Po' Boy in Thanet

Staff were very nice and polite.The chips were amazing as always I would always recommend going here 10/10 If you ever go here you must get the prawn pot😍

If you get the chance this is the best place to go for food in Margate, the homemade chips were absolutely lovely, the tartar sauce was amazing as well, the staff are really hard working and sweet people and your guaranteed a good eating experience in the outside seating near the sea front and in the sun or shade. I couldn't recommend this place enough!

Average food served here today. In the tuna tubs. Good location on the seafront and lovely views but really thats as good as it gets. Would we return, Probably not.

After heading down to Margate for a Bike Show we discovered Po'boy whilst wandering along the seafront. Safe to say best Fries I've ever had with seaweed salt for seasoning and the Fish Tacos again best I've had in the UK! 10 out of 10 recommended and great customer service with a smile 😊

Friendly staff, fresh food, good portion size, very tasty, great location, perfect scenery. A cool little find. Highly recommend.

Extremely tasty prawns and fish. Delicious salads and fries!! Very friendly staff, freshly prepared and quick to arrive !

Very tasty food but ruined by the chips being extremely salty. I couldn’t eat half of them as it was just too much. Will definitely go again but best to ask them to hold the 🧂

Lovely relaxed setting right on the beachfront. Excellent seafood street food with a creole twist. Staff very friendly and helpful.

I don't know why we haven't visited before because wow! Amazing food and such a good range of vegan options. Returning next week for more...

What an absolute find! I was thrilled to have stumbled across this amazing place. The staff were wonderful and I was completely blown away by the choice of food. I was so indecisive but one of the ladies suggested that she choose something for me and I'm so glad she did. It was flavoursome, tasty and probably something that I wouldn't have ordered for myself. I would love to come back here and eat again.

Asked a simple question about vegan options. Was told to look at the menu. When queued again to order I was asked by one of the team ‘you are looking at me, is there something you want!?’ And then pointed to another queue. I decided to spend my money else where.

We had our family here from London for the day, and this place was very handy for both the beach and the train station.We had two portions of spicy Fish 'n' Chips, one traditional Fish 'n' Chips, and a Prawn Salad.Not the cheapest, but of good quality, worth the extra money. Food arrived within a reasonable time, was well prepared, hot, and most importantly very tasty.We sat on the Sun Deck, and could mix the food and drinks from the other outlets.

love love LOVED the vegan tacos, and the seaweed salted chips were YUM. Sat in the sunshine with the music on, soaking up the sun. Our 6 year old said the kids fish n chips were v good - his only complaint was that there wasnt enough of it!! Will definitely be back.

Food looked nice but we didn’t stay - I asked for a high chair for our baby - they don’t have any and scoffed at the request - SERIOUSLY?

Couldn’t recommend the food more. The Cajun fish and chips are a favourite of ours, as are the deep fried pickles . Our three year old loves the kids fish and chips too so perfect family food. Always served by really lovely people too. The Cajun spice is delicious, goes perfectly with the fish and its crispy coating. The chips with seaweed salt on are the perfect accompaniment to dip into a variety of the moreish sauces they have. We’ll be going back again and again!

I couldn't give an honest enough review on how tasty the food is because words aren't enough, you must try for yourself. I recommend this place to anyone I know visiting Margate. I've not stopped thinking about it since my last visit. The food is 10/10 along with the service. I'm praying a Po' Boys is opened in Deal soon!!

So pleased Po'boy is back! Always incredible food, fresh and so so tasty. The fish is perfectly cooked and the chips make such a nice change from the bog standard chippie chips. Great value as well, really fills you up, felt very satisfied. It's really popular but well worth the wait, very friendly chefs. Side note, this is not regular a fish and chip place. If you don't like spiced and interesting food, then perhaps go elsewhere.

I went there the first time today and ordered the creole fish and chips. The chips were really salty and the fish was covered in spices so that you could not actually taste the fish. After a couple of bites I had to throw the food away as I really didn’t enjoy it (and I’m not usually picky with food). I wouldn’t recommend it. If you fancy fish and chips just go to an ordinary fish and chips shop.

Stopped by for lunch at a weekend. Their Creole fish and chips was a cracker. It was at its heart a really well cooked fish and chips, but the addition of spices and a sauce with a feal zing, helped it really stand out. One of more interesting fish and chips I've ever had. Quick service and sensible prices completed a very good meal

Had a lovely lunch here in the sunshine outside this cute, colourful café. Service was friendly and efficient and great measures in place. Enjoyed the samurai prawn roll; huge, crunchy prawns, terrific summer slaw and a kick from the pickle. Highly recommended!

Wonderful samurai prawn po’boys. Amazing Covid safety system set up - a lot of thought has been put into keeping people safe using a numbered collection area.

