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!

Excellent Smashing little cafe! Staff are very welcoming and friendly. Great vegan choices, lots of flavour to the food, plus reasonably priced. Always return.

This bakery feels like it has been picked up from Greece and placed in Margate, it is absolutely amazing. I had a stroll from the beach in search of something nice for lunch and I hit the jackpot. Pies, pasties, pastries, sandwiches, cakes…….. you name it they have got it. I got a ham and cheese pie and a spinach and feta slice both of which were delicious. I could rave on about this bakery but instead check it out for yourself & if Bakeries are your thing you are in for a real treat.

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

Small,warm and friendly. Really nice place for breakfast, lunch or afternoon tea. Extensive menu all reasonably priced and served by super friendly staff.

Wow what an Ice Cream shop, delicious home made Ice cream in both wonderful unique flavours and classic combinations. We had Pecan and Maple, Panettone and Pistachio Cream flavours - all utterly yummy. Not too sweet, rich tasting and creamy a real treat.

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

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.

Streets was recommended to us because it's dog-friendly and we like eating whole foods not processed. We hadn't booked but were offered a choice of a couple of tables. Great music and nice "street food" vibe ie undecorated and basic. It's a "small plates" Tapas style menu but of Indian origin. There wasn't a great deal of choice but we're quite adventurous so we ordered all that we liked the look of on the menu. Limited Zero alcohol choices. Service was casual. Tasty food but small portions, which left us a little hungry and expensive for the amount of food on the plate. Overall, it was an interesting meal out and seemed popular and friendly.

The bagels here are so tasty! loved the warm pastrami & egg and the warm egg with crispy bacon - would definitely recommend. Really friendly service from the owners who gave us some great local tips for our stay here.

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.

Nice coffee, nice people. On the more expensive end

One of THE BEST pizzas I have ever had . Would highly recommend!!
