Cafe G in Thanet

I regularly enjoy a coffee and a pastry here. Always get a friendly welcome from the owner and staff!! The best coffee in Margate! Wouldn’t go anywhere else!

Rudest owner in town Apparently the stale food is & I quote " Not his problem". Seriously ????

Became our go to place over the Margate soul festival weekend, the best coffee, great menu and friendly staff! Highly recommended!!

Always ready to serve with a nice smiley face. Food very good. Sat outside today and had a lovely lunch plus pot of tea. Watching the world go by and looking out to sea. Jackie x

Everytime I go to margate I always visit cafe g.its always a good expirence.staff,food .all good.i would highly recommend a visit there

So good, we went back the next day. Great choice for breakfasts and main meals. Let us have a mix of both which was great for our autistic child as he could have his breaded chicken. They allow dogs inside too - perfect for the ropey weather! Coffee was yummy. Highly rate the 'Big 5' smoothie too. Staff very welcoming. Toilet clean. Prices were very competitive as well. If we are in the area again, we would head back.

A very old little cozy cafe by the beach. Loved the croissant 🥐. They have introduced new flavours of ice-cream 🍦 One of the best breakfast places in Margate.

Always a lovely cafe! Good choice of food and friendly service. The paninis are really good. Lovely atmosphere to relax inside or outside and good ice cream too. My dogs love a trip to Cafe G!

Came here by chance today with my daughter, very friendly and attentive staff made us feel welcome as soon as we walked in. The coffee was incredible and we both had a hot dog - fed and watered two of us for a little over £10 will definitely be returning soon! Thanks to all of you at Cafe G for making our day even better!

Delicious food, really good value. Fantastic service (girl with the long plait was fab).

Really lovely place to eat. Great staff welcome, nice food and coffee. Lots of regulars so it must be good. We'll earth a visit.

Stopped off during a bike ride to pick up a pastry, had croissants on display so got one for each of us. Couldn't believe the price of £4 each but a least I thought they would be nice. They were awful, easily the worst croissants we have ever had in memory. dry, stale, and flavourless. Won't be returning.

Haven't eaten but looks fine all the food but take away real coffee for 99p a cup deserves the 5 stars. Great coffee. Great price and nice staff.

Popped in for an early lunch. Really nice attentive staff and quick service. My daughter said that the toilets were really clean and roomy.

Excellent place dog friendly delicious coffee 5*

Excellent service food is amazing would definitely recommend it they have seating area outside right near seafront

Brilliant cafe on the sea front. Vibrant and outside sitting area as well. One of the best places to have breakfast.

Cafe G is a true gem in the world of coffee and milkshakes. The service here is not only polite but also incredibly welcoming, making every visit a pleasure. Their coffee is a revelation, boasting rich, aromatic flavors that awaken the senses. Whether you're a cappuccino connoisseur or a latte lover, Cafe G delivers on both taste and quality. And when it comes to milkshakes, they take it to another level. Creamy, indulgent, and packed with flavor, their milkshakes are simply divine. What's even better is that all this deliciousness comes at a price that won't break the bank. Cafe G's affordability means you can savor their delightful offerings without worrying about your wallet. In essence, Cafe G is the epitome of a perfect coffee and milkshake haven. With a warm and polite service, a coffee selection that delights the palate, and prices that are easy on the pocket, it's a must-visit for anyone seeking a delightful caffeinated and creamy treat.

We recently had a garden party all the food was supplied by Danial &his team ,it was amazing we had many compliments about the variety &quality ,made our day perfect ,

4 idle people behind the counter and no one to even acknowledge us for 5 minutes lol

Good place for coffee, a snack or a meal. Sensible prices for great food. Thank you.

Use independent coffee shops! Had a lovely bacon toastie this morning while holding a client meeting. Great service, friendly staff and a lovely atmosphere. Great views of the harbour too

He only charges £0.99 for a takeaway coffee - the same price for 20 years. If he wanted to, he could charge £2.50 like all the other coffee shops. The food is also delicious and great value.

Nice milkshake with beautiful view here. Ladies here are very friendly as well !

Great food and friendly staff. Good prices and portions compared to other places. I would be happy to come back here.

A nice little cafe on the seafront. Service was polite and efficient. The food was fast and good with respectable portion sizes.

This is our go to place for lunch or just coffee and ice cream, the meze is delicious as are the staff🥰 lovely people, nothing is to much trouble for them

Good service, friendly staff and reasonable charges. On Sea front. Disabled friendly but toilets down steep stairs. No parking.

