The perfect place for a special meal - the terrace overlooks the sea and sunset, a wonderful place to while away the hours. We love to go here for evening drinks and a meal, and to watch the sun set.
Booking is usually required.

One of two favourite pizza places in Margate. This one is just around the corner from our house. We sometimes take some drinks and pick up a pizza and head to the beach :) Really lovely to eat in too, beautiful wines and a lovely atmosphere.

The Greedy Cow Cafe
3 Market PlSimply the best burgers in Margate!
Another local favourite - take a stroll along the harbour arm and you'll end up in the Lighthouse bar at the end - in the summer it has a 'cafe del mar Ibiza' vibe, a great place to people watch, and to watch the boats bobbing around. They do BBQ food as well as drinks and have plenty seating outside.

Our favourite local pub
Our favourite pub - they have jazz on a Monday night where locals come to jam, and it's the best! More beers and ciders to choose from than you could shake a stick at, a great spirit selection and a real old fashioned pub vibe.
