"Although they make a mean flat white and the crumpet sliders are incredibly moreish, the food at Cliffs isn’t even the best thing about it. Before we even tried the crunchy hash browns and the creamy mustard aioli that came drizzled on top, we decided this was a cafe we would come back to. Inside a record store on Margate’s Northdown Road, Cliffs is a fun, lively space with an excellent soundtrack of old classics playing. Baristas sing along to Dolly Parton, the huge floor-to-ceiling window upstairs floods the room with natural light, and records are displayed along the walls like a music hall of fame." - jake missing, daisy meager, sinead cranna, rianne shlebak

Families lounge on the sunken leather sofas and groups catch up over coffee on the big sharing table in the centre of the room." - Rianne Shlebak
"Another symbol of Margate’s new status as “Shoreditch-on-Sea” — Cliffs is a cafe, record shop, yoga studio, hair salon and coffee roastery. All in one! Sticking to the food, Cliffs does brunchy plates and speciality coffee; the kind of cafe in which one finds themselves surrounded by arty magazines on shelves and coffee table books on coffee tables. Sure there’s a good English breakfast, and scrambled eggs with soldiers, but there’s a kimchi cheese toastie, too, because they’re cool and delicious. Sandwich-wise, there’s a fish finger number and a vegan open sandwich, which is pretty much avocado on toast. Natch." - Adam Coghlan
