Welcome to The Kentish Hare

Our award-winning Restaurant holds two AA Rosettes and was awarded with a Bib Gourmand in 2021. In 2016 we won best newcomer of the year in the Estrella Damm Top 50 Gastro Pubs and in 2023 jumped up the list to #5. The Kentish Hare is situated in the picturesque Kent village of Bidborough, set up and opened in May 2014 with the Tanner Brothers, James and Chris at the helm. James and Chris have assembled a great professional team focusing on delivering the best local food produced by local suppliers, complemented by a specially selected range of superb wines, beers and spirits and you will be assured of a warm welcome in delightful stylish surroundings with wonderful food and service.
