Amongst the rides and attractions is what I think is the oldest wooden roller coaster in the country. They also stage some good concerts in the evenings.

This is in the centre of Broadstairs further down the same street as Morelli's, the recommended ice-cream stop. Great for a very competitive family mini golf competition

Reasonably priced and there is a lovely terrace overlooking the bay on the first floor level. Free refills of coffee and we always walk there from Broadstairs and then treat ourselves to a reasonable priced cooked breakfast.

A great traditional pizza place. If you have small children with you, Prezzo's which is right next door is very child friendly. Both have covered terraces out the back in the summer if you want meal overlooking the bay.
