The Wig & Pen in Thanet

Clean well run pub with Gadds ales and sport on tv

Fantastic little pup, great service from Paul and Carl behind the bar, awesome they have the football on and love Arsenal and West Ham fans. Thanks chaps.

Lovely beer, but a TV screen in every corner playing football. Great if you want to watch football though.

A nice enough place that is my type of pub. Just a shame that the day I visited, it was empty inside and only 2 others outside on a sunny day! How ever........ It was a Monday, so might have been why! Staff member was very welcoming and was busy cleaning glasses and really looks like something they do a lot in there as really was clean everywhere! I'll definitely pop back again next time I'm that way!

Lovely pub hidden gem behind the Margate strip friendly staff not eaten there yet went yesterday afternoon pub so clean inside and toilets spotless will be back

Good pub. Watched the football so great atmosphere.

Nice pub and reasonably priced beer

A cosy traditional pub in the old town area, nice food although a tad expensive and a good cask ales. Friendly service

Perfect place to grab a beer and watch football with your friends. This American loved it!!

Great pub close to beach in the old town. Several TV's which have footy on...👍👍Friendly staff. Didn't eat, so can't comment on food.

Great pub watched Tottenham turn over Liverpool here. Polite staff and great people!

Stopped in for a couple of pints on a Friday night when visiting Margate. Lovely friendly staff, decent beer and a good atmosphere all round.

Great place Bars & Thai restaurant. V.busy sat night. Marvellous staf just needed another member Food outstanding 👌

Went there late one night for a drink and a pee when our bus broke down and we had to wait for a taxi. Was just before closing time and there weren't many people there. The barman was really friendly, nice chap he was. We sat outside. Some random bloke begged money from us whilst we were outside and the barman helped him along. If we ever end up in Margate old town again, I'll be sure to pay this pub a visit

We sat outside, very crowded but got a seat . We had a couple of drinks & enjoyed the sunshine.

Lovely pub, spent a few hours with friends playing pool, darts and chatting x

Very nice pub lovely staff Quite packed Maybe because tom jones is in town Went to see him very good show Good old margate 👍🍺🍸

Unattentive and borderline rude bar staff. Very poorly kept real ale.

Been here plenty of times, always a pleasure and staff are always very nice and helpful

Very rude staff and they are serving drinks in plastic cups. I would never go there again

Thorley tavern. Sells beer, stick to local breweries, friendly staff.

Good friendly atmosphere , good welcoming service

Just a normal pub, large tv, pool table and very quite except when football is in then it's god damn amazing.

A lovely boozer. Friendly staff, great beer and Ideal for watching football. Can't complain

A great pub with brilliant staff

as much a Pub as you'd expect. 10/10. would order a pint again.

Great selection of beers, football on big screens which isn't common around Margate and lovely staff

Friendly pub good to watch football

Great place to watch the football.

Always reliable beer and nice atmosphere

Good pool table and friendly service. Could do with a couple of new cues

Great place to watch live sports. Came across this while in Margate for the weekend and looking a place to watch footie. They’ve got a Thai restaurant upstairs too.

Homely pub, nice drinks, pool table and tv's.

Very friendly landlord. We'll worth a visit.

A very friendly atmosphere, enhanced by the roaring open fire. Excellent staff.

I happened upon this charming pub today and couldn't believe my luck. As I entered I was greeted with the most beautiful open log fire. It was burning brightly and the flames looked like angels dancing in heaven.

Cosy lighting and warming wood fire makes for a great atmosphere. Gadds No5 served in perfect condtion.

Excellent service and good Thai food

Great little pub in the heart of Margate.

Excellent Thai meal upstairs. Recommended.

Dont let the dark demeanour put you off , this is a clean friendly prober pub. Plenty of TVs for the sport and dart board and a pool table, what mot do you want

Locals spot in the heart of the town. Great example of a cozy pub. Great selection of cask and local beers, plenty of spots to catch the World Cup action.

Fabulous local beer at sensible prices. Thank you!

Nice pub and superb couple of beers

Stopped a few times on my way passed now lovely little pub really friendly staff dead nice

Friendly pub, service, and atmosphere.

