Dairy free alternatives would be a bonus though!"

"we have been completely contaminated by the quality of food. this must be one of the best restaurants in margate by far. friendly staff and together with our dog casper was very welcome in the dog friendly area. the Mexican food mixed with Sunday dinner is really inventive. the cocktails were amazing and even the dog was given gravy bones and water. our dog was so chilled that he even asked if we could go back to lol."

"We first went to Turkvaz 2 or 3 years ago when they had an extensive Turkish menu and it was amazing. They then switched to mostly pizza and everything was still ok. Recently, Turkvaz has dived in every area of quality. We ordered two weeks ago with the intention of the food coming before we had to attend an event. The food took over an hour to arrive on a quiet evening as it took the driver 35 minutes to travel less than a mile. Why? Because the old man in the blue Fiat 500 delivering drove up and down our road for 15/20 minutes looking for our house whilst driving up the kerb as he was on his phone using maps. I wouldn’t mind but it’s a perfectly normal, wide road and only has 6 houses!! Food was late, cold and not that nice, so that was a waste of £25 as it went straight in the bin and we had to leave. Fast forward to last night, nice family takeaway completely ruined by the food. We thought we’d give Turkvaz the benefit of the doubt as we have all eaten here before. It all just tasted bland like paper. The grease on everything was disgusting, the doner meat wasn’t fit for human consumption and the pizza (which they specialise in) was a box full of bland grease. No one felt particularly well after eating here. They also missed out the pitta. This is a fair review as we’ve all eaten here many times and can see the quality going down the toilet. Big improvements need to be made and we won’t be returning."

"We popped in here for a bite to eat after strolling round Margate. We looked at all the menus, and found that this was simple fare and looks welcoming I had a full breakfast and my partner had the vegetarian version. The food was well presented and given with a good smile by our waitress. The options of tea and the fact it was loose leaf was good. If you’re in Margate, and fancy a cuppaor a bite, this is a great place to stop"

"Went last Wednesday for a bite of lunch down by the harbour in the sunshine. An unassuming place from the outside. The Cafe is divided into 2 parts with the second being a retail area which we didn 't try. Archive Cafe has an interesting display counter where you can see exactly what 's on offer. Inside seating area different aswell as a clutch of outside tables looking over the harbour. We chose a couple of quiches from the specials with salad. Mine was Mushroom blue cheese a side of coleslaw, all made in the kitchen. loved every last mouthful. Followed it by a Mixed berry Swedish bun, just so moist packed with flavour a coffee where clearly the barrista knew their stuff a mere americano at that. Worth searching out."

"As soon as I arrived in Margate,after leaving the train station I could smell the basil, the garlic, the chillies,...I found Pam Asian and went I got in my heart shaped, the most beautiful lady I have ever seen was in front of me , she was shining like a flower in spring, I got lost in her bubles. I ordered Chicken Satay and Red Curry and sticky rice. Sunny was the most delightful dish of the night. I am so in love, she is so sweet and sour. I hope to see you again lovely Sunny."

"Repeat customer when in the area on business. Hidden away in Minster, it perhaps doesn't get much passing traffic and relies on local repeat customers. It is the best in the area way better than other similar places in the big towns. Food decent quality and alway cooked fresh, on the spot, to order. Great staff friendly to everyone. I always go for chicken shish and hummus and it's always been excellent. If you're in the area this place can't be beaten."

"We were on holiday in the area and saw on TA that this place does excellent Sunday lunches, so I called them up and tried to book a table. The lady I spoke to said they don’t take phone bookings, she couldn’t see the booking...system and told me to use the website online system. So I did. I submitted the Form and got an automated acknowledgment. I heard nothing back. On the morning of our booking I rang the restaurant and politely enquired if they could accommodate us for lunch … the same lady said “hold on, I’ll check” and she came back saying they were fully booked! Half an hour before my requested booking, I got an email confirming they were full. What a complete shambles of a booking system."

"We reserved a table for two at this restaurant. The ambience and location were beautiful. However, we found the prices to be too high. The Sunday roast menu promised a variety of meats, roast potatoes, Yorkshire pudding, and other accompaniments, but we were disappointed to receive a small portion of meat, two undercooked potatoes, and one carrot. Additionally, we ordered bread and olives as a starter, but were only served six olives. We noticed that another table of two, who had also ordered olives, received a larger portion. The restaurant also adds a service charge to the bill. On a positive note, they were able to accommodate our request for a table that could fit a pram. Overall, I am unlikely to return to this restaurant due to the high prices, lack of flavor, inconsistent service, and poor food quality."

