Top Gastro Pubs of Kent - The Garden of England

Saved from dereliction and the threat of closure by a band of highly committed Stowting locals, the 300-year-old Tiger Inn has become a headlining country pub success story

The Hoodener's Horse - Ashford

Making quite a name for itself with its menu of great-value Mexican dishes

Froggies - Wye

What a reward awaits you at this charming pub restaurant hiding in such beautiful countryside

The Dog Inn - Wingham

This Grade II-listed, thirteenth-century village inn is a real Kentish charmer

The Coastguard - St Margaret's Bay

Gaze across the Straits of Dover from this spectacularly situated hostelry, which claims to be 'the closest English pub to France'. The views are certainly worth the trip, but the Coastguard also has a great deal more going for it.

Food is high on the agenda and the kitchen turns out memorable fish pies, potted prawns with ginger and lime, baked devilled crab and superb local cod in Hoegaarden beer batter ('the best,' according to one devotee..... )

The Mulberry Tree - Boughton Monchelsea

Chef Alan Irwin learned his trade with John Burton-Race

The Dove - Dargate

Chef Phillip MacGregor has recently taken over the stoves and early reports are promising to say the least

Dering Arms - Pluckley

One of the most impressive looking pubs in the south east originally constructed as a hunting lodge in the 1840s

The Poacher - Tudeley

The latest incarnation of this well-liked Kentish pub ushers in a new era, with cosmopolitan, contemporary design, a highly desirable fine-weather patio and a renewed emphasis on top-quality food and wine
