Was recently in Margate for Pride Weekend and came across Big Shot. The food was incredibly tasty (we had the breakfast burrito and a cheese toastie) but most importantly the service was phenomenal. 100/10.

Love this place. Every time I come to Margate I make sure to pop in. The Colonel Mustard toasted sandwich is what dreams are made of. And the Bloody Mary … don’t even get me started

My favourite place in Margate (with the pub right next door holding a close second!). Superb coffee, incredible food, amazing views and the loveliest staff. A proper small business built up from scratch and surviving the lockdowns to become part of a community. They have great special events, shots and tasty cocktails as well. Especially recommend the beans and banana bread, so delicious!

We stumbled upon this lovely restaurant while looking for somewhere to eat in Margate. We were welcomed in to eat despite it being the end of a long day for the restaurant team and without a booking. The decor is beautiful, the staff were warm and friendly and the food... we were impressed. It's delicate and delicious with options to suit lots of tastes. The price was very reasonable for the quality we experienced. Thank you 🙏

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Colina Restaurant for my Birthday party in Margate and it was an exceptional experience. The food was outstanding, particularly the baby chicken and clams dishes among others,The flavors were perfectly balanced and left me wanting more. The waiting staff was incredibly attentive, ensuring that we had everything we needed throughout our meal. The open rooftop facilities added a special touch, allowing us to enjoy our time with a breathtaking view. I highly recommend Colina Restaurant for anyone looking for a memorable dining experience in Margate.

Fantastic spot in Margate! The food is great, we had the octopus salad, crab tagliatelle, bavette and deserts, highly recommend the peach sorbet for dessert. The atmosphere is cozy, and they even allow dogs, which was a huge plus. We were served by Harry, who was very welcoming. Highly recommend this place for both locals and visitors! 10 out of 10, would dine here again 😁

I had a wonderful experience at Colina. Everything I ate and drank was excellent, especially the shrimp burger and the lemon tart. The restaurant is conveniently located, looking right out to the coastline. It had a very cosy and inviting atmosphere, which was helped by the wonderful staff.

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.

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.

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 recently hired an electrician from TKM electrical to do some work at my home, and I was very impressed with the quality and reliability. The electrician was punctual, professional, and completed the job efficiently. They communicated clearly throughout the process, ensuring everything was done to my satisfaction. I highly recommend them for any electrical work, as they delivered great results with no issues!

TKM were amazing from start to finish. Ty and Billy provided power and light to our new garden room and nothing was too much trouble - their attention to detail is superb, and the end result looked so much better than we anticipated! Recommended 100%. Clean, tidy, professional work.

Perfect! A ceiling rose fixed for me, and My lights in my rooms look great, lounge light was a bit of a mission as a very old light but managed it beautifully and fixed new light sockets around the house for me. Very good price wise! Lovely friendly guy and very professional and will have him back shortly for some more work! Totally recommend. 😊

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.

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.

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!!!!

I booked Angela's for our wedding anniversary. Delicious, well executed food in a relaxed atmosphere. It was definitely worth the trip from Tunbridge Wells to Margate for the meal.

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.

This is not a Michelin starred restaurant: my 5-star rating is for the warm welcome, the friendly, relaxed atmosphere, sensibly-priced snacks, and the facilities afforded to parents (and grandparents!) with young children, which are top-drawer. There's even a separate upstairs room available away from the main café. Excellent!

Absolute gem of a place with great coffee [espresso], fabulous food, and the sweetest ladies. You feel like a dear friend every time you walk in, even when it's your first visit. I highly recommend this place and urge everyone to support these women. They have a wonderful cafe and the kindest hearts. When I'm back in Margate, they will be my first stop.

Lovely new cafe, we stopped by for a late breakfast, loads of small kids play stuff in the garden with the supporting equipment you need for them... play area and more seating upstairs to. A lovely quirky feel, the inside ground floor was a kid free zone, lovely old building, really friendly and engaging owner, and a great story re why it's called the little fish cafe. Dog friendly and they did our one a lovely "dog sausage" too. Coffee was really very nice. Great place for families with small kids and dogs

This little restaurant is one of the best I've come across this year. The people are genuine and friendly, and you can trust the owner to deliver authentic and delicious Egyptian food. I tried all sorts of dishes, and every single one was faultless in terms of taste. The food is truly amazing and delicious – I never expected such high quality. From the bottom of my heart, I'd give it 5 stars and hope to return soon. Thank you, Shreen and Sharif, for making us so happy today. We had a brilliant time!

What a great little place this is! We were struggling to find some vegan food at 5pm on a Monday in Margate and then came across this place. I had the Egyptian Koushary which was absolutely delicious and so filling, just what I needed. My partner had the Falafel with VG cheese, pitta bread, salad and Tahini and they really enjoyed it. There was about 4 tables outside and probably 8 (?) inside. The service was really quick (although they weren't that busy) and really welcoming. Will definitely visit again when next in Margate.

Delicious fresh food. I tried the Fata chicken, tasted amazing. The rice was made in away you can taste that it is well cooked, not just streamed rice. I don't know what is exactly the sauce they put on the rice but it was amazing. The crispy bread inside the rice was a bonus. The chicken was awesome too The fact that is a family business make you feel that food made with love

I can't recommend Jordan & his team highly enough. They did a fantastic job wiring our dream home in whitstable. Their knowledge & skill was fantastic and nothing was too much trouble. Having lived in the house for approx. 4 months now the lighting is each room is perfect with no shadows, all the sockets in exactly the right position & height & this is solely down to the metiuclous planning and thought of Jordan & his Team. All the work was completed to time and they did exactly what they said they would do and when. If you hadn't already have guessed, i would recommend Monarch without hesitation. They are a quality outfit with great professionals. Thanks Jordan & Team!!

Jordan and the Team at Monarch Electrical were fantastic. I had a full house re wire and the team were brilliant. Any additional needs I had or changes I made they were completely understanding and worked around everything else happening in the house! The attention to detail was extremely good. I could not recommend monarch enough and they were very affordable.
