I've been here a couple of times for St. Patrick's Day celebrations; it's the only Irish pub in east Kent that celebrates as far as I know. They do lots of decorations, contests, and discounted Guiness. They treated my dog like absolute royalty. Great staff.
Busy lunchtime due to reasonable weather and we popped in for drinks and a cake each.
I had the pistachio and orange cake, it was sadly quite dry and not well flavoured. My wife had Coffee and Almond cake and she thought it was not as good as our many previous visits.
Tea for the good lady and I tried a Pink Lemonade which at £2.50 for a small glass of lemonade with a drop of cordial was not a great result.
We were talking about the Albion Inn to one of our children and we had arranged to go to Broadstairs that weekend. She said it sounded lovely so we suggested they come down and join us for Sunday lunch. Luckily her husband was not working that Sunday so we rang our other daughter and invited her too! We then rang the Albion and booked a table for 8 of us.
Unfortunately this weekend fell when petrol was running out and my husband spent a couple of hours on the Friday trying to get petrol. He went to about 6 different garages with no luck and then the station just next door to our shop had petrol and he managed to fill up otherwise we would not have been able to go.
Our daughter who has a 7 seater car and was driving everybody had the same problem. She had driven around most of Saturday and could not get petrol and told us that perhaps we should book the table for just the two of us as she did not think she would make it. However the little love got up at 6.00am Sunday morning and drove around and finally managed to fill up her car so we were all set!
The Sunday roast was amazing as always and as there were so many of us (5 adults and 3 children) instead of dishing up the vegetables on the plate as usual they brought them all along in different dishes, which was brilliant as some of the grandchildren do not eat certain things. We also had three gravy boats and two big bowls of cauliflower cheese. Everyone was fighting over this as it is so lovely!
This was all washed down with a bottle of Trapiche (an Argentinian Malbec which is very hard to get and if you do find it costs about £28.00 but here it is only £16.50), numerous pints of beer and soft drinks for the kids and my daughter who was driving. My husband had his usual crumble with ice cream and custard and the kids all had ice cream.
I then asked for the bill as I had told the family that it was our treat and closed my eyes but it only came to £142.00! Outstanding value for all that food and drinks.
Afterwards I went back to the flat, the boys went to watch Arsenal in the pub and the girls and kids went on the beach as the weather was lovely.
They thoroughly enjoyed their day and said they would love to come back so sorry if we were a bit loud and messy Albion but we had a brilliant time and everyone left with full tummies feeling very happy.
Special thanks to Michael (the gent who before helped me out of my wheelchair in the pouring rain) as he is so lovely.
We had been longing for a re visit here for some time. Absolutely first class in all respects. Thought it would be really quiet for a Wednesday evening but saw around 18 customers attending. Excellent position with it's own well illuminated car park. Choice of al a carte menus with varied set meal choices. Spacious reception bar lounge area where customers can meet and enjoy a welcome drink before being escorted to a very roomy dinning area. Not all crammed in either, plenty of room in which to enjoy a really tasty selection. Really excellent food. Very helpful and pleasant staff. We shall be making this a regular journey.
We ordered a takeaway from here on Saturday night. Margaretta and a seafood one. Both were cooked to perfection and we had garlic bread as well, which perhaps was a little dry. The staff were friendly and the restsurant clean. Added bonus it has a gin bar opposite and thats where we waited for them. We would go back.
Mum's favourite picnic spot, we love coming here even though we live 20 miles away. The staff are warm and friendly and the food is very good.
Sadly, I have been told this place has now closed permanently.

What a great place, came here to get fish and chips and it was amazing. It was all cooked freshly and whilst waiting had a great chat with the owner.
He was right. It was the best tasting fish I've had in ramsgate in years.
I'll definitely be going back.
In a tiny kitchen the chef conjured up a bowl of delicious bean and vegetable soup. It was a generous portion served with chunks of toasted sourdough bread and piping hot. Just what we needed after the chill of a November day. The little restaurant is in a quirky indoor market opposite the Turner gallery on the sea front.
Recommended this place whilst visiting Margate for the weekend, we ordered a takeaway for 12 people and we’re not disappointed whatsoever, the ordering process was delightful and the food was delicious. Would recommend Lotus Garden.
Terrible experience! It took the server sooo long to take the very simple order of the man on front of me on an i pad that she didn't seem to know how to work, while other workers in the cafe stood about doing nothing. Eventually I was served, I was told it would take 5 minutes, based on the slowness so far I left it 10 minutes. When I returned there was no sign of the food, I was told they would bring it to me, 15 mins later still nothing . My friend went back this time and so told another 15 mins! They said this was due to the problems they had with the chip and pin device, irrelevant as we paid cash! We asked for out money back snd went elsewhere. This cafe was great under the previous owners, I won't go there again- can't review the food as we never got any!
I have a beach hut nearby and used to use the cafe regularly , they have lost my custom and my friends!
