High quality fresh fish and seafood dishes served in a tiny dining room. You usually need to book well in advance although you can also sit at the small seafood bar where take away delicacies can also be purchased. The restaurant is BYO and chilled wine is available at the off licence across the road. Wheelers is in the centre of Whitstable and easily accessible by bus

25 minutes on the train from Canterbury West takes you to the seafront in Margate. There is a large gallery (Turner Contemporary) a vintage funfair at Dreamland and countless bars and restaurants. The train to Margate stops en route in Ramsgate and Broadstairs which are also worth exploring.
