Mariners Bar in Thanet

Came to Ramsgate for a day trip whilst staying at a caravan site in Canterbury. This beautiful pub/restaurant has such curb appeal. The staff were friendly, the surroundings were quirky and really clean. Food was amazing. A little gem.

What a gem . First time to visit Ramsgate and it is a lively, clean and tidy and felt safe there. The Mariners bar was a great place to eat and drink and was typical prices but the atmosphere and decor was spectacular with quirky bits every which was fantastic. The staff were extremely helpful and efficient and the food we had was very good. The place was exceptionally clean and positioned opposite the marina.

Cheese ploughman's was fab. Great value for money

Great entertainment, cold beer, good friends!

Just love this place. Staff excellent.. food excellent... sea view ex ellent

If they’re not busy, expect them to put chairs on tables/switch off music around 1015 to get rid of you. If they’re not busy, expect them to put chairs on tables/switch off music around 1015 to get rid of you.

No food on this occasion. Open mic 🎤 on Wednesdays, which was refreshing, a nice evening with a pool table. Nice friendly place

Excellent place to drop in if your on your own, safe place.

We ate the pizza and it was a good dough, except that it was raw underneath. With a little more attention they would have served a better product

Not very welcoming. The steak and ale pie , the pastry soft and meat not tasty, not very nice. Not worth the money. Would not go there again.

In Ramsgate for the day called here for lunch. It's a friendly pub with character and good bar selection. We both had the fish and chips and thoroughly enjoyed it. Recommended.

Very cozy place, delicious beers. 🙂

Great value for money. All day breakfast £7.95. Friendly service. Liked the individuality & character of all the decorations. Live music on Fridays. Smashing marina location

Just popped in for a pint of Neck Oil very nice.

We visited the Mariners Bar in Ramsgate as a family of 2 adults, 2 kids and 2 dogs and were made to feel welcome from the minute we arrived. It was food we were after and the evening menu differs from the daytime offer which was no problem for us. Pizzas and sides were ordered and the pizzas were enormous, topped nicely and Delicious - hot and fresh! Went for the chicken satay, chicken wings and fries as sides and again the portions were incredibly generous. The bar man (possibly owner?) was friendly, helpful, we couldn't have asked for more. We'll be back to try the lunch menu!

The service, place, and price was amazing. Loved the food. Only the food was too oily for me.

Brilliant food, friendly staff, comfortable place to eat.

Waiting 10 minutes to be served at the bar, 3:15pm on a Saturday to be told "no more food" without an explanation, despite another person ordering food one minute before. Shocking.

I always really enjoy coming here! Dog friendly, wonderful staff and the food is always a really good price and very tasty. Today I had the funniest fresh pizza! One of the few places that serves food past 4pm on a Sunday in Ramsgate. Thanks guys x

Popped in for a meal whilst on holiday in the area. Really nice pub, loved the decor. The food was good and reasonably priced. Dog friendly, my dog was offered a bowl of water.

Very nice place, good food, shame no beer on gravity

Great pub on the harbour front, we called in for a light lunch, but I opted for the mega breakfast 🤔, I wasn't disappointed, the pizzas and Chicken and bacon salad looked great also, call in see for yourself, thank me later.

Have walked past this pub many times on the way to the spoons but this time we had the dog as well as the kids. Wetherspoons don’t allow dogs and then the pub opposite the spoons doesn’t allow kids! This pub is brilliant. Friendly staff great food and all reasonably priced. I really liked it in there. Will definitely be making a first stop now on any next visit to ramsgate

We had a delicious pizza here. The service was super friendly. It was especially nice for us that our dog was welcome.

Staying in Ramsgate for the first time and this pub was next to our hotel. Came in for the evening and was impressed. We received a warm welcome from the lady behind the bar who was v helpful. The decor is pretty cool and so many things to look at including the tables ! Take a look to see . Ordered pizza which was excellent value for money and enjoyed by everyone. I would recommend a visit

My wife and I decided to call into Mariners Bar for an unplanned lunch. We were impressed with the menu selection. I chose Thai red chicken curry from the Specials board, my wife had the BBQ chicken pizza. Both served in a timely fashion. Fresh and hot. Mine was superb, and my wife claimed it was the best pizza she's had in ages. We will be back. Highest recommend.