Stunning service, good food a very pleasant lunch with family, local pastries and beers are worth a look

Fantastic food and drink. Definitely worth the price

Charged me an extra pound for a latte. Will not go again

Friendly and welcoming. Good selection reasonable prices

Decent cafe. Some interesting beer selection and deserts, somewhat unusual for a cafe in UK. Nice location, right by the seafront

Lovely cafe, delicious home cooked food. Friendly, attentive service.

As usual, good honest food at a good honest price, served by lovely friendly staff. A regular stop by for us in Margate.

Thank you so much to Daniel and your team. I'm new to the area and this was the first cafe I used. Your customer service was above and beyond and I look forward to many more visits for the lovely coffee you make. A very Happy New Year to you and your team. :)

Thoroughly recommend the vegan hot chocolate with soya or Oak milk 👌😋

Very good for family and Kids !

Visited Margate for the day. This cafe was the best part of our visit. Amazing food. The Greek salad was a big portion and filled with everything you’d expect from a beautiful salad. You can feel the difference in this family run business. 5 star all the way!!!

Great spot to people watch! A jug of Pimms is £20, and they make it with all the fixings : strawberries, mint, summer berries, cucumber, etc. It's a 1-person toilet, and located in the basement. It's difficult for the staff to see who needs what because of the layout of the restaurant - the ice cream counter blocks the bar, so best just queue up and pay at the till 👍🏼 the staff are lovely, relaxed and responsive.

Excellent menu great friendly service and reasonable prices, a must when in Margate

Serving ice cream cones with bare hands is a no no for me, specially if you are touching money, tables, tills and all sorts. Doesn't take effort to use a tissue like most Ice cream parlous

Lovely place right on the seafront with seating outside , staff were incredibly welcoming and attentive … food was fantastic and reasonably priced too !! couldn’t have enjoyed my lunch more :) Thank you 😊

Good service and very good coffee . Thank you Cafe G.

Haven't been for a few years. Definitely pre-covid.. So difficult to say... My only comment is, compared to last visit, I felt clostrophobic. I remember how spacious it was.

Quick service. Great place to people watch. Good price of food. Lots of seafood dishes to choose from and hot. Staff friendly as well.

It's a small bar. My family and I only ordered some coffees, a CocaCola Zero and an Oreo shake, and everything was delicious. They have treated us great. Its only flaw is that it closes at 3:30 p.m., much earlier than other bars. Highly recommended.

Nice Cafe! VERY reasonable prices and the owner has not gone the stupid route of charging London prices (as some have). I will use this very well run cafe a lot. Only one suggestion: Get some table numbering system sorted out and numbers written on orders so that the serving staff can understand because if you have a system it's not working.

I love their lattes, friendly customer service and they even bring a free biscuit with your latte and its nice they have tables and chairs outside too.

Great service great view from Margate

Had lunch there with my son and daughter in law. Lovely food.

Really really great Cafè. Fantastic staff and great atmosphere. Always very friendly.

Nice food service was abit strained hence the lost star

Really lovely. Good food, and excellent service.

One of the best places to grab a snack/have lunch in Margate! We’ve been coming here for years and, each time we visit, it gets better! Just had the Nachos with a Twist and LOVED it! Sea views, great prices, amazing food, awesome service and dog friendly! I highly recommend!

Great coffee! Lovely place. Lots of alternative milk options, including oat milk.

Very nice coffee. Friendly staff. Reasonable prices. Will visit again.

Come for the 99p take away teas, stay for the fishcake roll

Always a great place to stop for a coffee and bite to eat after a walk with the dog

Very reasonable prices. Good service. I would return here.

Very clean, dog-friendly café. Busy but good service. Will go there again.

Always a pleasure to visit. Friendly staff and tasty food presented in an appetising way. Great coffee too.

The food was nice however, after we ordered out food it took a very long time for it to arrive and they forgot one of our meals and after a while they finally came over to us. Even after this it took another 15 minutes for this to arrive. When we had finished we waited a while for a waiter to pass us so we could ask for the bill but we gave up with waiting and had to pay at the till.

Nice place coffee and danish very good

The decor is nice and food looked good. Quite cramped at tables. After a long wait for table service I went up to order. My Mocha was quite watery though which was disappointing. Wouldn't go again.