"Popped in for a drink before heading off for our meal. The lady that served us was very pleasant and served with a smile. Options on tap were varied altho my friends had the ale I wanted a shandy and the lady gave me options of lager. Nice atmosphere. Hadn't been here in years since we used to visit to see Blow the Duo. TV screens were on but not obtrusive. Plenty if good seating including sone lovely looking booths. Really nice bar."

"We have been eating at this restaurant for a number of years and it’s such a great find. We are a half Persian family and so grew up with Persian stews and kebabs eaten both at home or in restaurants in London and of all the Persian restaurants we’d tried, the kebabs and hospitality at this place are the best. No ifs, no buts. It really feels like we’re eating at a friends house because there’s so much care and attention in both the food and the service. It tastes just like my aunty’s delicious food when she visited from Iran I’m baffled that others can say it’s not authentic on here when they’ve not grown up with Iranian food.Last night I brought some friends to try, many had never tried Persian food before and were blown away. The only disappointment was that they couldn’t finish their plates because they’d ate too much of the starters (not a bad problem to have! All of the food was delicious from the kashke badamjan to the joojeh kebab koobideh. Each time we visit, Ali always says to call in advance if there’s any items not on the menu we’d like them to cook you just don’t get that level of attention at other places.Thank you for hosting my friends and I last night and every other time we’ve been to your restaurant with family friends. We drive an hour each time from Maidstone/the Isle of Sheppey to come and we wouldn’t bother making the trip if it wasn’t worth it each time. Keep doing what you’re doing.Looking forward to seeing you all again next time I think we’re planning a trip next for my brother’s birthday in November and probably a few more in between to get our Persian fix!Ian Hajyzamanali"

"My family and I visited Caption Digby for a birthday celebration on a Sunday and had an excellent experience. The service was exceptional with all staff being friendly, patient, and accommodating. They were very attentive to our younger family member who has allergies, ensuring that their needs were met and providing safe options. The bar staff were also great and the food was delicious. We often choose this restaurant for family gatherings because of the fantastic soft play area for the kids to enjoy while we wait. Overall, we have always had positive experiences here. Tracey and her team provided excellent customer service, always greeting us with a smile and being helpful. The food was worth every penny. I highly recommend this restaurant for family events, especially if you have young children. A special thank you to Tracey for rewarding the kids with chocolate after they cleaned up the soft play area. They loved it!"
"We visit as a family or on our own most days and have never had a bad experience.All the staff are so kind and welcoming and nothing is too much trouble.The food and variety is excellent well cooked and presented.We were literally counting down the days for Corbys to reopen after lockdown and so pleased that the business continues to thrive after the uncertainty.It is really important to support all the small independent businesses we can't do without them.Thanks so much to you all.."

"Very slow service. Very limited menu. Poor value for money. We ordered bread and olives for the table. We received a small bowl of olives, three slices of sourdough bread (for 4 diners? and some flavoured butter no plates or butter knives. The menu had recently changed and was more limited than the summer menu. The only vegetarian main dish was unavailable, as it had apparently not been prepped. The chicken and leek pie had been heavily flavoured with a herb (tarragon? which was not mentioned on the menu, and which gave it a very strong liquorice/aniseed flavour. The pie itself was very big, and generously filled, but very much more leek than chicken, and the chicken appeared to be thigh rather than breast meat. The haddock and chips was generous, but the skin had been left on the fish. The single dessert ordered (rice pudding had an excessive amount of topping which overpowered the flavour of the rice. Service took so long that we were at our table for well over two hours."

"Afternoon Tea for fourYou had to order at reception and pay before you were seated so didn't realise until when we got into the dining area that it was completely empty. No one was even having lunch. We were served one sandwich each with the crusts cut off so the sandwiches were tiny. There were 4 pieces of chocolate cake which was overly sweet and very dry and also 4 small pieces of lemon cake. The scones were freshly cooked and lovely however only one pot of jam and a small basket of crisps to share between four of us. All in all not worth the money. This is worst afternoon tea we have ever had! The worst part of all was my friend went to reception (as there were no staff about) to ask for more tea and was charged for it! Absolute rip off don't go there. Have had better hot lunches for half the price at better places. Drab and dreary decor but big canvas print of owner in her younger years in dining hall??"