Pizza are great just a little slow at times and Christmas decs are best arround

It was busy New years day so staff were busy running about.

Lovely pub with amazing interior, you'll have a real seagoing vibe in this place. Highly recommend.

Great stop for a coffee, beer and food with the dog. Friendly service from the staff

Great staff welcoming and live music.

Nice pub good location friendly

Perfect for the post new year dip coffee and lunch with kids! Kids ate Pizza adults had a mince pie and tea/coffee. Tge Pizzas were very nice, well priced and came with a good atmosphere Christmas decs were lovely, kids loved the interesting tables (and sinks in loos). All round hit! Dairy free alternatives would be a bonus though!

Love it. Popped in for a cup of tea and a bacon sandwich. Excellent value.

Lovely friendly pub, landed here on works Xmas doo, had a great band on in a lovely atmosphere.

What friendly place. Made us so welcome when we stayed at the Trevel Lodge next door with our dog.

Beautiful pub, loved the decor and taken a great deal of pride in their Christmas Decorations. We were having a rare family get together for brunch. Having waited over an hour for our food, whilst watching others come in, order food and leave having eaten. Our food eventually arrived.... cold, the toast was brought before the rest of the food and that was already cold. The one before last meal arrived which my husband said wasn't too bad, although the chips were mainly burnt and inedible. We eventually decided to complain to a very rude barmaid who made some unprintable remarks to a man sitting at the bar. Because I prefer my tea with my meal, I didn't drink it, expecting my meal, eventually asking her to pop it in the microwave, which she did, but to be honest would have been better to have to made me a fresh one. By this time everyone had either eaten or not bothered because how cold it was and mine never arrived at all. Yes we did get a part refund and won't be returning. At no time did the barmaid/waitress come over and apologise for the delay or warn us that it was a long wait. In terms of pubs and cafes I would say they were not particularly busy, constant but not busy. They need to take a trip to The Racing Greyhound and see how a pub/restaurant is run.

I am going to go out on a limb here and say these are the best cheesy chips in Kent. Good size portion, well cooked, just the right amount of cheese - properly melted and not burnt- and sriracha sauce. You'd be amazed how many pubs get cheesy chips wrong. So yeah, 5 out of 5.

Home made sour pizza dough... well worth a try not to mention the sides, wings some of the best I've had for a while.

Mariners was recommended to us for breakfast. Love the decor all ocean related . Good service and good food .

Visited the Mariners Bar this morning for breakfast before we left Ramsgate. This was the first time attending this venue. On the inside it was being decorated for Christmas and was looking fantastic. We chose this place because they allowed dogs in, which was perfect for us and it was next door to the Travel inn which was were we was staying for 2 nights. The wife and I both had full English which consisted of 2 sausages,2 bacon, mushrooms, beans, fried egg, 2 slices of toast and mug of tea x 2. Everything was tasty and well cooked. The dog had a bowl of water, piece of bacon and sausage from my plate and she no complaints :) The lady that served us was friendly and made us feel welcome. If we return to Ramsgate, I would definitely return to this venue because the menu which they serve all day, had a good selection and had something for everybody. I would recommend this place to family and friends.

Was very quiet due to ☔ rain. But this place offers one of the best breakfasts in Kent..

Has a good selection of drinks, often had good live music.

We visited the Mariners Bar on a family break away. We were not expecting much, however we were very pleased to have found a real gem of Ramsgate. The staff, especially Laura, we're incredibly friendly. The pub had a refurbishment during the COVID lockdown and it is absolutely fabulous. The attention to detail and the decor all add to make a great ambience. The pub is wheelchair friendly and dog friendly. The menu on a Tuesday night a smaller pizza and sides menu, but we had a fantastic meal which was very reasonably priced. We visited the next day on a Wednesday and there was a different, much fuller menu choice. However, even the pizza and sides menu had plenty of choice. Chicken wings, salt and pepper squid, garlic mushrooms etc. The pizza was cooked to perfection. It wasn't crowded so it was easy to get a table. Would 100% recommend this pub to anyone.

