This back-street local is named after a boat once berthed in Margate harbour. The pub first appears in the local directory about 1832. It was a tiny front parlour pub in a terrace known as Belmont Cottages. In 1890 the pub incorporated the adjacent cottage. Its Victorian saloon bar is a classic of its type. This heirloom of a bar retains the original backdrop with its inlaid mirrors and superb gilt leather frieze.
One star - A pub interior of special national historic interest
Listed status: II
A Victorian pub thought to have been refitted in 1911. What we have now is two rooms: that on the left is the saloon (named in one door panel), and public bar on the right, believed to have been divided into two in the past. The bar counters in both have the same detail but that on the right appears to have been cleaned of the dark stain apparent on the left. The L-shaped cut-glass, mirrored bar-back on the left is particularly notable: the curved cornice has cherubs picked out in gold.
