Dating back to the 14th century
The pub dates back to the 14th century, and it wears its age with pride. You’ll cross the threshold to authentic oak beams, inglenook fireplaces, and local history lining the walls - with fascinating old photographs of hop-pickers working in local fields.
There are local treasures to be found at the bar too - where an excellent selection of Shepherd Neame’s famous ales and lagers await - and in the kitchen, with locally sourced meat the star of the super Sunday roast.
The fine food and drink can be enjoyed both inside and out. Sink into one of the comfortable leather sofas in the bar, grab a table in the restaurant, or when the British weather obliges, venture out into the lovely patio garden.
Perfect for those balmy summer days, it’s a small corner of Kent’s ‘great outdoors’ - best enjoyed with an alfresco ale in hand.

Friends bought us here last night and we thoroughly enjoyed the atmosphere, the staff were all very friendly and the food was perfect. We did have to wait a while for our mains but we were told it was a new chef, it was definitely worth the wait. Wish we lived local to become regulars.
Lovely pub, with divine food - very good quality at decent prices close to London, and cute decor.
Our son and daughter-in-law's wedding was held here, the venue is beautiful, the staff were fantastic, the food was excellent, we had already had a lunchtime meal there as well which I have to say was just brilliant and we will be going back again
What an amazing place! Superbly decorated, wonderful atmosphere and exceptional welcome. The food was amazing, great range including vegetarian and vegan. Lovely garden. We went for our anniversary and had the most amazing time and were so glad we booked. Highly recommended and we will definitely be booking again. Thank you.
After trying many pubs around the local area and constantly being disappointed, We decided to come and try the carpenters arms from seeing it’s now under new management. I must say from being only open one week it is amazing!! The food is delicious and presented very well and the overall atmosphere great. The owners were always in the restaraunt talking to their customers at every single table making us and many others feel extremely welcome in their pub. The service was impeccable and there were no teething problems what so ever! The new owners have done an amazing job renovating the pub and I highly recommend coming for a meal or a drink here any time!! I was extremely impressed with everything here and cannot find a single fault with anything! Top marks to the new owners. Kent’s biggest hidden gem by far! If you’re looking for a good afternoon with good food then this is for you!