Brilliant bar, food is fantastic, the Lady that served us was very friendly and helpful, lovely atmosphere, A very nice place to hang out and have Food you will enjoy it x

No Disabled Toilets had to use Ladies as Gents was Downstairs but enjoyed our Lunch.

Nice freindly bar and the food is good

Very nice, lively pub. Good beer. Live music. We could sit outside

Great friendly pub. A wide range of spirits and beers 🍻. Lovely mix of clientele from young to old. Live band when I visited, playing a great set of rock hits that had the whole pub singing. Will be back soon 👍

Staff were very rude! Would not return again! Date was 27.08 around 9pm. Additionally Bombay Bramble gin is red and not orange, as this is my regular drink of choice, I do know what it tastes / looks and smells like! To be told by the female staff in question, I didn’t know what I was talking about was offensive and rude!

This pub is beautifully appointed with a nautical theme and interesting resin tables however, the bar staff are miserable especially the manager and they put cheap Rum in their Bombay bramble bottle. If you’re not local you’re not wanted.

Always friendly and good live bands for a fun weekend evening

Original pub on Ramsgate Harbour.

Clean, tidy bar with great atmosphere and good service. Nice place to stop to quench your first and fill your belly

Loved it, proper pub with a lovely bay window view of the bay

A bit grim. Boring bar choices. Whacky decorations in toilets now look like vomit.

Nice boozer in prime position on the harbour, live bands every weekend, always lively.

Large sports pub as you expect. You can follow many sports here via the screens. Friendly and large range of beers and ciders

Best bar, great food, great music and best live bands 💯.

My first time of attending the regular jam night on the first Wednesday of the month. It was well run and thoroughly enjoyable with a good standard of musicianship. The atmosphere was friendly, the staff were attentive and the venue had laid on a free buffet for all the customers.

Fantastic service. Will definitely visit again. Lovely atmosphere.

I thought the mussels were slightly over cooked, But better safe than sorry

Seafront bar in Ramsgate with a mix of bands at the weekend. Bands vary greatly from the good to the mediocre! For some reason you get an inordinate number of idiots and gobby women in attendance at the weekend! Getting served can be an issue too as people tend to attach themselves to the bar!

We popped in to make sure they had pizza bases before walking dogs and asked them to save two for us, which the barmaid said was fine. We said we'd be an hour. An hour later when we went in she informed us that they had no more pizza bases - she didn't think we were coming back. Why employ people like this? We've been in here loads of times but never again.

Really enjoyed an impromptu lunch here. Great value for money, lovely food. Will return.

Lovely harbour front pub. Worth visiting just to admire the fishing theme decor. Good pub food menu and friendly people.

One of the best atmospheres in town when it comes to friday nights! Got Pool and lots of live bands :)

A simple pub and very simple food. Shame as it’s a great position.

Great boozer. Nice and friendly staff, great service and top quality ale. What more could you want.

Always a friendly welcome - food great, drinks even better, atmosphere chilled. Good honest pub grub served with a smile. Cheers

Fantastico pizza! I am a very very fussy customer when it comes to pizza. it has to arrive piping hot, it did. It has to have topping all over the pizza, right to the edge, it did. It has to be a nice, cooked, thin base, it was. It has to be big, and flavourful, it was. It has to be value for money…. it most definitely was! I can wholeheartedly recommend The Mariners Bar as a great place to go for a pizza and a drink…. it really was fantastico!

Great atmosphere with live music. Nice pub in general, staff polite and friendly. Clean, good choices of beers, well worth a visit. Get your dancing shoes on.

