Oast

"Early risers or keen morning dippers should head straight to Oast. The neighbourhood bakery on Northdown Road is pretty much busy from the moment it opens at 8am. And with almond pastries this good, it’s easy to see why. Margate locals come by to fill their totes with fresh sourdough or baguette so good you’ll be tearing at it on the spot. Of the pastries, the golden almond creation, loaded with paste and flecks of chocolate is a delight. But so too is the saucisson and gouda croissant. Given the airy space with more than a few places to sit, it’s a lovely spot for an early morning catch-up." - jake missing, daisy meager, sinead cranna, rianne shlebak
