| Ramsgate Brewery (Gadds') - Little Cracker | 5.00 | | Turned out to be, by far, the best beer of the evening. Can't understand why this house is not in the Good Beer Guide. |

Mid evening visit. Midweek quiet. Very friendly house that really deserves to be a Good Beer Guide entry so I hope it will be one soon.

The pub is found in Ramsgate, Kent, CT11 8NN.
Busy corner pub right in the centre of town in King Street. Attracts a mostly alternative crowd and there will often be heavy rock music on the jukebox. Several large TV screens for sport enthusiasts. There is a raised area to the rear. 3 handpumps on the lower bar counter. Deservedly awarded a CAMRA Good Beer Guide entry for 2021.
We have visited this pub 192 times, seen 58 different beers and tried 41 of them.
