THE LOWDOWN

Tucked away in the peaceful landscape of Romney Marsh, The Woolpack Inn is a true countryside gem with over 600 years of history woven into its walls. Once a haven for smugglers, this characterful pub now welcomes guests with warm hospitality and hearty food.

Step inside to find hops draping from ancient wooden beams, a quarry-tiled bar adding rustic charm, and the large inglenook fireplace. Every corner of The Woolpack offers a relaxed and warm vibe. No wonder it’s a well-loved local.

In warmer months, the pub’s spacious garden is the perfect spot to unwind, overlooking open fields and big skies. It’s an idyllic setting for a lazy lunch, a quiet pint, or simply soaking up the Kentish countryside.

THE MENU

The Woolpack’s menu is rooted in a farm-to-table philosophy, using locally sourced ingredients to craft seasonal dishes full of character. The kitchen serves up a variety of small plates, from creamy mushroom bruschetta to crispy squid with chilli oil, as well as pub classics like Traditional Fish & Chips and grilled lamb rump with potato dauphinoise.

On Sundays, the inn truly comes into its own with roast sirloin, pork belly, and a delicious vegetable en croute, all served with classic trimmings and optional cauliflower cheese on the side.

During the week, the bar is the perfect place to enjoy one of the lunch specials, such as a Fish Finger or Steak & Rocket Ciabatta, classic toasties, or a Traditional Ploughman’s Board. Add in children’s options, indulgent desserts, and a strong selection of local cheeses, and you’ve got something for every appetite.

Whether you’re stopping in for a pint after a coastal walk or walk on the marshes, planning a Sunday roast by the fire, or just looking for a dog-friendly stop with proper character, The Woolpack Inn is a timeless treasure waiting to be discovered.