So this is shame, I have been to the Mariners for lunch with my father in law who lives in Broadstairs a few times and we have had a lovely time and the food has been great, but unfortunately the last couple of visits the service has been shocking, I have felt very unwelcome, the latest being this evening I brought my sister for a drink thinking the mariners would warm and welcoming, what a mistake!! We walked in and had to squeeze in at the bar and then the blonde young barmaid basically ignored us and proceeded to top up locals with their drinks without acknowledging us at all, so we waited patiently and then another local spilt his pint so she obviously that meant he should also be served before us, honestly we we’re invisible DONT BOTHER unless you are a local or you will not get served!! So rude

Had a really lovely evening here. First time visiting the town and was made to feel so welcome. Fantastic interior with staff that really take pride in their place of work. Managed to catch a bit of open mic night which was great! Wish we could have stayed longer! Will definitely be back when next in the area and highly recommend. Thank you for a lovely evening. 😍

Nice food and plenty of. Although this was our third choice of meals as the tuna wasnt on the menu and the last fish and chips had been sold, at 12.20 ?? Anyway that small detail to one side , the food was tasty and extremley good value. We shall return. Lovely decor and clean.

Banging little pub really nice decor and really good vibe the staff were very polite and friendly, the pizza was banging! If i visit ramsgate again i'm deffo coming back!

Great music venue and friendly atmosphere

Always have the best time here weather it's an afternoon bite to eat and a pint or a night out listening to some live music. Always friendly and helpful too.

Friendly staff reasonable prices and good live band, right opposite the harbour.

Had a lovely meal in here,wife had lamb shank n I had a pulled pork burger 🍔 😋 couple of drinks really good,great views of the harbour its a really nice pub.

Nice bar always makes a great effort with Christmas decs 👍😊

Lovely staff and great selection of drinks

Lovely festive atmosphere beautifully decorated most welcoming . Catch up with friends for a Christmas 🎅 drink 🍹. Happy place to visit friendly staff . Everyone welcome .

Great beer great music great day 👍

A nice clean public house with interesting wooden tables with glass in the middle ( youll see what i mean). Friendly, cheapish and good food. We had the fish and chips. We loved the video jukebox type of thing on the walls. Central location. Dog friendly.

Great Halloween decorations, great live music, the pizza is great, and the decor is great. Perfect.

Pizza was amazing! Friendly staff and not too busy

I love the friendly family-oriented staff here and the upbeat vibes especially on a weekend, highly recommend coming down for the live music and pizzas served fresh til 10pm :)

Amazing bar good drink and lovely helpful staff

Love this place,great atmosphere

Very nice pub . Excellent home made pizza...

Friendly pub , have a live band on Friday and Saturday huge gin collection Has a pool table

Really lovely pub, great decorations with all the boating things. Fantastic selection of gins, and very friendly and made us feel very welcome.. Will definitely be going back!!!

Bloody fabulous pub! Quirky interior and possibly the most spotlessly clean pub I have been to. Didn't try the food, but what was coming out of the kitchen looked amazing. Great prices, really friendly and welcoming staff. Highly recommended!

This is an excellent pub - had a nice bit of live music on, nice sound setup and good mixing of an acoustic evening, nice 'band' area. We sat outside as I had my little dog sweety with me and I enjoyed the sea air after quite a long drive. The bar is really nice with a nice selection of beers and ciders, both draft and in the fridge. It did get super busy but the staff done a great job in making sure everyone got served. I would say this bar is beyond 'dog friendly' its SUPER friendly ! The lovely young lady gave my little dog 3 ribs which he utterly devoured - the trouble now is hes turning his nose up at his dog food ! My little dog sweety got plenty of positive attention with nice punters and friendly staff, even tho it was a busy Friday I had no problem stting outside with Sweety, was a great evening and big thanks to staff for such a warm welcome and giving sweety some lovely ribs!

A quirky, very welcoming pub, with lots to look at. All staff very friendly on both visits. Bar Menu food was good value and delicious, especially the chicken and bacon salad. Evening pizzas made fresh to order....very tasty and filling....gave us a take-away box, luckily! Highly recommended. Only disappointment was lack of ales.

Nice harbour front bar, friendly staff, good range of drinks, great live music venue.

Food ok. Service totally unacceptable. Waited 45 mins for meal. This was outside of lunchtime rush Only 12 people in pub and when we asked what caused delay we were told it was really busy!!! Don't touch this place.

Great concert on Friday evening 😊

Made most welcome good ale and lunch as expected empty plates all 6 of them bar girls very good just call me grandad ladies
