Beach Buoys - Margate

I visited Beach Buoys in Margate with my dad, who is vegetarian but used to enjoy fish and chips. We decided to try their vegan options for lunch. I opted for the chicken burger with vegan mozzarella, onion rings, kale slaw, gochujang ketchup, and fried pickles since I don't like fish. Unfortunately, I didn't enjoy the burger as it was greasy and fell apart easily. The lack of ketchup didn't help cut through the grease either. The others in my group also weren't impressed with their banana blossom fish or battered vegan sausage. The fried pickles were the only highlight. While the restaurant has a cute pink storefront by the sea, the prices are high and the food quality doesn't justify the cost. It may be better suited for fish and chips enthusiasts, but the service was also lacking during our visit.

I absolutely adored everything about this restaurant - the atmosphere, the variety of options, the convenient location, and the affordable prices. I was pleasantly surprised and thrilled to see that they offered vegan dishes, which were clearly highlighted outside. It was also great to hear that they use a separate fryer for their vegetable oil.

I used to love the vegan fish at this restaurant, but unfortunately it's no longer available. However, I was pleased to see they now offer vegan battered sausage and a vegan alternative to katsu fries. The vegan options here are still great.

Have been twice now. The service is hot or cold. The first visit i was 'served ' by a stroppy adult teenager yet the second time the guy couldnt have been friendlier (different staff members) the banana blossom fish didnt taste good. There were plenty of chips but a third were under cooked. The second time i had just chips and again they were not cooked properly and the portion was small for £4. Pop along to shakey shakey in ramsgate instead if you want a decent meal

Loads of variety and pretty huge portions. The banana blossom was great but the battered tofu was particularly good! Recommended Updated from previous review on 2023-08-13
