Visited here with my friend for lunch on the 16th Aug. We found a decent table outside, chairs were very uncomfortable. Music playing was reminiscent of a Greek taverna but became annoying as it was on a stereo played on a loop. All the sandwiches come with chips except the crab because, i was told “it’s quite a plateful”. I went ahead and ordered the white crab and lemon mayo open sandwich which at £12.50 I had high expectation of. Together with a glass of cheap tap lemonade and a small bottle of Perroni lager it came to £20.00! Sandwich was truly awful and certainly not a plateful. When I’ve had an open sandwich at other places, I’ve had both slices of bread just open with filling on both....
We were looking forward to a good roast lunch as a family, but were left disappointed. We dined as a group of 9 and there were lots of little issues that led to a bad experience. The roasts were advertised as beef, pork and vegetarian outside, but on the actual menus there was chicken, beef and vegetarian, when we asked the waitress about the pork it was shrugged off and we were told they didn 't have it. Not really the end of the world, but a shame. Then when we asked for a wine list we were told they didn 't have one and had to choose a wine from the list of Merlot, Shiraz etc etc . Then when the wine arrived the glass had lipstick on it. I wanted to order a mulled cider which was advertis...
Just left a very disappointing visit to the Albion Hotel Broadstairs. We have stayed and eat there numerous times over the last few years. Judging by the visit we have just had, we will have to think twice whether to visit again or not! We travelled over an hour to go to the Albion for fish and chips. We placed our order also ordering a portion of onion rings. We were then told they had run out of fish and also onion rings. Looked at a very limited main course list and ended up ordering two burger and chips. One with blue cheese. Was then informed they had run out of blue cheese. When the burgers finally arrived after waiting over an hour, the portion size and quality was very very poor. No...
Visited early Saturday evening and it was busy so had to wait a while for food, fair enough. The fish and chips were good but the burger was very very poor the bun was rock hard and inedible and the burger itself overcooked and looked like a small burger from the freezer aisle. We did complain but were just told that feedback would be given to the kitchen and nothing else… great but I’ve just paid £15 for a portion of chips that came with it. I don’t really want to deal with confrontation on a family meal so just left it at that but would have been happy to pay for the chips and not the burger. In summary, the food might be good or might be inedible but if it’s inedible then there is no refu...

I have to disagree with the negative reviews. Our family gathering of 4 cousins and our spouses had a wonderful dinner experience. The service was outstanding and friendly, the food was delicious, and the wine selection was excellent (especially the NZ Sauvignon Blanc). In my opinion, the prices were reasonable despite the inflation. Some people are too picky! Congratulations to the hotel team for a job well done!
We had a quick diner at the upper terras, with a view over the sea (and poor music). The fish and chips: small portion for the price we paid. The risotto: fine, but maybe too much. The chicken: was bleeding and had to be returned. The staff was impeccable and we were offered a refund for the undercooked chicken and got a complimentary bowl of crispy chips. Room for improvement in the kichen!
An excellent lunch with friends. The staff were friendly and helpful. The service was efficient. The food was well presented and very tasty. The portion size was more than ample and very good value for money. My wife is Gluten Free but her diet did not cause any problems. An added bonus is that the establishment is dog friendly. Can certainly recommend.
Extremely disappointed. Didn’t get all items on the full English menu considering it cost £11 per breakfast!
