Cracking little place on the corner. The smallest theatre in Europe with a varied programme. Even if you don't see a show or live music, the bar is cute & you can stumble home this in about 3 mins.

Solid LGBTQ+ friendly pub in the heart of Margate's historic centre. Lovingly restored Grade II listed building which also operates as a boutique hotel. The G&H has a lovely vibe & is the perfect spot for a casual bite or afternoon drinks in the suntrap seating out front.

Food scene

Previously a quality old boozer run & frequented by a bunch of lovely skinheads. Now home to Khmer Kitchen - one of the UK’s very few Cambodian restaurants. Still retained most of the character of Margate’s oldest pub.

The Riz is a divisive Sri Lankan restaurant on North Down road - seemingly run by the Sri Lankan Basil Fawlty. Most people like the food but I couldn’t say the same for the owner although I personally rate both. He’s certainly a character!

Tricky to categorise as a 'Pubs/Nightspots' or 'Food scene' as it does both so well. Either way - beautiful cosy old pub with a small but lovely dining room/courtyard through to the back. For me - it's all about the Sunday roast which I reckon is the best in town so I'm going 'Food scene'!
