Nestled in the heart of Margate’s historic Market Place, Mullins Brasserie offers a truly unique Caribbean-European fusion experience that sets it apart from other local eateries. The Mullins Brasserie Menu is a thoughtfully curated celebration of bold island flavours blended with European finesse-an inspired choice for diners seeking both comfort and novelty.
One of the standout elements is the attention to authentic Caribbean ingredients-scotch bonnet, plantain, jerk seasoning-elevated through refined cooking techniques. During my visit, the Jerk Chicken Breast with rice and peas was a flavour bomb: beautifully charred with a smoky kick, yet tender and juicy on the inside. Equally memorable was the Pan-Seared Sea Bass, served with a lemongrass-infused coconut sauce-delicate yet punchy, offering a refreshing twist not commonly seen in British seaside restaurants.
The starters and desserts on the Mullins Brasserie Menu also show great thought. The Salt Fish Fritters were crisp without being greasy, and the homemade rum cake, served warm with vanilla ice cream, delivered a decadent finish. Vegetarian options are available but relatively limited-something to keep in mind for plant-based diners.
What truly elevates Mullins is not just the food but the atmosphere. The intimate setting, jazz soundtrack, and knowledgeable service create a dining experience that feels both upscale and welcoming. Prices are fair for the quality, averaging £18-£25 for mains.
In comparison to other Margate dining spots, Mullins excels in originality and consistency. It’s not trying to please everyone-it’s delivering a confident, flavour-driven menu for those ready to explore beyond the usual gastropub fare.
For anyone visiting Margate or locals looking to discover something new, Mullins Brasserie is a must-try. Book ahead-it fills quickly, and rightly so.
