Cramptons in Thanet

Such a fantastic afternoon playing the interactive darts game with friends, celebrating our friends 60th birthday. The £50 package deal was amazing value. The slider board was absolutely delicious. They even catered for our friend who is GF. 1.5 hours of interactive play included, which was such brilliant fun. Something different 100% recommend. Staff were so friendly as well.

Such a lovely pub. The Bar Man gave very good, friendly and professional service. We had 2 for 1 delicious pizzas, baked base, one of the best I've tasted. We were there when there was no Sport showing ( ideal for us ). Everywhere was very clean. Nice Ladies loo's. 10/10 from us.

Had lovely time...played darts...amazing staff...got free drinks when food was slightly delayed. They loved my lil doggie even offered sausages. So friendly. Food was fab....we will deffo be back thank you.

Great Christmas atmosphere Spot on food and staff Really lovely pud food Very impressed with how the lunch was organised

Great service was really happy with our visit will definitely return the staff were lovely and the drinks were cold what more could you ask for!

our first drink in a pub after lockdown and it couldn't have gone better - the staff were all so lovely, especially Luke who we were surprised to find out had only started today! he was so friendly and accommodating. the food was lovely and the drinks were even better :)

I have been to Cramptons twice this month with friends celebrating my masters . I can say they have been absolutely brilliant observing the complex restrictions and keeping everyone safe . I work as a clinician and spend my day in ppe trying to protect others and myself , so was important to me then when I go out I felt safe . Despite the added pressure of restrictions staff have remained attentive, considerate and polite . Well done Cramptons

We haven't visited here for a couple of years and I have to say standards have not slipped. We went for lunch and all the Covid restrictions were in place. Table service only and in spite of being fairly busy we were attended to fairly quickly with drinks being brought to us. They are still offering 2 courses, for £6 now. It used to be £5 but still excellent value. We had a burger and chips (£5.95) and prawn marie rose jacket potato (£5.45), both came with salad. I have to comment on how hard the staff were working and how pleasant they were. Well done!

we met for lunch yesterday 20.8.20. 3 adults 3 children....we had one of the beach huts, which the children loved....Nice and cool on a beautiful day.The staff were amazing and friendly. The food is the best value for money . It was fantastic....they even helped with the surprise birthday cake...love coming here....10/10.....

Went there on a Tuesday afternoon very quite 4 groups dining outside Clean and recently refurbished staff were very friendly all was going wellOrdered two home made burgers and chili con carneEnded up waiting 45 Minuets had to go and ask if every thing was ok Replie was there was a situation in the kitchen ...ok should of gave us a pre warning ?when it did arrive bit into it and spat it out with my teeth !! tough as old boot leather and over cooked and way way too much sage Disgusting ...felt a Gordon Ramsay moment coming on.. chili con carne was ok sogy rice though its a shame lot of potential there with a good chef!

Upon the reopening of many bars and pubs across Britain I thought it would be nice to catch up with some old school friends and have a drink at Cramptons Bar. Oh boy was I wrong. The owner is a self centred arrogant person with no people skills. He waters down his beers and I think he may spit in food 90% sure he does

We visited Cramptons late on a Saturday about 3.00pm and were lucky as the kitchen closes at 3.15pm. We ordered the large salsa nachos to share.When they came up the plate was huge with nachos covered in melted cheese, salsa, jalapeno peppers and separate pots of guacemole and sour cream. They were delicious and more than enough for two.I am disabled and in a wheelchair and they have a big disabled toilet which is spotlessly clean but has no lock so if people who can't be bothered to use the ordinary toilets need to go they can just walk in! Luckily this did not happen to me. I presume it is for safety reasons in case someone gets stuck in there.We read the menu while waiting for our food and they really have a lovely selection which is very reasonably priced.The other customers were really helpful holding the doors open so my husband could get me out in the wheelchair as the door opening is quite narrow.Altogether a great place and we will be back.

Amazing price, for the amount of food you get! Portion sizes are big and value for money is excellent. Presentation is lovey and has a nice out door area.

