Westbrook is a Victorian seaside resort on the Thanet peninsula in the southeast corner of England. It is the westernmost part of Margate and is part of the ribbon development of the north Kent coast. Westgate-on-Sea lies to the west.

Running through it is the main Canterbury Road where the Royal Sea Bathing Hospital stands, although the building is currently redeveloped into apartments. The row of shops opposite the hospital entrance includes Clarke and Crittenden. The Dog & Duck pub has been turned into offices for the Hospital Building site. Although a church still stands in the grounds, it is redundant and currently unused.^[when?]
