Quinno _ left this review about Harbour Arms
Quirky nautical themed micro on the arm of the harbour enclosure, converted from what I took to be an old fisherman’s storage unit. They've done well on the interior which is nicely cluttered with various bits of nautical ephemera and sea blue paint but without feeling too contrived. The front patio affords a nice sweeping vista of the bay. A selection of board games for punter entertainment alongside a nice laid-back selection of classic 70s tunes at a sensible volume. Four stillaged cask from a cold room and 13 ciders; my Westerham 1965 was in good nick (NBSS 3.5). For the snack-conscious, there’s a decent selection of pickled eggs and onions – the staff were openly egging me on (arf!) to have a chilli egg which was actually rather good. In a first for me, the pub’s toilet was a portaloo outside. Surprisingly not GBG24 listed but competition down here seems white-hot. 7.5

Another Margate pub in a fine location - at the end of the pier. Outside bench seating. Nautical theme inside.
Gravity fed beers - Darkstar Hophead a lovely drop.

Nautical themed micropub on the Margate harbour arm. A single square room with a pleasing light blue colour scheme on the brick walls, but not that you can see much of it behind the eclectic collection of nautical brick a brac covering all walls and suspended from the ceiling by several fishing nets.
Three ales from the barrel and for my visit these were Breakwater Harbour Gold , Severn Brewing Amarillo and Mad Cat Plum Sauce Porter. I tried both the local Kent Brews and they were in good condition and the Rhubarb Cider from the dozen or so ciders available here went down well with the good lady.
We had a fine weather lunchtime and were able to utilise the outside benches which were catching the sun and in that respect this was a good visit.
I liked it here but Mrs G didn’t find it as comfortable as some of the other Kent micros on this trip.
