We're immensely proud to announce that our Branch Pub of the Year 2025 is The Hoptimist Taproom and Bar. We'd like to congratulate Danny on this fantastic achievement.

We'd also like to congratulate the other pubs that made it through to the finals: Berry Walmer, Carpenters Arms, Coldred; Just Reproach, Deal; Louis Armstrong, Dover and Staggered Inn, Dover.

The presentation will be held on Thursday, 3rd April at 5.00pm.

Our sincere thanks go out to all those CAMRA members who took the time and effort to visit and judge the six candidates.