Very lively pub friendly efficient staff I was there during the Margate soul festival so it was very busy

excellent pub, great pool table and lovely service

Saturday 13th August....So called 'music' all afternoon booming all over Margate. THIS GIRL CANT SING seems to be able to carry only one song 'Ain't no body'. She does however really like the sound of her own voice. This is giving residents of Margate GBH of the earhole all afternoon.

Lovely pub looking old but was created in 1986

Fantastic DJ set by Abbie Clark and the guys at Mi Soul!!

Very welcoming and friendly service. Also tried the food which was very tasty and filling. Will revisit when in the area again!

Best Thai Curry to die for upstairs....

Easily the best pub around and the only one i still use, well run and always clean and friendly.

Great atmosphere, amazing staff.

Lovely pub, lovely barmaid, be back soon

I would give this pub a 0/5 if i could. The guy behind the bar was extremely rude. Won't be going in there ever again.

Great vibes and a pub without of character

Very friendly staff..lively atmosphere..great time was had

Wonderful atmosphere, warm welcome ® McGuigan

Had a wonderful Thai meal above the pub then went downstairs for a pint had a great night superb staff quick service and a funny Kareoke night lovely little town Center pub and warm and comfortable well done

lovely pub, always visit when I am down from London, never got the locals only vibe

Friendly little place with great drink options

Lovely friendly pub good atmosphere and the Thai restaurant upstairs is well worth visit highly recommended 👍

Very friendly staff, helpful, welcoming vibe. Pool table available as well as outside seating.

Had a drink in the wig n pen on Bank Holiday Monday. Lovely pub and I thought it was a little expensive. The bar staff could have been a bit friendlier but I suppose they are only there to serve. I won't be in a rush to return as I like a pub with character.

Locals pub. Good beer nice staff

Superb Gadds No 5 and service excellent Amazing juke box on random. Steve

Best pub in Margate, fantastic food, great service.

Great time, good beer, excellent service

Nice friendly staff and lovely place to have a drink

Nice pub great to be out with friends again made to feel very welcome

Wasn't made to feel very welcomed at all. They were very suspicious of us and although the staff warmed up to us after a bit of effort on our part, it made us want to run away after one drink.

Quick service very friendly staff lovely location and they even looked after the dog

Very friendly and helpful. Beer good

Only tried to walk in for a bevvy to wait for our table in another restaurant, as we were a little early, and the barman, (old guy with glasses) was rude on approach, raising his voice stating "no, no mask, no entry", even though my partner had a mask on and I was medically exempt. After responding with this, he told us to wait. Yet, there were 3 guys near the entrance, drinking away with no masks present around their face. Probably because of colour, as we were both of the darker skin tone, but, who knows? We just didn't appreciate the way he handled it.

Ordered fish and chips beautifully cooked and really tasty good portion and chips were soft inside and crispy outside. Hubby had meat pie again really full of meat and pastry was lovely. Worth a visit good with Covid precautions.

Nice pub during such tough times 😷

Nice old school bar with friendly staff

Very quiet and Gin VERY expensive

Really well kept Gadds casks. Great pub for sport, or a quiet pint.

Decent prices and lovely trad boozer

Decent beer and great Thai food from Bow and her team upstairs.

Got in, got a drink and a table easily. Brilliant staff as well

They looked after you, and good food.

Love Bows - the upstairs Thai restaurant. Staff and owner friendly. Suggest booking as is very popular with locals and tourists

Excellent beer and service, loved it !

Went to Bow's kitchen upstairs, AMAZING!!

This place is a GEM...the food is fresh and prepared with love. Can't wait to come back.

Typical pub with very English decoration. You feel very welcome

Great place to have a drink made us all very welcome 👍🍻

Very worthwhile visiting. I called in on a Friday, fairly early, just after nine and the karioke was on, but no takers! However s good selection of tunes were played. Good drop of Gadds, decided on the IPA

Nice traditional local with Thai food upstairs.

Great pub we went for the Margate soul weekend and it was a long wait to get served. Would suggest they give the customers the cider bottles to pour themselves whilst they pour other drinks when there are 10 thick at the bar. Good atmosphere..

Fantastic bar staff vary friendly

Cosy pub. Good for watching football and has a pool table.

Fantastic food lovely venue and a lovely host. Very enjoyable experience
