Dropped by for a quick post work drink. Not all that busy despite the fact there was some classic tunes I haven't heard in years being fires out of the jukebox.

We were hoping to fins a busy pub with a good live band. Instead we found an empty pub with a dejected band packing away their gear. Friday's aren't good to this place apparently.

Ramsgate Brewery (Gadds') - Left Coast Conspiracy5.50AcceptableThis wasn't up to scratch really. Quite flat and tired.

Here to see the band 'Melonheadman'. We were 3 out of the 6 total customers in, felt a bit sorry for the band. Still a good night though and the beer was in really good condition.

Ramsgate Brewery (Gadds') - No. 35.00ExcellentPerfect pint of 3.
Ramsgate Brewery (Gadds') - 80/-4.60ExcellentThis is a great beer. Really malty and sweet with a sort of toffee vibe going on.

Just dropped in for a swift one before heading over to Broadstairs. Pretty quiet for a friday night but then it was the first weekend of the new year.

Braved the extreme weather and found myself in here early on a Thursday night. Surprisingly busy considering how evil it was outside. Had a couple before moving on whilst there was a break in the rain.

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.
