Unplanned visit thanks to my curiousity - the bar was open with a small range of keg beers on offer. Friendly welcome and just a short stay as my friend suggested catching the 14.00 open top bus waiting to Broadstairs. Who could resist such a temptation!!

Late afternoon and well timed visit as there were just a couple in front of us in the queue for a table and we didn't have to wait long to be seated. Well organised, great atmosphere and efficient table service.

I have put this score on behalf of Dosser who is having problems logging on to this site. This is his score, not mine.

I cycled right past this at first and down into the marina area - then had a good climb back. Well worth it, the sky was brilliant blue and clear. I sat by the pool and enjoyed my pint.

The pub is found in Ramsgate, Kent, CT11 0HE.

Pop-up pub, originally spin off from the tiny Ravensgate Arms that was struggling with the Covid-19 social distancing rules. Has utilised the old boating pool just off the Royal Esplanade. Tables around the edge of the pool with good sea views. Service from a hatch through to the bar area within the crescent shaped building. Has a Mediterranean feel to it. Re-opened May 2022 with new name and operators.

We have visited this pub 6 times, seen 7 different beers and tried 5 of them.
