A beloved Margate institution serving delicious, hearty meals since just after World War II. Under its current ownership since 2000, we continue to uphold our reputation for quality, tradition, and outstanding service. 

We specialize in traditional English breakfast, sandwiches, rolls, freshly made baguettes, hearty jacket potatoes, and a variety of classic lunch options. Whether you’re after a quick bite, a full English breakfast, or a large takeaway order, we’ve got you covered. Place your order in advance, and we’ll have it ready when you arrive! 

Proudly awarded “Best Breakfast in Kent,” we are also home to the legendary Mega Breakfast, famously conquered by Pete Doherty. We are passionate about serving only the finest ingredients, sourcing locally whenever possible ensuring every meal is as delicious as it is satisfying. 

Join us at The Dalby Cafe for a proper breakfast experience in Margate where great food and warm hospitality come together. Proudly serving new customers and our community since 1946.
