2AA ROSETTE AWARDED RESTAURANT & TASTE OF KENT WINNER 2018 & 2014

“The winner is Kent to its core, local everything from cider to the cows grazing in the surrounding land, served with top end personal service by staff whose knowledge of the local area was as if they were born and raised there. “Quite simply the best all round experience shouting Kent”

A special place to eat

Fabulous local produce, much of it grown / reared on site or nearby. Very interesting seasonal, changing menus. Difficult to choose as you want to try it all. Portion sizes just right and good value for the quality of the ingredients and the care in which it is presented.
Staff very friendly

AMAZING.

Beautiful pub. Friendly staff and fantastic food. I had the roast beef which was so tender and tasty. Everyone enjoyed their meal. Our waitress was brilliant. Very attentive and could answer all our questions. Always had a smile on her face. The rest of the staff also very friendly.