Popped in to Cramptons yesterday for a late lunch. A 2 course lunch for £5.00 sounded excellent value for money and it didn't disappoint. I opted for the Soup (Tomato) followed by Chilli & Rice, and my wife for a whole Garlic Bread followed by Lasagne with Salad. Very tasty, plenty of food, and tasted excellent. Highly recommended.

It's always a pleasure coming here for a drink, the staff are always smiling and provide a warm welcome. Good range of beers, Moretti being my favourite.It's a Wednesday lunch time and the place is really busy so the food is obviously good. Being at the top end of the high street away from the beach would normally be seen as a bad location, however its well worth a walk up the hill. And if you need to catch a train, the station is right opposite. A great Thorley Tavern Pub

Once again come to lunxh with my sister to get the meal deal which is a bargain ,u can have garlic bread or home made soup as a starter then theres about 8 different mains to choose from so variety for everyone and its only a fiver so good value for money and always nice never had bad meal here

Nice bit of dinner time grub, friendly staff, always quite busy for lunch. Ideally located next to broadstairs station

We decided to have a working lunch in Cramptons and weren't disappointed. Very friendly and helpful staff and a light and airy environment. A good selection on the menu and my jacket potato was huge and with a nice salad, definitely good value for money,Will definitely visit again!

Well what can I say apart from cheap lunch with a starter of garlic bread or soup which can I add is a favourite of mine no matter what flavour as home made and always nice then choice of about 6 to 8 meals for your main which change all the time always good variety so something for all u get both for £5.50 which I think good price never had anything I would turn my nose up or complain about staff friendly and helpful garden to sit out on nice days or heaters provided if hilly with shelter as well often visit with kids or friends or family members as it seems to work for most so worth a visit if u over there or fancy cheap meal with stayed cooked fresh

Great food, great prices, great services!! Well done Cramptons!! The value for money is outrageous!! Will be back again real soon!! Get in their, spread the word and the love!!

Visit here often with a friend for lunch. Staff are lovely and attentive. Food is delicious and they do a meal deal which is soup or garlic bread and a meal for a fiver which is a massive bargain. Drinks reasonably priced. Large sun trap beer garden. Highly recommended as a place to have lunch.

Just had lunch here. Amazing service. Friendly staff. Food was superb. Beer garden is beautiful. Thoroughly enjoyed my afternoon.. Thanks Laura..

Went in Cramptons twice on our weekend stay in Broadstairs. The staff were so friendly, and the beer garden is superb. We had the small portion of Nachos each, which was still a decent size, loaded with toppings, and for a really decent price as well!

I was in Broadstairs for the weekend and I visited the pub last night with my friends as it seemed very nice on their website. The staff was very friendly and approachable and the music was also really good. We had a really nice time there. Well done guys!

I have visited many times for lunch as they do a good deal at £5 for starter and main. The staff are friendly and the food portions are generous. Unfortunately, it takes an age to get your dinner and myself and several of my colleagues have stopped visiting as it takes too long to get food if you're in a rush. I won't be returning unless I have plenty of time unfortunately as my lunch still hadn't arrived and I had to go back to work. The more senior staff dealt with the complaint maturely although the younger one didn't inform me there would be a wait and claimed after 55 minutes I'd only been waiting 20 minutes.

We booked a table for 5 and the weather meant that we could sit outside. Great meal and so was service. We do come here now and again because of the prices and service. Always recommend this place.

This is just opposite Broadstairs station! The staff are very welcoming and pointed out the meal deal 2 course for£5! I had French onion soup with French bread and scampi, chips and salad with lemon and all the dressings! The staff check back to see if everything is alright! The service was great and the food hot and delicious! I would certainly recommend this place!

Excellent value meal, very tasty. The staff where helpful and friendly. Will definitely visit again. Don't look too closely at the decor, it's tired but overall a good first visit

We went into Cramptons because my husband wanted to watch the football and the other pubs we passed were crammed full. I have a mobility problem so have to have a seat.

