Breakfast at it's Best - Possibly the Best Cafe in KENT

A Fry up breakfast at it's best - and quite possibly the best in Kent. I used to eat breakfast here at The Dalby Cafe in Margate many years ago. I have returned to Kent today to find out if the quality of food is the same as it was.
The answer is an easy YES. In fact it's off the charts.
This breakfast is without question in my top 3 breakfast ever
There is nothing like a greasy spoon breakfast when the food quality is as good as this. Completely off the charts from the bubble, over easy eggs, amazing sausages, fried bread & that fresh bread that leaves your finger prints in because of the freshness.
Just Wow.
With a cheeky tour of Margate showing where only fools and horses was filmed, the Turner Centre, Margate Old Town, The Lido and Dreamland.
To see more of my food eating locations in and around London:

Amazing. I remember that cafe! I was in Margate so often in the 80’s, we’d get off the train head to Dalby’s, go back to the front for a walk around and then spend the rest of the day in Bembom Brothers aka Dreamland. Looping Star, the Mary Rose, scenic railway. How we kept those breakfasts down was a miracle! Happy days. Jolly Boys outing is my favourite episode of my favourite comedy of all time. Thanks DJ for bringing back those memories

The couple on the waltzers in the black and white Dreamland photo at 6:00 is my Mum and Dad, circa 1951. Our family, including my parents, didn't know of the photos existence until the summer of 2018 when it appeared on the wall outside Dreamland, just a few short months before my Mum died. I always enjoy your videos.

I'm a Whitstable boy. Took my daughter down there for breakfast on the back of my motorbike for her 15th birthday. Rodders and Del stopped of at the Roman Galley just outside Herne Bay. There is something special about the British sea side.
