Cramptons Bar in Broadstairs offers a mixed experience that reveals both potential and pitfalls. While many patrons appreciate the generous £5 lunch deal and commend the staff’s friendliness and attentiveness, some report disappointing food quality, notably tough burgers and soggy rice. The atmosphere is generally inviting, highlighted by a beautiful beer garden, but the decor shows wear. Complaints about service speed linger, suggesting a need for improvement during busy times. Overall, Cramptons stands out for its value and welcoming staff, yet it faces challenges that could hinder a consistently satisfying dining experience.

After not visiting this restaurant for a couple of years, we were pleased to see that the standards have not slipped. During our lunch visit, all necessary Covid restrictions were in place, including table service only. Despite the restaurant being fairly busy, we were attended to promptly and our drinks were brought to our table quickly. The two-course meal option is now priced at £6, up from the previous £5, but st... View all feedback.

What simonj612 dislikes about Cramptons:
When the food finally arrived, I took a bite and immediately spat it out. The burger was tough and overcooked, with an overwhelming amount of sage. It was truly disgusting. The chili con carne was okay, but the rice was soggy. It's a shame because the restaurant has potential with a good chef. I felt like I was in a Gordon Ramsay moment. View all feedback.

Our first visit to a pub after the lockdown couldn't have been better. The staff, especially Luke, were all so friendly and accommodating. We were surprised to learn that Luke had just started that day, but he made us feel right at home. The food was delicious and the drinks were even better.

I have been to Cramptons twice this month with friends celebrating my masters . I can say they have been absolutely brilliant observing the complex restrictions and keeping everyone safe . I work as a clinician and spend my day in ppe trying to protect others and myself , so was important to me then when I go out I felt safe . Despite the added pressure of restrictions staff have remained attentive, considerate and polite . Well done Cramptons

We booked a table for 5 and the weather meant that we could sit outside. Great meal and so was service. We do come here now and again because of the prices and service. Always recommend this place.

I have visited many times for lunch as they do a good deal at £5 for starter and main. The staff are friendly and the food portions are generous. Unfortunately, it takes an age to get your dinner and myself and several of my colleagues have stopped visiting as it takes too long to get food if you're in a rush. I won't be returning unless I have plenty of time unfortunately as my lunch still hadn't arrived and I had to go back to work. The more senior staff dealt with the complaint maturely although the younger one didn't inform me there would be a wait and claimed after 55 minutes I'd only been waiting 20 minutes.
