Situated at the north end of Deal's seafront, this pub has the feel of a real local's local.

Inside the long, carpeted bar offers a traditional atmosphere, with a friendly welcome, plenty of comfy seating and a log burner for the winter months.

At the back there's a pleasant sun-trap garden and at the front, a small seated area offering views over the sea.

Pizzas are available on Friday afternoon.

The pub may close early on quiet evenings.
