Bar and Restaurant

Ballard’s Bar and restaurant is named after James Ballard, the owner of the hotel when Charles Dickens was a frequent guest.

Morning coffees can be taken in our relaxing lounge area adjacent to our restaurant where lunch is available from 12.00 - 2.30 and can be served either inside overlooking the sea or al fresco on the terrace. In the evening our busy restaurant specialising in local seafood is open between 6.30 and 9.30 with bookings highly recommended.

Shepherd Neame’s famous Kentish Ales are on offer in the bars together with a wide range of wines from around the world.