The cafe is located near the sea front with some seating outside. They're very well set up for social distancing. The food is tasty - creole fish was particularly good, the po boy sandwich wasn't like any I've had in the past but was great with a good level of spice and the samurai tofu salad was really filling with excellent flavours. The chips weren't as crispy as we would have liked but not a deal breaker - I'd still recommend the food here. The staff were really friendly too.

Great food, great location. Fish is fresh and the chips are great, also the specials are excellent..

Have been to the restaurant in Margate, this one was at Broadstairs food and drink festival. We ordered the Prawns and dip with a wicked sauce. Brilliant, very tasty other food was on offer which all looked good.

Fresh air and fresh fish, all very nice but unfortunately not quite perfect.... Fish and chips for nearly £10.00 is not exactly cheap but the fish was very good, chips were not bad, a bit soggy. What I did not like was the accommodation, hard bench seats and rough tables, no plates, just cardboard trays, disposable knives and forks, no serviettes , you get the picture, the presentation was poor. A nice sunny day was aslso a bit spoiled by some screaming little kids, however that is not the fault of the Café. Anyway on the whole a good experience and worth a visit if you are near the seafront.

We had a late lunch here and it was perfect, the children had fish fingers and chips, real fresh battered fish, I had the creole fish and chips which was amazing and my daughter had the prawn salad which she said was the best thing that she had ever eaten! In fact she said that she would like to eat here every day. There is a really good very laid back atmosphere, a glorious sea view and smiley staff. Beautiful.

We were blown away at how good the Prawn Po’Boy was! Such a unique combination that worked! It was a large portion as well. My husband got the scallop Po’Boy and said it was really good as well. Highly recommend this little seaside place! Craving it now!

Not expected to visit only because my kids asked to have fish and chips. Amazing kids meals and recommend to family visit. Very close to the main beach.

I can honestly say this is the most amazing place that exists to buy fish & chips! The quality is insane and the flavours just incredible. With their ever expanding menu the place just gets better and better!

One look at the menu posted on the fence put it at the top of my list of places to eat. I'm in Margate two nights, and I'll be back there tonight to try the lime scallops. I had the Samaurai Prawn Salad - wonderful flavours and colours. As a pickle fan I had to have a side of battered gherkins ... aaah. The young woman serving was really nice and very helpful. Thanks.Sitting at a table on the promenade overlooking the sea on a sunny evening eating this wonderful food. What could be better.

4 hungry punters transcended all the way from old town, down to the sundeck, Roughly a very pleasant 10 minute walk. We had heard excellent reports on how good Po'Boy is and I'm very pleased to say we wasn't disappointed. We had Creole and Traditional varieties which were thick cuts of fish with the crispiest of batters and both coming with wonderful skin on thin fries, served with either homemade tartar sauce or mango and lime sauce.....delicious. We really couldn't recommend it highly enough, Fantastic food, service, sundeck and views, keep up the good work and I look forward to coming again.

Had our lunch here facing out to the sea on a lovely but windy day. The menu was exciting to read, but we knew straight away what we wanted. Scallop Po'Boy and the salmon salad along with a small portion of seaweed salted chips. On reflection, I think we would have both had the salad options. Having said that all the food was utterly delicious, the dressing on the salad was delightful, fresh and super tasty. I had a can of rhubarb pop and my sister had ginger-lively and lovely!We liked the food was served in recyclable tableware and the knives and forks we're wooden. Having just done a beach clean the two top items we picked up were Plastic forks and straws. Made me quite cross.Very happy to rate as 5 stars

Great vegan option with the deep fried tofu either as a sandwich or salad. They’re doing something special making tofu taste that good! Awesome chips. Great sauces and fresh tasty salad. Bang on!

Wonderful little snack shack cafe overlooking Nayland Rock (which is a great place to forage for old steamer crockery and other treasures, at low tide). The food is great fun and very tasty. We went last weekend on a cold day and sat indoors with lovely spicy mackerel rolls, and those excellent chips. It really comes into its own on a warm evening. Incredibly friendly staff too. Winter felt too long without them.

What a joy it was to eat here! The staff were so friendly and were more than happy to explain the dishes on offer. The cajun fish and chips was delicious and the rest of the party were very happy with their dishes. Watched the staff cook the food and prepare it all fresh. Will be returning in the summer.

Where to start..? AMAZING that's where I will start.... Flavors Flavors and more Flavors all up in your face.....

What an absolute treat it is to eat here; the Bang Bang Tofu is amazing (as is the Samurai Tofu), and I love that you can have your meal as a salad or a po' boy. I always go for the latter, despite having the best intentions of not stuffing my face, and having a salad instead. Can't help myself though, the food is sooo good!

