Not many guests here these days. Here for a pint after a funeral and no real ale in another pub.

Summary of Beer Scores
Website .
The pub is found in Margate , Kent , CT9 1XJ .
Typical Wetherspoon's, although at one time was a Lloyds No.1 Bar at the weekend thus got pretty busy and had music playing loudly at the weekend. Since early 2013 the formerly dance floor partitioned off area for weekend music has been converted to carpeted bar seating to make this Wetherspoon traditional through and through. 10 handpumps in 2 banks of 5.
We have visited this pub 85 times, seen 141 different beers and tried 77 of them.
