Excellent work as always from James and his team. Despite being busy, he is well organised and always fits me in somehow! The job is done properly, at a fair price, and clean up is always good too. Pleasure to work with and I will continue working with them in future.

A quirky characterful themed cafe with the tone set by the owner and staff. Well worth a visit. It is a small place so a bit crowded and food took a while but lots to look at while you wait and it was worth waiting for. Generous portions well cooked.

Great restaurant with friendly staff and welcoming atmosphere. Food was delicious and served in a timely manner. The WW2 decor has a very interesting history and adds an extra charm that you don’t get at a lot of other cafés. 100% recommend if you’re in the area and fancy a tasty brunch!

Amazing cafe, staff are absolutely wonderful and cheery! Elz the man that owns the cafe is a proper laugh!! The food is lovely, I’ve been in a few times now and the two waitresses are very kind, lovely and helpful. It’s a clean local cafe. Lisa the cook is very friendly and lovely. Atmosphere is amazing, everyone talks to eachother and there’s 80’s music! Service was astounding like usual. And it’s a dog friendly cafe so bring all your pups!! Would urge anyone to come here with family or friends!!

After quoting up for a new fuse box and a couple of smaller jobs, Mark arrived on time and completed everything and a few tripping issues on the way. I was interested in what he was doing and he explained along the way. Mark was very professional, completed the work within the time frames set and tidied up after. Not only do we have a safe fuse box, but a working light and socket! Highly recommend, so much so he's going to be doing some work for my dad. Thank you

I cannot recommend Mark at White Spark highly enough, we were in the process of ripping out our kitchen & Mark hit the ground running, understanding the brief & what we wanted to achieve. Nothing was too much trouble & any extras we needed weren’t an issue. Due to a part of the kitchen being delivered late he had to make extra visits & again always arrived with a smile & got to work. If you are planning to use a reliable local electrician I would strongly advise you to get Mark to quote you, you won’t be disappointed.

Just had Mark finish a small job for me. Fit me in at short notice so I could have it done before the holidays. Very happy with how the job turned out and a friendly service while it was carried out. Will use him again in the future and highly recommend others to give him a call.

Great service from Mark at White Spark. We were STRESSED when hubby drilled through an electric cable on Friday night, but Mark came through at 7pm and managed to get our lights back on! Very happy with his service and with the reasonable price! Wouldn't hesitate to recommend :)

Proper English cafe, real tea proper food lovely service, feels like walking into a family home in the respect that everyone seems to be on first name terms!

If you're looking for delicious food served in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere with ample on street parking, this is the place for you! Popular with locals, and visitors like me alike!

To be honest, I read the reviews first before deciding to have my mid-morning breakfast during my one-night stay in Birchington. This little place is a gem! The lady who served me was ever so welcoming - I felt completely at ease! She seems to know all her customers by name and I was delighted to be part of such a warm atmosphere. My breakfast was perfect - I should have had second helpings! I highly recommend Zara's!

This is a real treat of a café. Zara and her partner are so friendly and welcoming. The coffee is great and the food is yum, real homemade treats. We have been going for years with my aunt, but hadn't been in ages, however Zara remembered me and as usual had a lovely warm welcome. It's one of my favourite places in Birchington.

Fantastic service! Matthew did a full electrical inspection report for our property before carrying out some replacement & remedial works - including a new consumer unit. His knowledge about all things electric is staggering, and he works speedily and tidily. 100% recommended.

After seeing the works these guys completed for my daughter, I got them out to complete some work for myself. They supplied and changed all of the downlights in my home for more energy efficient ones. As well as this, we were having issues with ventilation in our bathroom creating damp issues. They investigated the problem and they were very quick and efficient in fixing the issues found and explained everything very clearly to me. Really friendly chaps and wouldn't hesitate to use them again 👍

I had an issue with an electrical feed to our outside lighting and cabin. The guys came round sorted the problem and gave me a quote which was competitive. They then came round within a week and completed the new cabling. Quick, efficient, polite and cost effective. Thank you!

Matthew and his brother wired up my shed to connect power. They fitted an outdoor socket as well as lighting all round. On a separate occasion they supplied and fitted colour changing LED strip and profiling around my bedroom. Overall they have been really professional, polite and produce high quality work. Highly recommend TwinEnergy and will be using their services again in the future.

Dave was recommended to us and turned up on the day he was contacted, he was presented with an awkward task of wiring in two built in ovens with limited space to position the electrical connections. He solved the problem swiftly and competently, completing the task in a relatively short time. It was clear he had a good knowledge and understanding of his job and I would not hesitate in recommending him to anyone looking for a good, reliable electrian.

Dave has been brilliant. We recently moved into a flat and got three quotes for rewiring. Dave was by far the most reasonable and also offered a more comprehensive service than the other electricians. He has been extremely flexible, full of great suggestions, is very safety conscious and has a lovely team.

Calm cafe atmosphere, festive for the holiday (Easter) great selection of cakes, friendly staff, free WiFi, decent coffee with a nice selection of syrups. I love this local cafe (I'm assuming it's a family run business), I'd definitely visit again. Only thing I can think of for constructive criticism, is that there was a few grains of ground coffee at the bottom of my latte, but that's me looking for things to improve on as I know it can happen. 10/10 visit 👏

I would definitely recommend a visit to Fields Cafe in Birchington. The food and especially the wonderful and really special cakes made by the owner of the Cafe,Jamie are a real treat. The service and atmosphere is just great and it’s very relaxing and enjoyable being there. Today i tried his banana and pineapple cake with pistachio nuts on top!! Absolutely delicious. Large slice too!!

Nice fish and seafood restaurant in Margate. The food was delicious and the service really attentive. You can feel the fish is fresh and the water always happy to answer any question. It tends to be busy so it is advisable to book in advance.

I had my lunch outside, which was any of the other places on the square, a long table without nice views. The place looked nicer inside, so I might try that if the weather doesn't call for eating outside. The food was delicious. My turbot was a bit charred to my taste, but not too much to ruin the dish. The service was great, even if i could have ordered another glass of wine if the waiter had not changed in between my courses. While the prices are upscale, I would have expected a few more than three potatoes for five pounds on my side dish.

If you love fish, like I do, then you will love Angela's. An ever-changing and varied choice of sea food based meals that are very tasty. There were a single vegetarian and vegan option for starter and main which were very good also. The staff were very friendly and helpful, as well as being extremely attentive.

A small but cosy restaurant. Excellent and fresh seafood, we ordered scallops and pumpkin soup as starters, the scallops were cooked just well with pumpkin potatoes mashed at the bottom. The pumpkin soup is rich in flavour. Perhaps is Monday, there was limited choices for the main, we have the turbot and skate, both are incredible delicious.

WOW!! We are visiting for the weekend and knew we had to visit Angela's. With our expectations high, we were still blown away!! The mackerel with kohlrabi and scallops were AMAZING, apple cider sorbet FANTASTIC, and every drink - wine, soft, and coffee - was a delight. Not only was the food and drink incredibly fresh, delicious, high quality, perfectly prepared and creatively devised - the service was BEYOND 10/10. We felt so at home and welcomed. We came in 30 Nov @ 2.30pm - a very special shout out to both waiters who served our table and the chefs, for being incredibly accommodating of a gluten + dairy intolerance - altering the dishes we ordered, explaining super clearly the menu and allergens, and the chefs even going the extra mile to serve us a delicious dessert. I have never been accommodated for intolerance so kindly, professionally, and gracefully - this was just truly fantastic. We will be back!!!!