Po’ Boy is our reward to ourselves at the end of the brilliant Viking Coastal Cycle Trail! The setting, right on the sea-front, is glorious but the food would not be out of place in the finest restaurants. The fish is wonderfully flaky-fresh and the panko coating, both Creole and Traditional, is crisp, dry and delicious. Do not confuse this food with regular, soggy fish ‘n’ chips, it’s on a different level altogether!!

We arrived at Po Boy Margate and were greeted by the most animated young man called Tom who actually owns it! He is passionate and engaging and was telling us all about his traveling that had led him to open Po Boy. We ordered a Creole style fish n chips and a traditional fish n chips and OMG, it was delicious!!! Service is incredible, the tastiest fish n chips ever and located on the Seafront! What morw could you desire!? I even helped Tom with marketing the brand new Take Away side of his business....

Love the food from the Po Boys team! Everything is fresh, locally sourced and their flavours are exotic while also being accessible - they're a great choice even for the fussiest of diners.

Menu looked really interesting and full of creole flavours so we went for a less traditional version of fish & chips & had Cajun crusted and fries, with mango and chilli salsa. The crust was thick crunchy and incredible but critically the gorgeous piece of fish inside was flaky and moist. The salsa wasn’t at all bland, you could taste the mango. Minted peas finished this off nicely although the ‘guac’ peas would have been just as good a choice. Scallops, prawns and more traditional flavours were available too making it kid-friendly but definitely provided something more adventurous for the fish and chip lover.

Our fish and chips were much tastier and less oily than the same dish in the much more expensive (not to be named) restaurant in Margate. The kids meals were demolished quickly (a great sign) and the Po’boy was super fresh and tasty.

Fabulous fish and chips and scallop po’boy. Fish obviously very fresh and nicely cooked. Great food, lovely surroundings and friendly staff. Recommended

Such lovely tasty food. Had samurai prawns which were fabulous. Great view, friendly people and amazing flavours. A must visit.

Came here for lunch with friends on their recommendation and very pleased we did! The small menu is still varied and interesting, with something for everyone - catering for vegan/vegetarians too. I opted for the special Po’ Boy, the Bang Bang, which was delicious - fantastic creole flavours, light and crispy batter on the prawns and crunchy Asian slaw. Really well balanced and excellent value for money. I’ll be back to try the fish and chips next - they looked delicious!!

Visited Po’ Boy for the first time and the food was top class. The staff were really welcoming and friendly. I will definitely be coming back !!!!

Now we officially tried all the food outlets on the Margate's revived 'Sundeck' and Po'Boy like it's neighbours was Fantastic! Lovely fresh fish served in Creole style batter - not to spicey, just really really tasty! The Chips? Cooked to perfection with Seaweed- so nice! Kids portions are available also and are served with juice. Some could say £9 for a portion of fish and chips is expensive? Maybe, but the atmosphere and all round good family friendly vibe of the sundeck makes it all worth while. It is just that little something different away from the Old Town & Cliftonville. The staff are really friendly and are more than happy to help! Cant wait to get back and try the Crab Burger! Keep up the great work guys.

Took my mother here for a little birthday treat as she loves fish. The fish and chips were amazing. A very interesting menu means we will have to come back! Life is hard!!!!

Visited the Sun Deck today and strongly recommend. From the delicious menu went for Vietnamese Fish Cakes and salad - and they were so so good! They even accommodated my sensitive (fussy) pallet with a milder mayonnaise and no chillies!

Visited twice on our recent one week stay in Margate. Fantastic idea, executed well. Panko scallops with yuzu dressing and crispy shallots a highlight, but my son’s fish ginger sarnie went down surprisingly well as did the Cajun fish and chips. Well worth a visit.

Ate here for the first time yesterday and was so impressed, we came back today!

We loved our lunch- the fish was so fresh and the flavour combinations were inventive and delicious. Would really recommend.

Samurai prawn salad with Japanese pickles and the most juicy, plump prawns. Beautiful weather, happy vibe and tasty food - what more could you want?

We were looking for somewhere a bit different and came across Po' boy a Creole inspired fish hut next to the beach. Locally sourced ingredients with an innovative menu. Delicious fish and seafood. Give it a try.

Just stopped on a whim to share a portion of fish n chips with my partner to tide us over until the evening stew. Had the creole fish n chips, and it was sensational. Chips were a french fry cut, but double fried, and were luscious.The fish was super-fresh tasting, and the spiced crusty batter was lush - a really nice combo of fresh-tasting spices, which didn't overpower the cod: really nicely done! To top it off, it came with a small pot of amazing limey salsa, with a great hit of chilli.Would love to be able to make this - appears to have banana in it: I bet it's top secret!

Really delicious, humungous Po' boy sandwiches. One of the best things to eat for lunch in Margate. The calamari was amazing! Only problem is it is so massive you can hardly get it in your mouth! Make sure you order some chips, they are skin on and well nice.