"This restaurant was absolutely fantastic. The food was delicious, especially the veggie breakfast which had an incredible veggie sausage made with whole foods, not fake meat. The avocado was also sensational. My cousins tried the crushed avocado and smoked salmon toast, which was amazing, and the full English breakfast, which was delicious as well. The server was friendly and accommodating, especially with my specific egg request. I highly recommend this restaurant, it deserves a 5-star rating. Thank you."

"Very disappointed after many decades of my extended family and I having been loyal customers, we have been treated disrespectfully by the staff. We started a new pool team this season after previously having a team there. The table is basically unusable due to its condition and I had to take my own pool balls! We were promised this would be sorted before the league started, but nothing has been done two months in, we were just fobbed off with excuses! The other teams were complaining about the table. To cap it all off the darts night clashes with the pool matches and the darts board is in the area needed to play pool. I spoke the interim landlady to try and get it sorted out and she was extremely rude and told us to leave. No wonder so many pubs are closing with attitudes like this! Such a shame that what was once a lovely family pub has been allowed to go downhill so rapidly. They have lost a lot of what were once loyal customers who would have spent a lot of money in there on a weekly basis!"

"It 's rare I post a review on trip advisor. Most people seem to use TTrip Advisor to moan about somewhere they went and didn 't like or actually threaten a place with a bad review to try to get either a free meal or a heavily discounted one (sad but let 's be honest....true} ANYWAY, I only tend to post a review on somewhere if I believe it to be exceptional and this makes the grade. I grew up round here and many many years ago, this place was a run down seedy sort of pub. Now it 's a fabulous Boutique Hotel and Restuarant/Cafe and the short version from me is just WOW! I 'm fully aware of what the hospitality sector is going through at the moment as my wife works within it so naturally when we both get the chance to go out (which isn 't often enough) she is a fierce critic and spots every detail because it 's what she does herself. I on the other hand just say what I think! So........ given the Covid-19 stuff, this place had a great one way system which is not difficult to follow although I 'm sure someone will try! Tables and chair are socially distanced both inside and out in the garden with nice polite signs asking not to move furniture as it 's been placed for optimum social distancing. The staff were very friendly and made us feel very welcome. This is always a bit part of anywhere I visit if I 'm honest So on to the food and drink.............. We were recommended by a friend to come here and have breakfast. The coffee was amazing (apparently a local blend from Canterbury but I can 't remember the name) and had a great taste to it. Nice and strong and not wishy washy Then on to Breakfast................ I went for the simple and humble Bacon Egg Sandwich which you could have on a choice of breads. Not stingy with the bacon and the bread was lightly toasted. My wife had the Plymouth Rock which basically makes a Macdonalds Sausage McMuffin look positively anemic (see the picture I 've posted) and she loved every bite of it! We also liked that we were supplied with a nice ice cold bottle of water too (I presume tap water) which was a nice touch and worthy of mentioning as not many places do this and personally, I love it! All in all, our experience was one of great enjoyment, as I mentioned, when your wife has worked in the industry for almost 30 years and can herself do everything from Silver Service to proper Barista Coffee (hence why I 'm spoilt when it comes to coffee), it can make you a rather harsh critic but both she and I loved our visit today. Pulling off the experiences we had today I know are much harder given Covid-19 but they had all that sorted We only have 3 gripes. 1. Neither of us get much time off together and we not wish we did as we want to come back as soon as we possibly can 2. We wish we didn 't live round here then we could book to stay here in their hotel side and 3. We wish we 'd ordered the doughnuts too after seeing some being brought out for another table just as we were leaving They looked amazing! Like I say, I don 't use the Trip Advisor platform to moan. I use it to shout about somewhere that is worth shouting about. Independent businesses have got it tough at the moment given all the Covid-19 stuff so if you 're anywhere near here, go and pay the Falstaff in Ramsgate a visit. You really wont be disappointed!"

"We frequently order takeout from this restaurant when staying at our caravan in Monkton. The food is fresh and delicious. The curry sauce is not too spicy, unlike some Chinese restaurants. While the prices have increased compared to our usual spot in Essex, the portions are generous enough to feed at least three people, so it's still worth it. We will continue to order from here, as we truly enjoy the food."

"What an absolute rip off! Was looking forward to a decent English Breakfast at £18 pounds a pop, over £50 for 2 with tea!!!! How could it be so disappointing? 2x hard eggs 1x under cooked inedible sausage, dry tomato and stale sour dough bread, so over crunchy when toasted. Feel like I have been taken for a fool. I will not be making the same mistake again, and will advise friends to avoid avoid avoid! I don’t normally write reviews, but honestly this dining experience was just unfair."
