Cafe Darcy — Restaurant in Thanet

Have come to cafe darcy before and it’s been passable… on the last occasion I was handed the kids menu for my 5 year old. When the waitress came to take my order I asked if the milk that comes with the kids meal could be exchanged for a different child’s drink and my child doesn’t drink milk. I was told it can’t be. I asked if I was expected to pay for a different child’s drink to which the reply was “yes” I said that I don’t find that fair in the slightest seeing as a cup of squash is cheaper than milk and just offering milk with the child’s meal doesn’t leave much of a choice. I said we’d leave it. If it was me id have tried to accommodate as much as I could. Then, after saying what my child would like I was told it wasn’t available. I chose something else, was told that wasn’t available. I asked what was available and there must have been one thing on the child’s menu available. Why wasn’t this told to us as we were seated and passed the child’s menu? I said that we’d rather go elsewhere and it’s a shame as we’ve visited the cafe a few times. Instead of the waitress being apologetic and trying to find alternatives so they received our custom she just stood there and laughed. As we walked out we were blanked by every member of staff. Cafe darcy is nothing but a wannabe glorified greasy spoon with awful...

Major let down after work colleagues were raving about it.

FIRSTLY I ordered 2x bacon sandwiches. The bacon was cooked in reused oil so it was black on the surface and DRY! AS A BONE. Awful.

SECONDLY. It come with hash browns. 2x for each sandwich so there were 4x hash browns that I NEVER ORDERED but mus have PAID FOR. So weird to PAY for something you did not order.

THIRDLY. They need to take the FLAT WHITE off of The menu as they do not know how to make them. You can't just pretend to know. I basically received a FROTHY COFFEE.

The only reason I'm not giving it a 1🌟 is I'm going to give it a second chance. If still bad I'll give it a 1🌟 if good then...

Cafe Darcy is one of my happy places in Margate. The food is always very reasonable in price, cooked well and filling. The staff are welcoming and always happy to help and have a chat. Very well positioned to start your day with a nice cooked breakfast with a number of vegan and vegetarian options available.

The photograph shows the pancakes, poached eggs and avocado with bubble and squeak on the side and the top plate of pancakes bacon and scrambled eggs with hash browns on the side.

A particular highlight is the way Tracey decorates the place for Pride, Halloween...
