Homemade pizzas cooked in a clay oven. Stunning views over the harbour. My favourite pizza is the parma ham and rocket! It's wise to book at weekends and school holidays.

Vintage meets modern at Margate's oldest and newest attraction. Boasting the oldest wooden rollercoaster in Europe, this is a great day out for all the family. There's even a rollerdisco! It's free to enter, so even if you don't go on any rides you can go see what all the fuss is about, try your luck in the penny arcade and grab some doughnuts on the way.

So there's a few reasons we go to this cinema religiously. But mainly because it's £2.50. Yes, £2.50. A ticket. We're not even kidding! They show recent films, in an old cinema. And it doesn't even smell funny! Did we mention it's only £2.50?

Arts & Culture

Some call it the 'Big Ugly Shed', but I'm pretty fond of this grey structure! Beautiful stark architecture with world class exhibitions.... lucky, lucky Margate. It's also FREE!!! Great little shop too, with more than just the usual tat.

The most curious museum of collections of an explorer from !896, through to collections of archaeology and anthropology. Odd, but stunning. Also stroll through the magnificent gardens, check out the House dating from the 1400's, then grab a cream tea at Mama Feelgood's on the way out. What a jolly English day out!
