SARGASSO

The 21 Best Restaurants In Margate

"While not quite London-on-Sea, there is a fast growing group of Margate restaurants that would slip comfortably into London Fields’ or Peckham’s biodynamic, small plates scene. Sargasso is one of these and, in fact, is the seaside sibling to Brawn in Hackney. The laid-back, vinyl-loving bar and restaurant looks out onto the North Sea from the pier, and a lively lunch can become dinner very quickly. A seat at the counter combined with the dulcet tones of Gil Scott-Heron and an oyster with chorizo will set the tone nicely. A schnitzel skate wing with the sound of the sea and candles dancing come dinnertime, even better." - jake missing, daisy meager, sinead cranna, rianne shlebak