We arrived at lunch time and was surprised how busy things were. We managed to find a table for 6 which was a little cramped but worked out well. There was a bit of a delay in getting our food( about 1/2 hour which we were told about). Thag was fine as we had drinks. They serve an extensive bar menu which was reasonably priced.

The food here is excellent value and the staff couldn’t be more helpful. The £5 2 course meal deal is exceptionally good value, with the best soup.

Tenía que escribir una segunda revisión, ya que este lugar no ha cambiado. La comida es excelente relación calidad-precio y el personal es realmente maravilloso. Todos ellos dan la bienvenida y te hacen sentir realmente como en casa. Creo que he dicho anteriormente que no podrías tener una mejor acogida en muchos establecimientos de cinco estrellas. Bien hecho, que es tan consistente. Después está la comida, dos platos por 5 libras! ! Habiendo dicho que la comida es muy buena. Tuve la sopa casera de hongos para empezar, seguido de fajita de pollo. . . . . Excelente.

We visited here for lunch as a family. Sat in a lovely 'beach hut' in the garden and ordered lunch from the £5 lunch meal deal. Not only was this cheap food it was also delicious. Plus service was 5 star! Would recommend

Un amigo y yo hicimos una decisión improvisada para almorzar aquí! A pesar de que teníamos cañas bebidas todavía nos dejan entrar y estamos muy amable. . La comida es estupenda y el Sports Bar es limpio, moderno y acogedor. El personal del bar es...

Excelente comida en un precioso jardín, las cabañas de la playa son una idea inspirada, altamente recomendado para una bebida y una buena comida relación

I go to this place regularly and that is for many reasons 1 the food is very reasonable 2 the...

Lugar agradable, ubicación práctica, cerca de la estación. Los precios son razonables y las porciones son más grandes de lo normal. No disfruté de mi ensalada de verduras asadas verduras porque estaba frío. Buenas bebidas. Las camareras son muy amables que jamás encontrado.

Tenía un encantador almuerzo con amigos hoy muy razonable y personal donde 5* nos hizo sentir muy bienvenidos y no podía hacer lo suficiente para nosotros. Gracias

Gran bar con buena comida a un precio razonable. Muy bonito y el personal encantador tratã³ detrás de la barra. Tiene un jardín de cerveza y el cielo, y puede tomar en perros.

Mi esposa y yo visitamos para el almuerzo. Ya que ella es un vegetariano estricto y soy vegetariano nuestra elección desde el menú era muy limitado. Sin embargo, el personal era muy servicial y amable, y optamos por una patata chaqueta con un generoso ratatouille abundante y pequeña ensalada. La comida fue servida bien caliente; muy sabroso y en acabado se nos sentimos muy satisfechos. También nos agradó que estábamos comiendo en un ambiente tranquilo y confortable.

I think this has all been said before but the service is second to none and £5 for a 2 course lunch, unbelievable. We went in for lunch on a very cold January day and managed to get the last table. They had a large party of diners in and we were told that the food would take about 45 minutes, that was before we ordered. We told them that was fine as we wanted a hot cup of coffee anyway while we waited. Meanwhile one waitress brought our coffee and asked if we were warm enough or should she turn the heat up and just to let her know if it was too warm or too cold (our table was close to the back door). We didn't wait anywhere near the time suggested and were surprised our meal arrived so quickly when they were so very busy. The food was plentiful, well cooked and tasty a real bargain. BUT we were so impressed with all the waitresses who were attending to our every need even asking if we would like a jug of fresh water along with our meal. I have never been offered that in a pub before and when the huge jug arrived there was a lot of sliced lemon in it. Wonderful as I always drink a lot of water! All these personal touches would not be out of place in a high class restaurant, in fact we have been to some extremely high class establishments and not received that amount of attention. We truly were impressed and will certainly be back.

This place does such great food with excellent service. We have been going for years and are always impressed with the quality of the cooking and the service. Even now we live abroad, we make sure cramptons is a vital stop off when we are back in the UK.

Cramptons food is Excellent value for money, fresh home cooking. Staff are extremely welcoming and helpful, will definitely be returning soon.