Best coffee house in Margate great staff and very reasonable prices always first choice when have time for a break

Great place for lunch, coffee or a beer.

Great service and friendly staff.

Not a nice place tbh. Decor is dated. It's cold. No effort into the bland, poor quality food. Been there twice and it was almost exclusively staffed by teenagers both times. Which I suspect is to save on wages. Place just feels like it's more about squeezing pennies and regurgitating cheep-to-make-dishes than creating a nice establishment. Won't be going back. Just moved to the area as well.

Great food, great coffee, great people.

Good place for a coffee, with a good selection on the menu.

First time here today and what a nice place, excellent staff and great coffee

Lovely staff, very clean, reasonable prices & great food!

The Calamari was the best I have had in a long time. The young lady that served me was really nice and welcoming. I will be going back.

We were looking for somewhere to have something light and plain to eat, and found this lovely cafe. Very welcoming and friendly! Delicious tuna baguette and my husband had a bowl of yummy chips along with 2 lattes! Very reasonable priced and we will return when next in Margate.

Food good but service very slow. I had to ask for every thing I ordered again and they forgot one meal.

Decent café, friendly staff and a good choice of lunchtime drinks and snacks.

Great milkshakes and lovely atmosphere.

Love the food here. Great atmosphere and kind and friendly staff. Would highly recommend.

Service has gone down hill won't be going there again x c x

Came here for coffee and hot chocolate/cake was very delicious. Come here whenever we visit Margate. Staff are very friendly and helpful, not sure if the owner but an older lady works there so amazing customer service she is great with all customers. Definitely worth a visit

Stopped here for a nice fish finger sandwich and some chips and some soft drinks. Tasty sarnie and clean toilets.

Cafe G's brilliant staff really make this place a top seaside spot for a light meal or coffee break; the menu is simple but appealing, from toasted panini to salads and snacks. Our family had lunch at one of the outdoor tables on a busy breezy day, and our lovely waitress was smart, tirelessly kind and genuinely thoughtful with all the customers; I'm sorry I didn't get her name, but she was a real superstar, with cool pink hair. Her young colleagues were also brightly friendly and helpful - altogether, an excellent staff team, reflected by the genuinely happy and upbeat array of customers across the venue - thank you!

Clean and good coffee and food. Lovely staff

Nice cafe for a coffee and bit of breakfast after a walk on the beach, itv overlooks the square and the beach, the hot chocolates were nice with cream and marshmallow on top in the jam jar glasses with handles. A wide selection of snacks. Some seating outside but it was windy this morning.

Good food and friendly staff lovely little place to eat and drink

Excellent cafe, great, friendy service - nothing was too much of an ask. Food very nice and well priced. Had a fish finger sandwich and a Lotus Biscoff milkshake which was yummy. Nice outdoor seating area, lots to chose from on the menu

Great place, charming modern decor and fresh and tasty meals. We ordered two salads with fries - Greek and salad. Revelation. I was positively surprised by the wonderful, high-quality additions to the Greek lettuce. Great crispy fries. Everything was served quickly. Very clean. Great service and a very nice owner who cares about the customer. It's really worth eating there because the prices are surprisingly good. I sincerely recommend it.

I went there today with friend for Ice cream. Staff very rude ,pretending not to understand what you are saying. Answering from sitting on the floor. 1 time and last. Very disappointed

Nice place to eat and drink very friendly staff only in Margaret Kent

Went there one day for drink while on holiday. Young girl served very quick and very friendly. We thought we would go back for lunch following day. An older lady with pink hair kept saying wont be a moment. We sat there for 30 mins, and all she was doing was clearing tables. So we left. Young girl would have given it 5 stars but following day really bad.

Absolutely love this place, it's part of the real hub of the Old Town. Food and beverages excellent value for money.Please try the mezze. Fast and friendly service. Theres a lovely buzz in the Old town in spring/Summer when the tables and chairs are all out, al fresco style.

Stood waiting for 20 minits inside the café and was ignored by everyone. Even after asking "is this the right place to order" ...

Great service, great staff and great food Really efficient love coming here

Came in for ice cream and was pleased with the range of flavours on offer. The service was friendly and the ice cream itself was good

very good double expresso, nice tasty coffee i rate it! and a very polite service. 5 star

Best special hot chocolate in town

Love this place. Amazing coffee and food.

Great hot chocolate and good coffee, friendly staff and opposite the beach 🏖️

Good food and friendly service.
