The best restaurants in Margate Central Thanet South East

We have been wanting to try this place for so long but first came the lockdowns and we always left it too late and it was booked up. Finally we booked ahead and got a table on a Saturday night for 2 of us.It was so worth the wait - this is a tiny treasure in Margate. The atmosphere was lovely - romantic and intimate, despite 3 other bigger parties on tables around us. wonderful music playing, delicious smells coming from the kitchen - we truly felt like we had been transported to Italy! And the food - simple, beautiful, incredibly tasty, fresh, authentic flavours. You could really tell everything was made with love. Every dish was perfect and bursting with flavour. The portions were good and both my meat loving partner and my vegan self, felt satisfied and happy. Really wonderful staff - just 3 of them, the owner and chef, the kitchen asssitant and the front of house but they worked together seamlessly. How they manage to do all this and so well, in a tiny space, whilst creating a relaxed, happy and warm atmosphere, is a true to credit to all of them. Many other bigger, higher staffed local restaurants could learn a thing or two from visiting Olivio! We can't wait to come back - a true treasure!

Had Lunch here and I ordwred the koshary . Pasta/ rice with small green lentails and crispy onions on top freash tomato sauce. With herbs spices . Delicious. Try the Herbiscus Egyptian tea . Hot or cold agsin Delicious!

We stumbled past this place by accident and popped in to get a few pastries and drinks to take away. The Bougasta Crema was so good I went back 10 minutes later to buy another for later. Great selection and great service, very friendly atmosphere.

Had the roast lamb delivered to me on sunday. Food excellent and fantastic service. I had no cash but food left with me and Gary then sent me his bank details to pay for my lunch

I popped into Margate during my lunch break in the hope of finding something to grab and take back to my office. I happily stumbled across this cafe but wasn’t sure if they did takeaway food. The staff were so friendly and welcoming when I popped in - gave me a menu and said it was no trouble to do a takeaway. I chose a salmon and creme cheese sandwich, all packed up in a lovely box with fancy crisps inside, and a latte. They were so welcoming and friendly - and another customer held the door for me as I left. Back at work, I opened my takeaway box to find the most gorgeous sarnie - thick white bread and a generous filling - which was perfect. 10/10 - what a happy surprise discovery!

The BEST BEST BEST ice-cream and wafer biscuit. Flavours change regularly I had the panettone this time Yummy Yummy Yummy.

Best take away I’ve had in a long time 😊

Couldn’t recommend no.15 enough to anyone, brilliant service and the food was amazing! Definitely go if you get the chance

What can I say, SubRosas bagel menu is hands down the best we’ve ever seen. All hand made with fillings made from local produce. The folk who served us were friendly and couldn’t do enough. Absolutely fabulous! Can’t recommend highly enough!

We tried Thanet Food Addicts for the first time this evening, amazing food, large portions, great service! We will definitely be eating here again. Would highly recommend.

Been using this place for years, and for good reason. Mainly outside tables, but with a few seats inside. Hot and cold pies and sandwiches, plus an inexpensive range of drinks and cakes, coffee is at £2 for a large cup. Some of the best attentive service I have found, a great place to enjoy a drink and watch the world go by.

Wet smilly and warm welcome Very good flat white Best place to get the sun on a frozen day !
