Witnesses say the wine bar was not open to customers today. They report the fire alarm sounding at about 5pm. Owner Jeremy Godden is now at the premises.
A Kent Fire and Rescue Service spokesman said: “We were called at 5pm. There was smoke coming from the cellar. Two crews are tackling it using breathing apparatus, hose reel jet, main jet and a ventilation fan to clear the smoke.
“There are no reported injuries.”
The cause of the blaze is suspected to be a tumble dryer.
