An unremarkable Spoon. Rather plain, and with a dead atmosphere.

What a place. Full of diamond geezers and people with few teeth. They should change the name to the DHSS Arms.

Popped in at the end of May,top marks for the name of the place and also for the yummy pint of Whitstable ale quaffed. Shame bout the seriously slow service but mind due it was due to only one girl serving and the usual idiots ordering coffee's! 6.5/10

The place has been upgraded, a bigger choice of real ales and less "all day drinkers".
Still I wouldn't visit the place in the evening.

Use this place a lot,and it can be really up and down.Last visit they had both bars open,and only one person serving both.We left 20 mins later without a drink.
Other visits have been great,food is ok,prices are good,and drinks very competitive.Don't expect miracles,but do expect value for money.
As for Margate,yes it's a dive,but if you do happen to be here this pub is near the front,and vthe station.
