Tucked away behind Ramsgate’s Eastcliff, The Monty is a true, old fashioned backstreet pub
that has been serving the local community for many generations. A 20 ft mahogany bar top
dominates the Public Bar area (don’t be put off – the conversation at the bar will be interesting,
often informative, and always friendly) and extends into the carpeted saloon, sharing this space
with a tabled area (the tables are 70s retro chic, but they have been here since the 70s). The
Ladies Darts Team dominates here on a Thursday evening – they’re a raucous bunch, providing
much entertainment, and have also been here since the 70’s.
The Snug sits at the back, behind the bar, and is perfect for those board meetings. Follow the
corridors round and you’ll find the games room at the back of the property, complete with a bar
billiards table, and a couple of spiffing paintings by our own David Ridgway.
The Monty operates on limited opening hours and has a distinct rhythm to the week depending
upon the day & time. It’s up to you to discover what that is, but I will let you know that Sunday
Lunchtime is a bit special, and more than a little busy.
We don’t dance much, and we only sing late Sunday Lunchtime. We only do sport on a Saturday
afternoon and we almost never do food. We have no fruit machines and we sell no flavoured
vodka. But we’re friendly, we talk, we laugh and we drink great beer together.
