Thursday soon after opening time, we enjoyed a couple of pints,and a chat with a man who is hoping to open a micro-pub at Wells-next-the-Sea in Norfolk. There were three ales on sale at the time of my visit.

First visit to Thanet's newest micropub and I really liked it. Very cool and modern yet very comfortable, another good addition to Broadstairs.

Website.

The pub is found in Broadstairs, Kent, CT10 1LR.

First incarnation was a former Pet Food shop converted into a micropub in 5 Charlotte Street specialising in cask ales and ciders. Opened on the 30th November 2012. The casks were visible racked behind the bar behind glass frontage. High tables with similarly high wall mounted bench seating abounds. Plans to relocate to a nearby much larger street corner premise at 11-13 Charlotte Street came to fruition on Friday Friday 5th May 2017 and this originally incorporated a brewhouse for what would have been Broadstairs Town Brewery perhaps in 202??! but it never came to fruition. 8 handpumps and 10 keg beer taps in the new location. Bar billiards upstairs where is some extra seating too. The new venue is too large to be a micropub so best called an alehouse or really just a pub. Change of name in 2024 and now with 5 handpumps and 18 keg taps.

We have visited this pub 93 times, seen 165 different beers and tried 107 of them.
