Top Places and Services in Flete, Kent

We visited for lunch last Saturday and were thoroughly impressed. The food was outstanding, especially the whole crab, which was incredibly fresh. The atmosphere was great and the staff were friendly, particularly the bearded waiter. Highly recommend!

Had a great lunch here before an evening at Funland. The table was 30+mins late. Could have offered Drinks... But we spent £100 next door at no. 42 (thinking why we did not not book 42. Jake was a great waiter thanks, the meal could have been a little better and would have been amazing if they had been aware of the birthday, wait ...

Went on a Saturday as soon as the restaurant opened at noon - managed to get a lovely spot on the terrace with a relaxing seaside view.

We ordered various seafood dishes including a whole crab, a hot platter, a single oyster and also chips on the side. Have to say everything was simply fresh and excellent - prices reflected the quality and the portions well!

The waiter serving us was also polite and knew how to be friendly without being too bothersome which we appreciated.

All in all, if you're visiting Margate and only have room for one nice meal, then this is the place!

Absolutely perfect experience from start to finish. Our server Daniel was excellent and very friendly and attentive. He also recommended some great places for us to try after our meal (Mariachi Mezcal bar!) Even small bites such as the olives were an absolute delight! Huge and full of flavour. My husband ordered the Buoy bowl which he demolished and thought was excellent and said the King Prawns were some of the best he's ever had. Meaty, fresh, full of flavour and cooked to perfection. I had the Halibut which was also fantastic. Loved the saffron mash. Would of liked a bit more leek in there as potatoes are a bit dense. But the crispy skin on the fish and the bisque were superb. Also...a must try is the crab donut!!! We were so curious and so glad we tried it. Lovely sauce and dill herbs too. Also the view is to die for. We had a seat on the terrace and the sunset was unreal. Toilets super clean, all other staff very friendly. Can't fault this place whatsoever and so pleased we went!

An absolute gem in Margate.

The seafood here is nothing short of spectacular – fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented.
The oysters were perfectly shucked and bursting with briny goodness.

We can't wait to return! Highly recommended! 🌊🦪
