Oddfellows

You'll find Oddfellows tucked away on Hawley Street, away from the seafront chaos—exactly where a proper pub should be. It's the kind of place where regulars have their spots at the bar and the landlord actually knows what you drink. The real ales rotate, the lighting's warm without trying too hard, and there's none of that trying-too-hard gastropub energy. Just honest pub food, decent company and the kind of atmosphere that makes you want to stay longer than you planned. This is where Margate locals actually drink.
