RAF Manston History Museum

very nice museum, informative. excellent pieces of machinery on display. nice cafe on site serving breakfast and lunch.

Spent a nice few hours here. Worth a visit . Cafe was excellent and popped over to see the Spitfire & Hurricane .

A must for all history and aviation enthusiasts.
Many exhibits and artefacts to view.
The staff are polite and informative and here you get close up to the aircraft.
Had a breakfast in the NAAFI cafe and it was really nice.
Allow around 2 to 3 hours for your visit.
One small negative was the fact that the outside aircraft viewing area did look a little untidy.
Overall the experience was excellent.

Brilliant visit today with my son (6yrs). The museum is jam packed full of things to look at - interesting displays full of information, models, the aircraft themselves(!) and they even had an activity sheet for younger ones to do. Really friendly staff and well stocked gift shop. Well worth a visit!

Lovely little museum, much more content than I was expecting. I would highly recommend it and the attached NAFI café next door.

Great museum with loads of aircraft on display.
Tickets are great value for money, even put on a nice Easter hunt for the kids. Great cafe onsite parking is also free. Would highly recommend visiting the spitefire museum over the car park.

Went here as part of a weekend away. I am very interested so it was good to see the displays and the aircraft. It would be good as an educational trip too. Topped it off by having a go in the Spitfire Simulator on the Spitfire and Hurricane side of the site. Parking is onsite but tight, especially if you turn up (as I did) in the middle of a school trip. There is coach parking also.

Visited the NAAFI Cafe which was part of the recent refurbishment of this brilliant local museum. Had a warm welcome and atmosphere is light and airy. Prices for food and drink were very reasonable. Very impressed and supported by local volunteers. Highly recommend both this and the museum for those who wish to learn more about the history of the former Manston airfield...