You can't beat this place for a £5 two-course meal deal 7 days a week. That's for a starter and main course. Very simple choices. Starters: Soup or a whole baguette of Garlic Bread. Main: Does vary a bit, but usually a Curry, Spaghetti Bolognese, Chile, Chicken dish, Ham/egg/chips, Scampi/Chips. Good size portions and nicely cooked. There is always a veggie option too. The waitresses are really friendly. Very clean, but simple. Highly recommended for a good cheap pub lunch. I go there a lot with friends.

My husband and I live in Faversham, but regularly visit Broadstairs. We always eat in Cramptons and their £5 lunchtime meal deal is superb value for money. You can choose home made soup or garlic bread to start and a main from the board. We have eaten there dozens of time and have enjoyed the meal every time. The food is always fresh and hot and the staff are always friendly and welcoming. The decor is not the best, but the food and service make up for the hard wooden chairs! Well done Cramptons and keep up the good work.

popular with the young people, great music, if you like clubbing music and drinks and also food, this is the place for you specially if you're over 20+ years old.

Best pub/bar in broadstairs! It has a Fantastic beer garden and always l great service from the bar staff and the management.The food is always perfect and excellent value for money!

The friendly service by the female bar staff can be excellent, and the food, to be fair is very good or indeed excellent for the money. Have a look in through the windows to see if it is too busy for you though, but sometimes it is fairly quiet so ther is room to drink eat and speak

You cannot beat the value at £5.00 for two courses at lunchtime.Soup and Ham Egg and Chips.Filling,tasty and excellent value for money.Added bonus is that the station is only a couple of minutes walk.Too far from the sea front to pull the punters from that direction during the day,although the bar atmosphere could be good in the evenings because you can use the station car park.

Good service with a smile, lunches are great and very good price . They have a special board everyday. When it's sunny they have a great eating area outside.

The meal was fine. For a fiver I got soup as a starter and then I had the main course of piri piri chicken. Everything was cooked fine. The chicken breast was not very good quality but for a fiver I think it was a good deal.

Spent a lovely few hours having a lovely early Christmas lunch here! The food was piping hot and service very good. There were fifty odd of us eating at the one time and everything went extremely well, I was very impressed by the portions and thoroughly enjoyed the meal. Old certainly book again.

We were delighted to be offered a Gluten Free Menu, and the offer to make a meal specially, if there was not something on the menu.The staff were fantastic ans so helpful.Well worth a visit, and the price was very good as well Thank you Cramtons

Regular visitor to Cramptons for lunch, the £5 two course meal deal is really good value. Two course either soup or garlic bread followed by a main course from specials board examples are chilli, tandoori chicken ham, egg and chips. In the summer take advantage of the large beer garden a super sun trap.Staff are great and ensure service is first class in what is one of the most reasonably priced venues in Broadstairs.

Cramptons is definitely the place to go if you want a pub lunch in winter or summer it's got a lovely beer garden were you can eat in and sit in the sun especially in the summer! Always eating here especially in the summer and never needed to complain and certainly never been let down! Would recommend to anyone!

Everything is great about cramptons. Polite staff. Good atmosphere. Excellent value for money and lush food.

I have been to Cramptons a few times and have had their £5 lunch. It is great value for two courses and recommend the mushroom soup starter and scampi main. The staff are very friendly and always aim to please .

I often visit Cramptons for lunch as apart from having a great menu there is also a specials board for those on a budget where you can get a two course meal for £5. The premises are large and can cater for large parties of people so perfect for a work lunch and the staff are so friendly and attentive. I highly recommend this as a perfect lunchtime venue. Also they have an outdoor area which is lovely in the summer. My only criticism is that parking can be tricky and expensive but well worth the inconvenience.

Always get a great brunch or lunch here. Great selection, always freshly made with creative specials that change often. Always friendly service, never had a bad meal. Kids welcome with good food choices. Large beer garden. Try the nachos, very good!

