The White Lion
About
Welcome to The White Lion, the heart‑beat of Tenterden’s historic high street where traditional British hospitality meets modern comfort. With 14 spacious bedrooms perched above the pub, guests can enjoy a full night’s rest while still being within arm’s reach of cozy communal spaces, a well‑stocked bar, and the ever‑lively main house. Each weekday the kitchen opens at 8 am to serve a local‑source breakfast, followed by a generous lunch menu from 12‑5 pm and a timeless Sunday roast from 5‑9 pm. The pub’s menu showcases classic comfort food – from fish & chips to wood‑fired pizza – and offers a selection of seasonal cocktails and craft beers. The Saddlery space serves as a flexible venue for live music, bingo, and private events, and the friendly, wheelchair‑accessible bar invites locals and visitors alike. Whether you’re heading to Kent’s countryside for a weekend break, a family outing, or a quick pint after a day of sightseeing, the White Lion promises a warm welcome, hearty meals, comfortable rooms, and an atmosphere of relaxed camaraderie.
