisfying meal in good company. Whether it’s a well-crafted fry-up that fuels the day ahead, a comforting rib eye steak to celebrate a race well-watched, or a warming plate enjoyed between sessions on a chilly winter day, the offerings carry a reassuring sense of generosity without fuss. Even the young ones can find their favorite treats, helped along by the nearby playground that adds a playful pause to mealtime.
At its core, Kentagon is more than just a restaurant within a racing venue—it’s a subtle thread woven into the local tapestry of Brands Hatch. A place where moments, conversations, and flavors come together in a way that’s both rooted and refreshingly straightforward. Whether arriving with an appetite after the roar of engines or simply looking for a welcoming spot to gather, there’s a warmth here that lingers beyond the race.

Came to Brands Hatch for the W Series Championship Final and had the Pitstop Breakfast here and we were pleasantly surprised with not only the pricing which we expected to be higher for the racetrack venue as they tend to be, but also the smooth organisation of the canteen style restaurant. All the marshalls all eat here and it does add to the atmosphere of the day to be eating in amongst all the orange overalls! We found the outside concessions more pricey (and there's nowhere to sit to get out of the wind) so we went back for lunch and they put an a decent range of choice and were again very quick at serving and clearing.

I had a chicken curry and it was absolutely delicious! The staff are really friendly and served great hot chocolate too. Perfect on a freezing cold January Winter Stage Rally event. Thank you to the Kentagon for keeping us warm!

ONLY OPEN ON RACE IR BIG TRACK DAYS... Ignore Google hours ....As usual MSV provide a decent quality restaurant on site offering a full lunch service at a reasonable price. Really friendly staff and the usual evocative historic picture gallery of past races. Appropriately, given I require a larger race seat, I sat next to a picture of Gerry Marshall while I ate my pie n chips....

We were at the Formula Ford Festival on Sunday 26th October and stopped by the Kentagon for something to eat, during a walk around the circuit. At about 1.20pm I naively thought the lunchtime rush might have subsided a bit, however it was extremely busy. That said, the staff were great, serving everyone efficiently and helpfully. We both had a roast beef dinner and I have to say it was one of the best ever. Two really chunky good sized pieces of very lean beef was served with cauliflower cheese, roast potatoes, Yorkshire pudding, mixed veg including fresh broccoli, gravy and horseradish. Really generous portions for £14.95 each and thoroughly recommended.