Cramptons posted online you are able to book tables with us for your nights out, party's, hen and stag nights out. I contacted the manager who said he would sort this out for my party on the date I gave him. Having not heard anything running up to the event I then contacted the bar manager and she assured me that she would sort it out for me by the time I got there with my party. When ariving at the venue welcomed like a normal guest! No table not even a mention of the booking. Terrible customer service. I still had a good evening with my friends but has deffently put me of spending my money there in future!

Being near the station it's less busy than the seafront pubs during the summer. There's an extensive sheltered back garden with large tables. Inside it's a modern style pub, designed to attract a young clientele of an evening, with large TV screens. Drinks choice is fine if you're a lager drinker - this isn't the place to look for real ale. Staff were friendly and the food was cheap. Quite a long wait for food, and it wasn't really worth it - large portions, but describing the quality as average pub grub is a little generous. I'd stick to the chip based offerings - the Nacho's were pretty grim. Semi-drunk young men swearing in the garden didn't make for the most pleasant of atmosphere. It's not somewhere I'd recommend for a family with young kids.

We decided to pop into Cramptons for Lunch as it was easy to park in the Train Station and other younger family members had said how good the food was.As we walked in we realised that we might have made the wrong choice as it was very busy and it seemed like every table was in use. We were welcomed by a lovely young lady behind the bar who asked if we were eating, When we told her that we would like too, She said that she would take our order and by the time it was ready we would be seated. As soon as she had took our order and walked away we were asked by another young lady who must have been about 16 if we needed anything or if she could help. We explained that we were just waiting for a table, Within a couple of minutes the manageress, Who may i add is the politest person i have ever met came over and told us that a table had become free at the back of the bar, We were told that there was a wait as it was busy as all the food was cooked fresh. We sat down at a table which was near the back door and my husband just mentioned that it was a little cold due to people going out in the garden, We were checked on again before our food arrived and i told the young girl that we were fine as i could see that there were no over tables available anywhere else in the bar, My Husband then told the girl that he was a little cold because we were sat by the door. She apologised and told as she would ask the boss if anything could be done, Which i thought could never happen as the bar was full. With that a man who looked about seven foot tall appeared looked over and then walked off to the front of the bar. Next thing we knew the manageress walked over and told us that our table was now available, As we sat down our food arrived and we were again checked on another couple of times, I had the chicken bbq melt, My husband and son in law both had burgers and my daughter had a baguette. You could tell all the food was fresh and not one of us could fault the food, Compliments to the chef.Yes we had to wait because it was busy and yes the as Pat G has said in her post the seating could be a little uncomfortable but everything else was excellent. The Staff and Management were Fantastic and on the ball, The food was excellent. As we were about to leave i was still curious how we managed to get another table in such a busy venue so i asked the young girl. She told us that the all the staff are tpld to look after all the new faces that walk through the door and that the Manager had asked a group of 4 men who were regulars if they would sit at the bar to accomerdate us in which they were happy to do . Well done Cramptons, The Davies will be back soon

Fab food, atmosthere, friendly staff, reasonable prices, great weekend nightspot and simply the best DJ in town. Dj Jammi!

Great 241 on drinks during the weekends. Def makes it worth the money. Can get a little bit chavvy there on a fri or sat night but worth going for the 241 before u go down into broadstairs. Would be nicer if cramptons was down the bottom of the high street because then would be more likely to go there esp during the winter months! But overall it is worth a visit!

good food, helpful staff, but I found the seating uncomfortable, few cushions, and it was cramped, but would go there again with friends.

I have been several times for lunch at Cramptons in Broadstairs.The meal-deal menu is ridiculously cheap at £5 for soup or garlic bread plus a daily special (maybe not daily but changed every 3 days)The food is AMAZING.The staff are pleasant, attentive, interested in you, happy to help, always say hello and goodbye (which makes a change these days)Mention must go to Paries, Jordan and Holly (all 3 work at lunch-time during the week)

Visited here several times for lunch and always good quality food. Excellent value £5 meal deal for starter and main at lunchtimes. Would recommend if looking for good reasonable pub food at great value.
