What visitors say
A lovely pit stop definitely makes a change, you don’t have to be a Hornby fan, reasonable prices and good for the family or just on your own

I was in Margate to take someone to the hospital and as there was no parking there we parked up here and popped in for a drink. I did think that the prices might have been cheaper on the sea front as the bacon butty here was £5.75 and I thought at @Horrnby the ingredients would come out on a plate and we would have to fix them together ourselves
